Baltimore bridge blown up in controlled demolition

Grace Ocean and Synergy filed a petition on April 1 in Maryland federal court to limit their liability from the crash. If the court grants it, the companies’ liability could be limited to the present value of the ship, which they estimated to be $42.5 million, according to the petition. Source

Which would leave the tax payer footing the bill for the remaining $1.46B cost of reconstruction. Classic.

“Titanic Law” is here to screw you once again.

Socialise cost and privatise profits.

Been the play for awhile now.

This is the worst action movie ever. The explosions are supposed to happen right after the bridge gets hit, not weeks later!

Right? Bruce Willis and Danny Glover are suppose to jump into the water right before the boat is engulfed in flames because of all the C4 onboard.

Oh, I must’ve jumped into the wrong multiverse this morning. Isn’t this the one where Mel Gibson teams up with Danny Glover?

aeronmelon, 16 days ago

Yep.

I was actually thinking of Die Hard with a Vengeance. I was going to write Samuel Jackson, but decided to put Danny Glover instead for some reason. What a team up that would be, right?

Die Hard 3 was originally written to be a Lethal Weapon movie and got turned into a Die Hard movie at some point. If you think of it that way, I’m happy with Samuel L. Jackson’s energy in the role. Die Hard 3 is one of my favourite movies of all time though.

And everyone knows explosions are supposed to look like fireworks!
