| Perfect Storm. It's supposed to be a true story. But at the end, the crew of the ship dies with nobody knowing exactly what happened to them. So either the crew really died, thus the whole story was bullshit, or the crew didn't die, thus the story was bullshit. |

Or maybe "based on a true story" isn't "is exactly what happened without the slightest alteration".

"Based on a true story... and built on until it's unrecognisable"
The thing I hate most in movies is when you know DAMN WELL the hero is going to die, and yet the supporting actor/actress/vegetable has to say 'You're not going to die...' |

Reading a Macros post in the Age thread, I recognized another of my movie line pet peeves.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
"That was uncalled for!"
Even sometimes in real life, this line bugs me. Why? Because does something matter if it was called for or not? Shoot, a lot of times people want others to do things without "calling" for them. Now, the situation may not be a good one; it may be a bad one; but just the line and the way people say it bugs me. |
