Movie: Waterworld
Basic Plot: Who the hell cares.
I'm Okay With: Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
I'm Not Okay With: The fact that it is 500 years in the future and the salt water hasn't rusted every floating settlement into dissolved lumps on the bottom of the ocean. The fact that if your boat/floating home breaks, there are no raw materials to make repairs and yet people are still alive after 500 years. The fact that humans could evolve enough to have gills in only a few generations. The fact that someone can sail a world that is nothing but an ocean and find anyone else considering that all of the floating "cities" would be constantly moving around. The fact that people can live off of a diet of nothing but fish. The fact that everyone seems so dirty and yet they live on top of a world that is nothing but water. The fact that I've already done one of these for this movie. The fact that the future's biggest commodity is dirt which can't really be used for much. The fact that any and all water filters have not turned into mush. The fact that Kevin Costner is able to be swallowed by a giant see monster and live. The fact that giant sea monsters exist so quickly after the Earth was covered in water. The fact that the bad guys seem to have a never-ending supply of cigarettes. The fact that it is 500 years in the future and there is still enough gasoline to fuel the bad guys' jet-skis. The fact that during the final scene, three jet-skis speed towards that little girl from three directions and at no point try to slow down resulting in a giant explosion, what did they expect would happen? The fact that no one happened upon the only piece of land in 500 years. The fact that this movie cost $200 million and I still don't where in the hell that money went.
"Seriously, it's 500 years in the future and they still have gas for their jet-skis. How?!?" |
