Modern Movies That Were So Good .. Until These Scenes. Winston: You rejected his marker. You're lucky he stopped there. What the hell were you thinking, giving a marker to a man like Santino D'Antonio? Wick (incredulously): It's the only way I could get out.

Winston: Oh, you call this out? What did you think would happen? What did you expect? Did you really think this day would never come? What does he want you to do?

Wick (stupidly): I didn't ask. I just said "no."Winston (shaking head): Two rules that cannot be broken, Jonathan. No blood can be spilled at the Continental, and every marker must be honored. Wick (confused): I have no choice? That's mostly secret- assassin gibberish but it still should be pretty clear what's going on here: There are only two rules in this society, and John Wick broke one. The idea that there are only two rules in this society (along with the fact that apparently everything costs exactly one gold coin) stretches my disbelief, but I can accept it. I can even accept that professional assassin work comes to you in an app like Uber (another plot point).

But the idea that these two rules are too much for Wick to remember? The guy who's an expert in every gun, every form of hand- to- hand combat, who can speak Italian and Russian and remembers the favorite drink of an old colleague (Common, we learn, drinks gin) can't remember that you have to honor blood contracts? Summit Entertainment"Which one of these drinks is mine again?"↓Continue Reading Below. In fact, he seems to be struggling with basic cognitive function the entire movie. Like 9. 0 percent of his lines are incredulous questions asking more articulate characters to explain the situation he's found himself in.

I've actually come up with a fan theory that John Wick is just a really really stupid man who scrapes through life purely based on his ability to murder. Showtime Full Split Second Online Free. But that makes the movie less interesting so I don't think about it very often.

Apparently DC movies can be good, which was absolutely shocking to me even though it happened as recently as 2. I have a very short memory). And though much ado has been made about the fact that it's the first female- led superhero movie, it was also just a good adventure movie where a woman kills people with her whip. I haven't seen someone get killed with a whip since, oh, before you were born.↓Continue Reading Below. Which is a shame because that sailing scene, man - - it was pretty bad. I'm quickly developing a reputation for being the Cracked Sailing guy, which is fine because it's good for my career to have a brand. So go ahead and call me that.

I don't get a lot of opportunities to talk about sailing because most movies don't include any sailing and when they do there's not that much to say. The boat would be moving more than that," I might mutter to my date, but only if I want to make sure I don't get another date. That's not really how the water would look from the shore of a Caribbean island" are some words that have actually come out of my mouth. I can be picky about anything, but listen: Wonder Woman got things exceptionally wrong. The scene where Steve Trevor and Wonder Woman sail from Themyscira to London is, bar none, the worst sailing I've ever seen in a movie. They literally don't get a single detail right.

First, there's no indication of how the sails are trimmed. They're just hanging there, like Chris Pine and Gal Gadot's hair, indicating that there is no wind. Sailboats need wind to move, and you adjust the sail depending on what direction the wind is coming from.

The wind's pressure on the sail, as well as the daggerboard, centerboard or keel's pressure against the water, guides the boat in the direction it needs to go. If the sail is limp, the boat can't be moving.↓Continue Reading Below. Let's pretend this is forgivable (even though it's fucking not).

I get that most people won't notice, and if we had simulated rough seas and high winds they probably wouldn't have been able to improvise the funniest scene in the movie. Maybe Amazonian boats are made out of bullshit fucking magic or whatever. I wouldn't have even mentioned this if things hadn't gotten ten times crazier the next second when both characters go to sleep. Who's making sure they stay on course? What if they get run down by some steam ship?

They don't even have running lights, for Christ's sake. Not even a candle stuck in the spreaders. Normally, on overnight passages, you want at least one person awake at all times "on watch." And since this is a one- night journey, there's zero reason for both characters to be asleep at the same time. I can't stress enough how little sense this makes. It's more implausible than anything else in the movie, including the lasso of truth or the idea that anyone could find David Thewlis intimidating.

To me, anyway. I totally understand why nobody else cares. JF Sargent is a Senior Editor and columnist for Cracked and needlessly iconoclastic about all kinds of stuff.
