Flubber/YMMV: Difference between revisions

* [[Designated Hero]]: Professor Brainard is supposed to be "comically" absent-minded, but just comes off as a self-centered jerk.

** Or audiences are just full of more oversensitive fussbudgets than they were when the original was made.

* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: Brainard seems like he's being a jerk by repeatedly trying to show off Flubber to Sara when he should just be trying to make it up to her for missing the wedding. But she's also the president of the college, so she's the one he needs to be pitching his plans to "save the college" to, relationship or not. Their relationship happens to be a really inconvenient coincidence (and a good example of why inter-office relationships are usually forbidden). Maybe less "fridge brilliance" and more "stuff that should have been clearer to the audience."

* [[Fridge Logic]]: How Weebo can fly ''before'' Brainard invents the Flubber hover technology? And why wouldn't this work with cars?
