Often in movies you have the scrappy character that rises to the occasion by making a great speech, winning everybody over. I used to love those scenes. Now, I've realized, in real life they wouldn't have let them finish their first sentence. | ||

stuff like this. if i enjoy a movie but the script simply doesn't check out from a rational perspective (plot holes, implausible behavior, inconsistencies etc.) then i sometimes decide to switch to a fairy tale mental mode where those issues are excused magically. only works with some movies. kingdom of heaven comes to mind. | ||
