Nothing like stealing a nearly 3000 year old premise for a movie. It’s Lysistrata for the 21st century.

Spike Lee’s “Chiraq” must not have lost enough money, so Hollywood had to make a white version.

Two such loser movies based on an anti-gun version of Lysistrata so quickly in succession makes my tinfoil hat vibrate.

Dang, you beat me with the Lysistrata reference. I thought having struggled though ENGL 3000 finally paid off.
