There is not a single one of these movies I would not see, and I fucking hate Forrest Gump. But the lamp version? Yeah. That, I would see.

Those comics ones are quite well done, but they failed to have the Lamp appearing in the upper left corner in the place of The Hulk and later the Thing.

Oh why didn't they change the Dirty Dancing slogan to "Have the time of your lamp"?

Does it have to be a lamp? I'd watch Saturday Light Fever. Or A Chandelier and a Gentleman.

When you need a lamp that can deliver a subtle, but powerful performance, nothing beats this one.

Sorry, all these smell of the lamp to me.
