MacReady Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) First of all, James Gunn listed five perfect movies. They were: Back to the Future Chinatown Rashomon Back to the Future The Thing So y'all can suck it. But that's not about that. It's about people giving him a hard time for a "plot hole" in Back to the Future. I swear to God one of my biggest complaints with fans is their incessant need to find plot holes. 99.999999% of alleged plot holes aren't plot holes, they're unintelligent and non-creative morons whining. The alleged plot hole is why Marty's parents don't recognize Marty. Chris Pratt was much more kind in his response than I would have been, but people are too stupid to realize that over 20 years of their son growing, they might have noticed an eerie resemblance to the kid they knew 20-30 years ago, but how many people honestly even remember anyone they went to school with, much less anyone they went to school with for a week, 20-30 years later? 99.9999% of plot holes can be explained if you just have a tiny bit of imagination. I just Googled biggest plot holes. Shawshank Redemption - Poster being on there perfectly after Andy crawls through the tunnel. Pretty sure he could have hardened the back of the poster with readily available items from a prison and used an adhesive and let the air flow suck the adhesive to the wall. Obi-Wan taking Luke to Tattooine being stupid because Darth Vader would surely look on his home planet. Seriously? Luke has family on Tattooine, it probably is literally the last place Anakin would look, and Anakin didn't even know his children survived. The Dark Knight Rises - Apparently a complaint is that the cops went from the sewer to looking all cleaned up too quickly. If you were trapped in a sewer for 5 months what is the first thing you would do? Personally, I'd take a ****ing shower and change my ****ing clothes. Another one is that Bruce Wayne is too recognizable to just pretend to be dead. There are 10 billion examples of celebrities talking about how people say, "You look just like..." That's not a plot hole. A billionaire dying would last in someone's mind for a day and then they'd forget all about him. A Quiet Place - People have a problem with how they laid the sand down in the first place like are you ****ing kidding me? And the biggest one is Titanic. Jack could have fit on the door. Are you all literally braindead? He got on there and the ****ing door started sinking. Like how braindead are you to think that's a plot hole? TL;DR Any plot hole you think there is there probably isn't. Try me. Edited April 23, 2020 by Outpost31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Prince Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 What’s worse about BTTF is that there was no photo of Marty from when he went back in time. He wasn’t in the yearbook, there’s no cell phones, facebooks. I’m sure it would be easy to forget the face of someone you haven’t seen in 30 years. Sure he could look similar and they might remember a small detail of how he looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally no regard for the safety of the extras, stunt people, the set, etc. So Dope. Bad Boys II not even trying to hide ripping that scene off.

thrILL! Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Extraction has a script full of cliched dialogue but the action is crazy. Hemsworth going full Bourne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KManX89 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I just got done rewatching Bumblebee on Blu-Ray and am once again reminded why this is far and away the best live-action Transformers movie ever and why the reigns to the franchise should permanently be given to Travis Knight. Not only is the action coherently shot and the story actually focusing on the Transformers, but this is the only live-action Transformers movie apart from maybe the first that made me feel anything for the human characters as well. I loved the struggles between Charlie's personal life and keeping Bumblebee by her side and the growth of her and Bumblebee's characters throughout the film. Some of the cheesy humor we've come to expect is still there, but all-in-all, it's a more-than-suitable compromise and a genuinely entertaining film.

How did nobody in Madison Square Garden notice a large glowing energy force enter Patrick Ewing’s body while he was on the court in Space Jam?

Malfatron Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) I watched Space Jam for the first time ever a month ago or so I thought it would be horrible, but I enjoyed it quite a bit Edited April 25, 2020 by Malfatron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Cena is the worst casting in all 6 Transformers movies. He makes DwayneJohnson look like DDL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Watched Extraction tonight. I'd love to see Hemsworth in more brutal action roles, it was a lot of fun. Movie itself had a few issues, but all in all I enjoyed it. I'd say a solid B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
