Q: In Dog Day Afternoon why didn't Sonny and Sal kill the hostages?

In Dog Day Afternoon with Al Pacino from 1975 I am wondering why when the cops showed up Sonny just made it look like a publicity stunt instead of someone who actually means business why didn't he just actively start killing hostages to demand his private jet out of the country instead of playing...

Q: Simpsons: Which season/episode or movie was this Homer Simpson brain x-ray from?

I'm trying to look for the original source (season/episode or movie) of the following image:

Memor-X

@MovieReel i don't believe it is because you have another episode showing that he has a normal size brain which has a crayon in it

and because of how Dr Hibbert holds it it was missed for so long. so he's had a normal brain size all those times

steelersquirrel

you might find that decisions can vary wildly from question to question depending on the voter. ~> What are the guidelines for the voters? — user939 20 hours ago

Memor-X

also the size of that crayon would probably have killed a small brain like that

steelersquirrel

This is one of the reasons why I have lost enthusiasm for the site

Memor-X

@steelersquirrel ambiguity of the rules being left to each person's oppinion?

steelersquirrel

03:24

There just seems to be inconsistent voting and VTC. Maybe it's like that on every site and I am just realising it more recently

@Memor-X Yes. It should be based on community policy rather than personal opinion, should it not?

Memor-X

@steelersquirrel down votes are generally opinion based though there are unjustifiable opinions. Close Votes ideally should be about either using the pre-set close votes which the custom ones really aught to link to meta or using the off-topic list defined in the help center which can list more off-topic reasons you can have the present reasons for

i think you only get like 4 pre-set reasons but you can use, like the tour, to store other reasons and copy and paste them into the custom close reason when you VTC

there's is also and addon for some browsers

steelersquirrel

It just sends mixed messages, especially to new users. I really thought that I had a firm grasp on what is off or on topic and it just seems like it's really confusing lately. Like, I rarely VTC anything anymore, because I simply don't know anymore and I am certainly not going to jump on a closing bandwagon just because a few others do.

@Memor-X Right. That's what down votes are for, but it seems like some users also throw on a close vote sometimes as well and that's where the confusion lies. Other community members see that and it sets a bad example for not only the OP, but for the other community members who vote.

That's why I always thought that you should have more rep before you're allowed to cast close votes. There should be a general community consensus on close voting that goes by policy, not opinion.

Memor-X

@steelersquirrel i DV and VTC when someone posts an off-topic question and has the badge for reading the tour because the point of that badge is that you're supposed to read the dam thing not skip to the bottom for a free badge. my reasoning for the DV is that research effort also count to reading rules that have been presented to you and a tour badge says they were

sometimes a downvote with a close vote can also come from wanting to discourage asking those questions and hoping to get an answer before it's closed which is why i also downvote id request answers on Anime and Manga (also falls under "not useful" since the id request would be removed)

steelersquirrel

@Memor-X Sure. That's how it should be. As long as it follows the community guidelines for close votes.

Memor-X

03:44

@steelersquirrel opinion in the use of Close Votes probably comes from interpretation of the close vote reason. for instance with your id request guidelines, from my limited understanding (correct me if i am wrong) you just give a list of suggestions of what to include so....

Plot details of any scenes you remember - "an anime movie about mecha and a boy"
Descriptions of any characters or locations - "the boy is a whiny little bitch surrounded by girls"
Where you watched the movie or TV show - "at home in australia"
When you watched the movie or TV show - "at night on SBS"
Any idea of how old it was - "when i was a child"
Any idea of country of origin (if known) - "japan because it's anime"
Whether it was animated or not - "it's anime"
Any other distinctive detail - "there was a scene at the end of one episode of a woman having sex"

while low effort is really only downvote worthy but is it close worthy because they fill out the entire list?

some might say yes because it's low effort, some might say no because there's enough in there to id the series

steelersquirrel

That's exactly where the confusion lies. Some say yes and some say no. There needs to be a set policy on this or a re-iteration of what the policy is for the community, so that everyone can be on the same page when submitting close votes. As for me, I really don't have a clue anymore as to what's what ;)

That's why I rarely cast close votes anymore. Like I said, I thought that I had a firm grasp on things and the way that I have seen some voting go the past few months, I am just more confused, so I basically just skip everything in the queue unless it's a clear cut case.

I think that I saw one yesterday that a close vote for trivia was on it and Catija made a comment that it's not trivia and it shouldn't be closed as such. If she wouldn't have made that comment, I think that there would have been more close votes on it due to bandwagon close voting rather than actually reading the question and evaluating it as it should be.

I admittedly didn't look at the history on it, so I don't know, but I have seen that happen several times these past few months.

On a lighter note... Kickboxer is getting ready to start! Woohoo!!!

@DhanrajKumar If you want to earn those badges, u should ask 100 questions on separate days. Or 30 questions on 30 separate days with a positive score. If you post 30 questions in a week or 100 question in a month with a positive score, then you will not be eligible to earn those badges.

