- Olympus Has Fallen came out the same year as White House Down, prompting our 2015 April Fools sins video mixing the two together: • Everything Wrong With ...
But the original Olympus Has Fallen is plenty sinful when looked at on its own.
Next week: Two animated sins videos.
Remember, no movie is without sin! Which movie's sins should we expose next?!

Forgot another sin; not a single SWAT team in sight, and the police don’t even grab their patrol rifle!
I don't recall seeing any cops carrying rifles every time they went on patrol. How do the bicycle officers store their's?
Aumjaya Kishatriya Not sure.
@@ReroutedYearAD they store it in the anal cavity
@@zoomer5700 Thank you for elaborating my joke to me. I had no idea what my punchline was.
@@RandomPerson-gb7dc I don't see baskets or saddle bags on the bicycles and the bicycle units don't wear a utility belt. Motorcycle units wear the utility belt which is equipped with three or four holsters, one for the pistol, one for the tazer and one or two for handcuffs, if those are counted as a holster and not a pouch, but then same for the notepad. And this was about bicycle units with rifles, which are too long for a basket or saddle bag.
President: This is my grandfather's watch. How did you find it?
The First Lady: I have my ways.
MovieSin: The First Lady is a grave robber.
*i simply died*
And the First Lady's ghost ripped off your corpse.
I violently died.
I bet that Grandpa kept the watch in his rectum like other brave men, like Coolidge and Captain Coons, did.
You died and then the First Lady robbed your grave.
So did she
I've actually visited the White House as a tourist, and just the security I could SEE would have stopped this attack butt cold. Also, any plane---ANY plane--that even comes close to DC airspace without permission will have multiple fighters "escorting" it and be being tracked by multiple SAM sites inside of 1 minute.
During 9/11, the Air Force couldn't even stop an attack on the Pentagon.
@@Kai-tn4yx you think we're gonna let it happen again? Nahh you getting shot down real quick. Apache helicopters would be on you so fast
DC airspace is locked down tight...do not worry. (Firsthand knowledge btw)
They don't even need air support, Trump just invites em in and the guards have refreshments set up for insurgents...
So Dulles airport is out of business then?

