"Welcome to the blue team!"
"Can I just be the drummer?"

[muhajir]

Advisor: General, I have an idea.
General: Let's hear it.
Advisor: Let's have our prettiest women jump off the wall and stab the monsters with spears.
General: But they'll die.
Advisor: Yes, but they'll die in cool blue uniforms.
General: I'll take your entire stock.

[trueblueprince]

Imagine training all your life to join the legendary crane corpse and wear a cool blue uniform and your first battle you do a backflip and get instantly ripped apart.

[daywalker]

"Aim for their eyes!"

Bro they're like hundreds of yards away you can't even see their eyes lol

[starm_]

No wonder why the monsters keep coming back, you keep feeding them.

[cablemccraft]

Everyone is talking about how dumb the Crane Corps is, but can we talk about the general or whatever who said "Aim for their eyes" when the creatures are like 200+ meters out and in a massive swam. You won't be aiming at all, just launching the arrows in the right direction.

The general who planned this wall defense also planned Winterfell.

[rorymanley]

Commander: Any ideas to protect us against monsters?
Guy #1: How about we drop rocks?
Guy #2: What about burning oil?
Guy #3: Or we could send our finest warriors to do backflips and poke at the endless wave of monsters, risking their own lives and probably succeeding in only killing one.
Commander: You’re gettin a promotion

[RebelEight-zq]

General: "crane crops attack!"
Aliens: "oh look! Fiesty food!"

[acertainscientificloli]

Remember guys, if you ever feel worthless in your life, just think about the Crane Corps.

[mbains]

I don't think we are criticizing that one dude saying "aim for their eyes" enough.

[hmrhuang]

Cranes are majestic, intelligent birds. The crane corps should be renamed the turkey corps -- I.e., monster dinner served up!

[jdogzerosilverblade]

love how the guys that were captured are just staring at everyone like they are morons and its perfect XD

[OneNationUnderGod.]

"Sir, from this height, we could drop these very sharp spears directly down onto our foes and easily kill them without putting ourselves in harm's way. The monsters wont stand a chance!"
The General: *Holding some bungie cord*
"I have a better idea"

[kevinyao]

When your country is overpopulated...Crane Corps!

[HumanAction]

Imagine how much marijuana was smoked when this idea was brought up and everyone was like, "yeah man! That's brilliant!"

[datemasamune]

I'm guessing the old strategy of dumping hot tar, and fire was too easy for them.

[wrotelord]

I return here every few months to read comments😂

[_arka]

When I first watched this movie I thought the crane corps are a bunch of elite soldiers who are gonna do something cool, but later when I saw them getting thrown down at monsters I was just speechless. Bruh what! 😂😂

[jgreg]

The crane corps is the most ineffective fighting force ever.
