Olympus Has Fallen : 1000 Things I learned from Olympus Has Fallen (spoilers)

1. It takes invaders 13 minutes to take over the white house and our response time is only 15 min.
2. You don't fire the guy that saves your life from your car going over the edge just because he couldn't save your wife.
3. The US Treasury is really that close to the white house.
4. An effective way of killing someone a knife to their head
5. The president needs a better password for the missile defense system if they hacked it in only a few hours
6. Leave it to the Admiral to blame the guy that just took out many highly trained men that he should stand down after that man told you to pull the Navy seals back
7. I would vote for Morgan Freeman
8. There are way to many secret plans on the internet of the white house
9. The leaders of our country have potty mouths
10. It is smart to stand in the door way shooting at someone that has a Gatling gun
11. The secret service doesn't believe in bullet proof vests

Come on there has to be more then this that people found out that I missed

Wow, Its obvious you have never seen a thread like this before. All my points were not to be taken seriously. You are responding like you think this movie was real. I meant no disrespect if you thought this movie was factual, I was just having fun. Sorry if I offended you.

No reason to apologize to what is an obvious studio shill. 5 will get you 10 that freak is related to someone in the production company.

I have friends in the film industry but I am not asking them to help me out. I am what you call a screenwriter because I have pitched my film script to 2 different film companies and neither one of them have nibbled onto my idea. Some people have stated if you want to do something then you pretty much have to do it yourself. I would definitely love to create and make the film that I have written. The problem is that when you do not have the money or the funding to afford to make the film it makes it hard to do.

I liked the film because it was a very good action flick to watch. There were some things that were inconsistent to be honest with you about it.

That General would have been court martialed because if a team of Navy SEALS were sent on a mission that killed off pretty much several teams he would not have a job anymore to be honest with you about it. Plus, I would have sent the SEALS in different ways into the White House. At least one or two teams by chopper and if there is a defense system on top of the White House like it showed in this film it would have to be taken out especially if the terrorists are using it to keep any person away. Send the SEALS in the front door and back door. The writer did a awful job in writing this script to be honest with you about it.

"a defense system on top of the White House"

You mean that "top secret weapons system" that's been around for 30 years?

Hydra my ass!

176. Car doors only ever "jam" when a human life depends on their ability to open.
177. Anyone can bring a gun (and a pair of tiny knives) into the White House without fear of being searched.

I am sure they have some sort of defense system on top of the White House but it is not publicly known about though.

horrorfreak489 I layoff the coffee will ya! You might try a little meditation, now after me ohmmmmm, ohmmmmm

12. Beware of trash trucks.
13. A small figurine is impossible to topple.

14. If you get shot by a bullet, A SINGLE BULLET, you die, UNLESS you're the President of the United States.

15. The White House the day after a major holiday will not do a detail background check on visitors.

refresh me on the figurine part, nagging me

15. The White House the day after a major holiday will not do a detail background check on visitors. Just so you know they said he had a fake name with a clear record but its a movie so.

16. Gunships can easily get stolen in the U.S. by Koreans.

17. Rick Yune has it hard. He gets shot n killed on a dirtbike, dismembered with a sword, and takes a knife to the head.

18. When the terrorists tell you to "walk" outside of the White House and you know they're gonna shoot you in the back as soon as you get on the front porch. Don't dive to either side out of shooting rangejus keep walking till your back is blown out.

19. Hashtag is Shift-3
20. Learn how to do a chimney climb
21. Hydra beats Helicopter

22. The most crowd-pleasing way to kill a terrorist is with a big, bronze bust of Lincoln.

We don't get that here. People ski topless smoking dope, so irony's not a high priority.

36. The most important people never gets killed. Mike had his back to Forbes and he doesn't kill him?

These terrorists have no problem killing anyone else, but they lay off the president?

22. after 2 years out of the white house details one still know the code to the safe of the president and the secret service gun closet

22-a: White House Security Codes, especially for the safe in the oval office, won't change in 18 months.

