"black stripe makeup" is not meant to be camouflage. It's meant to reduce the effect of glare off of your cheeks. Or so I've been told. I tried it once back when I played baseball semi-regularly and didn't notice any difference.

[@bobsmith6098]

I play regularly and have played all the way through AAA and it does work XD I think they use it in the movies for like night camo but why use it in the day... idk

My eyes are pretty sensitive to light, doesn’t work well when it’s just two small bars on your cheek bones or streaked across a face. But it works wonders when you coat your cheeks, eyes, and forehead like Furiosa. Fuck sunglasses.

​@robinanwaldt Arnold isn't the greatest actor in the world, but you can tell that he puts his heart into it, and that's the reason why people like Arnold Schwarzenegger cause he tries acting with passion and charm.. Sylvester Stallone is a great actor, though.. That man can act when it's necessary..

[@Jarod-vg9wq]

I love the effort he puts into his films

[@bobcobb3654]

[@ThePa1riot]

You know what I really love about this movie? That Matrix doesn't even pretend to go along with the bad guy's plans. In any other action movie, especially those made today, the hero would wrestle with assassinating a political figure and protecting his family. There'd be compromises made, deceptions of reluctantly going along with the plan. In this movie? The action hero just is a hero and doesn't suffer any excuses or half-measures when it comes to killing the shit out of evil men. Best summarized here, 6:29
