And I don’t just mean what happens when you play the bread scene backwards. Heh. Heh. Stupid hungry children. I mean, he’s not exactly the most moral of heroes. He freely admits to stealing literally everything. Maybe that loaf of bread was that vendor’s livelihood! What’s stopping […]

With all my heart.  With this statement, I don’t mean that I love the movies, which, don’t get me wrong, I do.
