Even more so in Jurassic Park, how does the T. rex paddock turn into a GIANT FUCKING PIT OF DEATH THAT'S 150 ft down when the T. rex was LITERALLY just standing there
How does grant magically save Tims life with Chest compressions? Only a defibrillator would work. His best option if it was real is too launch Tims body back on the electric fence lmao. No amount of chest compressions can restart a heart, they are just to simulates a heartbeat to keep blood pumping until you get a strong electric current to use.
+Red and White Warriors of Sevilla. CPR -- cardiopulmonary resuscitation -- is a potentially life-saving procedure that can restart a person's heartbeat and breathing. CPR is often used to revive victims of electric shock, near-drowning, and heart attack. my problem lies with the 10.000 volt that should have fried him from the inside out I guess
+Red and White Warriors of Sevilla. But the nature of an electric fence had it been working in a realistic manner he wouldnt have gotten fried untill he touched down. Way up there he had no ground there would have been no crispy critters same concept as a bird sitting on a electic wire
Number 5 isn't even the most holey-ist thing about batman begins plot. The fear toxin had been in the water for weeks and becomes effective when the water becomes steam... does no one in gotham take hot showers?
Thing about Legolas is you answered your own question: the orc was a berserker. When a man becomes a berserker, all acknowledgment of pain is completely disregarded by the brain and they become that much harder to take down because they're defined by extreme reckless abandon, bordering on a death wish. There's a reason Viking berserkers were so feared in battle by the continental Europeans. They were a complete nightmare. Hardly a plot hole if you read into the fact that Legolas had very little experience fighting Uruk-hai by the Battle of Helm's Deep, who are a massive cut above your average orc, and a berserker Uruk-hai is probably even worse than his non-berserk brethren. Also, it might be a matter of strategy that the berserker wasn't sent in first. The way I see it, bombing the wall was probably Plan B if they couldn't take Helm's Deep in the conventional way. Helm's Deep was strategically placed and easily defensible. If you want to take such a good position (and Saurman wanted to take the keep), compromising the walls should be a last resort because you may not have time to repair them in a meaningful way before an army comes to retake it. This is all discounting the Rule of Drama since it doesn't seem to be a legitimate reason to you.
+The Masters Mad Face Recall how chaotic it got when the berserker showed up? If nothing else, Rule of Drama was in play. Things had to proceed in the way they did so the entire battle sequence didn't stall out.
+Jana Lybarger You act like legolas was inexperienced, I'd have believed you too, but as stated by Adam, he RODE A FUCKING SHIELD DOWN A SET OF STAIRS KILLING DOZENS OF ORCS.
+Brutus Kennedy Rutherford Kingsley III True but again, Rule of Drama was in play. If that is not considered as a reason why, then the entire story falls apart. Helm's Deep was always meant to fall to drive the story forward. Legolas's skill is not in question here. The needs of the story demanded he fail. That's all there is to it
Toy Story: Buzz spends most of the film wholeheartedly believing that he is a real space ranger, denying or brushing off any accusations of being a toy... so why does he freeze like a toy whenever humans show up? It`s even proven later in the film that the toys are completely capable of moving in front of humans should they choose to do so.
+Halocrafter101 That's the point. CinemaSins used it as a joke to make fun of how movie characters never think to hide or zigzag between objects to lose their attacker, or simply sidestep a rolling/falling object.
u wanna know y they didn't run left or right in prometheus? it's because they went to the prometheus school of running away from things (reference to cinemasins)
a lot of these I wouldn't consider plot holes, just faults in logic. Some of them weren't even plot related...but I don't disagree with any of the things on the list.
In all fairness with ninja T-Rex...between Grant, Saddler, and the kids trying to get away from the raptors and the mess being made, you probably could have landed a 747 in front of the visitor center and nobody would have noticed.
