It’s not necessarily “ripped off”. Directors, producers, and even actors frequently make references to other shows and movies that they appreciate or enjoy in their own works – in this case they probably said “Hey, I like Birds of Prey, and our main character has a similar Gothic feel, so let’s pay tribute to that fact and model our promotional image in the same way as Birds”.

birds of prey came first: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0312098/ and its logo was ripped off by underworld

You’re probably right. I just saw her in “Jack Brooks Monster Slayer” (very funny, btw) and she was hellishly annoying. Most of it was on purpose but still. Damn. She kept screeching so loudly you couldn’t understand her. Black Canary indeed.

When Nicky started saying “woman with short dark hair, lowcut shirt, long trench coat, pale skin and gun in hand stands on a cliff of a building set against the moon over a dark quiet town.” I was thinking either The Matrix, or another Johnny Depp movie :p

Not that anyone’s going to get this far down, but also looks like Nightmare Before Christmas …

Actually, the first time you saw Keira Knightly, you probably would say she looked like grandma.
Grandma’s way hot.

Urk. “Since” not “sense”. I can’t brain today. I have the dumb.

If that’s the case, then it’s not “semantics fail”, so much as “sense of humor fail”. Which is ironic, sense you seem to be the one displaying the most humorlessness.

It’s called being a killjoy. You needn’t be hilarious, you should just shut up and appreciate the humor.

Incidentally no you don’t always say them in the order of what came first. If your grandma looked like Keira Knightley you’d probably say “Grandma looks like Keira Knightley” not “Keira Knightley looks like Grandma”.

Semantics fail. Appreciating Humor Fail. Killjoy WIN.

Oh the irony!
I watched “Underworld” for the 1st time last night, then saw this today. =D
Not THAT bad–would rather watch this mindless fluff than, say, “Hellsing” (mmm, pleather)–but still stupid.

It’s not that the show looks like the movie, it’s that the PUBLICITY SHOT for the show looks like the PUBLICITY SHOT for the movie.

I feel better now.

I didn’t say your comment wasn’t funny. I said you are unable to recognize what is funny.

So, apparently, you fail at understanding as well.

BoP was far better than Underworld, but Beckinsale edges out Ashley Scott in hotness by about… 35 percent or so…

The only reason BoP was retarded was Rachel Skarsten. I am SOFA KING glad that woman-child’s career is now over.

Can’t be entirely sure of that considering how bloody long it takes a movie to get from “let’s make a movie” to “here’s the boxed product.” But yeah.

Wow. So my comment–which was never meant to be funny, merely observational–wasn’t funny.

My apologies. I shall endeavor to be only hilarious in the future.

I could do the same thing with every paperback in the Romance aisle of the book store. Funny though.

Well, what I am saying is that you are really focusing too much on the grammar, and too little on the fact that it’s kinda funny. (Which is funny in and of itself.)

You fail at humor. Please go away.

My point was, if two things look similar, you usually say that whichever came second looks like the one that came first. I’ve never seen anyone look at a parent and say, “Wow, you look just like your child.”

I was at a software store today and had a real life TLL experience. Someone had stocked the Warcraft Expansion “Wrath of the Lich King” right next to the LOTR expansion “Rise of the Witch King”.

The artwork is as similar as the name. A character in grotesque armor brandishes a serrated sword in a similar manner.

they’re like twins seperated at birth except one was kinda cool but the other was retarted and no one wanted to be her friend, but she still got two sequals and the cool one got dropped.
