Plot Armor is the result of bad script writing, when a character or ship keeps going into ever more impossible scenarios and survives for really no other concievable or rational reason other than they are the star of the show, and can’t die, or else the story would be over.
James Bond is completely coated in that shit, he is like Achilles, dipped in some magic formula, but instead of being held by the ankles, he was held by the liver. That man needs AA.
Like, in every damn scene, I can like Marcus Aurelius look at it and say to myself “Never assume something’s impossible because you find it hard. You should recognize that, if it’s humanely possible, you can do it too.”
I might be able to pull off one of the moves with that mentality, but am fairly certain that in under 30 seconds after that, I would just be dead.
James Bond, he just like, he runs, and as he runs, without stopping, hits someone with his fist, and they fall down unconscious. Am I the only guy here who can’t do that? Without a weapon, using fisticuffs, it is gonna take me a while to do that, and in the process, my knuckles are gonna hurt bad, just punching someone in the head. I’m actually kind of a cheating pusdy, so it be all neck punches and finger stabs to the eyes, and trapping at dirt and throeing it at whoever I’m fighting, and trying to knee him in the balls, and I would make little girl screaching noises while doing so, and likely still manage to get really hurt in the process. I might get so worked up I will sweat, so it will be impossible to hold me, just swirm out of any hold you put me in, my shirt half off, and then just lay on my back kicking frantically in the general direction of my opponent, using a kicking shield to stay safe.
If there are two opponents, I’m just fucked. Especially if they are armed, and I’m not.
I don’t know, maybe all guys are able to do single punch knockouts. I can’t.
I also am amazed, he knows how to drive and fly literally anything. Like, he was just allowed to hang out in military basis and walk up to any aircraft or naval ship, and tell them to teach him how to operate it, just in case he ever needs to know. Never once seen him grab a gun, or jump in a military vehicle or plane, and look at it stumped and confused, bailing from it after deciding it is just too damn complicated. I’ve seen James Bond pilot Russian planes with his fucking knees in the mountains, with nukes attached to the craft, the rear pilot strangling him to death, and he still manages to out maneuver another experienced Russian pilot who knows the make and capabilities of that craft, that is firing on him… Using just his knees.
Even Marcus Aurelius is looking at that calling bullshit.
Yes, I feel emasculated because I can’t be James Bond, like I’m naked in school, kneeling before class trying to cover my privates and everyone is laughing. Women everywhere are dissapointed I’m not leaping out of airplanes and skiing off snowy rooftops into their balcony window, to expose my government issue Casanova Grade cock, then punching guys unconscious, including her husband, out in single blows on the way out. I think that’s what women want, right? Philosophers Stone?
