    I'm pretty sure he is actually referring to the incident where Moses struck a rock with his rod rather than asking for water to come forth from it, as he had been carefully instructed. That wasn't about idol worship so much as just irritation.

    That's it. The result: Moses gets to see the Promised Land, but not actually go there.

    In America, we'd call those diapers. Is that what the British call nappies?

    Yeah they’re more like diapers than underpants.

    It should be noted that writer/director John Boorman has admitted that he was so drugged up during the making of the movie that not even he understands what he was trying for.

    I suspect Boorman was far from the only one on that set who was on drugs.

    On that subject, I didn't think Big Hero 6 was a great movie.

    That's an opinion that's not remotely unpopular.

    Of all the movies that define time and place...

    If you asked me to pick one movie that defines the 1980s...

    That movie would be...

    It certainly managed to make Superman believably vulnerable without resorting to kryptonite, which I found interesting.

    I've always loved it, and I never had a problem understanding it (don't know what that says about me!) . I know he developed it after spending a lot of time working on Lord of the Rings, as I understand it the Eternals were like the Elves. But this society has become sick and it creates Zed to destroy it. The Matrix owes a lot to Zardoz.