Troy Evitt I mean, you said white trash, thats pretty much racist pal
Troy Evitt oh no you were totally racist
Troy Evitt i think you’re just insane my guy
I always get the feeling that CinemaSins actually did more research for this video than everyone involved in those movies has ever done for it
He called flares, sparkler shields, aside from that he did pretty well
Lol
CinemaSins has given me back many hours of my live; hours of watching movies that would have annoyed me rather than entertained me. I think I'll see if they did Red Dawn. I heard good things about that movie; however the only thing I find more ridiculous than North Korea taking down the White House is North Korea launching a full scale invasion of the United States. I would take James Franco's satire The Interview more seriously than any film depicting North Korea capable of toppling the US government through violence - military or otherwise.
Seriously, when you get to the AC-130 part, you have to suspend your disbelief so hard you won't disbelieve anything anymore.
Then it only gets worse.
Perhaps this movie would be possible if it was a national 'military and national security services take the day off day'.
yeah... honestly are they really gonna leave an AC130 ungaurded?
You mean like it happened on 9.11?
@@mancamiatipoola 9/11 was a commercial airline jet that was not known to be taken over plus one would think that a huge fking ac 130 heading straight for the white house would be a tad bit suspicious to the army in comparison to an airliner.
Honest to god, I would have been fine with that explanation. Would have been somewhat funny and creative. But no, instead the movie tries to be serious and doesn't even bother explaining ANYTHING. 2 hours of using Google and the movie could have made sense, at least in it's own little universe.
@@mancamiatipoola killing an entire flight crew of an AC-130, then stealing said AC-130 and going towards the white house is a hell of a lot different. and virtually impossible for nobody to notice in time to shoot it down. plus this is after 9/11, so security measures are much better
"Worst attack the white house has ever seen"
*Stares in Canadian*
Real shame aboot that, eh?
*british army that came from canada
Fuck Canada
Cabaret Macabre fuck you
@@Joeysaladslover nah hes right; fuck Canada
Why the fuck did Olympus has Fallen and White House Down come out? Like seriously?
Guess they just want to make the government more paranoid.. Or maybe they wanted to show other nations that we can watch such movies and accept them as they are.. China or North Korea wouldn't allow such things to be made about their own country, for example.
💰💰💰
+Thirdstreet
It doesn't require propaganda to hate North Korea
+Thirdstreet Yeah. As far as propaganda goes, that would be low on the list. North Korea fucks up enough that you don't need propaganda for people to realize that they might not have the best system in place.
+Thirdstreet why would anyone consider this pro American propaganda? Apparently the most well equipped and highly trained military in the world can't do crap against one plane and like 50 dudes...
You missed a couple sins I noticed after a rewatch:
1) The two garbage trucks with the mini guns decimate the second wave of secret service agents coming out of the White House but are never seen from again. You have me believe they, what, fell asleep on the job? “Nope, we took care of the last of the resistance; our job is done here. Let’s fire up Netflix and chill.”
2) The George Washington monument that collapsed after the plane hit it is shown fully intact at the end of the movie when a new American flag is hoisted up the flagpole. Why can’t all construction be that quick?!
Also there´s the scene where a sniper from the White house roof shoots 2 times without reloading and then keeps making the shooting gesture but they didnt add any special effects, so it looks like a kid with a fake gun shooting to a lpane lmao
Manuel saal there’s also when they shoot the rpg at the front door, the dude on the right tilts forwards then backwards midair due to his wiring harness.
@@manuelsaal9331 1- Considering what I know "Netflix and chill" to mean, few greater times and places for a gang-bang.
2- They don't have it in the commercials, but it was rebuilt as fast as it was because they used chicken wire amd Flex Seal.
Sus
God bless you for rewatching. What a brutal slog of a movie. I don't think I even finished it.
I think the AC130 and mysteriously stolen Hydra system teleported in via a plot hole, since 75% of this movie is comprised of gaping wounds in the plot.
Wait a minute, this "movie" has a *PLOT* ??? Who'd known?
Can't wait for "Everything Wrong With London Has Fallen"
Is that a show?????????? Or a movie?????????
jman _jd10 Upcoming movie
+Super Beary or White house down
It's the sequel that happens in London and it's full of sins. Sin Counter would be dinging like hell.
Plus 16,000 sins plus 20 sins ding ding ding ding...............
Well, its no longer a movie but a reality show...
My favorite part was when the AC-130 got all the way to the white house. I've worked with the Air Force before, as soon as an enemy aircraft is detected on American soil, every single nearby pilot is going to take off to try to shoot it down. It's been decades since the last air-to-air kill, so everyone with a plane has itchy trigger fingers. Also why didn't they just have Apache Gunships to take care of the AA gun on the White House? Those things are almost invincible. And on that note, those helicopters they did send in, in no way needed to be that close. And finally, the only people in the military who I've seen with a news channel always on are the guys doing weather, although there are probably more.
9/11?
+Metrosuez Yes great comparison. An airline jet being taken over mid flight and a huge military jet that is flying past military airspace is a completely reasonable comparison -_-
+cezgamer I think he is possibly referring to the Illuminati/tin foil hat theory that the plane that crashed in Pennsylvania was shot down by U.S. fighter jets.
+cezgamer lololol
Brandon M. Bruursema No offense to the tin foil hat community, but the black box they recovered said otherwise.
12:45 Tank withdrawing at "Cartoonish" level is okay. A lot of them lock the turret backwards in high speed travel mode to keep it from being damaged.
Are you a vet? A) Thanks for your service. B) Are you one of those vets that can spot a movie with ZERO-real/ex-military advisory staff the first time some schmoe prepares to use a firearm?
On an aside, FUCK foley effect guns. I'm a civilian, but only an idiot thinks a .22 is going to sound like a fuckin' concussion grenade. It's why people sometimes fail to realize there's an active shooter emergency.

+tsntana apart from the presidents wife who got killed, that one black woman being some security chief whatever and the protagonists wife she is technically the only female being in this movie. and unlike those other three she had some remarkable screen time.
I will always remember. I was working at the movie theater when this came out. I was at the entrance taking tickets, and some dude with his wife asked me: so is this movie good? I was like well.....humm...there's a lot of action but it's that classic formula where there is a good and a bad guy and guess who wins? lol. The guy became super mad at me because I responded to his answer honestly. I was like go fuck yourself if you don't want to hear what are my thoughts on the movie just don't fucking ask me, geez. (I didn't actually say that because I didn't want to lose my job haha but I should have!).
I thought you were going to say he was mad because of spoilers.
You should have said that it is a true masterpiece of the cinematic arts. In fact ... it's all a deep metaphor for the arshness of an ephemeral Human existence and our antagonic love/hate relation with the Gods.
You're why people can't be trusted online.
Dude in this story you're the a****** he asked you a yes or no question. And this belongs in r / that happened.

Despite it not actually being called a Hashtag, not knowing what a # looks like in 2013. (ding)
14:10 - "I'm sorry about the house. -I'm sure it's insured."
Being the first time the president can see the aftermath of this attack and all the dead bodies, decides to pop a joke. (ding)
I agree, this should have been a good ten minutes longer. Just about every single scene made no sense.

8:22 We shall never deny a guest, even the most ridiculous request.
+StarManMatt The Krusty Towers lol
4:03 that scene is actually accurate. How it works is the heat seeking missile targets the flares rather than the plane.
no shit thats the point of flares
@@christiannainer4526 yeah but he didn't know that. He talked about it as of it was ridiculous.
i feel like the movie did this on accident, there was too much that was inaccurate beyond disbelief for them to get this one detail correct
@@princestevenii.772 apparently chris didn't understand the reason for your explanation
Although, let's be honest, if some wacky ass terrorists hijacked a fucking AC-130 they would use laser-guided missiles, not heat seekers.
Watched the film thinking it was an action film. Liked it much better when I realised it was a comedy.
Jcskyknight . Er hello they were shooting each other , they fired smoke grenades teargas whatever you called it a Rocket launcher was fired and blew up some cars, a coach sort of nearly got blown up , a plane came along splatting bullets everywhere, the door of the white House was blown off , etc no I don't think it's comedy. It's a terrorist action film. Only fools & horses, open all hours , on the buses were all comedies. You can see a film call mutiny on the buses , or holiday on the buses , or carry on camping or any other 70s or 80s sitcom films if u wanna watch comedy. This film had bombs, guns , teargas , Rocket launchers. I think it was an action movie. 🎬 da .hello.
The part where Banning shot the guy around the corner of the wall without looking with a gun is because he is simply the best on the squad. He is skillful, so he can just guess where the guy is and shot him without even looking at him
This movie is a guilty pleasure for me. Gerard Butler is fun, the kid is adorable, and I love Morgan Freeman in almost everything he does.
Here I give to you a life time supply of air!!!!!!( not compatible when under water, when choking,when dying and when in space)
yay

4:55, when he says “Where’s my son” his mouth isn’t moving. Ables of the president everyone.
4:04 "also, what I think just happened is the Korean plane just deflected those secret building bombs with a sparkler shield"
I sin this video for not knowing that AC-130's drop flares to stop heat seeking missiles as the flares are hotter than the plane.
But the rockets still explode close enough to cause some damage to the plane, I think that was what he was getting at.
Enemy AC-130 Above!!
Sky Knight but again he says himself long endurance plane built to stay up
Yeah those countermeasures only work if there where heat seekers XD those where clearly LGM'S which would follow whatever the laser is pointing at so yeah XD this movie is 100% bullshit .. I've seen low budget films that make more sense then this movie
12:38 are we just gonna ignore the bottom left screen where soldiers are literally doing a flip out of a truck instead of just jumping out?
Lol, good eye!

