It is, however, in Father Goose, with Cary Grant. There's a slap-slap-burst into tears, and later in the movie, there's a slap-slap-kiss-proposal.

Really? I've never seen this done once. What sorts of movies are you watching?

Michio Kaku seems to use the analogy with annoying regularity, but I don't recall ever hearing anyone else use it.

Mental powers will always to used to cause a person to die in a ghastly way, head explode or spin a body for a new paint job. What ever happened to just stopping somebody's heart?

Dang I hate that movie. And that scene is a great example why.

Of course, in the book, Zim has this cool disscussion of the role of Mechanized Infantry in a Universe where theatre level weapon exist. The basic reason (according to Zim) is that war does not equal genocide- often you do not want to kill everybody on a planet or crumble all of their infrastructure. Thats while they have the MI, to be able to go in and surgically inflict some mayhem so that the mission can be accomplished with minimal damage.

And that (undescribable) Verhooven turned it into just another example of Zim being a sadist. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Is it because the movie is dumber than a box of rocks, exceptionally poorly acted, and completely subverts the novel it was based on?

David.

Y'know, I heard that, but I've never seen it. Is it on DVD? That way I could Netflix it.

Actually, by all accounts, that scene in Raiders wasn't an artistic choice, it was a matter of necessity. Harrison ford is given the credit for the change.

Yeah, that guy makes some terrible movies....still, he did direct Robocop. Although I've always felt that Robocop was awesome despite Verhooven, not because of him.

Of course, the Robocop sequels, which didn't have Verhooven, were much less awesome.

Well, I think Robocop got too popular between the first film and it's sequels for it's own good.

If you suddenly find yourself transported into the future (even if it's only ten years) you'll be amazed to discover that every vehicle has been replaced by an odd-looking electric car.

No one will be driving an old pickup truck or Civic. Apparently someone ordered all of them thrown in a trash compactor.

Similarly, if you happen to be in a big city, all of the skyscrapers will have been replaced, because there's no room for the Empire State in the midst of a bunch of pointy metal spires.

Well I've never seen a movie go into detail about it, but it's looking more and more like that might just be a result of insanely high gas prices.
