Wow??? Really???


Did people have a problem with the 50 due hard installments, Air Force one or other related movies!! I'm wondering if this is just misdirected hate! My gosh I watch a movie for entertainment because last time I checked this is fiction and anything can happen! I don't go to a movie for accuracy, strategy or an education in defense! I dunno I'm thinking that defense protocols are secret for a reason and in a movie you just fill in the blanks how ever you want.

There is only so far one can suspend one's disbelief.
All the good guys go down in the initial assault & no bad guys get dropped. REALLY?

I guess to each his own! I pretty much laughed and cried a bit too! But yes lots of it was ridiculous but I figure that's why they cast Jamie foxx and Channing for comic relief!

I wouldn't say no bad guys died in the initial attack. The ring leaders best friend was shot by Kale early on. The bad guys caused chaos and then mowed people down while everyone was still confused. While the movie is not realistic, I can enjoy it as much as others in it, like Air Force One and Olympus Has Fallen. It's not meant to be a serious movie - it's a popcorn flick.

After a certain point of absurdity it stops even relating to the subject matter. "Oh it's just a movie! Of course everything isn't going to be exact and perfect. It's just a movie!" Ok then. What if Channing and Fox found a special dried berry stored by Abe Lincoln in 1790 that, when swallowed, allowed these two to teleport outside of space and time, or sprout 100 foot wings (their choice) at will? Of course it was stored by Lincoln in 1790 because he himself teleported back in time to store them for "just a time such as this." Is that ok with you? It's just a movie, right? Of course it's not going to be 100% accurate, right? It's just a movie!!!! Wrong. This movie was absurd from beginning to end having nothing to do with reality.

Of course the movie is just fantasy, action movies like this are following the Die Hard Formulas, pure entertainment, that`s it, and i like it like that.

Actually, this would make a much more interesting film than the one I've just seen. Time travel and all - cool idea !

Best post Ive ever read on Imdb or anywhere for that matter...this is the best answer to all the reatarded people out there who defends their retarded movies just like this piece of crap movie...I hate "its just a movie of fiction" but when the movies is trying to look and act real then its not just a movie...if its fantasy then yes otherwise no. Great post man!

What utter nonsense your post is. Yes, it's just a movie, and in movies one is permitted to exaggerate things for the sake of action-adventure-fun (concepts you seems ignorant of) - it's known as artistic license. But the nonsense you are spouting above is ludicrous because the things you suggest break out of the "rules" of this movie's reality. And you don't even get that you made a mistake in your rush to be so snarky:

"Of course it was stored by Lincoln in 1790 because he himself teleported back in time to store them for "just a time such as this." Is that ok with you?"


No, it's not ok with me because if "he himself teleported back in time to store them for "just a time such as this." then he went the wrong way didn't he? If he teleported back in time he wouldn't end up in 2013 to store anything for these guys to use - he'd wind up in the past somewhere. You should have been smarky - which is being smart and snarky.