It was pretty out there with a giant military plane headed directly to DC with little interruption (even if it was a stolen US plane). They would’ve had several F-16 or such intercepted it before it reached the city. This was post 9-11-they’ve beefed up security “a little” since then.
Heck, according to the direction it flew in from, it would have gone by the Army base Fort Belvoir. That base has SAM sites within it that would have tried to tag the plane before it got anywhere near DC
I love the scenes in Cinema Sins where there is a long screaming "NOOOO~" Because I always end up saying No at the same time that Sins does.
I still like this movie though
buuuuuuuuuuh
You have a very bad taste, then.
+Motsognir I found it entertaining as well. I know that it's not a very good film, but it's damn entertaining. Like they said in the video, it's Die Hard in the White House. I can't help but love it simply for this concept.
+Motsognir One does not simply have "bad taste".
+Mimyakko Same here. Especially the part where he captures the 2 guys.

I laughed so hard at that.
"We can't fight in here it's the war room!" This is why I love Dr. Strangeglove. And also kudos to you for including it!
Now that Angel has Fallen is coming out pretty soon here, it's time for London has Fallen.
???
They did it.
Can I just say something for all the times he says 'How did the cameras get this close to get this footage?' in any CinemaSins video?
You know cameras have zoom, right? Someone couold get on a rooftop or in a helicopter and use the ZOOM function on a camera! Why is no one bringing this up!?
That might be a valid argument in other circumstances, but here nobody's going to be allowed in line of sight of the target.
"His complaints about the President sound more like a sophomore from Vassar who is heavily invested in the Occupy movement than a former Secret Service agent committing treason."
One of the best CinemaSins lines ever, IMO.
The sparkler show from the C-130 are chaff flares, and that is how it deflects heat seeking missile attacks... but not that dramatically.
+Deeker Jones Modern missile seekers will need more than flares to get fooled. But then its hollywood stunt scene!
For sure. It is just a countermeasure used for one specific type of attack. In the case of a SAM attack, the missile would be laser guided anyway, and the chaff would be able to deter the assault only through sheer luck that all the incoming missiles impacted a pod.
+Deeker Jones Yeah, suprising slip up from CinemaSins. Those flares are a real thing. Not even SciFi. And maybe they work better than in real life, but it is a movie, that's a much smaller sin than he made it out to be.
+Deeker Jones another sin is that no anti-air missile since just about ever actualy have to hit its target to fataly damage it, they mainly rely on blast fragmentation and fragmentation pellets, basicaly, they are loaded up with steel balls similar to what you find in ball bearings. those two missiles was more then close enoth to make it look like a swizz cheese.
Theldras Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
Hmm, interesting, although that makes sense. Just a updated adaptation of flak, I suppose. If you want to shoot something that is moving very fast out of the air, may as well use the tried and true method, eh?

The real sin here is that 100 North Koreans would make their way into the United States on some sort of mission and not instantly be distracted by how awesome it is by comparison.
+xokocodo I feel like their brains would explode, the moment they realise everything they've been taught is a lie
+xokocodo In reality, the 100 North Koreans would defect immediately when they saw so many obese people.
I applaud your animus against north korea, but the reality is they have lots of agents operating abroad who don't defect or lose their shit at the idea of the western lifestyle.
so who came here after what happened on Jan 6, 2021?
I watch this movie today. It's just a timing coincidence.
So...in light of yesterday should there be some points removed now that we know that at least the Capitol can be successfully invaded by a bunch of untrained terrorists?
Yeah It should. I never thought that would happen! I always thought the US Capitol was the most protected and secure place in the United states!
acording to britt im a terrorist?. im joking but you cant call everyonne who attended the mass protest terrorists. 95% of the protesters where peaceful. Also more UNARMED protesters where killed that day than police. I dont agree with people entering the capitol without permission but i dont think we can call them terrorists becouse they did not commit any true terroristic actions. The only one you could classify it as a terrorist action is breaking into the capitol in the first place but as new reports come in alot of them where simply let in by capitol police and in some cases even escorted into the building. we cant point fingers and call people terrorists for being lead into a building by DC police.
@@ltmongoose1594 yes. Why, you think invading federal property and hunting for elected representatives to disrupt an election isn’t terrorism if you’re conservative?
@@ltmongoose1594 you wouldn’t happen to have any pictures of yourself at the Capitol, would you? ;)
The government officials are the real terrorists. They steal our national wealth and give it away to their friends, they rig the system in their favor and against average citizens, they invade and destabilize other countries, kill 10's over nothing. But you're worried about a couple hundred people storming the Capital and scaring the people who've been robbing the country blind for 30+ years. You're what they call a "useful idiot".
Everything Wrong with Tron and Tron: Legacy
The two Tron films mean alot to me, because Tron 3 is cancelled there will be not much more popularity in the series and it breaks my heart. However, a new tron game called Tron run/r was just released for PC and consoles so now would be the perfect time to make a sins video for the franchise and this is a stretch but regain popularity to the point where Disney would one day reconsider making the third film.
+Leopardmask Yeah they were supposed to begin filming back in October but when Tommorowland did not do well they decided to pull the plug on Tron 3, really sad if you think about it, They are making a 5th Pirates of the Caribbean movie, I love the pirate movies but the first one came out in 2003 and there is now 5; and the first Tron came out in 1982 and they don't want to make one last Tron film, really breaks my heart.

