View Full Version : The Media Game
Dudish dude 01-07-05, 07:25 AM Klackenhaud!! (means hello)
The rules are very simple: I will start off with the name of a piece of media (books, movies, video games, TV shows etc...), then the next person will take part of that name and make it into another piece of media and so on...
Example:
The Lord of the Rings>Lord of the Dance: "Lord" is the word that I used to make the name of a new media piece. Got it?
Let's begin with:
Enter the Matrix

King of Hearts
Starring: Alan Bates, Genevieve Bujold
Review Summary
This is a movie/parody of WWI set in a small town in France. Three soldiers are sent as an advance to evaluate conditions before the main force is sent. Hearing voices, the lead actor enter a building and finds a hospital floor full of patients. As he is proclaimed the King of Hearts, he realizes the place is an insane asylum and he flees, leaving the gate to the ward unlocked.
Following is a parody of inmates returning to the places and post they once occupied, or identified with. The movie revolves around this corporal (lead actor) attempting to save the townspeople from dying in this explosion of a German-set bomb. As they are all leaving the town, the people he wants to save stop at the edge of town and explain their refusal to leave by asking him where is it safer/crazier, at the asylum or out there, where man is killing man with bombs and bullets. They return to the asylum and the corporal disassembles the bomb and prevents the destruction of the town. In a military encounter before, British and German soldiers met in the center of the village and killed each other off, the futility of fighting wars exalted.
The British eventually take the town and the corporal is returned to the ranks. As the movie ends, you see the corporal walking down this street, shedding his rifle and backpack, then his cassock, shirt and pants, as he approaches the entrance gate to the asylum and goes in stark naked.
--George Patton, Resident King of Hearts Scholar
Now a cult favorite, “King of Hearts” will top the list on just about anyone's anti-war movie list! Alan Bates plays a Scottish soldier who walks into a small French town in
World War I and finds, to his amazement, that is has been abandoned, left to the inhabitants of the local insane asylum. Bates' job is to dismantle explosives set by
retreating German forces and the village is soon to be blown to bits. When he arrives, the inmates annoint him the King of Hearts. In a story of the madness of war, it is ironical that the inmates are the most rational of all. Bates falls in love with Genevieve Bujold (who plays a tightrope walker!), further adding to the irony. Look carefully beyond the subtitles(filmed in French); this is a film that is more than it seems, brilliantly conceived and
executed by Director Philippe de Broca.
--Bill Hobbs, Resident King of Hearts Scholar