+Mr4theLulz1 exactly I was about to say the same. if you got fucken raptors of all things in your face, literally fighting for your life the last thing you're going to be noticing is any nearby cups of water rippling or a little thumping. Sick of hearing that one
Biggest hole in Spiderman 2. 1. Doc Oc makes a replica of the sun 2. The sun is a fusion reactor 3. It is hot enough to make plasma, which is basically ionised gas. It produces enough energy to generate more plasma. 4. Therefore, it is hot enough to not only turn water into gas, but it would be more than powerful enough to split Hydrogen and Oxygen out of water. 5. They toss his solar reactor into a river..which is 99.99999% water plus some random shit and the odd dead body or two. Question: Why did the mini sun not just instantly turn all of the water around it into gas, then rip apart the water into hydrogen and oxygen, then proceed to fuse the hydrogen to make an even bigger star, then end up vaporising the whole city?
The prometheus one isn't a plot hole, because the map was generated on the bridge of the ship and send back to the scientist, like Google Maps. The map isn't on your pc, you just have access to it. The flying orbs were probes collecting the data and sending it to the ship, that actually has the calculating capacities to generate the map. Once the storm started they were losing periodically the signal, as stated by the captain himself. You....should really pay attention to movies before pointing out plot holes....
jerrylee22 Did you see the movie? There was a dangerous storm and the others were busy doing their mutual work and barely made it back to the ship with the storm hitting reaching them as they closed the gate.
***** Oh, yeah, sorry. I kinda forgot about the frantic-ness of the situation. Still, though, the mission seemed like it wasn't planned the best, but what can you do in the unknown, I have hindsight.
Well, I don't see the "silent" T-Rex in Jurassic Park as being a plothole. The ground shakes, (a little), when it walks, but it's not like it creates a huge earthquake. And when you are running for your life from raptors. And huge skeleton is crashing down on you. I don't think you would notice a little shaking. Earlier in the movie they had nothing to do in the cars. And there was no sounds other than the rain. So of course they would notice the silent bumps.I agree that the fact that it seems like the T-Rex is just standing around waiting for them to turn up is weird.
+HyperTurtleGaming if you are busy trying to save your life you wouldn't notice the T Rex. Humans have temporary deafness and blindness when you are concentrating on something.
The "why is everyone still being a dick to Randy Quaid?" is something pretty typical of Emmerich's scripts. (I'm an Emmerich fan, primarily for his grasp of sheer spectacle, but recognise he falls way short in a lot of other aspects of his film-making, not least in story logic.) He often has people behaving in ways that make no sense for their characters, just to create "conflict" in his dialogue. Another example from the same flick: Goldblum figures out the imminent threat of invasion in the satellite signals, and wants to tell the authorities, so figures the best way is to drive to Washington (apparently magically shortcutting the 4-hour driving time even on clear roads) to tell the President personally; he bullies his dad into taking him, which allows some buddy-road-movie schtick between the two, then when they get to Washington, Goldblum's ex says the Pres is kinda busy, and *Goldblum* immediately says, "See, I told you he wasn't going to listen to us, we should go." *He* was the only one who wanted them to be there; how in the name of Saint Robert McKee does that make even the slightest bit of sense?!
Uruk-Hai Berserkers aren't exactly invincible, just very close to it thanks to their blood-rage letting them ignore pain and power through non-fatal injuries, and in fact there was one of those crazy fuckers at the top of each ladder the Uruk-Hai army tried to raise, which you can see in earlier scenes. It's a bit hard to tell because of the lighting, but they're still clearly half-naked and wield a distinctly massive sword.
Well, the one that went in above his collarbone, between the shoulder and the neck, probably did go through either his heart or his trachea, but that's assuming the Uruk-Hai at Helm's Deep *don't* have hyper-dense muscle tissue or something like that, based on how one good swing from Aragorn took Lurtz's head off. So... I dunno, I guess Legolas should have aimed for his neck instead of his heart.
Captain Faust I always thought perhaps adrenaline in the Berserker- as this one knew he was running to his death etc it may have simply been that adrenaline kept him going, an arrow even to the neck doesn't kill instantly
J. Jabba It was more that damage to the spinal cord will still paralyze you no matter how much adrenaline you're on, but you do raise another valid point as to why that berserker didn't immediately die.
There is actually a funny story about the Jurassic Park one... Spielberg told the CGI artists he wanted the Rex to burst into the scene at the end (it was a last minute change). The artist replied ''Ok. But from where does he come in?'' and Spielberg replied ''from the right'' when in actual fact the artist was asking Spielberg where the hell is Rex expected to enter the building from. It was just one of those things that makes no sense, but looks awesome on screen.
