Magic Looms and Bullets!
Lessons I Learned from “Wanted”:
1. There are magic looms which generate names of people who should be killed
2. People actually listen to this magic loom
3. Bullets can go round in a full circle, and have the velocity/force to penetrate about 10 heads while going in a circle. I’m know nothing about Physics, but something about that makes me think maybe that’s not very possible.
4. Morgan Freeman’s response to James McAvoy’s question (”Where do all these names come from!?”), “It’s been working for a thousand years-ears-ars…. *cut to scene: Hooded thousand-year-ago-men using the loom*,” is very informative and apt.
5. Bullets swerve at a 45 degree angle to the right, then swerve back to the left at a 45 degree angle. Again, no Physics God, but…
6. James McAvoy looks remarkably like Frodo or Spiderman.
i.e Elijah Wood or Toby Maguire
All in all, “Wanted” was a more vulgar/violent and less funny version of “Karate Kid”
