I meant Angus Scrimm as the TALL Man in the Phantasm movies. My mistake.

I learned that Megan Fox, while very attractive, lacks the jaw strength to completely shut her mouth.  Thus, resembling a whale shark.

It would not surprise me to also learn that she eats twice her weight in plankton every day.
Love doesn't hurt. It kills.

Big Blonde

I learned that a US military officer can use someone's cellphone in Qatar to call the United States (so everyone has international phones now?) and actually get on the line with the freaking Pentagon! Nevermind that it takes everything short of a blood sample just to get into the main lobby of the Pentagon, apparently if you want to speak with the higher ups of our nation's defense branch, you only have to endure two minutes of some random Indian guy.

I also learned that when the DOD is recruiting people to help decode a super top secret signal, they let these people run around willy nilly all over DC with the top secret information.

And finally, I learned that coherent dialogue is apparently no longer necessary in movies, and you can just have your characters say random things that don't really fit with what's been going on, and just expect the audience to except it.

Jackster

I learned that wearing your hat backwards and wearing candy necklaces can get you more girls than an Axe bodyspray bottle could ever do.

Oh yeah, and Burger King is very popular with teens.

I learned that humans can be even "more than meets the eye" than Transformers are.......wait....I didn't learn that.

;D

She looks more like a 'chew and spit' kinda gal.

Tyrant


  I learned that if you eat an entire plate of donuts when being questioned by authorities, it makes it look like you're innocent.

  I also learned that my brother's cel phone must have really sucked when he was in the service almost ten years ago. When he was in Iraq, there was a 2 minute delay between voice signals. According to this movie, they've fixed that problem.

  I learned that when dogs run fast enough, they can rip chains out of brick walls.

A spiter and not a swallower, eh?    I think I will leave that one alone.

RobtheBarbarian

I learned that infantry bring their credit cards to war.

I also learned that if you ask an Arabian farmer where his telephone is he won't understand, but it you make say "telephone" with a slight accent he'll instantly get it.

Sideswipe

I actually had my debit card the entire time I was in Iraq.  There were US run PXs all over the place.

I was bieng threated with death by wolf raping before it was cool!.

Fifthrate

I've learned that hellicopter pilots never look up when they're flying under a bridge. They seem to be okay in leaving it to luck.

I've learned that the Pentagon can shut down it's entire computer network with no ill-effects.

I learned that Michael Bay needs to stick to commercials.

"A site where riffs evolved from movies?!"

"It's a mad house. A mad house!"

Indomitus

After a repeated viewing, I learned that, despite being highly advanced alien robots, the Transformers don't even have the basic wireless capabilities I have in my own home, and have to have a hardline connection to hack our computer systems.  You'd think they'd have Bluetooth or something.

I learned that Michael Bay must die....NOW!!!
Being a genocidal maniac is not one of my turn ons.

Is it weird to hear the Safety Dance in my head watching Game of Thrones?
