A monolith brings a bad omen;
HAL 9000 reads lips, then one Bowman
causes HAL to regress;
and then—what a mess!—
looks like Bowman's in someone's abdomen!

Anyone fancy two for the price of one?

Marlene sang of a Berlin post-blitz
Resurrected from rubble and splits;
Lilo jumped on a table
And shattered the fable
By kicking the vision to bits.

A terrorist who fled the scene is
Drawn to a bar-singing Venus.
But the guy is dismayed
When he tries to get laid
And discovers the girl has DELETED BECAUSE OF SPOILER

The number of posts on this thread is already well past 101 (as in Dalmatians), but will we make it to Pedro's "2001"?'

Ooops! Wrong thread! (I'm referring to the contents of a post I deleted, since I haven't found a way of deleting the post itself.)

We might make Pedro's 2001 but if we want to finish by 2012 we better hurry.

By the way, Brian, I assume you're working on Dalmatians even as I write.

Marion and Brian–– we might just make it to 2001 in 2012.

David R.'s Titanic is awesome. Here's a remake. (I confess I never watched it, beware!)

It's the dullest of trips transoceanic
til an iceberg destroys the Titanic,
then it sinks sentimental,
and it's not coincidental:
that's exactly the moment I panic.

When a lunatic cleric dismembers
his brethren, and some burn to embers,
Brother William finds clues
while young Adso screws,
and now hers is the face he remembers.
