Why...why should we resist?

Let's talk about time travel movies like Looper. How does it work? How can you go to the future and kill yourself? HOW DOES IT WORK?

How about Prometheus where a character dies because they forget they can move laterally? That's dumb, right?

Maybe Bill an Ted where they actual talk to themselves? CAN THE SAME PEOPLE EXIST AT THE SAME TIME?

CAN A SHIP REALLY TRAVERSE SPACE?

IS BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH AN ALIEN?

Why would aliens who are allergic to water come to a planet that mostly water?

Can Superman really make the planet spin in reverse and would that actual turn back time or would that just kill everyone?

Can you really infect an alien starship with a virus from an Apple computer?


There is an answer to all of these questions to be found within this youtube video

    I went to see Avengers again because the next showing of mad max was 3 hours later.

    I know people had problems with that movie, but I still like it a whole bunch.

    I still would rather have seen Mad Max.

    I'm in a pickle here

    I can bring the kids to grandma's for a while today

    Which means I am free to see a movie.

    I really want to see Fury Road but my friend already saw it and wants to see Avengers.

    I want to see Avengers but I want to see Fury Road more

    Do I go see Avengers with a friend or Fury Road by myself?

    Fury Road by yourself.

    Edit: like, Avengers is really good but is a bit top heavy


    Fury Road is like a perfect Goddamned movie.

    Maybe if they would've highlighted the word movie I might have found it!

    Mad max only had a 44% drop this friday vs the opening friday.

    That's ridiculously good legs. Glad that finally a good movie gets positive word of mouth and is holding steady.

    I saw fury road.

    I was not in a good mood.

    I did not enjoy myself.

    It's not the movie's fault though.

    It's better that you see Avengers before Fury Road, otherwise you're going to be bored.
