# Following on from that, what sort of idiot thought it was a good idea to have a ball rolling transit system, though they never collided in the movie, did you see how many there were flying through the sky in the rollercoaster scene? Am I supposed to believe that these things never collide?<br />I would go on about my theories on why the world is inhabited by robots but thats for the WMG page.
* [[Wiki Magic|So get on with the WMGing/explaining already]]! At least some (and possibly many) people would like to read it. And just so you know next time, it's bad form (and could be confused for [[Astroturfing]]) to format the text the way it was originally done, separating a single entry with new lines each sentence and multiple layers of asterisks. I do apologize if the reformatting changed the meaning of anything you said in the process of making it more clear and conforming it to wiki markup standards and format.
** Dude I hope you don't plan on watching any other kids' movies anytime soon - [[Up|That's not enough balloons to lift a house!]] [[Shrek|How are the dragon and the donkey able to have babies?]] [[Despicable Me|How does the Shrink Ray not violate the Law of Conservation of Mass?]] [[Wall WALL-E|How is the robot still working after 700 YEARS!?!?!]] It's a ''kid's fantasy movie''. Just apply some [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]], repeat the [[MST3K Mantra]] and calm down. As long as the universe follows the rules it has set for itself (which ''Robots'' does) other violations of reality are acceptable.
*** Um, he has every right to question the more "unusual/puzzling" aspects of kids' movies. That's what [[It Just Bugs Me]] is all about. Just becuase there's a [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]] doesn't mean someone isn't going to stop and say "Wait, this doesn't make any sense!" even within the context of the movies' set "rules". The [[MST3K Mantra]] can only go so far before people are going to ask things like- [[Robots|"What happens if all the robots start to break down (IE: Who or what fixes them)?"]], [[Godzilla|"Where on earth did Baby Godzilla come from?"]], and the like. People nitpick movies. It's just something they do. Why? Who knows? Who cares? If someone wants to question the logic of a kids' movie, that's their right to do so. Does it make the movie any more or less enjoyable if you nitpick it? No, of course not. You can ''still'' enjoy a movie and still go "What the hell were they thinking?" at certain less-than-logical moments.
