Did you....just call him..... "Mace Window"?
I just saw this part, and yes, he did say "window" the first time.
@kelleyk28 sorry, I was looking out of the Windu, what happened?
how the hell did anyone think blackwidow was calling herself a monster for not being able to have children?? that never crossed my mind, i always took it to mean assassin and all the death she's inflicted on the world. i mean FFS she spends half the first avengers movie talking about red in her ledger..... was that her talking about being sterile? of course it fucking isn't!
i swear people look for reasons to be upset.
Perhaps like you. Aside from the usual "progressive" types I've never heard anyone say they thought she was calling herself a monster simply because she had been sterilized. WhatCulture videos are notorious for taking something said or written by 0.01% of the population and attacking it as though 10% of the population was saying it.
When Natasha Romanov says she's a monster I only ever thought she meant because she's an assassin, who are these people that thought anything else different?
Natasha isn't self deprecating. She's matter of fact, which is shown off gloriously with her one liners for her entire stint on screen. That's her personality. If you thought anything different than she was implying that she's an assassin, then you clearly don't understand the character.
Well said. I never saw it any other way than an assassin is a monster.
@@martinbarr9402 "I'm here to pick up a fossil."
My thoughts exactly. People always want to twist things to see it in as bad a light as possible.
Because the context of the situation. Saying it's because she's an assassin ignores the context of her regret shown in the movie. It's ok, media literacy isn't for everyone
Because Feminists and simps need something to complain about in order to feel relevant.
And it's foreshadowed since Autumn comes after Summer. It would also be safe to assume 500 days later he will meet a woman named Winter.
If Summer was bad, then Autumn is gonna be worse, and 'Winter' is gonna be the worst.
In Whiplash….i felt that was obvious…he was a bastard and jealous.
I knew #10 from watching Drummer reactions to that scene. They all say "he's on time".
I used to work at this telemarketing place that tried to some questionable tactics to "inspire" us to sell & close sales. OK, the tactics weren't the only thing questionable since they probably broke some laws as well, most likely scamming customers. They gave rousing "testimony" about how some of the workers had nothing, but NOW HAD CELLPHONES (later, found out from the person that it was a free, government provided-cell phone). MOST of the people who worked there, except this one other lady and me, were either ex-cons or people with serious substance abuse issues, so they tried to play it off like "LOOK, we are SAVIORS here! Do well and you can TURN YOUR LIFE AROUND!!" It had a weird cult-wanna-be-like atmosphere (though no one there actually bought it). And what film clips did they play to try to INSPIRE us?? One of them was a few scenes from "Wolf of Wall Street." The other was from "Boiler Room." I found neither of them in the least bit inspiring. That they thought we would find them to be POSITIVE ROLE MODELS made me realize just how little they thought of is. Horrible place.
Not for one minute though that Black widow called herself a monster for not having children.
It's okay nobody else did either. WC still misreading the audience
One I see go under peoole's radar all the time is:
KHHAAAAANNNNN! Is not Shatner overacting Kirk's anger at Khan leaving him stuck in a cave on Regulus while promising to blow up the Enterprise with Kirk powerless to stop him.
What that shout is really is Kirk playing up his anger and outrage to stroke Khan's ego, to make the genetically engineered superintelect human, under-estimate Kirk and the Enterprise. One scene later it is revealed thst the Enterptise was not as damaged as Spock said, because his repair estimates were coded to be exaggerated. Kirk knew this the whole time Khan was bragging to him. So that iconic scene is a lot more clever than generally given credit for.
And then "Into Darkness" missed the entire flipping point.
I mean the whole reboot series missed the point so that's not surprising. Superb casting wasted on three generic space action movies with the same damn plot -bad guy's family/friends/crew/loved ones died in a way that he blames the federation for. He loses his mind and goes on a rip roaring rampage of revenge which the Enterprise crew gets caught up in and has to defeat him.
Exactly! Kirk is simply provoking Khan who isn't as tactically experienced as Kirk. The scene where Spock points out Khan fights in two dimensions is Khan's downfall.
With Superman, I know it's easily missed while watching the scene due to the inevitable eye-rolls, but he almost immediately starts flying around it a second time to fix the spin afterwards.
Correct. Either what culture is wrong, or Superman overshot the point in time he was trying to go back to and had to catch back up.
