Why in American films do they alway put the country after the city ?? say a spy goes abroad and you need to know where he/she is..

Paris-France


London-England


Rome-Italy


Where else would these cities be ffs..

Paris, Texas
London, Ontario
Rome, Georgia (or New York)

Then there's:
Athens, Georgia
Cairo, Illinois
Manchester, New Hampshire (or Connecticut)
Birmingham, Alabama
Warsaw, Indiana
Berlin, New Hampshire (or Vermont)
Amsterdam, New York

And so on. There's even Stockport, Iowa ffs

The Eiffel Tower, a red bus or the Coliseum should really do the trick.

I think the thing with films is that they're not real.

why in star wars/Star trek you can hear the lasers, expolosions and engines in space..?? space is a vacuum so sound cannot travel through it so its totally silent.


wankers are doing it for effect.

According to a 1962 study, .30 calibre rounds can reach terminal velocities of 300 feet (91m) per second as they fall. More recent research has indicated that 200 feet (61m) per second is enough to penetrate the skull.

We had all this last year when i posted about the soldier who died at Cold Harbour in American civil war when his gun shot in the air and bullet came down and killed him.

Back on thread, why in The Good The Bad And The Ugly Eastwood is on a chair with a noose firmly around his neck and floor falls in and hes out of the noose and disappeared, impossible to do in a split second
