Christopher Teuma

Mighty Like A Rose is a great album.

Jasper Francisco

Uhh, how the fuck can drink tequila this early?

Benjamin Blattberg

This is a very minor point, but I think in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Tom Sawyer being a spy is sort of a nod to the later Tom Sawyer books: Tom Sawyer Abroad and Tom Sawyer, Detective.

Nick Benson

The Crow could almost be considered a hot Monster who fucks at least

Rad Rodge

I think the short answer is yes but the long answer is that 90s indie comics will eventually defeat Moore for the same reason

William Volny

Boooooooooriiiiiiiing.

Jordan Grimes

Moore is going to such a slog. There is not a fun movie in the bunch.

Nick Benson

Are we getting Moore just because everyone's a comic nerd here? Monster's woulda been better IMO

Andrew Spitzer

Why does everyone want to watch these garbage movies?

Nick Benson

Same, dawg

Harry Kolmer

I think Watchmen is genuinely good, yeah I said it. V for Vendetta is at least a 6 out of 10 and a pretty fun watch. LXG is a hoot and a half and the commentary for it would be a blast unquestionably. The only snooze at all is From Hell, and I'm sure there's plenty of fun Jack the ripper impressions that would get us through that

jahr

Great idea for quickly covering missed films in a series

Matthew Farkas

I know it's a bit late to start adding movies. But why isn't Constantine on the Alan Moore movies. I know it's not based on one of Moore's complete works but Moore did create John Constantine. And it would be a blast to cover

Oliver Scott

Tideland is my favourite live action film of all time. I wouldn’t call it a disaster

Oliver Scott

Please also include the two Alan Moore films that he approves, Show Pieces and the Show!

Jules

To be honest, I would be okay with either of these beating some of the more boring options on this bracket, but I'm still gonna go for Monsters Who Fuck all dayyy. And WITH the Mary Reilly option. I don't have to watch it! They have to watch it! And the bits would be amazing! *whispers* Mary Reilly...

ian

God I hope Moore doesn't win the whole thing. Boring ass bunch of junk

ian

I've seen Wolf, but I'm no longer on Earth

Good

Why does everything l like not win? 😂😂😂😂😂 it’s actually pretty fascinating.

TimeGentleman

I'm not voting on which movies I want to watch, I'm voting on which I most want to hear the two friends discuss. I think there'll be a lot more fun and interesting discussion generated by the Moore movies than one wild movie and two fairly bland ones. Maybe we can get Coppola on main, though - he's currently beating Guillermo Del Toro!

Rad Rodge

Even though the fellas do like Patrick Wilson, I feel like only Griffin would even want to engage with the Patrick Wilson performance hahah, David has said at least once that he just thinks Wilson is really mediocre in the movie and I bet there would not be a lot more elaboration on that than there would be on any of the other things that would bore the fellas

Rad Rodge

This sounds like a pretty satisfying solution actually

Janet feeney

Agree. Boring and a terrible accent from Julia.

Zexyshamen

Goodnight sweet prince, monsters who fuck

Will McLaren

Please sir, can I have some Moore?

Chandler Nunnally

What I'd really love is to see a Watchmen episode that isn't just shitting on the whole movie. If you both don't like it, find a guest that does. Ya know? Lots of people like that movie... BTW fuck the toxic Snyder fans

Aoife

Justice for monsters that ruck!

Caleab Wyant

I really need to watch these monsters fuck.

John W

Constantine may have been conceived by Moore, but Hellblazer (which the movie comes from) was a Peter Milligan and Jamie Delano joint (with a few others).

John W

That's like throwing at a batter's head a year after the incident that makes you mad at him

Jonathan Bryan

And so I remain the only man on earth that has seen Wolf.

Tomas Marinara

Looks like Sony's Hot Monsters Who Fuck is gonna lose, but if it does ever become a main feed choice don't bother with Mary Reilly. Very dull!

Anthony Regina

If these terrible movies win the whole thing they better at least commit to that.

Anthony Regina

I am sure he was a perfectly normal gentleman

Shanon

Did you guys know that everyone in Bram Stoker’s Dracula is stupid hot? What are we doing here?!?

Anthony Regina

The Alan Moore movies stink. And again, not in a fun to watch way. Wrong choice, folks!

John Halski

I don’t know if it’s “official”, but I think they’ve said (maybe just in passing) that they couldn’t get behind a series.

Non è un problema per noi

This is the wrong choice period

sheabobay

Maybe they can just watch that TRAILER of mary riley? With all the whispering ?

Rich

Are they officially NOT doing Gilliam?