@@TheLFB Maybe they weren't talking about the theather cut but only the og director's cut, don't remember if the scene in both is different like that
Yep, WhatCulture is just wrong here. Try to contain your surprise.
I think what a lot of people don't realise, with regard to Upham's reaction in Saving Private Ryan, is that not all the soldiers who were conscripted into World War 2 joined the army voluntarily - at least, certainly not in the UK. By the time it got to 1943-44, and many young men had already died, ALL men of 'fighting age' without disabilities or other medical restrictions were being sent letters by the government pretty much ORDERING them to join up, or have a couple of officers show up at their house to 'escort' them to the nearest military training camp personally. This meant that men who were *completely unsuited* to being soldiers were being shoved into a uniform, handed a gun and given only the most basic of combat training, and then sent off to war zones and told to get on with it. (Spike Milligan's war memoirs are a very accurate, brilliantly funny and heartbreakingly tragic account of what life was really like for these unwilling 'volunteers.')
Upham was a writer and a poet before he wound up fighting in combat - if the war wasn't happening, there's no way he would've chosen to be a soldier for his career. Damn right he reacted EXACTLY the way ANYONE who would never choose to join the military if they didn't have to would react. Any 'armchair soldiers' trying to claim they would've Done The Heroic Thing in those circumstances are deluding themselves, frankly.
If I remember right, it's also stated at the beginning of the movie that Upham has NEVER fired a weapon since basic training. So he's certainly not going to be comfortable doing so, and his reaction is totally understandable. I never understood why folks ragged on his character so much, people are such assholes.
That’s not a sound argument. It rests on some assumption that only a volunteer and experienced soldier would help someone in mortal danger. That’s not the case. Humans have a tendency to help others in danger. Add to it that Mellish was also someone he had a connection to, the inaction was cowardly and not backed by human psychology.
@@All5Horizons Fear of dying, is a much stronger emotion, than the willingness to help someone else in danger, where the threat to them is less. Being fear stricken is not something most people can just push aside, though some can.
@@Thurgosh_OG That doesn't really work here. Upham is literally holding a gun and wasn't under threat of attack. He could have killed the soldier easily and with no danger to himself. Not doing anything actually made him more likely to be killed.
No, he didn't. Countless men who were drafted performed in combat without freezing up like that.
I’m more optimistic about Tom at the end of 500 days of summer. For JGL to call him the villain is a bit extreme. Even Summer herself said that Tom was right about romance but that it just wasn’t her he was right about. So the right woman is out there for him, and maybe from his experience with Summer, he’ll be able to see more clearly which one fits him better and his yearnings for the couple life. There’s nothing wrong with being optimistic about who you meet, what becomes a problem is being optimistic near to the point of delusional where you don’t ever see the flaws in your relationship until it’s over.
This exactly!
The immediate reaction I had at the end of that movie was.. Yep.. he didn't learn a thing. I believe that was probably the director's intend too. Come on! the girl was named 'Autumn'! If Summer was bad, then Autumn is gonna be worse, and 'Winter' is gonna be the worst.
I literally never took black widows words in that manner. I can see how someone can reach that conclusion, but not when you actually listen to words and story.
Upham is very authentic. Someone who has not been faced with charging into a life and death situation cannot understand the crippling fear, he is literally the deer in the headlights. Love that the German soldier elected not to simply kill a helpless Upham out of chivalry but literally at the end he single handedly took a squad of Germans prisoner showing he was in fact quite brave.
even that description of the superman time travel ending - its still completely unbelievable.
But people forget 78 superman is silver age superman, so he could do both if he wanted to
About the Superman entry, my memory may be flawed but doesn't Superman did other spins around tghe Earth after going back to make the rotation in the right way again??? If so, doesn't it contradict the theory?
This is correct. After flying around to theoretically reverse the spin of the Earth, he flies in the other direction to reset the spin. Even if the explanation in this video were correct, Superman would have easily been fast enough to stop all of Luther's missiles. This scene in the movie has bothered me for its absurdity for a long time.
@@cabralwilliams9812 Yeah I always hated it
Also I could be wrong about this but doesn't travelling at the speed of light theoretically make time travel to the future possible, not the past
@deanjordan1369 Yes - due to the combination of time dilation and length contraction at relativistic speeds, Superman would indeed (if I remember correctly - it's been some time since I thought about this) 'travel to the future', relative to a stationary observer. I didn't think about this, but it does make this one even more problematic.
