    Roads are on switchbacks, while patrol cuts across.

    Either way, as Chris Hardwick said when someone over analyzed one of the TWD shows.

    Riight. I try to ignore as much of this stuff as I can, but sometimes they exceed my level of disbelief.

    Any time we're watching a movie and something impossible or improbable happens and my wife questions it I just remind her it's a movie.

    I'm full of contradictions when it comes to what things I can deal with, and those I can't, when it comes to a suspension of disbelief.

    Yeah, me too. Some things I can just chalk-up to the premise and others just annoy the crap out of me. I sometimes laugh at myself that this far-fetched premise that defies our known world was OK until *that* happened.

    The way my memory works is that I remember 'last known state', so I'm a continuity guy's worst nightmare.

    Discontinuity drives me nuts.

    I say that I'm full of contradictions because it sounds polite and balanced. I really think that all my beliefs make perfect sense.

    Note to self: avoid watching movies with Irving and Gman.

    Watching people with OCD freaking out over small details would really trigger me.

    The less I like a move, the less I'm willing to write off. Some stuff is just so easy to not screw up that it comes across as lazy. Pulling back the hammer on a Glock for instance.

    Like The Bourne Ultimatum. Gun kept switching between a Glock 17 and a Sig Pro in the same scene. Then you hear the Glock being cocked.
