Why do we never question the logic of say, Bugs Bunny cartoons the way we question the logic of these movies? Pretty much anything can be picked apart so that it makes no sense.
Kevin Gossett said:Have you ever used a Walkman in space? No? Me neither. Maybe the rules are different there
Why is it that the music is playing in "normal time" for him? His mutant power theoretically would only apply to him, the walkman he has should not have his power apply to it.
That reminds me of the quotes by Grant Morrison.
"A child knows that real crabs on the beach do not sing and talk like the cartoon crabs in The Little Mermaid. A child can accept all kinds of weird-looking creatures and bizarre occurrences in a story because the child understands that stories have different rules that allow for pretty much anything to happen.
Adults, on the other hand, struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform with the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it’s not real."
And there is the following quote along the same lines.

I put a portion of the blame for the current attitude on Mythbusters.
A perfect example is the Star Wars special which aired last night (at the end of the holiday marathon). They were testing the scene from ANH when Luke and Leia swing across the gap with a grappling hook to escape the Stormtroopers. They claimed the scene was plausible noting that it could be done but it's unlikely because Luke made the throw in one shot and it took them over fifty throws. This reasoning completely overlooks the reason that Luke made the throw in one shot was because he was strong with the Force whereas Jamie Hyneman lacks even the slightest bit of Force sensitivity.
Or that Luke carries around a grappling hook because he's really good at throwing one.I put a portion of the blame for the current attitude on Mythbusters.

Or figure out if you can only see the other guys feet, then shoot the feet.

At least one other had the grappling hook. I need to go back and check where. I just want to know what Stormtroopers use them for...

Well the Death Star has a lot of precarious drops and not much safety railing. I'd probably carry around a grappling hook, too.At least one other had the grappling hook. I need to go back and check where. I just want to know what Stormtroopers use them for...
