Haven't seen the movie but I bet there are another million things that doesn't make any sense for a skinny woman to be able to do.
Physics leave the room when women starts swinging...
It's Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, physics was never invited in this story.
Dirk Gently was so fucking goddamn good.
I miss it.
It's all farty butt-talk, if you ask me.
There's this story that Mark Hammil tells about being on the set of Star Wars and he mentions to Harrison Ford that their hair should be wet, since it was just wet in the previous scene.
And Ford says something like, "This ain't that kind of movie, kid. If the audience is talking about our hair, something has already gone wrong."
I actually really like that line. I remember watching the latest Star Wars trilogy and just nitpicking. I'm not a super fan, I don't even own anything Star Wars. But, the movies kept pulling out stupid takes that my suspension of disbelief was gone and I kept focusing on hyper details.
I also like that Harrison Ford calls everyone kid.
Rise of Skywalker gave everyone what they wanted.
If you watched it wanting a fun action adventure movie, it gave you what to wanted.
If you wanted a movie you could nitpick and complain about on the internet, it gave you what you wanted.
Please remember that Star Wars was released in 1977. It absolutely blew people's minds because they were doing something that nobody had ever seen before, to an audience that was just perfectly ripe for receiving it. It would have been impossible for them to cover every single base, when they were doing such ground breaking things, you kind of have to see it in the light of that, like you would watch Metropolis by Fritz Lang, or Nosferatu.
You can't nitpick it the same way you can Marvel slop in 2026, there was so many ground breaking things, most of all it was a genuinely alien experience because we hadn't really seen such a well designed intergalactic society and world building before, that all the minor stuff is just afterthoughts to what the greater story was.
It's like finding flaws in a renaissance painting, or the Iliad, or classical opera- which is a fitting comparison considering SW is the definition of space opera, down to containing one of the most genuinely masterful, memorable, and well crafted scores of all time.
Actually, you can always nitpick some more.
Mark Hammil does an excellent Harrison Ford impression, so there's a possibility that the "kid" is part of the impression, rather than a direct quote. Also, I was doing the quote from memory, so I might have remembered it wrong.
But I also like the thought that Harrison Ford calls everyone kid.
Wild to call out a character that suffers from neck-down alopecia. Waow.
how i feel watching an apocalyptic movie where all the men are clean shaven
Always bugged me how the grass wasn't overgrown in The Walking Dead. Who the hell is going around mowing lawns in the zombie apocalypse?!
thank you for the good laugh
The same thing that is lighting the candles in caves and hideouts in Doom and Skyrim. It’s their summer job
There is that videogame based on that premise. Goblin cleanup. You reset and clean dungeons in between heros.
My biggest gripe is when they're not cleanly shaven, visibly dirty and rugged, and then their teeth are blinding white. Motherfucker even my own teeth don't fucking blind me and I wash my teeth.
Enamels fucking ruined historical dramas for me while we're at it. Braces too tbh, ohhh we used to have actual snagle teeth in my day 😩
They're always "styled dirty", so they look filthy but somehow perfect. It's like when the hero gets a cut, it's always this cool looking little streak across the cheekbone, or if it's on the body it's a perfect 10cm scar on the shoulder, or close by the pelvis so they can show off their abs. It takes me out of the suspension of disbelief, because I can't get lost in the acting if the acting is done by these perfect creatures that look NOTHING like they haven't slept, are underfed, paranoid, depressed, and on the brink.
Sure, that is harder to achieve, because good art is hard to achieve, and I just don't dig cheap art, what can I say.
Part of that (the cut placement) is making the prosthetics though. Yeah, you can make good looking cuts elsewhere, but the more the site moves, the more hassle it is. Facial prosthetics in particular run into trouble when they're near the mouth or brows. So you end up with cheeks being preferred overall.
With the body, you run into issues with making something visible, movable, and believable. Gashes across the abs fail at all three, whereas shoulder and pecs are solid choices. Legs would be too, but they're not in frame as much, and shouldn't be without a good reason.
Everything on screen is a compromise of some sort.
Hm I hadn't thought of that angle
Maybe they forced her to get laser hair removal when they were messing with her. Super underrated show! I love Dirk Gently, whatever character has screen time at a given moment is my favorite character.
Sorry, which show is this? Dirk Gently's Holistic etc? Or the miniseries Dirk Gently (2012)?
I should re-watch it I guess, it's been a while. (The lady still looks familiar though)
Yep, Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency. The original books that it’s based off is written by Douglas Adams, the author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy!
They always have perfectly manicured eyebrows too
100% guarantee that if she did have armpit hair some other sad bastard would be making a post commenting on it
Maybe it was just luck that her pits are shaved. I mean her "super power" was basically just a Rube Goldeberg machine of happenstance going on around her.
