They imprisoned him. They tortured him. They tried to forget about him. They didn't plan on him getting out. This Summer, Jason Statham is turning a paradise into hell. OMELAS No one's walking away from this.

You can't make an Omelas without breaking a few legs.

This goes into my mental file of jokes that are fucking brilliant but too niche and convoluted to ever explain to anyone.

You know what? This would be fire.

I was just thinking it was a shame the Omelas-posting was so short lived. Glad I was wrong.

Statham should play Hiro Portagonist if a Snow Crash movie is ever made. The entire time I read that book, I imagined Statham with a mohawk.

This is the only good Omelas rewrite.
Go Jason Statham!

I am pretty sure I would be in line for this opening weekend.

Jason Statham movies are just onscreen ass queefs

Awesome, explosive, toxically masculine ass queefs, thank you very much.

I do believe you have won a portion of the internet today.

This is definitely the film that will be made once the story hits the public domain

I thought you’re writing about Julian Assange for a second there…

Calling it now, in the hope the whole thing is a bad anagram joke: It will include a scene with Jason Statham disguised as a bellydancer decapitating everyone around him.

…I’d watch that movie.

Oh my god. I would unironically watch this.
