Kingsman was pretty cool. The church is one of the baddest-ass scenes in comic book movie history. Even if you've never seen the movie and have no interest, watch Fau's clip, above.

Title: Re: TDMMC Comic Book Movie Madness: Non-Marvel #11 play-in-round Post by: Sunstroke on March 30, 2020, 08:46:11 am I had no idea at all that Road to Perdition came from a comic book. Love the movie, seen it at least a dozen times, and consider the musical score for that movie to be top-10 all-time among all movies. Easy vote for me...
