Stargate Universe was that for a tv show. Lazy unemployed fat guy who lives in his mom's basement turns out to be better at Ancient Tech than Daniel Jackson and other guys who have been studying it for decades. He finds out by playing a videogame meant to serve as a SG recruitment tool. He just needed to apply himself just like mommy always said!!!
At least Will didn't use his supermath skills to spy on girls in the shower when everyone's lives were depending on him fixing things.
>At least Will didn't use his supermath skills to spy on girls in the shower when everyone's lives were depending on him fixing things. >implying you wouldn't
I'd have him flogged as a boy for wasting valuable time and resources that should be spent making the ship more operational so we don't all die. The fact that Universe pretended to be the more mature take on SG and then had the military commander not give a damn about maintaining the order of command nor about the morale of his soldiers, just so they could have a Porky's episode, was a huge nail in the coffin for the show.
I frickin love dunkin, guy. whatuchu talkin about?

Willhunting's reaction to this never rang true for me. It seemed like the sort of thing a smartarse like him would immediately see through and react derisively to.
Unfortunately, women don’t usually care if you’re smart. Attractiveness and money are what matters most to them, making this entire bar scene unrealistic.
some women do care, more so for actual long term relationships and if they are smart themselves though. No smart person wants to put up with an idiot for the rest of their life.
Working to amass money in order to impress women is one of the stupidest things you can do. You are literally enslaving yourself for pussy. If you were really smart you would stop and think about what exactly you’re doing here on this planet. Forget about women and actually enjoy life.
False, women are attracted to "alpha" behaviour, when you intellectually mock your lesser she would still be attracted to you. Money is simply a way to show you have power. But if you use your brain to be the biggest dick swinging motherfricker in a bar she would still get wet.
it's a melo drama chick flick. it's an objectively terrible film. no one would ever seriously write a script like this and get a movie made. matt damon have serious penis sucking skills
>look mom i'm a heckin' racist on 4chud!!
we get it, some black dude fricked your high school oneitis boo hoo big fricking deal
face it, black people can be as smart as whites
heck, just from memory i can name plenty smart guys like Neil DeGrasse Tyson
how do you cope with that you nazi chud?
how do you cope Neil has a phd in physics while you jerk off to anime girls and shitpost on Cinemaphile?
your ancestors fought bravely in the world wars and you're here, being a petty low life on the internet
>dude I'm much smarter than PhD students despite having no education AND I'm charismatic and have amazing social skills AND I'm tough as frick so men automatically respect me BUT I am a virgin NEET because of uhhhhh society bro!!!
I love how they threw in howard zinn in this scene as if that was like some high level shit that you needed to dig deep to read or something. So everyone in the audience who probably read it in high school or middle school could nod and laugh or something probably
it works because matt damon and ben affleck are playing themselves and having a good time. doesn't really make sense that a math genius would act like a run-of-the-mill townie dumbass that starts fights with "yuppies" but I guess it speaks to those sorts of people who are wasting their weekends away drinking and not really improving themselves.
>you could have gotten a better education from renting books at the library than from going to harvard >how do I know this? oh well im a super genius who can rapidly read any book and immediately understand its material and retain it perfectly and who has a top level understanding of advanced mathematics just from reading about it
this movie really just seems like a a power fantasy cope flick for muh "smart but lazy" bozo nerds
yeah and it’s fawkin kino

Captcha knows what's up.
It's not your fault
I know. It's yours.
It’s not your fault

It ain't his fault cause my boys wicked smaht
Literally me but I’m also cute so girls are easy to get.

intelligence, attractiveness, and finanical success are basically one in the same trait
Wrong. As an example, there’s a lot of Bitcoin millionaires out there that are rich out of sheer luck.
ok we'll see how long they hold on to that wealth

frick you
it's a melo drama chick flick. it's an objectively terrible film. no one would ever seriously write a script like this and get a movie made. matt damon have serious penis sucking skills
No. The movie works just fine as it is. Change Damon's character to a black person and suddenly the movie really makes no sense.
Fricking hell you need to get a life.

I frickin love dunkin, guy. whatuchu talkin about?
Frick his mouth.
I wouldn't say a single word to him.
I would listen to what he had to say, and that's what no-one did.
What's a contention?
>You should read Howard Zinn
NPC detected.
You can read my mind all you want but you will still be unable to grasp meanings and faith because you are an aimless fornicator.
the movie sucks because they made him so cartoonishly smart
this. the movie is a fantasy and anyone with half a brain can see how unrealistic it is
I love how they threw in howard zinn in this scene as if that was like some high level shit that you needed to dig deep to read or something. So everyone in the audience who probably read it in high school or middle school could nod and laugh or something probably
I loved that too, fellow smart intellectual!
Hey, do u leik bananas?
Cause that would be banananas.
At least my father loved me
He didn't. He left and started a second family. And then left again and has now started a third family
>"I'M BETTER THAN YOU BECAUSE I GOT THE SAME EDUCATION AS YOU WITH A LIBRARY CARD WHILE YOU SPEND MONEY AT HARVARD!"
--an actual Harvard grad
Sure,sure,sure.
Maybe you could explain compenshun for those among us that don't understand.
Matt Damon is relentlessly handsome.
I check

Has anyone in history ever gone to a bar and tried to pick up chicks by paraphrasing a history book?
The whole scenario is so absurd

>how do I know this? oh well im a super genius who can rapidly read any book and immediately understand its material and retain it perfectly and who has a top level understanding of advanced mathematics just from reading about it
Discombobulate!
I fricking hate this movie and more specifically matts moronic boston accent is like nails on a chalkboard
>WICKED SMAHHHT I'M FROM FAHKIN BOSTIN
>PAHK THE CAHHH IN HAHVAHD YAHHHD
>fowuh suppah I err uhh want a pahty plattah
Anyone else got that the opening of the movie is Will's POV as he studies math as a kid, with tears in his eyes from the abuse?
I thought it was neat
