One of the great Twitter hashtags of this week is #KidNoir. Gail Simone, Kurt Busiek, and others have been coming up with punny titles for noir-genre kids movies.
Comics writer Gail Simone started the game with this tweet:
James And The Giant Stacy Keach. #KidNoir

And Kurt Busiek picked up the thread:
Go, Reservoir Dog, Go #KidNoir

It pretty much snowballs from there:
