It’s straightforward to overlook, right here within the ham-fisted blockbuster days, that screenwriters might be fairly intelligent. In spite of everything, most of them didn’t get into screenwriting to specify precisely how this superhero ought to wink into the digicam — they’re artists. We might not even notice simply how good they’re till method later as a result of their sharpest traces lower proper over the tops of our heads. Perhaps it’s a soiled joke you’re too younger to know, a plot twist that doesn’t reveal its true intentions till additional viewings, or only a actually good pun.
For Redditor RedHeadRedeemed, for instance, it was “the start of the film Dragonheart the place Prince Einon says, ‘The peasants are revolting!’ and his guard, Brok, says, ‘They’ve all the time been revolting, Prince… however now they’re rebelling!’” they defined to r/Motion pictures. “I all the time thought that was an odd little bit of dialogue as a result of ‘revolting’ and ‘rebelling’ imply the identical factor. … It solely simply now hit me that the guard was referring to the opposite definition of ‘revolting,’ as in ‘disgusting.’ How in all of the years I’ve seen this film did I not notice this??”
They then requested, “What, for you guys, was a line of dialogue you didn’t perceive or absolutely get till watching a film later or at an older age?” and their fellow Redditors have been more than pleased to clear up all types of earlier cinematic misunderstandings.
