I know that complaining about Love Actually is really old hat right now, but this is the irrational movie thread so let me be irrational.

One of the stories is about step-dad widower Daniel who is taking care of his orphaned step-son Sam. Sam asks Daniel for love advice and Daniel tells him about his own love for Sam's late mother (Daniel's late wife). What does he say? Does he talk about how just a few words or a smile from Sam's mother could turn the worst day into the best? How she brightened up a room just by being there? How he and Sam's mother made each other the best versions of themselves, or how he dreamed of holding her hand is his own shaky hand when they were both in their eighties and still together?

No, he describes his love for her as having sex with her constantly in every room of the house. Love is when loving. You can tell this movie was written by a man.

I do like the part where Neeson says he was quite taken with her and gives a little side eye to the camera.

I like Man of Steel, easily one of the top 5 movies where Superman is played by Henry Cavill, but Cavill’s expression 90% of the film is like “annoyingly bored” or “smug” no matter the circumstances

That's his expression for all his superman films. I think Snyder hired a hitman and told him he'd kill cavill's family if he didn't act like a sad sack for being the most powerful being on the planet.

It's incredibly frustrating because the dude can act very well but snyder doesn't understand pretty things like plot or story or how to actually make a good movie.

In Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (1997) approximately 3 and a half minutes in when Sindel tells Kitana that she (Kitana) will die and that it’s too bad, on the last two words one of her teeth is CGI blurred out for some reason and I get annoyed every time I watch Mortal Kombat: (Annihilation) which is about once a month or so.

Someone help me out with this. People keep saying that the asteroid attack in Starship Troopers was done by the humans because propaganda and it's crazy to assume the bugs would be capable of that. When they talk about this they never mention the scene where the asteroid (or is that a different one??) pops out of hyperspace (or something) and almost smashes a troopers starship.

What's the point in smashing the starship with no witnesses, they could just make it disappear in other ways and then claim the bugs did it if they're just gonna lie for propaganda. Or was it an accidental almost hit because the genius pilot that barely dodged the asteroid that they couldn't have planned for also changed their route which they couldn't have planned for so that there was a witness for the asteroid being real that they couldn't have planned for?? Why bother launching the asteroid from so far away if nobody is gonna see it, or why even use a real asteroid at all anyway and not just nuke Buenos Aires from orbit and claim it was an asteroid (which some people online claim happened but also doesn't quite fit with the phone call scene)



So call me crazy but the following points kind of made sense to me when I saw it as a kid and on still do rewatching the movie later:

we have no reason to believe the humans can send poo poo into hyperspace (or something) without bigass engines the asteroid doesn't have

there are psi powers in this setting

the bugs are more advanced than thought

there are bugs that are giant brains

:tinfoil:

I don't know guys, one of the two options sounds a lot more likely to me and it doesn't seem to be one that's popular online

on rewatching the scene I suppose it's never stated that the asteroid was in hyperspace (or something) and I may have misinterpreted what's shown on the screens? But it very much looks like it to me, and for it to suddenly show up and then be so slow would be hard to explain otherwise.

You do realize when Rico says he’s from Buenos Aires and to kill them all, he’s not talking about the bugs?