Yup.
Superman still falls prey to the Time paradox. His reason to go back in time is to save Lois, but by saving her he negates the reason to do the time leap in the first place...also the carnage still happened.
This was a great episode, thank you!
While you may not be able to blame young Bonnie for souring the perfect ending of Toy Story 3, I sure as hell can blame the writers and Disney execs
What I was thinking. As cute as Forky was, Toy Story 4 was completely unnecessary. Of course, realistically, you can't blame a little child for choosing whatever toys she wants to play with, rather than sentimentality. BUT the writers made us fall in love with Woody, with Andy, and their relationship. THAT relationship was not only pivotal to the movie but practically sacred. The ending of Toy Story 3 was meaningful to everyone who loved the trilogy. They set that up and then wrote BONNIE to be the one to throw all that away.
Forky could have been in a very cute Pixar short set in the Toy Story universe, and that would have been fantastic.
Did people actually not understand the whole ‘I am monster’ quote??
But she isn't large, or green and she can't have babies?!? I'm not very smart, so you must be wrong.
People who claim it's because she's an assassin have failed media literacy 101
@@michaeljohnson6905 bro, suggesting the concept of 'media literacy' to a nation comprised mostly of the functionally Illiterate is a losing battle.
@@michaeljohnson6905 And yet, you are still wrong and it is entirely about her being a very skilled assassin. She has said it about herself in the documentaries and comics too, and explains why she sees herself (and is also viewed by some who know of her), as a monster assassin. No connection to her inability to have children is even thought of for this.
@@michaeljohnson6905 interpreting a quote on a surface level (i.e. oh she's talking about being sterile, so she is a monster because she is sterile) is failing media literacy 101 which tells us to question and analyze things we watch, read, and hear.
Who is Mace Window?
Cousin to Master Windshield from the Alfox Alternate Universe
Tom in 500 days of summer's cycle was obvious
Anyone who simultaneously loves the Smiths and the Strokes deserves to be unhappy. Just my opinion.
@@williamdixon-gk2sk haha ueah I have to ageee with you there😜
wolf and wall street ending means he had, has talent but was able to get up from the bottom after Jail and start again which is a good thing for all of us. He learnt his life lesson
This is Your interpretation of these scenes.
Had me fooled….damn! 😂
Nice one
Another frequently misinterpreted scene: the end of Midsommer. It literally says in the script that her smile is supposed to be horrifying - she's not happy, she has gone insane.
Video feedback: Lookup twin paradox and delete the superman portion.
I always thought Black Widow was talking about her assassin history, not that she couldn’t have kids. WHO THE HELL THOUGHT THAT???
Yeah, even at the age of 10 (when I saw it), the Superman thing never made sense to me. Everyone told me that Superman reversed the rotation of the earth to turn back time but that made no sense to me. Reversing the rotation of the earth wouldn't turn back time, BUT flying at the speed of light would, relatively speaking (sort of, I was 10 and knew there was a relation between the speed of light and time travel). But everyone told me otherwise so, what do I know.
Another good one is The Mist. Everyone thinks that it's tragic that the main character shoots his son and all he had to do was wait like 30 more seconds. But that's not the twist. The twist is that the religious woman in the grocery store was actually correct when she prophesized that sacrificing the boy would end the horror.
Could we just kinda call it a two for one? It's kinda like that on the gut punch. IJS
I always thought that the real twist was that if he had taken his son and gone with the woman, who left to find her child, he and his son would have been alive on the back of that lorry at the end. That was his mistake.
but the horror was already over when he shot his son...just because he didn't know it doesn't mean it wasn't the case. Those soldiers didn't just materialize the second he killed his kid.
I love Mace, but I prefer his brothers 'Bay' and 'Patio' .
There's a similar scene in 'Fury' as in 'Saving Private Ryan'.
I never saw whiplash any other way. Fletcher is an abuser, a calculating psychological manipulator. The point of the exercise for him is to bully the kid and break his will by telling him he got wrong, regardless of whether he did or not. Fletcher is one of movies’ best, most authentic screen villains. That’s supported by the way he flips between nice and nasty, holding out the carrot and then using the stick. A technique common to abusers called, “gaslighting,” where he can flatly deny the events preceding the current moment, like they never happened. The final scene represents the kid breaking free of his abuser, doing his own thing, regardless when Fletcher is, for the first time, powerless to prevent him.
