When he drops it on the helicarrier it's technically being lifted. It should drag the whole ship down.

That's precisely the argument Stark uses when the Vision can lift it... If just being a machine was enough to lift it, Iron Man should be able to, it's not like he's the one doing the lifting, the suit is.

Grendels Dad posted:Early in Demolition Man there's a brief scene where Edgar Friendly and his goons worry that they don't have enough men to ambush some transporter for supplies. The ambush turns out to be them just bum-rushing a car outside a restaurant, and it would have gone off without a hitch if it weren't for John Spartan. That scene where Friendly worries irritates me, unless it's supposed to make him out to be an idiot. I always wondered why all the guns in the Museum Of Violence were not only fully operational but also loaded with ammo. Seems very unsafe.

My rationally irritating movie thing is people trying to make logical sense out of comic book movie plots. They just don't make any sense if you think about them even just a little bit. They are comic books. They just make up poo poo as they go along.

In Trailer Park Boys what happened to Randy and Lucy's baby? I assume they put the kid at the end of season 7 because they didn't expect to do any more but he shows up in a movie and then disappears never to be mentioned again. Also what about J-Roc's kids from the same season? In season 9 he has a different kid he didn't know about that raps. I just don't think the writers of Trailer Park Boys really thought through their canon

To me it seems like they always expected to end the series, then they got more episodes and didn't know how to write for this new stuff, so they just thought 'gently caress it'. TPB is a clusterfuck like that.

In the new season of Game of Thrones ep4 How they build up the unsullied to be this awesome fighting force, and then they go down like punks to the sons of the harpy. The one ambush where it was 2 unsullied getting mobbed from literally all directions was ok, but the hallway fight were the numbers seemed pretty even was stupid. The unsullied even have leather armour, while the sons have stupid masks and thats it. Before guns or crossbows real trained soldiers would kill the poo poo out of everyone else. Like the Nika Rebellion in Rome, a few hundred actual soldiers kill about 30,000 rioters. I'm sure the Sons of the Harpy was really good and killing upety slaves, but I think that would be a different skill set in fighting someone who has spent literal years training.

thespaceinvader posted:That's precisely the argument Stark uses when the Vision can lift it... Yeah, Vision is a sentient being who is actively choosing to pick up Mjolnir, which presumably means that the hammer's magic "judges" his worthiness like any other being. The Helicarrier, or an elevator, or whatever else, is basically just a floor that happens to be moving - there's no intent to it.

My mythology knowledge may be hazy but from what I remember: Zeus is an emotionally immature rapist, Poseidon wad a wrathful and incredibly territorial rear end in a top hat but Hades was always looked down on for hanging out with dead folk and being an usher and got bent out of shape and resented it. Well, he coerced some women to serve him and struck unfair deals but didn't do a lot of murders and rapes. Now, Heaphestus, that is a brilliant and tragic character.

Hephaestus tried to rape Athena once, but he went off prematurely. Disgusted, she wiped the semen off her clothes and threw it to the ground, where it impregnated Gaia, the Earth.

A really awesome movie that spawned a really awesome television show: The American President. The bachelor president is dating an environmental lobbyist played by Annette Benning. POTUS has a new crime bill he's counting on for his reelection, while Benning is pushing for a sweeping new environmental bill. Meanwhile, Richard Dreyfuss is playing the evil Republican challenger to the White House who accuses the POTUS of allowing his girlfriend (a lobbyist and slightly extreme activist) to influence policy. The POTUS finally gets the votes he needs to pass the crime bill, but only in exchange for burying the environmental bill. Benning dumps him, he has a change of heart, and kills the crime bill in favor of the environmental bill. My problem with this is that is totally validates what Dreyfuss has been accusing him of all along; allowing his girlfriend to influence public policy.

Mine is with Gladiator in which the Emperor Commodus is the villain. My complaint is that they actually didn't make him enough of a crazy, delusional, power mad rear end in a top hat. The real Commodus was real fuckin' crazy and he had 12 years to make sure everyone knew it.

And then like 10 years later it just loving appears next to like Saturn or something.

Maybe small streets means they have to further divide themselves, but there should basically never be less than 100 unsullied together at a time. And yeah they're supposed to be elite spartan-esque warriors but they all died like bitches to a bunch of weak rebelling nobles' sons. WTF?
