Last Action Hero/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

Line 94:
* Where did Benedict get the idea, that when he kills Arnie, Slater automatically dies with him? If an actor dies, it doesn't change the movies in which he appears. At the end it's even shown that his plan wouldn't have worked: Bengt Ekerot, who played Death in The Seventh Seal, was long dead when they produced Last Action Hero.
** Maybe he thought that, given the "differentness" of the real world from his own, and the fact that his world is contingent on our world, that a change in our world would result in a change in his. That, or because as a [[Card-Carrying Villain]] (by his own admission), killing Schwarzenegger is just the most natural thing for him to do.
** Also theoretically, it was a gambit to get Slater to come stop him, so he could actually torment and kill Slater.
* Why would Benedict intentionally start collecting villian who's goals differed from his own and whom (assuming the came through powers intact) would have been impossible for him to control? Of the villians he listed he could perhaps have kept pace with Hannibal Lector but Dracula? Even Hitler would (if he could prove he was who he was) would have resources available to him that Benedict wouldn't. And King Kong? Really? I'm fairly certain 50 foot gorillas don't make deals with cyclopses.
** He might not have necessarily actually gone and collected those actual villains, he's just trying to illustrate the massive sort of power he has and the nightmarish things he could do with it... he's trying to make it sound as horrible as possible.