178. Game of *beep* is what you play with your arch enemy
179. The first lady takes fashion tips from secret service agents
179. Aaron Eckhart is a most implausible looking president
180. Hatred for wall street is a strong motivation for joining north Korean extremist groups
181. Never drive when it is dark and snowing

180 - But apparently not enough to keep you a traitor because once you're wounded you'll have a automatic change of heart and help the good guys.

The hashtag bit made me laugh out loud one of many times that I LOL'ed during this film. And I loved it!

37. The White House monitors the news feeds from Australia.

38. When even in a dire situation always try to keep your spirits up. After savagely being beaten ask another hostage, "How does my hair look?"

39. The secret service don't give a fvck about taking cover during a firefight.

"IdeclareBANKRUPTCYYYYYYY!!!"

47) The President's kid gets cool Secret Service codenames like "Sparkplug"

48) Traitors easily repent their ways and assist the Hero after mere seconds after getting beat up

49) Mike Banning loves knives to people's brains

50) It's always a good idea to keep the President and Vice President in the same bunker in times of crisis

51) South Korean background checks are the worsts

52) All Mike Banning shots are head shots or bloody shots. His knife thrusts as well

53) Terrorists have tiny knives that seem less scary than prison shanks

54) A veteran, heroic Presidential Detail Leader gets demoted to Department of Treasury which is a completely different branch though he did curse out the Speaker of the House once

55) The Speaker of the House can get over being cursed at if he's their only hope

56) Koreans just love to kill Dogs at any moment (Stereotype)

57) when all the phone lines in the area are down only if you use the presidents phone it goes through every time. Which of course the bad guys can't tract.

I know this isn't a discussion of plot holes or anything, but several of you seem to have missed some key points.

57) He's using the President's satellite phone. They say it clearly.

Also, Mike was still a Secret Service member, he just wasn't on the POTUS detail any more. So he would still have all the access codes, etc.

Here are a couple of my own though:

58) When a hijacked gun plane is flying around DC shooting up everything, the best place to hide (or just loiter) is right beside the Washington Monument.

59) If the enemy has stolen your advanced weapons system specifically designed to take down aircraft, don't worry about it fly your 6 helicopters straight in saying "shouldn't be a problem."

60) If your inside source, hero, who has done everything asked of him so far, asks for a moment to recon said advanced weapons system before you fly your 6 helicopters in, deny him outright.

61) If you have two hostages to interrogate for information, the funniest (err, I mean best) way to extract that information is by offing one at the outset.

66. I am not the only person who, at the end of Morgan Freeman's little speech, said "Titty Sprinkles".

And yes, I'm serious, I said it in tandem with somebody else, which caused quite the chuckle.

*********************************
I wish my grass was emo. It would cut itself.

"56) Koreans just love to kill Dogs at any moment (Stereotype)" LOL

I give props to this film for actually showing (or do you just hear the noise?) a dog getting shot.

59. When you get a non-korean asian woman playing a Korean language role, even Koreans will be thankful for the subtitles.

60. If you are the President and faced with a choice to let a 70 year old man die or let 50 million Americans and several million South Koreans perish. The obvious choice is to let the 70 year old live even if it is likely to be only an hour or two.

@ CaZSuede: Thanx for the accent update. LOL

We don't get that here. People ski topless smoking dope, so irony's not a high priority.

LOL Yepwoulda worked. Today's films need more cheesy lines like that.

You are abolished.

138) When a hospital has an emergency and has to take care of patients with gunshot wounds, all the medical staff will all gather around the TV to watch the acting presidents speech and just leave their patients.
189) Instead of stopping the lift the Hydra 6 is on, try and disarm it.
190) Harvey Dent is now the president.

138) When a hospital has an crisis and has to take care of patients with gunshot wounds, all the medical staff will gather around the TV to watch the speech and just leave their patients unattended.
189) When you see the Hydra 6 being raised to the rooftop by a lift, don't try and stop the lift.
190) Harvey Dent is now the president.
