Canon Law and Planet 9 From Outer Space

I have to say, I found this delightful. Sacred Heart Major Seminary canonist Edward Peters presents the footnotes to the 1917 Code of Canon Law in terms of the worst movie of all time– or more precisely, the best worst movie of all time: Planet 9 From Outer Space.

And Jody Bottum fears we lawyers aren’t intellectuals.

I wish someone would do this for the contract law–maybe the Battle of the Forms in UCC 2-207. But what movie should be used?
