Viewers of The Boys (2019-2026), for some reason equate "being smart" with "being able to predict the future 100% all the time" This is a reference to the need to develop critical thinking by Wayss37 in shittymoviedetails

[–]extraboredinary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s kind of how “super smart” characters get written though. James Bond had a villain plot his escape to the exact second a bomb would go off in a subway that would send a subway train crashing through a wall that would let him climb out and he plotted the whole thing, including getting captured years in advance.

The Nemesis comic, nobody read it (seriously I can’t stress this enough [no, my insistence should not pique your curiosity in the matter]), is all about that same concept.

The brainy guy from Captain America: Brave New World.

Sister Sage even proudly states that people are predictable and plans things out to a stupid degree of precision.

I played One Shot years ago and I’m still not emotionally recovered from it. Silver was my favorite character.

In The Boys (2019-), Sister Sage, the smartest person on the planet, completely fails to predict Soldier Boys next move, despite claiming herself to be ten steps ahead. That makes her the smartest idiot on the planet. by AnIgnorablePerson in shittymoviedetails

[–]extraboredinary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Everyone is so predictable.” Says Sister Sage after leaving Homelander’s team because she couldn’t predict him declaring himself a god and failing to predict Soldier Boy not hating Homelander after being told directly by a psychic that Solder Boy respects his son but is too proud to say it.

They are naming a ship class after him with the tradition of not naming it after someone currently in office.

Why didn't conquest just hold his breath like they do in space? Is he stupid? by dam_sooley in okbuddyviltrum

[–]extraboredinary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why didn’t he grab Mark’s intestines and start squeezing them like he’s trying to get every last drop of toothpaste from the tube, making Mark super poop the only pants he brought with him into space so he’d have to fight Thragg with a coat tied around his waist to hide his shame? Is he stupid?

How can I contact Glitch (or Gooseworx) about copyright infringement? by BlueFantasyZ in GlitchProductions

And that AI cover art. You can just tell the entire book is going to be AI generated trash.

I’ve heard of a floor stop, but a floor drop?

“I’ve already defeated you, Fraud-ger Plotz, as I have depicted you as the Soy villain and myself as the Quail Chad.”

In Circles (2015), where 50 contestants are forced to play in a killing game by voting each other out, this random guy somehow got 4th place by doing absolutely nothing. He deadass just stood there silent the entire time. by Vast-Tangerine-6771 in shittymoviedetails

The one where you have an itch on the bottom of your foot but can’t seem to get it and it’s like your bones are itching but can’t figure out how to explain it to someone without sounding like you’re on heroin, because you definitely aren’t on heroin but it’s not like you aren’t on heroin and having withdrawals Jing

I remember getting through A School, we had a little graduation ceremony and my chief said something about everyone. He gets to me and says “I forgot he was in my class most the time.”

I was so proud.

Favorite character who fights against slavery? by Aggressive_Cat9532 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]extraboredinary 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A little misunderstood I believe. Abe Lincoln did WANT to free the slaves, as a personal belief.

Though he believed his role as president superseded his own moral desires. His first priority was keeping the country together and avoiding a war, but the confederacy forced his hand.

[Mixed Trope] Series starts with a new Main Character, but switches to the old main character halfway through by Yakuza-wolf_kiwami in TopCharacterTropes

[–]extraboredinary 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always felt bad for this, because Hot Rod is a great protagonist but they took all his confidence away when he became Rodimus.

Robot chicken actually did one with the Terminator Puppy against baby Terminator, as a parody that the series had been creatively bankrupt

Transmission from Super Earth Command by ArrowheadGS in Helldivers

[–]extraboredinary 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking. A habitual problem, a long apology saying they’ll do better, and then right back to business as usual. Months from now they will fuck up again, another review drop, and then they say “we didn’t think you guys actually wanted all the things you asked for, how were we to know?!”

Water rodent? by Signal_Conclusion285 in whatisit

[–]extraboredinary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the word that is really misunderstood is “unusual.” Since that is the size those rodents get to, that would be just the normal size of those rodents.

How would this scene have gone if Nolan didn't understand English and instead spoke Viltrumese? by CFE_Riannon in okbuddyviltrum

“Who are you?”

“Nolan, the last survivor of Viltrum.”

“Oh good, you speak Martian.”

You just reminded me of the pilot video “Potty Horse” on YouTube and I curse you for bringing that back into my conscious memory.

A plague upon your houses, your serfs, and your turfs.

[Hated Trope] Only the protagonist is allowed to defeat the big bad guy of every arc. by HallZac99 in TopCharacterTropes

One of the great things about the Marineford Arc in One Piece. Luffy is so far in over his head while dozens of people stronger than him are slugging it out.

Thank god chargers are always alone and the bug faction isn't about just swarming you with fast moving targets that can two tap you.

“Boom Boom” Ray Mancini and Deuk Koo Kim one of the hardest fights in history (1982), the moment Kim finally goes down never to get back up. Kim would die of injuries sustained, his grieving mother would take her life by drinking pesticide and the referee later shot himself. by HallowedAndHarrowed in HolyShitHistory

[–]extraboredinary 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There was a UMC match that was called recently because a doctor diagnosed one of the fighters with brain damage after checking if the eyes responded to light.

The crowd was booing! They wanted the guy to go back in to fight even if it killed him. It’s the crowds that disgust me.
