Non Serviam posted:I was going to post about the same thing. I kept waiting for a plot to unfold. Like in Asylum, it was for the inmates to escape. In Murder House, to survive the house and the ghosts. Coven, try to survive because even the people you should be friends with will loving axe you. But Freak Show was just flat. And sorry, the whole two-headed girl issue "Will we be separated? OH I want my own life let's get separated!" was stupid as poo poo. The Brody twins weren't two heads on a single loving body. You couldn't just cut the girls in half Solomon style without them both dying. But that seemed to be the only drive for that character. How can a show about freaks be so loving boring?

Side Effects was pretty awful for a handful of reasons (mainly, it was dull, predictable, and completely devoid of anything useful to say about the psychiatry/medication conversation), but there's a pretty ridiculous aspect that makes sense at first but not when you know all the facts. So Channing Tatum's wife is supposedly sleepwalking and preparing dinner. Of course, secretly, she's not sleeping, just faking it. When Tatum walks into the kitchen to talk to her, she gently stabs him in the stomach a couple times. When we see it, it makes kinda-sense, since she's "asleep." But imagine that scenario from her actually-awake mindset. She has one chance to kill her husband and get away with it. Why do it when he can see you, and why aim for his stomach? The chances of Tatum getting one stab wound and then wrestling the knife away or just running out of there is way too high to risk. Hell, why pretend to even be asleep? If he's going to get killed, then nobody has to see her pretend to sleep. She could have just waited for him to be sitting on the couch and then stabbed him in back of the neck, and then TOLD people she was asleep (which she did anyway). Or, even better, why not just kill him when he was asleep in bed? The movie itself cited a previous incident where that happened and the person was not convicted. It's a great example of how something looks plausible until you have the rest of the facts, and then becomes completely ridiculous.

Without having seen the movie in question, if I was in the murderer's position, I would take that path as the 'failed to completely murder the person' state is "oops I didn't mean it" as opposed to "overpowered/outfought, maybe stabbed, certainly arrested". Though killing him while he was asleep in bed would be safer, it also makes the alibi less believable.

Maybe, except you wouldn't likely get another try at it if you mucked it up. He wouldn't let himself be put in a similar situation again, that's for sure.

I watched Oblivion the other day and felt irrationally irritated at how perfectly turned out that red headed woman was. Posh new dress every day, silver high heels, false eye lashes. gently caress that, if I worked on a deserted planet I would be slobbing about my work station in my pants, comedy bear feet slippers and a dressing gown. Tom Cruise may not approve, but gently caress it, he'd get used to it in the end.

In Snowpiercer there's a line that bugged me after I watched it, maybe it's been brought up before: "You're the first human being to walk the length of this train." What? Bullshit. Even if we assume Wilfred has for whatever reason never traversed the length of his train fetish wet dream, we see no less than three people in the engine room who had been to the tail section previously and were there when Curtis walked in.

Other than the kids, who else was at the back of the car though? Did the measuring tape girl come into the last car? It was a very flawed movie but I liked it.

Ryoshi posted:In Snowpiercer there's a line that bugged me after I watched it, maybe it's been brought up before: Curtis was the only one who's been at the way way back, like literally the rear end end of the train, not just the front of the back/last train car, the rest of the people who were there only went as far as the door to the next cars, and the kids were carried. So I guess it does actually make sense, it's still not that great of a line for the reasons you mentioned.

OK, maybe you are using "all your brain" which is bullshit science to begin with but let's pretend for now. You don't magically know all languages now, that data wasn't in your brain yet. If she picked it up super fast sure, but knowing it immediately is dumb. Why would having more brain or whatever suddenly let you effect things outside your own body? You didn't grow a fuckin gravity generating gland or something. That scene where she's using her friend's laptop is really bad too because there's no loving way you'd get that much poo poo happening that fast at once on a computer (and running well!), especially while still only using a keyboard to control it.

You could argue I GUESS that she had been there for some period of time beforehand and the drugs gave her perfect memory recall so MAYBE I GUESS that explains the Chinese but I dunno whatever it's a dumb movie.
