Question of the Day - Tuesday, February 28

[cassiopea]

Greetings! Happy Tuesday!

Someone late again, my pardons, snow storm yesterday and it was quite the adventure My car got stuck! Happened in between a job interview and my ballet classes I was teaching that night. Made it out thanks to some wonderful people who stopped by to help, but goodness, what a day!






What only works in movies?






- Jumping through shattering glass unscathed, without cuts or lacerations all over
- Hitting someone in the head to briefly "knock them out" without killing them or serious brain damage
- Turning on the TV and hearing the important or relevant news story at that very moment
- Post Apocalyptical characters who are very well groomed or mature period drama characters who have a full head of coloured hair or highlights (Unless playing a 90 year old)
- Someone suddenly showing up in the courtroom, especially in the last minute, and presenting new evidence which is immediately accepted

People who pick up a phone and automaticaily know the phone number without looking it up.

Getting up in the morning and not having to go to the bathroom first thing.

 

[susanm9006]

Finding out that the store owner, the bartender, the bookstore owner etc is a handsome, witty and available man.

 

[Lari]

Doing anything active and still having hair look nice.

 

[PMousse]

Getting seriously injured but then merely hours later run and bounce around like nothing happened.

 

[iPappy]

Waking up looking like you just stepped out of the beauticians chair!

 

[Margot Lane]

Time travel, surviving journeys through black holes and stuff

 

[MoochNNoodles]

The hero/heroine taking off their glasses and/or pulling down their hair and suddenly becoming irresistibly attractive.

If I tried it all you'd see is lumpy hair and me squinting.

 

[PMousse]

The wind always blows gently and towards the face, so that the hair never gets in the way.

 

[catloverfromwayback]

Groups of bad guys who can fire multiple rounds at the fleeing hero but never hit him. (Why do main villains hire hit-men who can’t hit the side of a barn from five paces?)

Or putting on glasses and suddenly nobody can recognise him, eh, Mr Kent?

 

[aliceneko]

The nerdy/shy kid dating the most popular kid in school. As someone who was that kid at school, trust me when I say it never happens in real life!

stuff that happens in tv shows like charmed

Not necessarily that this only works in movies, but I feel like I only see it in movies (especially Hallmark) where there is frost on the windows in every store and home on screen. If you get frost on your windows like that, you need better windows, so it's highly unlikely everyone in a small town happens to all have bad windows.

When I was a kid I always begged for that spray-on fake snow that you could do the part around the trim so it looked like that, but I always ended up spraying it all over the place.
