Re: Bad/stupid/improbable scenes of other wise good movies
Gunhandling in almost all movies is for crap. Dudes menace each other with uncocked single action pistols- NOTHING is gonna happen until you pull the hammer back, Mac... Idiots hold handguns one-handed palm down. You can't hit squat like that. Also, folks seen to spend their entire day holding a weapon with their finger on the trigger.
This is all fine when the characters are supposed to be dummies, but characters who are supposedly trained people do all this too. Also, people get hit with one 9mm bullet and fly backward across the room. Ive seen a guy after surgery who the cops said advanced on and beat the snot out of the shooter after taking 2 9mm hits in the torso. |

The scene in "Speed," an otherwise OK movie, where the bus actually gains altitude to get over the break in the freeway.

Re: Bad/stupid/improbable scenes of other wise good movies
TIN CUP-
2 things. First, when Costner bets McCord $100 he can hit it off the shitter and get it on the green. He doesn't get it on the green, but McCord pays off. McCord said this was caught, but was not corrected because of time and such. He also said they had already shot it several times because a)Costner sucks, and b) McCord kept putting his hand over his privates during the shot! (I thought they should've kept that in!) And second, the stupid ending. His whole deal is "I can hit this shot." ok ok. One of his half-dozen failed efforts carrys the water, lands on the green and rolls up to within a foot of the hole before rolling back off the front of the green into the water! ACK! But NO!! "I can hit the shot!" Give me a fxcking break! |

Re: Bad/stupid/improbable scenes of other wise good movies
Die Hard 2 – The whole premise of the movie was stupid. Gee, terrorists take over a Washington Airport. The planes only have 3 – 4 hours of fuel left. OK fly to Dallas, Miami, New York, Chicago, or any of another 100 airports No, we just keep circling until we run out of fuel and crash.
Castaway – the end. Tom Hanks has lost everything; he tries to deliver the one package that he didn’t open; no one is home. He’s driving out and a hot chick stops and flirts with him. As she drives away he realizes that she is the one with the package. He drives off in the other direction. Reality check – He’d have chased her down and hit it! Von Ryan’s Express - The Germans have destroyed the rails in front of the train that the prisoners are escaping on right in front of the last tunnel before freedom. There is a catwalk that runs around this mountain. The Germans are still flying around strafing the prisoners. They tell the prisoners to take the exposed catwalk around the mountain. The Germans blow it up. The prisoners then decide to clear and repair the tracks but they have to hurry because the German troop train is coming. Hello – just walk through the tunnel! Any bomb scene in almost any movie – just pull the blasting cap out of the charge moron. |
