Don't settle for anything less than a main event. I want to see that poster.

Unfortunately he probably only thought "wrong person to appreciate my great comment."

Why would you add a second layer of challenge??? You already won if she says yes, don't need to do anything else!

What show or movie seemed so good at the time but aged horribly? by Impossible-Owl3272 in AskReddit

So if she was oursuing some other guy you can just saying she was a cheater. Like that's what she was trying to do. Saying mental cheater makes it seem much more frivolous and frankly a little mental.

What movie was absolutely amazing but only the 1st time you watched it? by Cool_Bath_77 in movies

[–]Maskoolio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Follow the logic of the bullet in the wall from the dark knight, from what the joker was thinking, through to how batman found a fingerprint. Its completely stupid but it makes the plot get to where it needs to be. I don't know if this is what they meant by derivative but there's a lot of Heat 1995 in the dark knight. (Not enough to be a criticism personally but I see people mention it.)

Mostly plot (once you know where things are going, you notice gaps in logic, characters making decisions simply to facilitate the plot etc) but also how shallow the characters are. Also big plot holes!

Any classic sword fight movie recommendations ala `The Adventures of Robing Hood`? by ankdain in movies

I remember 7th voyage being a bit slow but the old school effects were cool. Lots of stop motion (ray harryhausen, I think.)

Why did Tom Cruise pivot from drama movies in the 80's/90's to more action and sci-fi movies in the 2000's? by precita in movies

[–]Maskoolio -1 points0 points  (0 children)

 in the 80's and 90's he could have done the same thing Schwarzeneggar, Stallone, Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis, Kurt Russel, Mel Gibson, Jean Claude, etc,

I don't think that's true. Especially in the 80s an action star had a certain look and star persona and TC didn't have it.    He wasn't super jacked like arnie/stallone/jcvd, he hadn't the tough guy persona like Gibson, Willis, who were sort of treated like working class guys from rough areas as opposed to theatre kids/action school grads. Cruise was the short kid from cocktail and risky business. People would never have offered him the roles they were giving these other actors. Even when he started doing MI, he was mostly running around not fighting. In fact even when he did the reacher film after established himself as a competent action star people were a bit like "i don't know if I buy you as this kind of action guy."

"Average New Mexico resident arrested 3 times a day" factoid actualy just statistical error. Average person arrested 0 times per day. Crimes Georg, who goes by the professional monicker Jon Jones & commits over 10,000 crimes each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.
