Glasses do have reflections and are noticeable. When you look through the glass it refracts the light so you can see through the wearer's face (at a certain angle). All of these things are weird about glasses--which us glasses wearers are fully aware of, living with them every day. We can't help but notice what glasses do. So when I see someone wearing glasses with no glass in them, that calls my attention to it and I start looking at that instead of what I should be looking at in the scene. Other people may have a different experience--but I was talking about myself.

I have never seen a Day for Night scene that looked like night.
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

Not a specific film (and your knowledge of the K Cops is probably greater than mine) but the vendor cart is a staple of those early silent comedies. Especially in the Mack Sennett movies. Originally Posted by TheRay

I guess we have no choice but to conclude that, around the time those films were shot, such carts were actually ubiquitous.

It appears so from the films, photos and paintings. Originally Posted by TheRay

Notice the pushcarts.

We also see Kirby using the escape thanks to the Push cart trope in Fantastic Four 15. 3rd Panel.

People commit suicide for no real reason or just to end a plot line or story. (man in high castle ending)
1000-year-old equipment starts right up after not being used for 1000 years. My lawnmower doesn't work in the spring after being out of commission for the winter and fall! (star gate or star trek tv shows come to mind right away
Instead of people on the run. Hiding out in the bad neighborhoods they come from. Why cant they come from rich areas and hid out in those while on the run. (GI JOE 2 plot line comes to mind right away)

It's a great little story by Kirby in a book called Streetwise. You may be able to find it scanned online. It's all just Kirby pencils. Originally Posted by TheRay
