SpyD Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 Basic Romantic Comedy: Girl and guy are shown doing their own, separate things. They meet, by chance, and things start to take off. Everything is great for a while, and we get shown a nice montage of dates (baseball game, ice skating, Christmas time) and then, one of them fucks up. They break up, and then the person that fucks up tries to get the guy/girl back, but they arent having it. Then, right before the person ships off (to africa, the moon, new jersey) they realize that they're meant for each other, get back together. the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Huxtable. Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 ^yes, except take out the "get the guy/girl back" and just put "get the girl back." because in all romance movies it's always the guy that's wrong and fucks up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mauler5150 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 So true, so true. Or what about the action movie cliche where the hero is always trying to save the kidnapped child/woman etc, yet the baddy never seems to harm the person they kidnap for some reason.

ElectricitySucks Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 the answer is simple. if movies were realistic, they wouldn't be interesting. obviously its possible to be TOO unrealistic, but you get the point. agreed.. its a shame that we've lowered our iq's to accept most of the claims as reality. hollywood is about enterainment, not cinema. check out movies by micheal heneke. extremely realistic, and fucking amazing.

El Mamerro Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I don't understand computers in movies. They all have a billion fucking things going on and every single little bit of movement or interaction makes a distinct blip and a noise. And the cops' facial recognition software always has to stream pictures of all the possible matches at high speed next to the bad guy's face, and then intermitently flashes a big red MATCH FOUND when it finishes. Of course, both the faces streaming by and the MATCH FOUND banner have their accompanying blips and noises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVERWURST* Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Did you see this movie? No white person saves the day. They should make a soap opera about African leaders - you have like 40 countries all being run like "yo I just won the lottery and I got gunz, tanks with rimz, and a UN vote!" The mystical black person saving the white person is a better example of racism Theo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunt double Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 why is it that in fight scenes between evil henchmen and the hero of a movie, the henchmen line up and take turns, one by one, attacking the main hero character. rather than just rushing him as a group? that always pisses me off.

Mauler5150 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 how come in the movie 'The Protector' the fight in the church results in one guy fighting the hero one at a time, then when they are defeated they disappear into thin air. Not a generalisation, but it made me wonder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shitting Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 yeah, the jurisdiction argument is in every episode of the x-files. its ridiculous also, when someone is being chased through a crowd and then the chaser loses them, looks around, sees them again, grabs them from behind, spins them around saying 'i've got you' and then its the wrong person.

shitting Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 also, cops or amateur sleuths are looking over a blurry photograph or video still on a computer and then ask 'can you enhance that' to the geek computer guy, who saying nothing, proceeds to press two buttons and the blurry image turns uber sharp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mystical black person saving the white person is a better example of racism Theo. yeah, i saw it. did you forget about that white scottish doctor who was the co-star... coming over giving idi amin all of this advice, as idi amin was portrayed as being a bumbling idiot that couldn't make simple decisions? he also worked in hospitals all around uganda "saving" blacks, including "saving" idi amin when he got injured. also, all of the black women wanted this white "hero". the story was fictional and contrived in the minds of the white writers by the way -- there was no such doctor that existed. true story (not the movie).

*PROTOCOL* Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 howcome like 75% of black comedy movies seem like they are written by white people trying to have a finger on the pulse of black culture and come off so horribly written that they border on offensive/racist?

Theo Huxtable. Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 you can generally tell which "black comedies" are written by blacks and which are written by whites. like, scary movie 1 & 2 were cool, but 3 and 4 was watered-down nonsense. along with their offshoots "date movie" and "epic movie."

*PROTOCOL* Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I like how all the crime shows like CSI have the evidence montage that seems all fast paced and exciting, when in reality would be weeks of dull, boring lab work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Huxtable. Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 what about when an intelligence agency getting some hooligan vigilante out of prison or out of the woodwork to do their dirty work. they're like "this man has been in prison for 15 years but he's the only man powerful and fast enough to stop this threat. he's the only man that understands the alien invaders better than we do. look at his track record: served in the navy seals. single-handedly destroyed al-qaeda. can fire a shot from 2 miles and hit a man dead between the eyes. flew to an unknown planet in a top secret mission and assasinated various alien leaders. he's dangerous, he's risky, but he's the only hope we've got."
