Caption Discussion/Repair Thread:

Yes; cite this page of the thread in the edit reason.

EDIT: Or the previous since this is the page topper.

I find the caption for Aguirre, the Wrath of God to be nonindicative. A better suggestion would be one of its taglines: "A breathtaking journey into the heart of darkness." or "On this river, God never finished his creation."

Done. I went ahead and left a commented-out note underneath the caption as well.

Does anyone else think the caption on Creator.Michael B Jordan makes too many obscure references?^note I've never heard the Richard Pryor routine this apparently spoofs, and none of the many people who skipped Box Office Bomb Fant4stic have really seen him play Johnny Storm. At the least, it has too many links.

Yeah, I'd cull that.

I changed "Purple Horseshoes" on One Game for the Price of Two to "Orange Stars".

The caption for Holiday-Appropriate Weather originally linked to The Weather Girls per the Image Pickin' thread, but was removed. Was that change permitted?

The person who removed it, Drope, did not leave an edit reason, so they probably didn't discuss it anywhere.

Some people are just really opposed to leaving Red Links, even though it's explicitly encouraged. I'd restore it.

Yeah, go ahead and restore that.

Restored the caption and tagged it.

For Alcoholic Parent:

"Are you drunk?" "What are you, my life coach?"

Calling the crowner; the caption's added and tagged on A-Team Firing.

I've hooked a combined crowner for Furry Reminder and High-Voltage Death. If no options for either page get consensus, that'll be a default "no caption for now" vote.

We didn't really talk about captions for UncannyValley.Music; I think something like "Black Hole Sun, won't you come, and wash that smile away" would work.

My image suggestion of Diamond Dallas Page for RealMenWearPink.Professional Wrestling has been recently approved and posted to the page. However, I couldn't think of an appropriate caption and no one else did either.

Any suggestions?

Calling the crowner. None of the suggestions for Furry Reminder are in the green. The winner's in and tagged on High-Voltage Death...not gonna lie, I'm a little disappointed about that one.

I'm going to hook a new crowner shortly.

EDIT: The new crowner's done.

Double-post to post suggestions for Improvised Golem for a later crowner:

• No one's gloomy or complaining while the flatware's entertaining!
• "I'd destroy it, but that's what Bilbo Baggins hates."
• He's quite a dish.
• "I wonder if he'll put himself in the dishwasher."
• They say you can make Golems out of everything but the kitchen sink. Well, that last part ain't true anymore.

Caption for Law & Order: "Are you feeling sad? Thinking about someone you're never gonna see again? Mom, Dad, boyfriend? No, huh? Someone else, someone who you would give anything to see just one more time. You're gonna cry his name out at some point. They always do."

Not bad, but it feels a little long to me.

Maybe this?

"Are you feeling sad? Thinking about someone you're never gonna see again?...You're gonna cry his name out at some point. They always do."

Better.

I'll go with that.

Could you update the title to reflect the crowner?

Done.

I like the second suggestion for Monster.Law And Order.
