Storytelling is a lot like building a house of cards. You need to have a plan, be intentional, and most of all — logical. Otherwise, the entire structure is liable to come crashing down.
Usually, it's the tiniest oversights that end up having the most drastic effect. See what I mean and check out these 10+ plot holes in famous movies we still aren't over.
Think of it this way: you can't charge an Android phone with an iPhone charger.
So how does it stand to reason that David would be able to sync his MacBook into an alien hard drive?
Seriously — he could fly this entire time? Why on earth wouldn't E.T. have flown right back up into his spaceship? It was maybe 30-feet over his head at most!
You're telling me that this leviathan freed itself from its cargo hold, then began perusing about the ship room by room, eating everyone on board?
How is that possible? It's freaking huge!
That was the whole point of the first film! It's possible that Odin could have used the Infinity Gauntlet in his trophy room, I suppose.
Except for wait — it's a fake!
Where did it come from? Did Edward order it wholesale?
Furthermore, at the beginning of the film, Edward couldn't even hold a knife and fork. How could he possibly lift all this ice?
So you're telling me that there's a device in the Wizarding World that will allow the wearer to travel backward in time.
Why on earth would Harry not use it to go back in time and stop Voldemort before he killed his parents?
Selfishness, that's why. Jack's death was completely unnecessary and had Rose just scooched over a few more inches, they both could have survived floating on the door.
Don't believe me? Then see for yourself.
Rogue One immediately leads into the events of A New Hope. So how is it possible that C-3PO and R2D2 could be chatting away in a flight hanger one moment, and then be on board Princess Leia's ship shooting across the galaxy in the very next sequence?
"Don't feed him after midnight" is about as cryptic a description as you can get. First of all, it's always technically "after midnight" somewhere. When does it become OK to feed them again, when the sun is up?
Do timezones factor in at all? I'm just so curious.
Obi-Wan gets zero points for originality. His big plan to keep Luke a secret is to fly him to Vader's home planet of Tattooine and leave him with his brother Owen?
I bet Obi-Wan was the kid on the playground who believed he could turn invisible, just by covering his eyes.
Mr. Freeze needs to maintain a subzero body temperature, otherwise, he'll overheat and die.
So why on earth would he ever be caught smoking a cigar? Wouldn't it cause his lungs to defrost?
Come on, George Lucas! The Ewoks are cute and everything but they're little more than overgrown teddy bears with sticks!
The finest soldiers the Empire has to offer should have decimated their numbers.
One of the first things he says to Luke is how he doesn't recall ever owning a droid. Are you kidding me? Obi-Wan, C-3PO, and R2D2 met all the way in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. They interact multiple times throughout Episode I-III.
Are they pretending or what?!
Let's call Old Biff's timeline, Timeline A. As soon as he goes back to 1955 and gives his younger self the Sports Almanac, Biff created a second timeline which we'll call Timeline B.
When he leaves 1955 to return to 2015, he returned to the original Timeline A instead of B; thus violating the laws of time travel established in the films.
Why is it that Buzz can remember Space Command and the evil Emperor Zurg, but Woody has absolutely no recollection of Jesse, Bullseye, or Stinky Pete?
Does he have PTSD or something?
