Major flaws in Famous Movies

Contact: My favorite movie of all time, but there is a huge flaw in the ending. The review board essentially calls Elli a liar on her description of the time travel trip. Hello, the ball landed safely in the net below and clearly is ready for another run. Put Mr. Skeptical in the ball and give him a spin. I mean, I am sure this big machine uses a LOT of gas, but you would think the human race could afford the cash for another run.

Star Wars episode 4 (the first one): In the Death Star destruction scene, a small handful of fighter pilots head out toward the death star in a certain suicide mission to place a missile-bomb-thing in a hole the size of a basketball while cruising at near mach speed. On the way out, "Red leader" comments on the radio "Man, look at the size of that thing". "Cut the chatter Red Leader" barks the big fat leader. So here they are on the way to certain death and Red leader cannot even make a simple comment. If I was Red leader I would have manueverd behind Fat leader and launched a photon torpedo right up his rude ass.

The HoneyMooners
Ralph has a fulltime job as a bus driver. they have no kids, and yet his wife sits at "home", which is a shack apartment. They have not even a single picture on the wall or any furniture. what does alice do all day long? Norton works in the sewer, but his apartment is all painted up nice and looks great.

The Doberman Gang
HAHAHA!!! This movie is a riot! A group of bad guys decide to rob a bank using a pack of trained dogs. They send the dogs to the bank with notes tied around their necks telling the tellers to put lots of money in their saddlebags they are wearing. Well, they come barreling in the bank and start raising all sorts of hell and guess who happens to be standing there; a bank guard with a..... GUN. Boom boom boom, story over. nah, one of the dogs bites the guard on his "gun hand" so he cannot shoot them. Hmm, I bet I could shoot a gun with my left hand if i tried.
It's a stupid movie, but worth the pain for all the laughs.

The accidental Tourist
The flaw in this movie is that IT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN MADE. Will Hurt plays a role that is so depressing and boring that you need red bull injected directly into your veins to tolerate him. Gina Davis plays one of the most annoying characters you can imagine, especially that nauseating "cluck" sound she does with her mouth. What a pile of shit.

I don't like Kirk anymore

James Kirk is an asshole, and here is why.

First, check out this picture of him from the movie posters:
Pretty evil looking, wouldn't you say? I would place him as a prime suspect in any serial murder mystery. Or a cocky smart-ass bastard. In stark contrast, William Shatner was a jolly sort of fellow.
In the latest movie, they show kirk as a cocky kid driving a vintage mustang off a cliff and essentially ridiculing a policeman. The policeman should have taken this spoiled brat and beat the living crap out of him to let him know the meaning of the word "respect". Then cuff him, beat him again with a club, and then throw him off the cliff.
So in the movie he reprogrammed the computers so he would not have to do the "face death" scenario during the testing. he cheated death and thus failed at the most important situation a captain can be in. It seems that kirk is one of those people who enjoy "getting away with things". Spock and the counsel should have run his ass out the door right then.
It is beyond me how he managed to stay in power.

The history of my "Technicals"

In gas ballooning, you have several things in the basket that require electrical power from a battery, and you need some sort of distribution "thing" to run the power from the battery to each device. For my very first race, I was all uptight about having everything perfect, and the only technical I had ever seen was Willie Eimer's box. See Fig 1. Below

Fig 1. The "Eimers" version

It looks like something that should be on the dash of a 767 Airbus. I made an exact replica of Wilies, thinking that since he was such a veteran that he must have come up with the optimal solution. Well, it turns out he just likes to tinker. Anyway, This one was a rats nest of wiring on the inside, complicated to hook up, and hard to deal with at 2am.

So I decided to simplify. See Fig 2 below. I figured all I really needed was the connectors on the bottom and a main switch, but I added a new feature, a switch on the front to select one of 4 batteries that are under the seat.

Fig 2. The "MacNutt Multi Battery" version
This looked and worked great, but for some reason my radio would stop working sometimes due to lack of power. After two years of irritation, I figured out that I had too many thin wires with all those battery selections, and it was starving the radio.

This year I had had enough of this shit, and came up with the optimal solution; See fig 3 below.
One very thick cable from the box to the battery, a simple digital voltmeter, and 3 cig sockets for accessories like cell phone chargers.