Also that bit in Jurassic Park that introduces the Trex walking through some cables to get to where the cars are. Later when Dr Grant and the kids are fleeing, the ground where the Trex first appeared is now a gaping pit.
The thing about Storm Trooper armor is it doesn't make them impervious to blaster shots. It absorbs most of the energy but some of the the energy still gets through. most of the time the soldiers get up after a few minutes, spend some time in the medical bay then get back to work.
+Travis Moss Yeah.. that's why it leaves a giant smoking hole in them. It doesn't protect them at all against blaster fire. The purpose of Stormtrooper "armor" is symbolism. They are the legions representing The Empire and it's power and authority. You see them, you know they are large and in charge and you better not get in their way. Fear is their true purpose and power.
+Linerunner99 What you say makes sense, I think, but if the "armour" is completely symbolic, you'd think they could have gone with something that still has that visual impact but doesn't actually impede their mobility. Or -- a radical thought, I know -- why not something that is symbolic *but also offers protection*?! You know, like ... armour. ;-)
Shadow in a Cave Because they spent all their money making death stars and had to skimp on the armor. lol To me the age old trope about their lack of accuracy is really stupid. All "soldier" level bad guys in just about every movie EVER has that same level of aim. Otherwise what do you have? A bunch of dead heroes and movie over? Of course not.. they HAVE to miss or the show is over.
Remember that bit in the matrix where Cypher says "I don't even see the code anymore". What if the corrispondence between the machines and Cypher is all a form of communication that just uses matrix code directly. Then what we see is actually Cypher's interpretation of the conversations while he sits, types and stares at a screen.
And the people who they free from the Matrix to join their revolution do tend to be super hackers, so that's not entirely implausible. It could have been explained a little better though.
Yeah, I was about to race to the comment field to say "YOU PUT THE POSTER FOR AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 THERE WHEN YOU MEANT SAM RAIMI'S SPIDER-MAN 2!" but then I thought for two seconds and decided to scan down to the comments and look for the inevitable mention of that exact same fact by someone else because there was no WAY I was the only person in the world to notice that.
The T Rex one can be explained. The people and raptors were fighting each other. It was a pretty chaotic couple minutes. It's not too far fetched to think it got most of the way there before being noticed.
+Vatra A better explanation for the T Rex ninja is it WASN'T REAL LIFE and was JUST A MOVIE and the producers needed another scene with the T Rex in it and didn't want to spoil the pace of the raptor scene by re showing the rippling water in a cup motif.
Jurassic Park The Lost World. How the hell the ships crew got killed when both the T-Rex were locked in the cargo hold? From what I understand it explained it in the book.. but still.
+Steven T That part wasn't in the book (the Lost World, that is). There was supposed to be a scene where it turned out that there were raptors on board the ship, but that scene was cut (not sure if it was ever filmed or not). I guess they just realized that raptors aren't that threatening after everyone witnessed one getting killed by a girl performing gymnastics.
Did anyone else notice the big pot hole in Jurassic Park where the T-Rex is standing on one side of the fence and after it breaks out and forces Doctor Grant and Co over the same way the T-Rex came in there's suddenly a huge drop even to big for the T-Rex to stand where it was casually eating a goat earlier in the same scene
The berserker from Two Towers doesn't bother me. Legolas hits him all over the place with arrows, and he's wearing a helmet, so he couldn't get a headshot. The berserker just has to live long enough to fling himself into the culvert, and the protagonists didn't really know what he was doing anyhow, since I guess explosives were some sort of new thing. The real question is how people always seem to be able to move their limbs unimpeded in films, after presumably having muscle fibers and tendons severed by sharp projectiles. But I just put that down to "action scene magic", the same way people always survive bullet wounds and long falls.
the plothole at the end of darknight rises is that it takes more than double the time for the ship to get out of range than it actually had. also, since batman does not eject anywhere in the city, ejecting beyond the horizon doesn't save him, he is well inside the killing range of the bomb. he dies, and that whole part with alfred is a dream sequence of alfred.
