There’s even a point in Shaun of the Dead when the ‘girl in the garden’ falls back and punches a hole through the middle of her body. Getting back to the zombie aspect for a moment, there are plenty of movies and even shows that wouldn’t be possible since the loss of muscle, the deterioration of the needed tissues to continue to move about, would be a serious hindrance to reanimation. We see reality every day when we wake up, or we see our version of it at least, and in doing so we find that at times we want to see things that aren’t as real and that wouldn’t have a chance of happening in the real world but are fun to watch for entertainment. Quite a few movies have relied on this over the years since the unfortunate fact is that while reality can be entertaining, it’s not always what people want.

Bypassing the idea of ghosts and the reanimated dead for a moment, the shark in the picture shouldn’t be able to swim, let alone leap out of the water like this with most of its musculature rotted away.īut that’s the thing about movie magic, it’s there to make the improbable a possibility and give people a thrill when it comes to watching things that shouldn’t be able to happen. A good example is to be made by using the image above.
Some of the most interesting questions are also those that would end up destroying the movie by inserting logic into key points that wouldn’t exactly be welcome. It’s a way to keep the reality of a situation from interfering with the movie in a logical manner that might derail things in a big way. The long and short of it is that movie magic is something used to bypass the realism that many people know would otherwise crush a movie’s chance of appearing to be as impressive as possible in order to gain and keep the attention of the audience.

If a character is knocked out of a second-story window to land on the ground and can bounce back up to keep fighting or to run away at full speed, that’s movie magic. When a character can go out for a night of drinking, partying, and wake up the next morning fresh as a daisy despite going to bed absolutely wasted, that’s movie magic.
