The caption for the current image says that scene only looks scary out of context, but I personally don't even agree with that. Would a picture from the quicksand scene work any better? If this doesn't look clear enough, I can post a screencap from the Blu-Ray (maybe one with a closeup of the person sinking?) later today.

The current pic's fuzziness makes it a poor choice. I like the suggestion.

Antiport it. Plus, it's more appropriate to the page's length than the current.

Suggestion could be brighter, but it is certainly an improvement. And, damn, that aspect ratio!

I think the current image is pretty great, and prefer improving on it (and deleting the caption) instead:


Wait, in context, it is not an example?

[up] I haven't seen the film so I have no idea.

I move that the caption be deleted. It makes the image worse, not better.

Aye, cull it.

I believe the context of that shot is that he's yelling "CHARGE!" or the equivalent.

If the image is pulled because of that, fine. If it's left there we don't need the caption calling attention to the fact that it's out of context.

Apparently not. Clock's up; locking up. No action is to be taken based on this thread, although I will swap in rodney's version as it's better quality.