+rohadt Anyad The twist in The Dark Knight Rises is that Batman ejected when his batplane passed over the bridge. The entire inner cockpit ejected from the vehicle - like the helicopter in Goldeneye. Bruce's pensive look was due to his wiping out his whole Wayne legacy, leaving the Batman - his life's work - behind and becoming a literal nobody, which is a death of sorts. That he didn't let Alfred know is just plain a dick move, especially since the guy was just trying to give Bruce the truth about Rachel, which should have been easier to swallow since Selina was in the picture. The biggest lapse of logic in this move was how Bruce's spine healed and he got back into prime shape in five months despite being fed the subsistence diet of the typical third-world prisoner. And the knee. You know Bane broke Bruce's knee brace when he found it.
Plot holes in the video: The Amazing Spiderman 2 poster is used for Spider Man 2 A First Order storm trooper is used when talking about the Empire, which was *replaced* with the First Order
shit man. you just leaked the last movie in batman. turns out alfred was just tripping dicks all day taking drugs to cope with the loss. he hallucinated the character of batman, and none of it ever happened
Bruce and Selena WERE alive at the end. Alfred didn't know about Selena and Bruce, so why would he hallucinate Selena with Bruce. The logic behind it is shaky, but then again. *ehem* "He's Batman"
I can explain this, they were all a figment of Alfred's imagination this entire time, and he he had never been able to cope with the homicide of the Waynes, which included a young Bruce Wayne. So he made up a fairytale world of masked heros and villiains to keep his demented mind occupied. All he really does is sit in that very cafe and sip leftover Macchiato and breadcrumbs from the last occupants of the table every day.
The Dark Knight thing: How do you know that Wayne had no contact with Alfred at all between the bomb and the café? How do you know that Wayne didn't call him from his batphone while he was still in the escape pod under 20 feet of water (that's how he escaped the explosion and radiation, btw), and that the funeral scene was just Alfred acting (possibly by pulling from the emotion that he'd probably never speak to the man he raised as a son again)? It's not as much a plot hole as it is an unexplained event.
a bigger plot hole was in the dark knight when Joker shows up at Bruce's party. after Batman saves Rachel, it suddenly shifts to the next day with no resolution to the chaos, or the fact that the joker was probably murdering people inside
Storm trooper armor is meant to disperse the damage of a laser across the body rendering the wearer unconscious rather than dead. This means that most troopers you see gunned down actually survived to fight another day.
+The Ferryman - I'm confused by your comment. I understand the term in the frame of this Wikipedia definition: "In fiction, a plot hole, plothole or plot error is a logical inconsistency within a story. Such inconsistencies include such things as illogical or impossible events, and statements or events that contradict earlier events in the storyline." My perception of the video is that it provides examples within those parameters.
+Steve Perrin - Thank you for your comment. I agree that the storm trooper armor is not the tightest example, but I offer these mitigating considerations: It is included only at number 10 and it does represent a logical inconsistency, an entire army wearing clumsy, all encompassing equipment that appears to have no effective purpose, given the battles being fought. In fact, I've always been distracted by that odd bit of unjustified stage dressing. What's the point of the suits, besides looking sinister-cool? And why white? Just in case of a battle on Hoth? ~ Well, it works for me as a broadly interpreted plot hole, but I guess I can understand the point you're making of its limited impact on the story line, per se. Still, I think the vid, overall, falls well within the confines of the definition. Hey, I appreciate that you were specific.
Technically, Legolas missed the berserker both times because the arrows he fires (his green ones with the yellow flights) are not the same ones that hit the berserker (white flights that the other elves use) so it's another elf's fault. lol.
Another plot hole you missed in Independence Day was the fact that the alien ships hovering over the city were 15 miles wide. I mean, if the humans were to be able to bring them down, they couldn't do so without crushing everything the ships came down on. And why would the aliens use fire when all they had to do is bring the ships downward and crush everything underneath?
I always thought that cipher was having a meeting on the computer, like typing and watching. remember he comments that he doesn't even see the coding anymore and neo "scares the bejesus out of him" when he walks in as if he's up to something bad. But then he realizes neo can't read coding yet and relaxes. Then again, I don't know how he could make the point about the steak so idk.