John Halski

(Let me add that I think TIDELAND is at a minimum a fascinating disaster of a film, and even if BROTHERS GRIMM is a nothing of a movie and ZERO THEOREM is kind of just a “greatest hits” retread, the slow motion collapses of IMAGINARIUM and WHO KILLED DON QUIXOTE are fascinating tales onto themselves. So much that the latter produced a pretty decent documentary based just on the behind the scenes insanity.)

John Halski

Is there anything interesting to say about WATCHMAN other than the dossier bits about the versions that didn’t make it to screen? And if we really want to talk about that, could we just do Gilliam and accept that he lost his fastball after Fear and Loathing?

Rad Rodge

Yeeeesh

Rad Rodge

Unfortunately I think a miniseries based on 90s comics is not able to lose in a Blank Check Patreon vote, except maybe if it’s against another miniseries based on 90s comics

Alex Shaw

Voting moore because i want to hear them talking about Watchmen. Keep your sexy monsters, i want uncomfortable discussions about misogyny!

Jack

What the hell yall has nobody even LOOKED at these hot monsters

Susan Hoffa

Oh come on! We need the hot monsters!

PolterZeitgeist

[whispers] Mary Reilly

Rich

Yeah but that means The Cotton Club though

Rich

It's not worth it

Johnny Pomatto

"Mary Reilly" boring? More boring than "League" or "From Hell?" Heather Graham's Eliza Doolittle accent is only amusing for so long. And you know how sleepy Johnny Depp is on his best of days? Well imagine him high on opium!

Mikko Viinikka

Wasn't Constantine mentioned as part of the Moore series (on the preview podcast maybe)? That's still happening, right?

Josh Darby

Hot Monsters!!!! What are we doing here….. come on!!! I can’t think of a more boring collection of films than ones listed under the Alan Moore section

Adam Butterworth

Hot Monsters Who Fuck did not crawl out of their tombs and club Madame Webb to death with their electicity-powered arms to go out like this. The indignity of it!

Anthony Strand

What's the Alan Moore connection in GDT's filmography?

Wyatt Gray

Either one sounds like a good time for me. Voting Moore because I've never seen From Hell and have been meaning to check it out.

Brett

I can't decide.

Kawaiidebu

The real monsters are those of you voting for Alan Moore.

Rich

Vandal

Rich

Do we? Do we really need that?

Dodd Dodd

Will the team commit to watch Watchmen Ultimate Cut ? 😂😂

Constantinos Symeonides

Watchmen series on patreon?

Rich

Booo!

Chad Perry

This is the first match up in either bracket that I don’t want either to advance.

Ryan Howard

Once again, would love not to do Moore because I don't want to cover Watchmen, which DC stole from Moore/Gibbons and then vilified Moore for complaining about.

Noah Mittman

We NEED "Sean Connery on the LXG set" stories

Jon Jarocki

Coppola literally directed one of the hot monsters!

Dylan C

Made the mistake of only watching the ultimate cut for years so now whenever I see the theatrical version playing on tv or something everything just feels off and weirdly incomplete

Spencer Pommier

You know you can have Alan Moore and hot monsters if you go vote for Alan here then go to blankcheckpod.com and give Guillermo del Toro your vote

Jake

Props to Marie for finding those two pictures to put side by side

zero

Voted Alan Moore out of spite. For the results of the last round, not for Moore.

Brian Case

Anyone who wants to hear discussion of Mary Reilly should check out This Had Oscar Buzz's episode

Josh Rioux

You're making a terrible mistake

Alex Firer

Get Bendis back on to discuss LXG!!!

justn

FIRST!!

Spencer Pommier

Voted allenmore because interview with the vampire isn't there

HappyCroc

I'm reading LXG at the moment, it's really good! The film is terrible but I had the special edition DVD when I was a kid so have seen it loads, as well as the special features. Gimme some Moore!

Timothy Wilson

the “Monsters Who Fuck” title is better than the actual movies and potential pods. Moore all the way.

Miles Lemaire

Quis custodiet ipsos Sony’s Hot Monsters Who Fuck?

Del Lorenson

Decade of Leagues!

Harrison Cordle

ALAN MORE IS MAKING IT ALL THE WAY

Olivia Haidar

If Alan Moore wins I want to put it out there that they should cover the preposterously overlong Watchmen Ultimate Cut with all the animated segments

KevynOnVideo

I’m ambivalent on Mary Reilly but all in for SHMWF!

The Mad Jay Woman

I’d love to hear y’all talk about WOLF but I’m afraid I still have feelings about V FOR VENDETTA ripping off the ending of THREE AMIGOS that I still need to work through so…