I am not posting for badges..........

SS.

I like badges. @steelersquirrel @DhanrajKumar

@DhanrajKumar OK. No problem.

@Ankit has got a couple of socratics...

steelersquirrel

@DhanrajKumar You might want to reword your question to ask about the cover of the Godfather novel as a prop instead of a plot explanation so you don't attract any more close votes.

Ankit Sharma

@SS. I got 2 but I didn't really tried for it

Dr R Dizzle

Mornin' all

Ankit Sharma

@steelersquirrel done already

@DrRDizzle good afternoon

steelersquirrel

@AnkitSharma Cool!

It should still probably be reworded as something like..."Why did filmmakers choose to show this particular edition of The Godfather novel in the movie?" I don't know.

SS.

@AnkitSharma I would not be so serious about badges. But it takes hours to frame a nice question to me. So I prefer to post 1 question per day.

Ankit Sharma

@steelersquirrel that will make it a different question altogether

@SS. I have posted more then one many times I think

steelersquirrel

@SS. Agreed. Questions take a long time for me to put together as well.

SS.

@AnkitSharma You know.. All men are not the same.

Ankit Sharma

@SS. I just ask when I have a question, I hardly wait except if ToW is on the way

steelersquirrel

07:52

@AnkitSharma Hmmmm...I don't know, then. Is it on topic as it is?

SS.

@AnkitSharma I search for the answers myself before posting. It takes time. I don't like DV's for lack of research effort.

steelersquirrel

@SS. Exactly! Then it's frustrating when you think that you have a great question and then it's answered really easily on Google ;)

SS.

Do you know how many DV's I got in Hinduism.SE on my questions and answers? @AnkitSharma @steelersquirrel

@steelersquirrel True.

Ankit Sharma

@SS. no

SS.

@AnkitSharma Guess a number...

Ankit Sharma

07:57

15

SS.

@AnkitSharma lol.. Our favorite number.. But no.

Ankit Sharma

lol

steelersquirrel

@SS. I don't know... more than 10?

SS.

@steelersquirrel @AnkitSharma This is the number. ^^

Ankit Sharma

disappointing, even my top voted answer there have 11 downvotes

SS.

08:01

Ankit Sharma

Time for sleep. Goodnight all :)

Dr R Dizzle

Early reactions for Wonder Woman seem to be really positive.

A J

@steelersquirrel Good Night.

ohh

@DrRDizzle Hey there! When did you arrive? (Just don't say 25 years ago. Got bored of this joke.)

Ankit Sharma

@steelersquirrel good night

@DrRDizzle that's good. There is no good superheroine film yet

@SS. I see

Memor-X

@AnkitSharma yeh but i though i might as well answer it explaining why people might ever think it's ever based off something else. it's like how people think other works get based off Star Wars Episode IV because they start similar and follow a similar plot

in reality Star Wars followed the Hero's Journey to build the plot

Ankit Sharma

hmmm

Dr R Dizzle

@AJ 24 years and 9 months ago.

@AnkitSharma Yup. And it's not just people inside WB saying it's good, it's actual critics who have seen it.

I'm hopeful.

Ankit Sharma

@Ixrec :D

@DrRDizzle me too

Ixrec

08:47

Me three

Dr R Dizzle

One thing I am surprised by is that they're mostly saying that Gal Gadot is actually really good in the role. She's not exactly a natural actress, so it's good to hear that she gives a good performance.

BTW, with all the will in the world, using the Slack app is an absolute ball ache for me, so don't expect me to keep up with the convo in Slack. If anyone needs me or wants me to see something, ping me, otherwise I'm not gonna see it.

Ixrec

That's fine, there's more than enough sexually repressed users in there to keep the conversation going

Ankit Sharma

4 hours ago, by Ankit Sharma

I could have used slack for that but I rage quit it 😂

@Ixrec didn't got that one

Ixrec

(Seriously, every other SE chat user spends their first day on Slack using curse words and talking about naked people for some reason)

Ankit Sharma

lol

Q: Why the strange voice?

In The GodFather, why is the line "I talked to Barzini" given in such as strange voice? Here is the clip off YouTube I've heard it was dubbed, but why would it be?

dialogue the-godfather editing

Ixrec

@DrRDizzle I remember a comment in the last round of reactions about Chris outshining her, so this is a relief to me

Ankit Sharma

@Ixrec You don't like her to shine in the film O.o

Dr R Dizzle

@Ixrec We were so busy seeing if we could use curse words and talk about naked people that we never stopped to consider if we should.

@AnkitSharma That's not what he's saying. He's saying that earlier reactions seemed to indicate that Chris Pine was giving a much better performance than Gal Gadot was, so he's relieved to hear that actually, Gal is really good here.

Ixrec

@AnkitSharma that's literally the exact opposite of what I said, lol

Ankit Sharma

@Ixrec ooops

@DrRDizzle got it now
