Hollywood's misuse of technological breakthroughs is pissing me off
Hollywood's main job is to entertain us, and very often, new devices are featured in movies. Assuming the device worked as Hollywood advertised, by breaking as many as the known laws of the universe as required to make it work, I find it really hard to believe that the main character in the movie ......
FAILED TO ABUSE THE DEVICE !!!!!!
...... If only I can lay my hands on the device !!!!!!
Here's some examples
Click
In Click, Adam Sandler plays Michael Newman who is a architect who overworked himself for promotion and ultimately, as a business partner in his job. Ignoring the fact that he can be such a bastard to Donna Newman (Kate Beckinsale) aka the hot babe in PVC suit in Underworld, he displayed supreme stupidity when he got a universal remote control which does a couple of amazing things which affects the things around him.
- Mute, or change volume of target object to Adam
- PnP (Picture in picture view) of the world to Adam
- Rewind to any part of Adam's life and play it back like a video
- Fast forward himself or an object by going on auto-pilot mode
- Pause the world and makes changes to it
And guess what, he is a complete moron to use the Fast forward button most frequently. It's is a complete waste of a device which is really a god-send. Instead of fast-forwarding, he should be pressing the pause button ALL the time !
By pausing time, relatively to the rest of the universe, you can do so much more in the same period of time ! Having infinite time will be so godly, just think about it ! Every single button on the remote is god-like powers !
The Prestige
Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden (Christian Bale) were rival magicians whose intense competition ends up with Robert Angier winding up with Tesla's special creation for him : A device which can duplicate anything !!!!!!
The only catch is that the duplicate can appear anywhere within a couple of metres from the original to a hundred metres or so. No big deal, can always work around that, especially when the same duplicated item always ends up at almost the same spot as the hats and cats have shown at Tesla hideout. Instead of abusing the device, Tesla gave it away to Robert Angier, who in turned used it for entertainment...and killed himself everyday in the process.
The device can duplicate stuff right ? The most obvious thing is to duplicate $$$ !!!!!!! As a dumb cash-strapped scientist in the movie, he failed to literally make his own money. You can duplicate money, gold, diamonds, anything precious or valuable and he gave it away. He had to cheat Robert Angier for fundings and he couldn't think of it? I am totally stunned. Hey he is so broke that he have to provide his services to his host town for his lab electricity bills. With infinite cash, he can have his own nuclear plant to duplicate even more $$$ !!!!!!
He is a complete moron !!!!!!
Arrrgghhh Hollywood script writers are taking me as an idoit !!!!!! I want to be rich and rule the world ! Haaahaaa give me the remote or duplicating machine you dumbass !!!!!
... got carried away
