The universe is expanding. So every day it will get a like bit harder to find them.

Every birthday of mine.

We know it leaves the shack because it isn’t there when they go to test Blair.

***Spoilers *** (I don’t know how to do the thing where you hide the text.)

The Thing is in the shack because it has a lair underneath (which McReady later finds) where it has been collecting the parts it’s been taking and is building a ship.

I’m lukewarm on the Justice League movie. But your review here and your replies to comments are completely unhinged and have given me a great laugh.

I don’t know if you’re being serious or not, but it certainly brightened my day.

I don’t think there is a name for what your describing. So I suppose you have discovered a new trope.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan might fit the bill. The plot hinges on some members of Starfleet going to the planet Ceti Alpha V thinking it is the planet Ceti Alpha VI.

We, as the audience, are supposed to believe that at a time when we have mastered stellar cartography and space travel is routine, our expert explorers wouldn’t notice that a whole planet blew up and is now missing.

I, and most fans, forgive this since it is overall such a great movie. But nevertheless the whole plot rests on this oversight that realistically would never happen.

Temple of Doom is my favourite Indiana Jones movie.

I’m not sure if this is the same as what you’re looking for, but The Terminator relies on circularity to work. If Terminator hasn’t been sent back to stop John Connor from being born, there would never have been a terminator or a John Connor.

According to Rotten Tomatoes King Kong (1933) has positive reviews from 98% of critics.

Terminator 2 has a positive review from 93%.

I don’t know where you got the idea that critics don’t hold these movies in high regard.

Your comments about snorting and red wine seem to indicate you are basing this off of stereotypes and your own assumptions, not what people have actually said.

I never understood why people find it funny.

Like I get that it’s over-the-top. But why is over-the-top child abuse funny to anybody?

People always misquote this one. The actual line is “No, I’m your dad”

Or the following 112 minutes.

Also because it isn’t funny.
