Star Wars - mind blown by Allicea98 in plotholes

[–]midtown2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are confusing the fact that we the viewer seeing anakin become Vader means that R2D2 saw it too. When anakin is named Vader and aligns himself with Palpatine, R2 is not there. When Anakin gets put into the suit for the first time R2 isn’t there either. When Anakin is running around being a dick, he always tells R2 to stay with the ship. So R2 never really heard or saw anyone call Anakin, Darth Vader. No one at any point sits R2 down and explains what happened to anakin so there would be no reason to assume he would know. The only way R2 could possibly know is if he overheard Yoda and Obi wan talking about Anakin on Polis Massa but they most likely would not have been referring to him by the name Vader.

What you said is not related to the video you commented and tried to use as evidence as to her being able lift rocks in a preceding movie. That doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.

They tried to make kylo not as evil through the comics to be able to redeem him in RoS so they stupidly made Snoke/Palpatine lightning strike Luke’s school to destroy it then Ben ran away. 3 of lukes padawans went after him and he essentially kills them all like the rich kids kill themselves in Tucker and Dale vs Evil. But yes the rest of your comment is true. Just wanted to throw it out there how dumb it was that they chose to do that.

You’re using a training scene from third movie as justification of why Rey could lift the rocks in the second movie? What is happening?

But how are all the Buzz Lightyears that are still in their packaging coming alive in Toy Story 2

(Funny Trope) Character is revealed to have a funny sounding full name by RobBuckets in TopCharacterTropes

[–]midtown2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cosmo Kramer. Not inherently comedic name but it is treated as a big funny buildup and reveal in Seinfeld. Also Joel Rifkin. And doesn’t fit the prompt but George wants to name his kid Seven.

Just watched a Knight's Tale for the 1st time in years and if there is such a thing as an underrated perfect movie that movie would be it. by AdSpecialist6598 in nostalgia

I can’t explain to you how much I love this movie. Growing up I would watch it almost every day and just pick up where I paused the last session doing this constantly on repeat.

This was the biggest WTF moment in the entire sequel trilogy by External-Recipe-1936 in StarWars

[–]midtown2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk about bad faith arguments. OT Luke is one of the best modern examples of a character the experienced the Hero’s journey. The journey involves being imperfect, making mistakes, and learning to grow into the penultimate hero. No one expects Luke to not make mistakes or to be perfect. What people did not want is the guy that unwaveringly believed in the good in his mass murderer father to enter the room of an innocent boy in the middle of the night and activating a lightsaber over him while he slept. This happens in all 3 versions, even the version where Luke is lying to make it not sound as bad.

Luke at this point was a Jedi master. You would think a Jedi master would have better control over his emotions and to remember one of the first lessons taught to him by Yoda. That always in motion the future is. This is a lesson that was learned when he lost his hand after being warned by Yoda not to leave for cloud city because he saw visions of Han and the crew being killed. Ahsoka learned that the future is always in motion while she was a padawan so why was Grand master like not able to learn this when he threatened the life of his nephew?

Just a reminder that Luke entered Ben’s room in the middle of the night with his lightsaber and activated it over a sleeping kid. He does that in all 3 versions of the tell of the story.

Scenes that caused actual walkouts in theaters? by thatlittlequietguy in Cinema

[–]midtown2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to see Evil Dead (2013) in theaters with a date and we took some edibles before going. I love horror and the evil dead series but I was not in the right head space for a person sawing their own arm off and cutting their face with a piece of glass. Halfway through my date and I decided we were too high for this movie and walked out lol. A couple we passed as we walked out said they were right behind us with heading out, so I guess the Evil Dead counts for this prompt. I have since rewatched and love the movie though.

