cloudchamber posted:That happens in a lot of films if images that are supposed to flash by quickly linger on the screen too long Wasn't that to prevent epileptic people from getting seizures? Z-Magic posted:In the new Star Trek where the hell did Nero get his ship from? He was on a mining mission yet his ship has enough weaponry to take down the entire starfleet fleet (minus the enterprise). Why does a mining ship have to be so well armed? They had mining lazers that could cut through solid rock. I think it would be easy to cut ships apart.

Solid Oak Acorn posted:Since people have brought up The Matrix sequels, there was the final fight with Neo and Agent Smith in the last one, in the rain. They did their bullet time thing and had Smith punching through the rain, but the rain was long strips of water, instead of drops. Maybe it was deliberate, like RillAkBea said, it is computer generated, but it just bugged me. I think it was supposed to show the "corruption" of the Matrix by making it look like code instead of water. That's why the place was green to show that the matrix is falling apart due to Smith.

Heres Hank posted:Just how fast ARE agents? CAM seemed to have enough time for a catch phrase before plugging one in the head. I think they can change the speed of time itself. This is why they were able to dodge them before. I think they just got caught with their pants down at that moment. Gram-O-Phone posted:

I watch a lot of kids film but there is always one thing I don't get. It's the "I known you for my entire life and I know you would never do it, but I still think you did [thing]!Therefore I will ignore you and will not belive a single thing from you." What's the reasoning behind that? of course it takes around the entire film for the Best friend/Love interest to realise that he/she didn't do it. Then they say "I knew you didn't do it all along!" Then why didn't you belive him/her in the first place? poo poo like this just annoy me. It's a terrible "plot device" and is loving everywhere in kids films. Just pick a kids film and you might see what I mean.

RagnarokAngel posted:Plot convienance. This has been mentioned but I really hate the similar "Hero technically did do X, but it was either an accident or a misunderstanding". And the conflict only exists because the Hero is too much of a pussy to sit everyone down for 5 minutes and explain why exactly this happened. The problem is no-one wants to listen in the first place. They just brush the Hero off.

God Mode posted:At the end of Contact, when everyone is giving Jodie Foster poo poo about making it all up, why didn't they just send another person through the machine immediately to verify her story? Isn't that the most scientifically rigorous thing to do? I think it was due to the fact that a multi trillion project that have failed and public view on it was probably on the rocks after that. Didn't the North American one get blown up by a terrorist? How did the terrorist get there in the first palce?

Hell the entire "Will they? or won't they?" is irritating. It's ok for a while but when you base an entire movie/tv show about it then it's silly as hell.

Dr_Amazing posted:In "Return of Jafar" the Aladdin sequel, the genie comes back and sings a song about friendship. One of the lines is something about friends cheering you up when you are blue. Aladdin points out that the genie is always blue. In the very next line the genie has changed shape and is green. Aladdin took that statement literally. The Genie was on about being sad and stuff. That's why he changed color. You could also see it like the Genie is sad but tries to do his best to please everyone. I watched the original Charlie and the chocolate Factory and I noted a lot of things which I really want answered: 1.Why did the 4 grandparents suddenly became bedridden 20 years ago? They must have been around 50 years old when they went into that bed. 2.How the hell does the man with the scar know where and who to talk to? if we are to belive that it was live TV, how does he suddenly appear from thing air? is he a reporter? Or there is many clones of him?(that is my belief) 3.Why didn't anyone call Willy Wonka out about the Oompa Loopas being his slaves? They are not getting paid! 4.How much is Charlie mum being paid in the first place? My mum said that being a Washing Lady didn't pay well. But they are living on cabbage water soup! If Charlie can buy 2 chocolate bars with a 50p coin he find in the drains then why can't she afford anything but cabbage? Oh yeah Grandpa is a total dick. Spent the last 20 years Bedridden due to your legs aching? You say that I can't walk? gently caress that poo poo I'm gonna start dancing around the room! Hell I don't even need that cane!  He also spends all of his money on tobacco he could have been giving to his daughter.

Stoatbringer posted:What always bugged me about T4 (although it's a fairly common theme in lots of action movies) was when Skynet had lured Conner into their base at the end. He's basically trapped, and he's their greatest enemy. I think it was a,"You are so weak compared to me that I am not going to bother killing you outright. No, I am going to make you suffer first." Or it could be a "gently caress it, let see how this thing works.". The Terminator was the latest model I think. It's really a terrible way of saying "Hey guys Arnie is in this film! Go watch it!" In terms of the Superheros and it's effect on "normals" stuff, I think it depends on the film itself. Doesn't Kick-rear end have realistic superheros? (not that I seen it though.)

Synonamess Botch posted:Jurassic Park - at the beginning when Hammond shows Grant and Sattler the brachiosaur for the first time and they're shocked and amazed. How do you sneak up on something that big? Wouldn't you hear or feel it walking? Grant had to force Sattler to turn her head to see it, do these people have zero peripheral vision? If I see a centipede out of the corner of my eye I will notice it. Then they turn their heads slightly and there's like 20 other dinosaurs down by a watering hole. What the gently caress were they looking at, are plants really that fascinating? What you see is what they see. Was the Brachiosuar in the frame?

MrJacobs posted:Why didn't the magic people contact the british military? I'm sure a sniper can fire a bullet faster than an incantation can be spoken and take down a few wizards before they know what the gently caress just happened. Would you belive someone who came in and said "Hey there is this dude who trying to kill everyone with magic and poo poo. Can you help us kill him?"

I think that was the point. After all, they shoot a whole bunch of unarmed people because they are part of the Nazi regime. They are not nice people at all. Then again, none of the main Characters was nice.