Mace Window? XD
The immediate reaction I had after watching the end of 500 Days of Summer was.. Yep.. he didn't learn a thing. I believe that was probably the director's intend too. Come on! the girl was named 'Autumn'! If Summer was bad, then Autumn is gonna be worse, and 'Winter' is gonna be the worst.
Mace Window?
Breaking the speed of light does not mean you travel back in time. it only appeares that you travel back in time.
Light takes about eight minutes twenty seconds to reach the Earth from the Sun, this includes visible light, or what we can see.
If a ship travelled from the Sun to the Earth at eight times the speed of light, it'd complete the journey in about 62.5 seconds.
If an observer on that ship had the means to view their point of departure at the sun they'd notice that a "visual echo" can still be seen of the ship for about seven minutes at the sun because that is how long light takes to travel that distance, and what we see is limited to the speed of light.
This gets even more complex because they'd also see themselves in reverse until the travelling visible light catches up with the faster than light ship. the closer light would be the most upto date, while the further light would be further back in time.
Therefore you don't actually travel in time it just appears that way.
If Superman was to travel at the speed of light he'd complete about 7.5 circuits of the Earth every second. He's not going back in time he's just covering a vast amount of distance every second.
Backspinning the Earth to reset time, as stupid as that sounds, is actually more believable than Suoerman travelling back in time. Plus after he puts things back in time he then reverses his spin attempt to reset the correct spin of the planet and therefore allow time to flow all normal again.
You are correct and WhatCulture are wrong, again!.
But in Superman he flies around the Earth back the other way to get Earth spinning the correct way.
….why would we assume you could go back in time by moving faster than the speed of light?
that's probably what Flash does i guess "to travel back to the past"🤷♂
@@Ra-Hul-K Yeah. But, even if it were possible to move faster than light, you'd be going into the future. You'd be getting ahead of light, rather than sneaking behind it.
@@All5Horizons that's why i put it in quotes "to travel back to the past"
@@Ra-Hul-K Fair enough. I think I'm just still hung up on how the video actually calls it a more logical explanation
Mace WINDOW????
Question: What is wrong with your title ? If everyone gets it always wrong, that includes you and that makes it impossible for you to get it right
Mace who?????😩😩😩
Wait, some people thought that Natasha said she was a monster because she's been sterilised? That's stupid. She's a monster because she's an assassin. Nobody ever thought the other thing.
you are contradicting your self ...obviously somebody thought the other thing, which you said in your first sentence.
@@Ceares What I meant to say is that YOU SAY that someone thought that Natasha said she was a monster because she was sterilized. That's stupid, nobody ever thought that. Better?
I always figured the speed of light thing with Superman... but it would be 100% clearer if the visual was scientifically accurate. We can't humanly detect something moving at SOL so the proper visual would be Earth inside a seemingly static mesh of light trails. If we can see the head of the trail (e.g. Supes) then it can't be SOL.
Or just increasing the speed of the reverse spin of Earth to create the illusion that Superman is gaining speed, finally to the SOL and then ad in the Fx imagine are suggesting.
If that is what you said, sorry. I didn't quite understand.
Idk about the Upham take
#2 yea, Scarlett complained about objectification in Iron Man 2. Hopefully no one with a say in the Ultron script would have allowed such criticism of infertile women by then.
I understood 6 of these
Superman - The impression that Superman is causing the Earth to spin backwards isn't helped by the fact that when he stops and then reverses direction, the Earth begins rotating forward again, as if he is reversing what he's just done. To me a much bigger problem is that he goes back in time, and doesn't actually appear to do anything to prevent the disasters that lead to him wanting to go back in time in the first place. He time travels and everything is now fine.
Yeah, their excuse is a retcon. The fact that the earth changes in rotations more than once demonstrates what donner was going for.
Your Superman explanation is one of the silliest things I’ve ever heard.
Time dilation simply doesn’t work like that.
Healthy debate. lol. Yeah sure.
(sigh) I miss Jules on these lists.
never seen the film but maybe the actor playing the young drummer was suppose to drag but messed up
He was supposed to be playing in rhythm, but kept getting told he was either dragging or rushing.
