He was raised in the jungle with monkeys but he was shaved.
Weird, isn't it?

Maybe he doesn't grow body hair. Some men can't grow beards. My brother is hairless

Gillette had an ad campaign that I saw in the NY subway system, a year or two ago...

"Does Superman shave?"

What did little mermaid Ariel eat under de sea, if not her own beloved subjects?

And why did all those prey animals celebrate the continuance of the devine-right rule of the apex predator lineage in The Lion King?

So Ariel was like some kind of cannibal?

Why do people celebrate every time the new president is chosen?

You tell me.

Why do people celebrate every time the new president is chosen?

Because the departing one was so crappy and the new one hasn't yet had a chance to fuck up? Besides, being lied to isn't quite the same as being carved up and eaten.

Honestly, do these prey animals think the next generation of lion is going to eat tofu?

They just don't know how, specifically.

But the prey animals know that lions eat fresh meat and that they don't eat other lions.

On Die Hard 2, why were all the planes simply circling DC. Weren't there several other nearby airports that weren't taken over by terrorists? I'd think that even in a blizzard, a plane would be able to land using ILS.

Got that beat! This dreadful film takes place at Dulles Airport on the East Coast, but our hero, in Dulles Airport seems to that special phone from .....LOL  Pacific Bell!

The thing that most bugged me (happened in both Ghost and an episode of Star Trek the Next Generation:
Ghosts being able to walk/slide/fall through doors and walls, but not through floors.

In Ghost, a bad ghost got dragged across a floor by other ghosts and on out through a wall.

In STTNG, a ghost-like Romulan slid along a floor and right through the outer hull, to drift forever in space. Ensign Rho could run along floors just fine and poke her head through walls.

In there something cosmically sacrosanct about floors?

In the pottery love scene from Ghost, both Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze's hands get covered in wet gooey clay, but when they start making love, their hands are clean:

But Al...do you really want to sit in a movie house days, weeks, months, years for one film. Logic dictates...

It's usually a pretty intolerable movie that doesn't.

Not really. Many indigenous people had ways to shave.

Everything in movies and fiction books doesn't make sense.

Except for the box office take.

That's the beauty of fantasy.

Without that license, as used by authors, everything would be as boring as a fake reality show.

The book explains that he shaves with the knife he recovered from his parents' hut because none of his ape parents have a beard...

There are scenes in the Buddy Holly Story where Buddy is playing a Fender Mustang guitar.

This guitar was not made until 1964, Buddy died in 1959.

A little thing but annoying.

In Robocop - it is set in the future - but for one lovely moment you see a calendar in the precinct - that is from 1986.

They are gonna miss a lot of court dates  . .  .

Universal Studios, Warner Brothers, 20th Century Fox, Disney, They all have those type of Candles. They are expensive. lol

In just about every good-guy vs. bad guy movie, there's a point where the bad-guy has the opportunity to shoot the good-guy. The bad-guy always immediately kills the other characters on the good-guy's side without any discussion or hesitation.... but when they get their chance with the hero they always delay by talking, fiddling, or whatever... which winds up giving the good-guy the chance to somehow get himself out of the situation.

I don't need no stinkin' gun, John!

That has to be the ULTIMATE irritation in movies. The bad guy is always a deranged, knee-jerk killer UNTIL it comes to the hero of the movie.

Then the bad guy becomes an orator, or somehow desperate to prove himself in hand to hand combat.

Seaweed. She's a vegan.

Gravity: what well trained astronaut goes eva from a wrecked shuttle without first checking for an oxygen tank to top off first? At least the were other suits with some air in them left.

Pacific islanders, native Americans, South American Indians  - no facial hair.

The War of the Worlds...Spielberg's version. Excellent Visuals. But wait..something is not right. During all that time...those machines were buried in Boston's underground..or where ever they were buried...No subway system, no underground electric station, no sewer system...came across these outer space machines? Logic...was thrown out.

They could have been buried much, much deeper.

I -- and pretty much everyone else in the theater where I saw that movie -- wondered how the hell Tom's family was dressed to the nines and had the house looking like home for the holidays complete with turkey dinner on the table while the alien machines had the rest of the city looking like the siege of Stalingrad.

That got the entire audience booing.
