Telling the public not to panic always incites a mass panic.

If a barrage of missiles or a giant laser can't kill a giant rubber monster, then a tiny pistol definitely can't.

Seriously, I've seen too many monster movies/shows where they'll have tanks, jets, anti-aircraft guns, laser cannons, etc. firing numerous large projectiles at the monsters only to simply bounce off. Then cut to the next scene where there are people on ground level shooting it with a god damned pistol from like at least 2000 miles away instead of just running and/or hiding like a normal person. And of course, the projectile explodes for some reason (explosive-tipped maybe?) on the monster, but still has no effect. Sometimes it's a laser pistol, but same effect really.

Weirdly, I could see someone doing that in real life. :bouncegiggle:

Various SF films have taught me that small,  agile fighters cannot be shot down by mounted rapid firing computer guided guns mounted on large vessels.

The devil doll (1936)taught me all matter is made of electrons, and electrons are made of electrical charges. The right type of conductor can draw charges out of electrons,  causing them to shrink along with the matter they make up.

Sharks are apparently from the planet gallifrey, as their stomachs are larger on the inside than the outside...

A wooden railing will suddenly lose it's structural integrity the moment the person leaning on it is struck by a bullet, no matter which direction that bullet comes from or where the person has been hit.....

Good call.

From Kong: Skull Island, if you are suddenly confronted with a giant ape, don't go flying your helicopters within arm's length of it.
"Once you get past a certain threshold, everyone's problems are the same: fortifying your island and hiding the heat signature from your fusion reactor."

Similarly, watching the x from outer space taught me that some kamikaze pilots survived ww2 and taught japanese jet fighter pilots how to fly.

For some people, handling a firearm & chewing gum, at least with your mouth closed, requires a wee bit too much concentration...

After watching the MSTK episode RADAR SECRET SERVICE, I learned that you can use a radar for pretty much everything. Radar is your friend and the savior of mankind.
