Remember, remember! The fifth of November, The Gunpowder treason and plot; I know of no reason Why the Gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot! Guy Fawkes and his companions Did the scheme contrive, To blow the King and Parliament All up alive. Threescore barrels, laid below, To prove old England's overthrow. But, by God's providence, him they catch, With a dark lantern, lighting a match! A stick and a stake For King James's sake! If you won't give me one, I'll take two, The better for me, And the worse for you. A rope, a rope, to hang the Pope, A penn'orth of cheese to choke him, A pint of beer to wash it down, And a jolly good fire to burn him. Holloa, boys! holloa, boys! make the bells ring! Holloa, boys! holloa boys! God save the King! Hip, hip, hooor-r-r-ray!

Moore is the epitome of why Death of the Author exists.
He creates pretty compelling stories with a lot of great and nuanced writing, but his own opinions on it and what you should take from it are so fucking awful that its mindnumbing.
I really enjoyed his Take on monsters as avengers. Not awake enough to remember the actual name or the movie with Sean Connery and an awesome car.
