Your most pointless TV/movie/book nitpicks

[Artamo]

If it's a good story then I can generally ignore the bad stunt work. The problem comes when it's just some action/adventure mindless drek and they drop in something like that. I just can't ignore it.

I watched The Wrecking Crew this week with Momoa and Bautista, and there’s a scene where they do a knockoff of the Oldboy hallway fight, and it’s just so bad. It needed a better editor or coordinator or something because it just looked like a wrestling match where a punch misses by a mile and yet the guy falls down anyway.

I enjoyed it overall but yes, that fight stood out. Especially how each of the stars seems to be getting to beat on someone at separate times, so one wouldn't distract from the other's awesomeness.

I didn’t dislike the movie overall either and I think that was more a testament to the likability of Momoa and Bautista, plus a soft spot for buddy cop movies. I also liked the over the top ridiculousness of the car chase scene, even if the FX were a bit hokey.
