Wie een beetje serieus en sceptisch naar een film kijkt, weet al dat er soms dingen gebeuren die eigenlijk helemaal nergens op slaan. Want villains hebben snode plannen, voeren deze uit en blijkt als de eind aftiteling begint eigenlijk nergens op te slaan. Daar over gaat dit artikel van de website Cracked.com die hier zes voorbeelden van aanhaalt, voorbeelden zoals:

#4. The Avengers -- What's With Loki's Shitty Army?

Loki didn't prove himself to be a very physically powerful villain in the original Thor movie, and it only gets worse in The Avengers, in which he gets his ass handed to him by virtually every single member of the team. Even the completely human ones, Black Widow and Hawkeye, manage to outsmart him and explode him, respectively. But Loki is a big-picture kind of guy, not a common street brawler, right? Well, not really. Let's talk about his army.

So Loki's idea is to take over the planet with aliens, which is a classic plan. 10/10. Unfortunately, his massive space army is made up of two types of units. First there are these awesome dragon things which seem to do nothing except demonstrate how easily Hulk, Thor, and Iron Man can kill gigantic creatures.

Next up are the regular space soldiers. They're fragile, undisciplined maniacs wearing armor too weak to block Earth arrows -- a weapon so obsolete that only one man on the planet still uses them. They each carry a laser rifle, which may seem dangerous at first. But then one of them hits Captain America -- an Earthling pretty humanish in his durability -- right in the stomach, and it only seems to make him cranky. Regular bullet rifles, like the ones everyone here has, seem to be far more effective.

You know who had a stronger army than Loki? Any country on the planet. Maybe even any volleyball team holding frying pans. Low-thread-count pillowcases do more damage than Loki's army. And to make matters worse, while his space legions are getting the shit kicked out of them, it's revealed they all share the same off switch. So let's sum up the main features of these dreaded Earth conquerors: They're killable morons with non-lethal weapons who all instantly die when someone flips a lever. Even for a god of mischief, that's kind of silly.
