The Technodrome Forums - Heroes and other assorted TV-trivia

We all watch TV, we all watch movies. And there's always a hero or a heroine, doing stuff no real human could do. In the movie, it all looks fine, but when you think of it, it seems ridiculous. And this is where we're going. We'll take a look behind the explosions and look at the people involved...

But first - random TV trivia:

PCs never have mouses, also, they have very strange OS.

Now, let's talk about them heroes...

Heroes never have to go to the toilet. (Jack Bauer in 24 is a good example of that)
A heroine who's just come from swimming ten miles in the ocean, running 50 miles through the desert and fighting a tiger armed with only a nailclipper always looks like she could still go to a dinnerparty without needing a shower or make-up
A hero can take a hundred hits, despite the fact that one of those hits would have killed a raging bull.
Heroes take five seconds to bet sober again after drinking gallons of booze.
If the hero meets a dying person, the corpse-in-the-making is still able to quote the entire "War and Peace". But he dies just before he can name the killer
Heroes don't bleed to death. They can loose gallons and gallons of blood...
Heroes only get scratches, even when the vilains shoot at them from 3 meters away, using a missile launcher.
Heroes can kill up to four vilains with one bullett
Heroes always get the woman, heroines remain lonely
If you throw an anvil on the heroes head, it does not affect him in any way
A hero with a watergun can annihilate an entire army

I'm sure there's more (I'm actually working on Vilains tonight), but I want to leave something to you. So, feel free to add anything you want. And don't forget to have a good laugh at anything funny.
