    Transformers, all of them. Love those movies, but they’re not getting academy awards.

    My favorite is people who complain about them because they’re not believable. Yes, the movie with the robots from outer space didn’t stick to science 100% of the time.

      I have the same gripe with video games. Who cares if it’s not historically accurate that there’s a woman fighting? Guess what Tommy, none of us fought in World War 2 either!

        Part of it is how much of the sales pitch stressed the accuracy. Dont tell people you’re making something “as historically accurate as possible” and then flagrantly disregard it.

        Like making concessions is one thing. In cod ww2 red dot sights are unlockable because frankly iron sights suck. Not historically accurate but gotta give players some kind of magnification to see at medium/long range.

        But every gun getting a Silencer (not even suppressor lmao you can straight up make an LMG near silent) Disregard of reality. Cod ww2 didn’t like…sell itself on its historical accuracy, but these were just 2 examples to show it.
