Text - Otto_Lili_Emmenthal • 2d 1 Award Madagascar. They give Marty the lion hell for eating animals. In the end, they give him sashimi as a substitute. What, in a world of talking animals, fish aren't considered animals too? Edit: I got my names wrong. Sorry, it's been ages. And I'm bad with names. Thanks for pointy pointy. Reply 6.6k ...

Text - kingcobra5352• 3d In Season 2 of Dexter, Rita asks Dexter how he knew how much heroin to give her ex-husband and deducts deduces that Dexter himself is a heroin user. Dexter was top of his class in med school and is a forensics guy. I can't imagine it would be hard for a guy like that to figure it out. Reply 8.6k ...

Text - PopUpWindowPest • 2d My biggest problem is with logistics in the movies. Like one of the planet of the apes sequels. The apes get attacked by the last of humanity, men using these attack helicopters. And I'm sitting there thinking: Does anyone realize how many humans it takes to keep military helicopters flying?

Text - revocer • 3d Ocean's 11. During the blackout scene, there is mad chaos in the casino. People stealing chips and just mass hysteria. Then the team goes to steal the money during the blackout. Afterwards, the lights are back on, and as they walk out of the casino, people in the background act like nothing has happened. No hysteria, just a normal casino with people gambling in a fun and jovial manner. Reply 8.9k ...

Text - Lakna_Rokee • 2d 1 Award In the final episode of GoT Tyrion is put on trial for murder, yet this somehow turns into choosing the next king of Westeros.

Text - Armchairengineer1960 • 3d In every war movie a shell goes off 10 feet away from a soldier, he ducks and keeps running. In reality he'd be dead from the blast and shrapnel. Reply 3.1k

Text - _Corinthian_ • 2d 2 Awards In the Mummy with Brendan Frasier, Imhotep steals body parts from the looters to put himself back together. At one point he takes the eyes from a person wearing glasses, so for the rest of the movie Imhotep should really be squinting at everyone. Reply 2.7k ...

Text - theshoeshiner84 • 3d In every fucking action adventure movie ever... Extremely large and loud shit tends to sneak up on people. Helicopters, trucks, trains, dinosaurs, jets, tanks, speed boats, king kong... The only stuff that should sneak up on you are bullets and explosions. Edit: I stand corrected - Apparently "tippy toes" is a universal ability that serves to make any animate or inanimate object silent and undetectable. Reply 6.3k

Text - Greybaubles • 2d Interstellar; they knew for 48 years that one of the planets orbited close enough to suffer time dilation effects, sent an astronaut there and then spent the next 12 years wondering why the astronaut sent there keeps turning their beacon on and off. Reply 1.6k ...

Text - Zestyclose_Exit_9367 • 3d In Us when it explains that the government cloned everyone then gave up and just let these clones live under ground in sewage tunnels for that long. Like it makes no sense. If they did clone everyone wouldnt they have at least disposed of them. Also why are they in the sewers if it was an experiment. Plus if everyone is eating those rabbits then there will not be that many. I dont know that has always bothered me. Reply 3.1k ...

Text - Half_Smashed_Face • 3d If Buzz-lightyear thinks he's real and not a toy, then why is he motionless and pretending to not be alive, like all the other toys, when Andy plays with him? Wouldn't he think Andy is some sort of giant alien monster? Woody might have explained to him they they need to remain still or something, but we never get an explanation Reply 5.1k ...

Text - Grundelcramp • 3d I don't know if you could consider it a plot hole but it always bugged me the way Tommy Boy ended. Rob Lowe gets arrested but the "step-mom" that married Big Tom gets to go to on a date with Zalinksy. She should have been arrested as well. Reply 1.1k ...

Text - covertpetersen • 3d 4 Awards Not sure if it counts as a plot hole, but there's one scene in Spiderman 3 that's never made any sense to me. Peter takes a small sample of the symbiote to one of his college professors so he can get a better idea of what it is. The professor looks at it under a microscope and says "It's definitely alien. I wouldn't let any of this stuff touch you.". That's it? Proof of alien life bright to you by one of your students and your only takeaway is "Don't touch it"
