So I guess it's not "too soon" to exploit...er, see these images.

Word verification: apigp - seems appropriate.
I probably only go the movie theaters about twice a year now. Hollywood, keep up the good work, and you can cut down to once a year, then never!
Could this image really be any more desecrated than it already has been?
