GordonD Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 Police are approaching a suspect, who is oblivious to their presence until they shout at him, giving him the chance to leg it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ, I just watched a couple of films where that happened. Suspect walks round the corner a hundred yards away, polis spots him and angrily yells, "OI!" Suspect legs it and somehow gets chased down by plod. I don't think I've ever seen a film where this happens, the suspect disappears immediately, and the cops are left looking embarrassed thinking, "maybe shouldn't have done that, duh". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54_and_counting Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 (i know why but still sometimes its ridiculous how bad it is) Massive battle/fight etc, henchmen for the villain are taken down with a simple throw, trip, one punch etc But main characters can get smacked about with all sorts and still get up for more Watched the episode of DS9 "way of the warrior" the other day, the klingons who boarded the station were beaten by simple punches, leg sweeps and uppercuts, warrior race my arse 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convoluted to get Worf into the show, these big terrifying warriors utterly wiped out by tailors, scientists and the like. If I remember right there's a bit where Worf stabs someone in front of him, then stabs someone behind him right away without looking at him. Must rewatch it again soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye was a bit of stupidity, the bit where dukat and garak are defending where the council are, two starfleet people lying dead from blows to the head etc Yet all 4 had phasers, how the f**k did the klingons get close enough in a tight hallway to get to them while dukat and garak survive lol Edit to add, DS9 is still the best of the star trek shows mind you Edited Friday at 11:14 by 54_and_counting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