That movie was easily the worst thing in theaters when it first came out. The only way a bunch of North Koreans, or anyone else for that matter, could carry this out was if the entire U.S. Government was in on it.
You mean like 9/11?
Well if you were expecting accuracy in a movie where the White House is attacked then you only have yourself to blame.

One thing i noticed was how they got president asher's cerberus code. Didn't he constantly say he wouldn't let them have his? And after his son is safe he has no reason to give it up now, but magically off-screen he does?
“Also, I feel like all the research I’m doing for this has put me on some terror watch list with the NSA” AGAHAHAHAHAHSJFBSK
Oh no the President is dead what do we do!... oh right get a new one.
I started watching this with my 84 year old father today. After 40 minutes he asked to turn it off. He pointed out about 10 cinema sins himself as the reason why. I responded with about another 10 I noticed. Instead, we watched Jaws. One not mentioned, Andrews Air Force is about 20 miles from the Whitehouse, which any modern jet from take off to the whitehouse can do in about ~90 seconds. Also, isn't there a Marine barracks about 3 blocks away from the WH?
There’s also Fort Belvoir which the plane flew by considering it’s flight path, that Army base has SAM sites that would have taken a shot at it before it got anywhere near DC
8:10 why does he give a sin when he just confirmed that what they said was right
Idk
Anyone noticed how the VP looks like Mike Pence
Movie expects me to believe the North Koreans have an AC-130, much less ammunition for it, and that North Korea is a threat.
North Korea is a 3rd world country
+Accel Bolo And that the Air Force is doing nothing while an unmarked plane is casually flying by.
Or that they could fly into Washington DC without getting lit up like a Christmas tree before even reaching a populated area.
I have actually flown through the DC airspace. It is called the SIFRA. You have to file a separate flight plan and fly in through a pre determined gate. The entire time you are being monitored and one deviation from your flight plan and they launch fighters. That is for a single engine plane, much less a C-130
This didn't age well
kinda ironic 8 days into 2021
4:00 this is a A flare or decoy flare is an aerial infrared countermeasure used by a plane or helicopter to counter an infrared homing ("heat-seeking") surface-to-air missile or air-to-air missile. ... The aim is to make the infrared-guided missile seek out the heat signature from the flare rather than the aircraft's engines.
Yes but the missile that took out the helicopters would have to get past the flares. So why didn’t the Secret service use those to take out the plane. Plus I believe the missiles would also have been laser guided instead of heat seaking
13:16 Actually, ever since the end of the Cold War, the US has only had ~500 medium yield warheads - just a bit shy of half of the warheads on Earth.
Also, even if every nuclear warhead ever made had been a Tsar Bomb, and they'd all been set off simultaneously in a pattern designed to maximize destruction, it would only effect an area about the size of Germany. Nukes are pretty nasty, but they aren't doomsday weapons.
@large biff Yes.

