So the COs of heavily armed Blackhawk helicopters are portrayed as massive pussies and or misgendered non-combat capable wimps in this film? Would you consider that an accurate account

Jim Carrey is playing such a high energy role in Dumb & Dumber and yet it is great seeing him get zero response for something, even if it is a 10 second scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=praFGD51ih8 Mierenneuker fucked around with this message at 11:58 on Feb 2, 2019 |

I’m watching Die Hard 3 and one of my favorite little moments is John McClane in the aqueduct with the construction worker who knows a million little odd facts, which is such a weird category of guy that I’ve met a million times.

On Basic Instinct, I interviewed Verhoeven years back, and he essentially said "Yeah, I lied to Sharon and told her nobody would be able to see her pussy. She was so mad! HAHAHAHA!" (He was a great interview, probably the most enthusiastic person I've ever met. About half the recording was taken up with maniacal laughter.)

One of my favorite little oddities in the Die Hard franchise is in the first film. When you first see Ellis, he's just finished snorting cocaine off of a desk. Later, when he's trying to entice John to give up over the walkie-talkie, there's a notable bit of attention given to a can of Coca-Cola being poured into a glass. It wasn't until my umpteenth viewing that I realized that the terrorists likely asked Ellis if he wanted anything, he said "coke," and due to a mistranslation error they thought he meant the soft drink.

I always enjoyed "I wanna dance!" in Dazed and Confused. Its such a tonal shift of what seems like a serious scene and yeah its a joke but the scene cuts so quickly that you never see their reaction.

Die Hard owns because it's both a textbook action movie, and also a movie where every decision made by every character makes sense and both tells us about them and is informed by who they are. I rewatched it recently, and there's never a cheat where someone just does something to advance the plot. It's a really impressive film.

There's literally one single moment in Die Hard that for years I thought didn't make sense or advance the story, and it's when McClane tries to use the building's phones, finds he's been cut off, and then looks out of the window to see a semi-naked woman in a neighbouring building. I bought the script years later (before online resources like Drew's were a thing), and found out it's described as something like "he sees a woman casually talking on a phone. It all looks so easy" and realised the intent of the shot. Whether that's my failing for not seeing what they were suggesting or the movie's for not making it entirely clear, I'm still not sure.

John McClane is repeatedly, but very subtly, getting distracted by women who aren’t his wife. There’s that, the flight attendants the start, and the dirty picture (which I love just as a subtle landmark to help you figure out where he’s gone).

Another fave is in the movie C.H.U.D. where Daniel Stern is about to call the cops on the bad guys so their hired goon follows him out to pay phone and... https://youtu.be/TqrEiPvJM0E ... eats his quarter and just stares him down. Great weird part in a movie basically made of them.

I’m watching The Matrix thanks to an interesting discussion in the genchat, I never noticed the scene when they get to The Oracle’s apartment, Morpheus nods to a blind man sitting on a bench and the blind man nods back.

My low-key favorite oddity in The Matrix trilogy is in Reloaded, where the "upgraded" agents are introduced, because they are literally physical upgrades over their predecessors. The Agents in the first film are all fairly nondescript, meek office drone-looking nobodies. The upgraded Agents are all 6'5 and built like brick shithouses that are clogged with creatine. It's an awesome example of the comic book logic that runs underneath The Matrix as a whole.

An elder Buddhist monk paints the deck of a floating shrine with a sutra. His apprentice is to carve the characters to soothe their troubled soul. The monk uses a cat's tail to perform the painting. The prayer is long, yet the cat is unconcerned, calmly accepting the role it plays in the process.