+nick highland indeed. initialy not to be taken literaly I think but more like u said he's simple reading code, but that begs the question if cipher is in a line of communication with Smith how can they not track them? but then the steak thing. bit of a mind fuck haha
Storm Trooper armor, along with most other things designed by the Empire, is made to comply with the Tarken Doctrine: rule through fear of force rather than force itself.
Omg Prometheus explained the storm ruined their communications and brought down their technology for a brief second mate. The whole entire movie Prometheus gives away what the plot of the movie is about. David does the things he does because it is to show he has independent thoughts and creativity. It's the reason why he spies on Shaws dreams. He's a themetic piece to show a creation go outside of the will of its creator. And I could go on and on and on.
David does what he does because he thinks it will get him closer to his goal or should I say Wayland's goal and that immortality. Wayland programmed him to do whatever it takes to achieve his primary objective. BTW it is scrary as fuck to have a car speeding right at you a lot of ppl stand still because they are frozen with fear so is safe to say ppl don't always make the best decisions in situations like that.
tho after watching some video about how storm trooper armor works. its pretty effective actually. a hit doesnt directly kill you, you just pass out on the field. back in clone time, they were pretty much the same. so when your tactic is to overwhelm the enemy with numbers with least amount of casualties, this armor works perfectly. sadly its designed just for laser and other type of weapons, doesnt really hold against a two ton boulder.
Starscream Jesse And yet no one really cares because at the end of the day the gender amounts to absolutely nothing in the movie. Besides odds are it was a slip of the tongue or a slight mistake.
Stormtrooper armor is effective against light blasterbolts, in melee combat and is above all meant to deal with a variety of climate problems. (regulates temp and stuff) As for it never doing much in the movies: 1) heroes are heroes. 2) The Battle of Endor defied common sense in many ways. Like how trees smashed steel in the way it did. And the rocks ewoks threw were even in any way a threat given their lack of strength. Not to mention the way the Executor went out. Baseline... they did a Lotr basically.
the Armour does protect the. they appear to die because it spreads out the damage which stuns them then a medic comes and revives them after the battle! :P
The Imperial Alliance had no care to spend good money on their armies so they gave them sub-par dispersion armour instead of The First Order, who had fewer numbers gave soldiers excellent protection. Relying on sheer numbers rather than conserving battle-ready soldiers, the Imperial army ultimately was to intimidate. Tactics that a lot of militaries have used and use today
+mad scientist Lets just be honest and say it was bad writing with no great thought put into it as long as the heroes win in the end. That's all it is.
For the Lord of the Rings one, yes they did send them into battle first, they were the first guys on the ladders remember, they were sent in to decimate the Elves as much as possible in a frenzy... maybe the torch carrier was magically engineered to feel nothing... Or took a potion Saruman created to give him some sort of adrenaline boost which would likely kill him in minutes, so in that time he sprints towards the wall, able to ignore everything - so even if Legolas shot his eye out, he'd keep running
+bladeriders it was shot in the head TWICE. Pretty powerful painkillers he got there. OR it was an inside job. Don't forget The One Ring's main power was to rule all the other decoder-rings, and Gandalf was a Captain Planet Team all along! (he likely had the no-use love-ring)
Two big ones I was expecting: 1) How the hell does Bruce Willis not know he's dead until the end of Sixth Sense? Nobody talks to him for days/weeks except for the kid who can talk to dead people! 2) Why does Buzz Lightyear go limp like all the other toys when a human shows up, but refuses to believe until the end of the film that he is just a toy?
+Kert McAfee Number one is actually much worse than that since his character has actually been dead for months and yet his psychiatry/therapy office is still up and operating.
Legolas one isn't a plot hole. He hit him, therefore its not a plot hole on his part, and Boromir took far more arrows and kept fighting, yet he's just like any other man. Don't just make up plot holes to fill your quota.
+Louis Clegg I think he's saying he could have gotten a killshot. Heart, head, heck, even taking out his knee or foot would have worked. Shoulder is just a giant knot of muscle, not the kind of place Legolas should be aiming at when dude is packing A BOMB.
ThunderPaladin He hit a moving target and missed his head by a few inches, I would call that a pretty good shot. Especially since he was in a battle for numbers with Gimli, who's on the same power level as a human.
