And wings.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

They're really taking liberties with the historical accuracy of Julius Caesar, aren't they?

Yes. Julius Caesar, son of Aphrodite.
I have a very hard time turning off my brain for Xena, especially when one episode features the Trojan War and the next features Caesar.

Well, I was just watching for Ares anyway (weep, weep, Kevin Smith is gone).

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Julius Caesar, son of Aphrodite.
Say again? Have these people seen busts of ole Julius? A funnier-looking guy I can't think of in antiquity, except maybe Nero. I mean, Narcissus son of Aphrodite, I could buy with appropriate hand-waving, or Julius Caesar bizarro love-child of Jupiter and Mars.
Also, wings? Since when do Roman emperors get wings??

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's a joke, Nutty. Karl Urban played both ol' Jules and Cupid.

But see, as Cupid he was blond, and as Caesar, a brunet. So you could tell them apart, I guess. Wings notwithstanding.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I think Karl Urban is doomed to a career of very bad and/or strange hair.

His hair was fine in Bourne, wasn't it?