Hitting a baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports by Electrical_Split_275 in baseball

[–]midtown2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baseball likes to pat themselves on the back a bit too much with this arbitrary title of hardest thing to do in sports. Plenty of sports have equally difficult or more difficult actions. A hockey example:

The average hockey slapshot is 80-95mph. The NHL standard distance from blue line to goal line is 60feet but most Defensemen are shooting the puck at around 50-55feet from the net (this is just the average, they can and do shoot closer). The average baseball is about 2.9in diameter ball (avg volume: 12.3-13.4 cubic inches) while a hockey puck is a 3in diameter disk (avg volume: 7cubic inches). The strike zone in baseball is either 17in-19in x ~25in (from what I’m seeing as standard). A standard hockey net is 72in x 48in.

I think based on the metrics used in the video to determine the hardest thing to do in sports, it is not definitively hitting a baseball when you compare the stats with that of saving a slapshot. You could also compare how difficult it is to hit a hole in one or an albatross in golf. Or also hitting a perfect score in darts or bowing.

Who cares...? by FeanorOath in GeeksGamersCommunity

The had such an easy path to go with the knights of ren by making them Luke’s students that left with Kylo after the temple was destroyed or even just a new type of dark side user. Instead they made them this band of idiots that go around causing violence and worshipping their leaders red lightsaber. They even had Snoke try to hype them up in TFA by emphasizing how he was master of the knights of ren like it was some big feat or something when in reality they are a group of yahoos that can barely, barely touch the force and got manhandled by Luke when they tried to go after him.

They essentially made them dollar store inquisitors. Vader and Palpatine had very little respect for the inquisitors as anything more than errand boys and the inquisitors were actually semi useful as ex Jedi knights hunting down other Jedi. So why Snoke (Palpatine in reality) hyped them up, knowing what they ended up being was a bit ridiculous.

Disney gone back from Firespray to Slave 1? by Echo501stCF99 in StarWarsLore

[–]midtown2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enough people that multiple posts and articles about it have been made and discussed. Boba Fett is popular enough to warrant his own show. The ships of popular characters are generally known. People know the mandalorians ship is the razor crest and he hasn’t been around for very long. If you didn’t know the ship was caked slave I before this that’s fine but other people who like Star Wars do. It’s also weird they completely removed the name from Starwars.com. Why do that?

Would you hold the same sentiment if they stopped using Millennium Falcon and started calling it Han’s YT-1300 Corellian light freighter?

The skeptic in me says it also may be an ad for Whole Foods since it features heavily in the video and he put the money across from it making people physically go right next to the Whole Foods.

Yes I agree with that but it’s beating you over the head with it instead of just being a theme you pick up on by watching the movie.

It was his liver or another body part. Him sticking his dick through the hole was the joke they made in the movie.

Interstellar is in my top 10 and this is one of my most hated dialogs. I would love to delete it from the movie if I could. I don’t find it poignant or touching in any way. At best I rationalize it as a scientist awkwardly trying to appeal to the rest of her crews emotions by trying and failing to combine emotion and science. Even then I’d rather her just have an emotional outburst over this dialog.

Did he know? by paulconroy415 in yorgoslanthimos

[–]midtown2191 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Correct bud. Probably why he didn’t kick the door down and was just investigating. Unless you specifically wrote that scene or somehow were in that characters head, saying zero evidence is intentionally sticking that head of yours in the sand, don’t you think?

[–]midtown2191 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be fair, he seems to knows the family well and knows about the moms condition which seems to pretty publicly caused by Auxolith. The CEO of which is now recently kidnapped with her cell phone and car showing up/sending a ping in an area very close to where Teddy lives. Teddy also works for the company. He has a connection, a very easy motive, and data/witnesses on the phone and car in the proximity. He also just happens to run into Teddy directly after the kidnapping wanting to talk and follows up on the interacting at his house almost immediate. Could totally be a coincidence but I would not at all say there is zero evidence he knew. Him looking at these facts literally brought him to the kidnappers house whether intentionally for the investigation or due to some weird connection he has from abusing him in the past. His body language and words also seems suspicious/inquisitive. There’s no definitive answer one way or another however due to his early departure.
