The Hall of Heroes was named in both Marvel's adaption of TFTM and the script itself, I believe. So I don't know if a Ladybird-exclusive reference is necessary.

(I'll have to double-check the Marvel adaption ref.) --Monzo 05:13, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

I doublechecked. It's indeed named in the Marvel adaptation.--ItsWalky 06:11, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Markers

Some of this is way, way too speculative for me. I didn't want to take an axe to it - since neither administrator is around - but I am nonetheless registering my stance.

(Plus, where's Gladiaron?) (Oh. There he is.)--Monzo 10:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Which part is too speculative? That those are markers? They're IDENTICAL to the markers in Starscream's Ghost, down the art-deco pattern around the eternal flame. -Derik 11:02, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

No. In specific, I am referring the parts about Floron and Dery. I am also not sure if one of those statues is supposed to be "Mortron" or "Murdron" - I had decided on Murdron, myself, but I admit the text is very blurry. The classic monster thing also only goes so far when it breaks down at Morton/Murdron, who couldn't have been based on a Halo race twenty years ago.
I admit the mythic thing is speculation-- but they're giant statues at the Hall of heroes-- but unliek the other giant statues, they're not funeral markers. They're non-funeral-marker statues.
What else makes sense? If they were great historical warriors used as outer guardians- why not make them funeral markers too? The only reason I can think of they wouldn't be markers is if they never existed or existed and never died.-Derik 11:54, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
The speculation on one side being leaders and the other being warriors is also effectively baseless. --Monzo 11:25, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
That's fair, I've deleted it from the article.
My original reason for the inclusion was the heil hitler from the second figure on the right side- and a side of military guys (Ghengis Kahn, Marcus Augustus etc) seems like an aesthetically-pleasing counterpoint to the movie monsters-- that I freely admit it's entirely speculation.
Hey, can you figure out what Mortron is supposed to be? I'm not even 1005 sure I got the name right, I got that after crossing my eyes a few times.
That looks like more like "Murkeron" than "Mortron" to me. --KilMichaelMcC 15:36, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Looks like Murderon to me. There's definitely a "E" before the "R". Interrobang 18:27, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Am I the only one who sees something wrong with claiming that Mortron was based on a monster from a HALO? - Dark T Zeratul 19:30, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

No. That's insane. I changed it to Warrior for the time being. If there's something more appropriate, we can change it later. He's got a whip and a gun, so maybe if there were a generic term for Indiana Jones... --ItsWalky 19:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
He has a whip?-Derik 13:58, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Well, you said he has a lean whip-like thing. And oh dear lord I just noticed the comma splices. --ItsWalky 16:31, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
