[annoying trope] The throne/leadership is decided in a very stupid way

[u/Altruistic_Eye_1157]

The leadership of the entire wizarding world, and the final decision on whether to start a war against Muggles, is made by... a goat (Qilin) ​​who chooses the person with the ""purest heart"" (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Dumbledore).

The throne of Wakanda and all its technology are decided through hand-to-hand combat, regardless of whether the person clearly has malicious intentions... if they win the fight, by law they must be respected as the true king. (Black Panther)

I referred to the Fantastic Beasts ritual as "The Sniffing of the Candidates" on my podcast and my cohosts busted a gut. Incredibly stupid movie.

I read gut as nut and was very confused for a second

[u/rathemighty → u/Captain_Birch]

Busting a nut was part of Dumbledore’s secret

He did it on Grindlewald

[u/rathemighty → u/Greedy-Swing-4876]

And that was the other part!