Fig. 3 The "Finally Something Reasonable" version

It weighs nothing, has almost no wiring on the inside, and provides solid power to the transponder and radio.
I wish I was clever like other people who get things right the first time, but I am a dunce.

just blah

How a single sentence derailed Jewel's career
When Jewel first hit the scene, she released a decent song "who will save your soul" which had a really good video; gritty, saturated colors, etc. People loved her because she had those cute slightly crooked teeth like linda rondstaht, and also the story that she used to live in her car. Well, then all of the sudden she starts putting out these whiny songs about lame stuff, and then wham, she writes "you were meant for me", an absolute nightmare of a song. Dripping with whine, and the one line that put her career to a dead end... "Put on my pjs and hop into bed". The public no longer had money to buy her albums because they had to spend it on anti-nausea medicine. Violent vomiting was reported to be widespread across the country when this song hit the radio. AT the point when she uttered this pathetic line, you could see car doors opening all down the highway with people hurling out on the road.


HALF BLOOD PRINCE??
what a stupid name for a movie.

I have determined that the unemployment rate in Austin runs around 35%.
you can go around town at any time during the middle of the day in the middle of the week, when everybody SHOULD BE AT WORK, and the roads are clogged solid. that means nobody is working.

one of the WORST songs ever done was that incredibly stupid "she's gonna be somebody's baby tonite..." song. i dont know who wrote it, but they should be beat and then shot. HOLY SHIT! this is by that moron jackson browne too! same as the stupid pretender, lender, sender, legal tender song. well, it is official, this guy is a total loser.

Out of all the cities I have been to in the world, I found Boston to be the most boring, and annoying. there are a list of historic sites to see and they are all separated by many many city blocks and sometimes having to cross under traffic jammed interstates along shitty roads and such. the restaurants in the center city were jammed and smokey and hot and irritating.
the traffic there is even worse that Austin, which is saying a lot.

this guy "Jackson Brown" which is basically two last names has this song where he rhymes like every possible thing he can think of:
pretender, sender, lender, legal tender, mender, gender, fender, and so on.
It's a stupid song and that's all i have to say about that.

I have tried SO HARD to like Radiohead. They are my heros because they made that no-talent ass clown miley cyrus look like the complete childish spoiled idiot that she is, but I just cannot seem to get into their music. I find it droning and bland. And yes, i know that it is totally hip to like Radiohead and no doubt they are talented, which discourages me because that means I am not hip. But I like Daft Punk and the Racontes, does that count??

GOOD news! I was out running on town lake trail and had a one hour rant on how stupid these middle aged jocks look (late 30s to mid 40s) trying to act like they are speedsters because they dress hip. HAHAHA! they are big fat nobodys. They are hardened with chisel jaws and a rough looking haircut with a mean look on their face. They wear overly trendy shoes that are expensive and have like a 2 inch heel full of gel and air and all sorts of nonsense. They hang out with bimbos sometimes. They wear those slinky silky running shorts that look mostly like girls panties. If they wear a shirt it is usually some sort of muscle shirt so they can show off their fat. Body fat runs in excess of 12% with a heavy look. They work ouyt at the gym excessively resulting in a huge lumbering body.

The REAL runners look totally different and I shall describe them now.

The real runners fall into two catagories:

1. Aged seventeen through mid twenties. skinny as a rail, pale, almost-racing-flat shoes, no shirt, and a serious look on their faces. They have a "six pack" stomach not because they waste time in the gym, but because they have no body fat to hide those muscles. Probably in the 4% range. They run in groups and blow by the middle aged oakley-sunglass wearing jocks like a hurricane. These guys turn low 30s on a 10k and sixteen flat on a 5K.

2. The elite. You rarely see them on the trail because they have no time or interest in running near people. Usually very tall, very black, and even thinner and more serious than group one with a body fat of about 2%. They wear racing flats because their heels never hit the ground. These guys hit upper 20s on a 10k and in the fifteens on a 5K. They make the middle aged spring-shoe wearing jocks look like senior citizens rolling around in scooters shopping at HEB.
I'll see if I can find some pics of the chisel jaw guys.
