  @Fire_and_Ice_Returns, thank you. Let's hope this one has legs. Most of my threads will get about 20 comments and then die.

  Just randomly found an early gem from George Lucas. Again, it's a case of using the symmetry of the architecture shown:
  
  And "what we got here, is a failure to communicate":

  I was intending to visit Kurosawa on this, but the two Droids don't really belong, do they?

  All of Kurosawa work is splendid, but "Ran" is perfect for this thread.

  I think there's a lot of symmetry in House of Cards.

  No, of course, but the photo was with the one from Kurosawa's Hidden Fortress. SW is a sort of remake of that film ;)