Tom is not a villain in 500 Days of Summer. Yep, I said it! I like Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but when he said that, was he sucking up to a , "modern audience?"
In light of our updated understanding of quantum theory and the "many worlds" hypothesis, even if you buy the ridiculous premise of Superman 'reversing time' by traveling at the speed of light, he'd only be reversing time for HIM, making him a bit of a selfish wanker. Superman has branched reality to create the ending he wants, while Lois is still fully dead in her timeline.
A possible continuity mistake & *not a big deal* in Quadrophenia. Jimmy is first shown riding a a Lambretta scooter. Later it's a Vespa. Neither company ever owned the other, maybe Jimmy just switched brands. I've seen worse.
YES! As any Superman comic book fan would know, he was traveling back in time NOT making the Earth spin backwards. Hearing this stupid take on Superman for over 45 years has been one of the most irritating entertainment take ever.
any stargate?
Yeah . . . I'm going to disagree with the premise of this video. Critical thinkers learn that absolutes tend to lead to weak arguments. The title of this video includes two absolutes: "everyone" and "always." Yet an even bigger issue is the concept of what the creator intends and what the viewer experiences need to be the same. Often, people will interpret scenes based on their own experiences and biases. If they get something from a scene that resonates with them, good for them. One concept of storytelling is that once you release something for the masses to experience, you let go of any right to tell them what you think they should get from it.
Summer was such a jerk for leading Tom on. 😢
The last movie's ending is a direct rip off from Harold and Maud.
RIP Christopher Reeves. Cursed, like his father before him.
What??? 🤥
Algorithm 👍🏾
Yeah, Upham is still a coward in the context of every other soldier in that company giving everything they had and him just allowing the German past him twice before shooting him down, while he was surrendering, afterwards to make himself feel better about it
The German soldier that stabbed Mellish is not the same soldier Upham shot. The one Upham shot was the soldier they let go after the medic was killed. He recognized Upham before he was shot. The soldier that killed Mellish and walked by Upham was an entirely different person. Don't know why people get confused about that.
He shoots the guy at the end out of anger, as he's the one that they let go earlier. He's not the same guy that stabbed Mellish. It's the only time he fires a gun in the entire movie, and at the beginning, they say how he hasn't seen any combat, and hasn't fired his weapon since basic training.
Traveling at the speed of light is impossible. Also, traveling at a significant fraction of the speed of light will only result in you traveling forward in time, not backwards. Your explanation makes no sense, and I don’t believe it that was the intent. It’s fine though, because it’s a movie about an alien who has superpowers that defy many laws of physics.
"Traveling at the speed of light is impossible.", so far, in human theories. Superman however is going so fast, he's building up the energy to also create a wormhole to a point in the past, which he overshoots and has to correct for.
Are you aware of the concept of 'Intentional Fallacy'? The intent does not matter. It is how it is received that is important. Read some Barthes for a greater insight.
Are you validating the idea that no matter what, people who get offended are always in the right, and that the intentions of the offender are irrelevant?
@@themysteryofbluebirdboulevard No and no. I get racially insulted every day but I don't care. I know what the intent is. It is not a question of 'right' and 'wrong' but of cultural relativity.
But why would Boba go to the empty helmet. (Also, that shadow of the head could be a later addition. George does that sometimes.)
You expected him to pick up his dad's head? WTF dude?!
@@rideredRC51 Haha, or he could run close to the head at least. 😅 The helmet is the less important thing at this moment.
The shadow was there from the first release, it wasn't added in later
@@alexp601 Thanks for checking that up. Unfortunately, that means, that the scene makes no sense. 😬
@@marcneef795 I didn't have to check it up, I just knew 🙂. What doesn't make sense? He picked up his dad's helmet to mourn him, which is a lot less gruesome than him picking up his dad's severed head, plus it sets up him wearing his dad's helmet when he's older. I don't see anything wrong with the scene.
I don’t know who started that pseudo-intellectual take on Saving Private Ryan, but it needs to stop.
Sorry I have been in combat and you are wrong. We do not abandon our fellow soldiers.
THANK YOU for the Superman/Earth rotation thing. It was always obvious to me, even as a kid, and I could never understand how people thought he reversed the rotation of the planet. 👍🏻
