Jurasic park 3- at the end the marines or something land on the island with tanks and lots of troops with guns, and then they never kill any dinosaurs. [/ QUOTE ] Obviously, that wasn't a good movie . . . but that cracked me up too. They're a freaking army and they don't kill ONE goddamn dinosaur with their BFGs.

The guy in the movie is trying to take off, accelerating and most likely has the air brakes or whatever turned off to minimize drag. When the plane then is going straight down with the engine accelerating I think it would be hard for someone to fall faster. Swede

Re: Bad/stupid/improbable scenes of other wise good movies
he's trying to take off? by going straight down? maybe i'm not understanding the situation, but anytime an airplane moves through air, the wind moving around the wings generates lift, that pushes up on the wings. even if the plane were just falling straight down, i'd imagine the wings would still generate a huge amount of drag compared the the small dude on motorcycle.

NOTE: MAN ON FIRE SPOILER
[ QUOTE ]
Rounders - seriously...how mad would you have to be to turn down a horny-for-you Famke Janssen? I mean...I don't even think it's possible for me to get so distracted that I would not go straight into the bedroom. Also...the read at the judges' game is simply ridiculous. [/ QUOTE ] I liked how he turned her down, he knows he could have her whenever now, why when he's frustrated about his best friend's betrayal and he just got dumped by his long term lady? It's just some clam, he's got good TV and booze anyway. [ QUOTE ] Man on Fire - the one scene that keeps this movie from greatness is the end scene. Without giving it away, let's just say that I think there was a better way to handle it, rather than just getting into the car...why not on the bridge? [/ QUOTE ] *stop reading if you haven't seen this movie* There's a ton of reasons I can imagine why they'd bring him back to their boss rather than just shoot him on a bridge, one of which being I doubt they'd want to risk f'ing up the agreement, since it's clear they were interested in a legitimate trade. It's more likely the boss wanted to torture and/or kill him himself, regardless, they can commit a murder in public or in privacy. I don't think the ending was flawed at all. [ QUOTE ] Revenge of the Sith - Wait a minute...Count Dooku is able to hold his own against Yoda but Anakin beheads him in under a minute now? So...is Anakin already better than Yoda? I highly doubt it. [/ QUOTE ] I agree, maybe Dooku had gas. [ QUOTE ] *Also...I love'em, but at some point, size would become an issue for Rocky...especially against Drago. Sly is, at most, 5' 10", and Dolph Lundgren is 6' 4" or more...six inches of difference in a boxing match is almost ludicrous to overcome. [/ QUOTE ] Isn't this the entire point of the movie?

Re: Bad/stupid/improbable scenes of other wise good movies
The whole movie sucks, but this part really pissed me off. When Dennis Quaid is tretching through the snow with his 2 associates, they end up walking over a mall atrium. The guy in the back cracks the glass, and falls in, but since they are all tied together when Quaid's character slams his ice-pick into the ground to stop them from going anywhere.
Real quick: a) they are walking ON TOP OF A [censored] MALL. That's how much snow there is. b) they are on the atrium of the mall c) Dennis Quaid uses his ice-pick. The only possible thing he could've put his icepick into is a panel of glass. So, apparently you can hold yourself up on glass that shatters from the weight of one person by piercing it with an ice pick.
