Was watching "The Day after Tomorrow" recently and there's this scene where the protagonist and a bunch of people take shelter in a library. There is a big fireplace and they decide to burn books in order to get warm. There's even a guy who protests about book burning and the protagonist is all like "do you want to freeze to death"?

Meanwhile, in the very same library there are tons of easily breakable wooden chairs and other wooden furniture. They could keep that fireplace burning for weeks without throwing a single book (except maybe one for kindling).

Not to mention paper sucks for fireplace fuel.

Because libraries = books, right? If we have to use something in any way while in a library, it has to be books.

I felt so dumb watching this.

What about another Emmerich masterpiece Independence Day? Where they can fly to an alien mothership, hack its o/s and install a virus on it?

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Legolas surfing the shield in Two Towers was pretty dumb now that I think about it.

Mutt swinging through the vines with the monkeys in Indiana Jones & the Crystal Skull was pretty bad too.

I love how it's basically a part of Spidey legacy now. Loved the Into the Spider-Verse callback and finger snaps by SM PS4 spidey.

Wasnt there a line in the movie that all the technological advances since the 50's were reverse engineered from the crashed ship?

Haha. I like the gif. Indeed no comeback from me you win, I’ve forgotten the line to be honest.

Alien 3 were the warden steadfastly refuses to believe Ripley and the existence of Aliens, even though the previous movie makes it clear humans have had contact with extra terrestrials.

Pretty much any movie with an over-abundance of special effects tend to create ridiculously over the top action segments.

In a film about city sized flying discs that remain stable a half mile up in some zero gravity field which shoot a beam off energy at a single point to take out miles of city, hmm. I don't think Emmerichs films are to be pulled apart with logic, they're dumb shut your brain off, fun.

 

[John2290]

All the cut scenes from No country for old men along with all the scenes in the later third of the film. I've never seen a film go from being so great to being so shit, so utterly quickly.

 

[The Hamburglar]

Vader telling that officer not to choke on his ambition while force choking him in rogue one.

might as well said “ay ohhh” right after. Disney are shit

 

[mcz117chief]

Not even the board of Weyland Yutani (publically anyway, they still weren't sure on the details) or the marines believed Ripley and suddenly some warden from the biggest backwater imaginable is supposed to be "in the know"? You for real, mate?

The predator......the whole movie tbh

 

[poppabk]

The ending of Law Abiding Citizen where the supremely meticulous planner with infinite resources and a mastery of technology doesn't have even a webcam set-up to protect his secret base of operations.
Pisses me off to this day and ruined what was a half decent movie.

 

[SlimySnake]

Prometheus, the entire movie.

That was so typical to me, yes, was actually interesting film until then. They just had to have a "happy" ending.

The Prometheus snake scene is pretty awful. Tainted the entire movie.

Princess Leia surviving being blasted into space and then flying back.

Definitely the most unrealistic scene in the space wizard saga

 

[Fbh]

The opening crawl of Raise of Skywalker when it's like "oh by the way Palpatine is back....and we announced it on Fortnite!!!!"

Prometheus, the entire movie.

Oh come on.....the opening scene with scenery shots and the nice music was great

Exactly! All of the sudden she became the most powerful Jedi ever.

Using the force to pull yourself inside in an environment where any amount of inertia applied to an object will cause it to head in the direction it's pushed forever because there's literally no resistance? Definitely more powerful than any other Jedi.

I meant more surviving being blasted out into space from and exploding spaceship and surviving in space itself.

Keep in mind this is a franchise that has explosions and sound in space.

We can go back and forth on this and even claim she had some force bubble around her. They can literally make up anything with the force and the last set of movies shows that. I know why they did what they did but that is another discussion altogether.

EDIT: A more realistic view of survival in space is in Event Horizon when he is outside for about 30-60 seconds without a suit.

The OT is proof they can make up anything with the force, every subsequent film featured new force powers not in existence in the prior film(s).

Most of Black Panther, but especially the scene at the end with the whole bury me in the ocean thing. Also the confrontation in the throne room. Fuck that film.