That "undrivable blizzard" is about half the size of Ottawa's first snowfall, and the only affect it has had on drivers is a 15-20% increase on recreational handbrake use.
**reverse ding**
I've driven through worse in Ohio and we haven't had a really good snow in a decade.
This looks like summer to my Minnesotan eyes
gnid
Yes, but that scene occurs in the DC area, where nobody knows how to drive in the snow and the roads are clogged with stranded vehicles once more than an inch of snow accumulates.
Did anybody else thoroughly enjoy this movie in a "just suspend disbelief and a need for accuracy and fact cause it's just an action movie that happens to have great tension, fight sequences, and drama" kinda way?
Yes
Btw, the Korean plane deflecting missiles with a sparklers shield is actually the flares for the AC130. If you look at them form behind or from the front, the look like angel’s wings
*DO PULP FICTION, I DARE YA!*
9:09 - "And he just blindly shot a guy through a wall". Ding.
CinemaSins clearly have not played any first person shooter video games!
This went from popcorn fodder to documentary just like that!

10:10 "How do you think no one ever recognizes Clark Kent as Superman?"
Some movies are good to watch when you want to relax and see some shit hit the fan. The action in this movie is great. If you don't think about it too much, you can really enjoy it !
Obviously if you analyze it, it's not great but it depends on what you want to get out of it :)
You know, a lot of the time I don't appreciate what you have to say about movies I like, but this time, I couldn't agree more with almost all of your sins! I yelled at this movie for the vast majority of it while I was last watching it, and much of my uncomplimentary diatribe consisted of questions very similar to your own. Good job
7:31 hahaha I watched this today, and when I heard the doublecross agent give his reason for treason, I immediately knew I had to search for the cinema sins video. "What with all the wall streets and the corruptions and the things with the stuff, how could I not defect to North Korea?! it was a no brainer!" lol
I would pay for them to sin the 1968 version of Romeo and Juliet
Yes
+Hanna Barten Is that the one where the monk who was supposed to tell Romeo of "the plan" accidentally got locked in a house with a diseased old woman?
+Lumos that's the play in general
noneed4sleep64 Really? Of course, I knew that the messenger gets delayed, leading to the end we know, but I didn't know that a disease was the reason in the original play.
+Lumos To answer your question, the 1968 version was the one where they kept on using that song about roses, and everyone wore tights
1 billion sins for CinemaSins not have a Everything Wrong with: London has Fallen video. That has ten times more sins than this movie. First sin worth a billion sins being, the director seems to dare think an attack of that scale could even be possible.
Uh, guys, you already did "Everything Wrong With Die Hard".
12:01 - Don't think I've ever cringed that hard in my life.
The actor playing the Vice President looks a lot like Mike Pence. Hmmmm...
You can sum up this movie in one simple phrase: "A reliable man in a sea of incompetence". I enjoyed this movie, but holy shit were everyone but the main character fucking useless. The president giving away parts of the code willy-nilly, people jumping the gun on major decisions and even Morgan Freeman being a massive fuck-up. I don't even want to touch on the very thing that sparked the plot; no aircraft would ever, ever get that close to the White House.
What I can't believe is not that they actually made a movie as unutterably lame as this, but that they made a clone of it at the same time "White House Down" AND they've made a sequel to it where they take a giant shit all over London. I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it any more.
+ludocrat I've heard that White House Down is the better movie between the two. It has the same feel as Die Hard.
I know its only a film but The London one made out terrorists could infiltrate the met police, British military and other organisations to a stupid degree.
The sin count would be a record!
London Has Fallen has 1 redeeming quality in it being the 1 take during the assault on the compound
Yeah, there is no chance that that AC-130 Spectre could get past the DC airspace, much less get into DC and start firing. Even with the co-operation of high level generals it's still a bunch of bull.
Plus I believe the White House has some bullet based AA, IE flak guns, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
And a third thing, even IF the US withdrew from the peninsula, Japan, I believe has a treaty with Korea of Mutual Defense and Assistance. Plus if it was just North Korea they would have no chance due to the fact that A: South Korea is one of the toughest nuts to crack, and B: NK is still using cold war era tech.
Now you've enacted a spin-off Tokyo has fallen which takes place at the same time
