Mitth'raw'nuroudo Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 This wizard really is just a crazy old man. If he wanted green-eyed hotties with fiery spirits, he needed to set up shop in Ireland, not ****ing Chinatown. Ten out of ten hells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Human Torch Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Why do the magic men wear wicker wastebaskets on their heads?The sedge hat is an actual part of asian cultures. It was designed to provide good protection from both the sun and rain fall. The hats in the film are basically these hats just even larger. As to why those characters wear them... maybe there is a mythological reason, I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I don't just think Walter shot his way out of that graboid and flew away with a jetpack; I KNOW he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copper Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I like it when they do drugs to go fight the big baddie at the end. "I feel good." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Human Torch Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I suppose technically it's an intoxicant, but it's magic. Just viewing it as an intoxicant is like thinking Harry Potter is a slight of hand artist... we'd be missing an important distinction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copper Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 it's magic when you're a kid and it's drugs when you're an adult. At least, that's how it has evolved for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
