Oh lord, what a crossover. I'd pay to see that.

For anyone who doesn't know, that's Alan Rickman playing Metatron in Dogma. See also this picture, which is still one of my favorites. Ever. Of any actor.

...I'll be in my bunk.

Got that bitch on VHS, motherfucker.

Oh, god, I just tried to re-watch the VHS last year and was horrified at the quality. Hilarious.

Rawr. Love that pic.

That's how he normally is. He hides the wings to play something other than a sexy silver-tongued angel.

"Oh, you mean besides the fiery entrance and the expansive wingspan?"

[–]Harashaw 0 points1 point ago

That's odd, I thought Draco was the one who usually got wings in bad fanfic.

Whenever I see anything quoted from Alan Rickman, I always read it in the low dreary depressing voice of Marvin.

I actually have been listening to the original BBC radio series of H2G2 (which, I didn't know this, inspired the books in the first place - I always assumed it was the other way around, but anyway), and Alan Rickman did a spot-on job in the movie, absolutely amazing. He sounds almost identical to the original radio Marvin.

0_o, I did not know that.

Is there someplace they're available online legally?

[–]potterarchyDeputy Head., Badger Mama 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Nothing that you can stream, that I can find, but Amazon does have all five parts in one CD set, if you're interested.

Cool, thanks. I'll check around if iTunes or something has a digital copy available.

Also, somehow end up on harry potter subreddit... talk about hitchiker's guide... I'm not very good at reddit I think.

This is the second time in two days, actually.

reddit = NERDS. NERDS EVERYWHERE.

Tell a person that you're the Metatron and they stare at you blankly. Mention something out of a Charlton Heston movie and suddenly everybody is a theology scholar.

I wish I could upvote this more than once. I've seen the movie many times but this gif still makes me giggle.

Also I would so love this to be true. Party full of drunken Death Eaters? Is there a footage anywhere? :D

just watched Dogma last night and seeing Alan Rickman made the movie a million times better.

"See? I'm as anatomically impaired as a Ken doll". I feel like this is probably why snape was so mad all the time...

Hah! You get a giant upvote because I just finished listening to Stephen Fry read the "Dark Lord Ascending" chapter.

anyone else notice the Metatron is dressed a lot like Potter?

and here and here

[–]NineteenthJester 1 point2 points ago

I heard the hoodies the angels wear in that movie are supposed to represent their missing halos.

[–]pariser 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

According to the Directors Cut, it wasn't to represent anything. The costume designer just decided that at all times the Angels would be wearing hoods.

[–]NineteenthJester 1 point2 points ago

Not according to IMDb.

[–]Leto_Atreides_II 1 point2 points ago

To be fair, there's a lot of things on there which aren't necessarily true for many many movies.

[–]pariser 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

My bad, just reporting the Directors Cut

[–]potterarchyDeputy Head., Badger Mama 5 points6 points ago

You always need to see Dogma again.
