On Why did the President fly a fighter jet in the final battle? in Independence Day
Says dumb
A head of state in a cockpit is a risk no one would allow. The film sells it with a speech, but it is a bad idea in every other way.
On Why is Bane's dialogue so hard to hear? in The Dark Knight Rises
Says explained
I could hear him fine and the mask is the whole point of the character.
On Why do the drillers drive the Armadillo across the asteroid like a dune buggy? in Armageddon
Says explained
It is an action movie and this is an action scene. If you want a realistic space drive, this is the wrong movie.
On Why isn't Elsa cold in a snowstorm? in Frozen
Says explained
She makes snow. She is not going to be cold.
On Why did Anna agree to marry someone she had known for a day? in Frozen
Says explained
It is a cartoon and the song says it all.
On How could Monica and Rachel afford a huge Manhattan apartment? in Friends: Season 1
Says explained
It is a sitcom. Please.
On How could Rick walk out of the hospital after weeks in a coma? in The Walking Dead: Season 1
Says explained
He is shown as thirsty and weak, and the show gets to the zombies quickly. I do not mind it.
On Why didn't Jack climb onto the door with Rose? in Titanic
Says explained
