A good guy with a sling shot will defeat an army of ninjas with machine guns every time.

And if your car has the doors welded shut and a confederate flag painted on the roof, you can jump over a 60 foot chasm and keep on driving when you hit the other side. Every time.

Also, the vehicle will change magically from one model car to another!!!!!

Sadly, during the loma prieta earthquake when the bay bridge collapsed, people thought they could leap their car across like in the movies.  However, with no ramp, you just fall down at 9.8 m/s ^2.

Co worker of mine got rear ended in her car and immediately leaped out and started running.
She thought it would explode.

It gets there. And as it was pointed out in Batman: The Dark Knight Returns: "Despite what you may have heard, you are likely to stay conscious all the way down." Aw yeah. That'd be a treat. On the other hand, I'd hate to have a heart attack as well all the way down.

On the way down youre just like an astronaut in space-weightless.  Its exactly the same.

Ah, the A-Team.  I loved that show when I was a boy.

Me too! When we would watch my dad would always comment how full of 💩 this show was. All those shots fired and no one ever gets hit and never any cops. When you’re 11 the show seems legit so I quite enjoyed it

The critic reviews are still useful to me-high critic low audience means a complete dud.  Low critic high audience means great film.

I used to think that too for the longest time. Then the story of how the film Gotti with a 0% critic score and thousands of positive audience responses - the week the film released.

So stories like that detract from the real scenario of the old days when I thought critics wanted something artsy and the audience wanted good entertainment.

audiences are very reliable arbiters of quality. Tenet in a landslide

Maybe not the best film of 2020 for me but easily in the top three.

We sure aren't weightless when we hit. This says I weigh 230lbs falling from 1,000 feet. Top speed is 174 mph and it takes me 7 seconds to get to my destination.

Warner Bros.’ Wonder Woman 1984 in its third weekend continued to emulate the legs of a horror movie, down -45% with $3M at 2,218 theaters and a running B.O. of $32.6M. It’s quite clear this movie isn’t going to make the money that Tenet did stateside at $58M and we knew that all along as 60% of all movie theaters are shutdown, including No. 2 chain Regal (Pennsylvania and Colorado reopened this past weekend I heard). Adding further insult to injury: I hear that after a dismal holiday period some movie theaters have decided to close down, and are skipping paying Warners on WW1984; that’s how bad things are. The studio, which normally doesn’t need to fight for its rental dollars, will need to do so now.

‘Wonder Woman 1984’ Continues To Fall With $3M In Third Weekend Amid Pandemic & U.S. Capitol Woes - By Anthony D'Alessandro

Interesting. The same Disney fanatic that noted The Last Jedi only cost $200M to make while everyone else was reporting $300M (+). Also interesting he used the same approach as Joker when he noted "...I hear Joker actually cost $70M to make...". Because then when you quote a rumor, all you are doing is sharing this information. Not something you can be held legally liable for.

Not surprised you buzzed around this one excitedly.

Wait. Don't you mean Mark Hughes, the dead Herbalife guy that still keeps posting about Hollywood events and results? I get so confused with your steady WB/DC negativity claims.

Oh wait. You blew that one too.
