Tired movie plots

Fuck off

Once was enough for that plot I agree, but what does it feature in other than LXG and Sherlock Holmes 2?

>Vastly superior aliens invade Earth
>Asspull allows 'humans' (americans) to defeat them

>rag tag group of buddies single handedly defeat evil empire

I only remember the League of Extraordinary Men and Sherlock Holmes. Are there any others?

Honestly it should just been selling weapons, modern ones for their age like Armstrong cannons and shit like that, not ebin sub-machine guns in the 19th century.

is that kappa mickey or some shit like that?
It was too avant garde for its time.

Yeah I hate that one. I can't think of any movies that handled an alien invasion "properly." For TV, maybe Colony approaches it but I stopped watching after Season 1 so idk.

The Three Body Problem series (books) handles it right imo, even with the tremendous asspull at the end of the second book. Although I'm not sure that counts as an asspull because the author sets it up waaay in advance.

>WE HAVE TO SAVE DA WORRRLLL

cant we just have minor conflicts with major stakes?

Like Dredd 3D had nothing to do with rescuing the entire city, it was about getting the fuck out of a building just to survive. The world ending is the laziest consequence now that it holds zero weight.

This might be the worse plotline of all time.

>>83149394
I think it was Skyline where Earth was just BTFO and assimilated.

>>83149621
