Later V8 models had up to 350hp, but the Esprit was such a light car (the S1 barely tipped over 900kg) that a 2.2-litre Turbo will have all the performance you could ask for, while bringing less complication. 5. Cord 810 The fact that the main character's special technique is called " Shining Finger" is also helped by this rule. The beginning of the Arrancar arc has the first 'fighting in mid-air' battles. It has a justification (soul reapers can walk on spirit particles) but it still counts because it's damn cool. Tao Pai Pai killed a man with his tongue and he did this during his debut in the show. He later taps a pillar and breaks it out, while leaving the building completely intact then throws the pillar and jumps onto it while it's moving. Tao Pai Pai's only comment on that matter is, "Who needs a jet when when we've got a perfectly good pillar."

The sole reason that the monsters explode into fireballs upon defeat. It's a flashy way to get rid of a monster without more expensive post-editing effects. Final Fantasy: Unlimited: In relation to Kaze and his extremely long Magun summoning sequences. In Real Life it would be impractical but in the show it looks so cool!Zombieland. Why would you go to an amusement park and turn all the lights on, turning your location into a gigantic target? Why would you jump out of the car and let it sink into the river, instead of hitting the brakes suddenly? Why would you try to con the first signs of life instead of going with them, then why would you leave? Why would you take a motorcycle or a shovel to fight zombies? Why? Why? Because it's awesome. Few cars were as ahead of their time as the Cord 810 of 1936. The first car to feature hidden headlights (which were actually aircraft landing lights), as well as innovations like intermittent windscreen wipers and radio as standard. The Cord 810 was also pioneering for being front-wheel drive, while also featuring sleek horizontal air inlets rather than a conventional radiator grille. As with the above list, these blasts from the past are selected on a wholly subjective basis, and have been chosen with significant personal preference and prejudice.

Any car with an association with Ayrton Senna immediately gets some cool rubbed off on it, and the fact the legendary F1 driver helped develop the NSX in the latter stages of its design only adds to its kudos. The feats of strength Arnold Schwarzenegger's characters tended to display, outside of fight scenes, cross this trope over with Cutscene Power to the Max. Examples include his casually lugging around trees in Commando and his ripping a bolted-down bed out of the floor, one-handed in The Running Man. About the only time that kind of Strong as They Need to Be factor makes a difference in the actual plot is his freeing himself from the Mind-Wipe Chair in Total Recall (1990). Star Trek: You could fill a hundred encyclopedias with all the technical and narrative inaccuracies; two dimensional space, clear contradictions in the standard operating procedures of Starfleet, glaringly inefficient ship designs, unrealistic scale of space, unrealistic equipment, convoluted timeline of events, the list is infinite. However....when Trek fires on all cylinders warp nacelles, NOBODY gives a damn. X/1999: Monou Fuuma destroys Ebisu Garden Plaza with empty soda cans and the power of his own awesomeness. Note that you only get to invoke the Rule of Cool if the end product is, in fact, cool. Note also that different opinions on what is "cool" create the most arguments over this. The Rule of Cool is very subjective. Failure to properly use this trope can cause collision damage with walls.There's no reason that turbo duels have to be played on motorcycles in Yu Gi Oh5ds. The format works just as well when played on a table. The anime pays lip service to it being important by stating that the more speed counters you have the faster you can go, but going faster has no tangible effect on the gamestate. Importantly, though, the Range Rover Classic was (and still is) massively comfortable and hugely capable when the going gets muddy. Such features proved all too alluring for the elite of the day and as a result it wasn’t long before the Range Rover had morphed into a luxurious five-door off-roader.
