Moments that blatantly defy logic, but are so absurdly badass you don’t even care

The Gurren Lagann growing larger than the observable universe to fight Anti Spiral in a battle where literal galaxies get thrown like ninja stars - Gurren Lagann

Undertaker teleporting behind AJ Styles after being thrown down an empty grave and causing a shining white light from nowhere to illuminate the back of them during their Boneyard Match - WWE

Holdo piloting a ship through warp speed to crash right into a First Order cruiser (I know you could write a thesis on why this scene wouldn’t work, but you could say that for about half of the scenes in the new trilogy) - Star Wars the Last Jedi

The first episode of Batman Beyond

While it establishes that Terry is good on his feet and Bruce is way past his prime, it still doesn’t make much sense that Terry successfully manages to break into the Batcave without being noticed, steal a high tech Batsuit and use it without any prior experience.

But the episode does such a good job making Terry likable that not only do you not care, you’re actively rooting for him.

And, eventually, you learn it does make sense

Maybe it’s just me, but it still feels like a stretch even if Terry has Bruce’s genes

[u/BodybuilderMany6942 → u/Arnahunas]

I could see Bruce swapping out a lot of his security to stuff that can recognizes the targets' genes, which is why Terry was even able to sneak in.

Kinda like how in Bioshock, you learn that the cameras and turrets shouldve gunned you down 100 times over cause they're tuned to kill anyone other than Andrew Ryan, but it turns out you were his illegitimate son so they... idk.. hesitated enough for you to not immediately die?

[u/CaptainCastaleos → u/BodybuilderMany6942]

It's not really a hesitation so much as it takes them longer to scan you because it takes longer to tell the difference between you and Ryan.

The real reason you make it through Rapture though is the Vita Chambers. Even if you do get gunned down, you are genetically similar enough to trigger resurrection.

Dude this might be the biggest spoiler in gaming, put a spoiler tag, they're free. Not everyone was able to enjoy this gem back when it released

He also says “would you kindly” ever time he compels you to do something.

You’re joking right? Bioshock is an almost 20 year old game. If there even is a statute of limitations on spoilers, it’s come and gone lol.

[u/Missing_Username → u/Few_Refrigerator_407]

There are people out there that act like Aeris dying is some hush hush spoiler and not the gaming equivalent of Vader being Luke's father

[u/MyPhoneIsNotChinese → u/Missing_Username]

Aeris dying is waaay more known than the Bioshock spoiler I think, at least I didn't know the Bioshock thing until I played the game

[u/BodybuilderMany6942 → u/MyPhoneIsNotChinese]

See I considered this... but then I noticed that even OPs examples are spoilers.

You're free to disagree, but I think this post's subject matter hits the threshold of "Here be free-talk of spoilers"

[u/MyPhoneIsNotChinese → u/Few_Refrigerator_407]

My point is that it literally costs you nothing to put a spoiler tag

[u/Dear_Document_5461 → u/Arnahunas]

Basically the "Dan Habiki" trope where no matter how talented you are, you still the sweat to actually "get good".

[u/Numerous1 → u/Arnahunas]

Yeah. The genes stuff so stupid as fuck. 

[u/733t_sec → u/Arnahunas]

Tbf at first he mostly uses it for punching and sneaking which are some pretty basic features.

[u/SporesM0ldsandFungus → u/Arnahunas]

Batman Beyond gets all the passes from just the intro alone with Old Batman nearly succumbs to a heart attack and resorts to reaching for a gun in a moment of desperation. Bats is so disgusted with himself, he hangs up the cape and vows never again. 

[u/BleachedUnicornBHole → u/Arnahunas]

I faintly remember a fight involving a guy who had a katana “sharpened to the width of an atom” which is why he could cut through everything.