NK may have Cold War era weaponry, but just like you can kill someone with a bow and arrow these days, those things, given enough numbers, could wreck some havock in South Korea.
The Generalissimo:9/11. Pentagon. Reconsider.
@@jamesmeritt6800 You were already told, why this coparison is nonsense somewhere in another comment. Militrary aircraft versus civilian airliner. Slight diffrence, don't you think? Plus the fact, that USAF is way more cautious nowadays, than back in 2001, partially because of 9/11. Stop talking BS please, and think before writing a comment.
Also have a nice day.
Ahaha, little edit: Just found another comment, where you said why this scene is BS, and actually use 9/11 as a reason. Guess you're just trolling.
ole brauns: hold that thought. There were still 2 Air Force bases,3 Navy, and 2 army-that I have personally been to. There are also 2 international airports and multiple smaller ones. Airports have surprisingly good RADAR and one is across the river from a Naval base, and a mile down and across the river from, what at the time, was an Air Force (now Joint) base. The Pentagon is a couple of miles to the south. The chances are better that a large commercial jetliner get in (one of the international airports has its approach over Pentagon parking lots) than any unannounced military aircraft. Don’t just compare aircraft, consider were it is. Idiot.
6:08 lol pretty sure they would just say "oh its that guy again" xD
"Setting off all nuclear warheads in the US, which is the overwhelming majority of nuclear warheads"
Russia: am I a joke to you?
can you just label the film as dumb and sin it for every second of its run time, saints row 4 has a more believable attack on the white house and that game has alines, anil probes and president that used to be a crime boss and ends up with superpowers.
All of the stuff that went down with the Trump supporters storming the almost zero security a couple of days ago means you probably need to remove most of the sins. If they were in any way trained there would have been carnage
I just saw the third movie yesterday, there are a few things that confuse me, like military inaccuracies. But the most if it is really good
“Oh my god it’s.... the same guy it was before.” 😂
and the capitol got attacked by bunch of people without guns
Harvey Dent has the worst luck with women
subtract one sin for sparkler shield that shit is called chaff
+688Radio No, its not. Those where flares, easily recognizable by the fact that they were frickin burning! Chaff would do absolutely NOTHING against an IR("heat seaker")missile.
Marcel Ebert your right my apologies lol
Chaff specifically counters radar-guided missiles and looks like a cloud of metallic fibres.
The sin is for the heat-seeking missiles detonating upon reaching the flares. In reality the flares would simply cause them to lose track of the original target and veer off course.
I see they sent the entire might of USA air Force....no wait one plane🤣😂😁😤🤮😱🤧
Its not even a hijacked or disguised plane, they just send a war plane and it makes it to the White House. Realistically, that plane wouldn’t even make it to the shore before it gets taken down.
No F-22 pilot is going to pull up alongside an unknown aircraft that is well-known for having side-mounted weapons. And with two of them, one might, but not both. One would be sitting in back with its gun in a perfect firing position. So the gunship at the beginning gets one F-22 at most but then immediately goes down to the other. The Secret Service would never have allowed the president to overturn their plans when they retreated to the bunker. The South Korean minister (or whoever it was) would've been taken to another secure location, but not with the president no matter what the president said. The Secret Service wouldn't have come boiling out of the White House into the open. Finally, even if something like Cerberus did exist (it does not), there's no way they'd make it activatable if the missile wasn't already active. So unless the missiles are at least preparing to launch, it would be impossible to activate Cerberus. And finally, even if the missile could spun up and Cerberus activated, it's not going to cause the warheads to go off. The most it could do would be to cause the rocket boosters to explode which, though a big explosion, is going to cause a local radioactive hazard ... a lot of them. And in the meantime every submarine we have with ballistic missiles will be preparing to glass all of North Korea and our bomber fleet will be headed over to re-glass it when the first sheet of glass has finally cooled.
Do an EWW for The DaVinci Code.
That ac-130 part will always bother me.
@Nobody Knows
Still does not make sense an unidentified C-130 managed to pass unchecked the entire USAF, USN, and US Army base to the no fly zone around White House.
@Nobody Knows
That what i am saying. It too funny the movie show how easy is to infiltrate White House airspace with a huge transport aircraft.
There is a part around 4:25 that was skipped but one of the guys with a bolt action rifle fires two shots without cycling the bolt. Was cut out of the video but it's in the movie.