The nice thing about the Donner cut is that it fixes the “magic kiss” plot hole. The T-Rex plot hole was caused by Spielberg’s desire to make her the hero. The early story boards show Muldoon shooting both of them (That’s right! He was supposed to live!) and leading everyone out of the visitor’s center.
There's a scene in Independence Day when Will Smith's family are looking at the charred and destroyed city, and there's a perfect, untouched palm tree on the street surrounded by blackened car husks.
Storm trooper body armor: The military thinks it is positive to strip soldiers of their individual identities. The specific branch I served for does not, but for the role of, say, a storm trooper (or its counterpart, a Nazi soldier), individual thinking is bad. Full body uniform helps with this.
+Austemagne I happen to agree. I believe body armor does a lot more in the star wars extended universe, you even get light saber resistant metals etc. However, as for how body armor is portrayed in the movies the only explanation I can think of is the one you gave. It even explains the helmets, even if the real reason for the helmets was so they could reuse extras.
The Alfred thing is because his death is easier to fake if his beloved caretaker and sole confidant is honestly heartbroken, and he knew Alfred well enough to know that he was strong enough to cope with Bruce's death (especially since he was more than half expecting it to happen any time Bruce goes out as Batman) and seeing him in Florence like that (or whatever city Alfred decides to change his normal vacation to, some Bruce still has his Batman skills as well as Selena's trailers and resources) was to fulfill Alfred's stated dream of seeing Bruce happily married and not being Batman.
Funny thing (and I've seen someone else mention this before): I just watched a WatchMojo episode before watching this and I love the change from "we wrote this script in two hours and made a video as fast as possible" to the charasmatic and funny commentary you provide.
I think Bruce Wayne was keeping tabs on Alfred. He finally had an opportunity to show himself to him in florence with no chance of the media recognizing him.
#10 was a psychological thing. All the troops were the same, uniformity in the empire. Conform or die. Also, as someone fighting storm troopers if they all look the same, kill one, another one takes its place, did you really kill the first one? I think it also protects them against some gas attacks, it seals and has an air supply to survive in space and harsh environments on planets... Although, I'm not sure if I read that somewhere or if I'm making it up. /shrug
Couple things. 1) In The Force Awakens, FInn says that the masks do not filter out toxic gas, just smoke. 2) By hiding their faces, they make it way easier for rebels to kill them. Don't worry about killing some guy with a family, they're all robots.
Part of the point of Stormtrooper armor, to me, was the intimidation factor and the loss of identity. All of them look alike. They're disposable drones to the Empire.
The intimidation part I can understand but why dehumanize your own soldiers? "Hey, don't feel bad about shooting these guys everyone, they're nobody. Just go right on ahead and kill them all"
for the record, the huge fucking plot hole in independece day is : how the hell can the dr. invent a virus that hurts the mother ship ? i mean, don't the aliens who can travel through the vastness of space have at least a norton antivirus 12000 or something ??
+soulfull M. One plausable theory is that the concept of the virus wasn't aware to them. In their history perhaps noone ever thought of writing a computer virus. I know it's far fetched but it's the only plausible idea I can think of ^^
+soulfull M. I find it more problematic that he was even able to do write it. He literally went from "There is no Area 51!" to "I write a virus for an alien capital ship on my notebook in either a code that I know but the alien ship doesn't or in an alien code that I have seen for like two hours while working at a TV station." in like a few hours ... and it actually works.
T Rex peekaboo at the end is small potatoes compared to the magical cliff that appears in the T Rex paddock for the car to be shoved down, despite that area being on the same level as the road mere minutes earlier when the T Rex crashes through the fence. Why don't people talk about this more- it's a magical cliff!
Ice Reduction Through Daughter Combustion It's my favorite movie of all time, but as continuity errors go - that's a big one. Also, you can see a hand moving the raptor body when the raptors stand in the kitchen doorway. You could make a whole video about Jurassic Park irregularities. (I still love it though)
+crazykenna Oh yeah, who doesn't love it? I even love it in Aliens at the end where she's going to get Newt and she is sticking the two guns together. She grabs a pulse rifle and puts down a flame thrower and vice versa. Even as a child I went 'Hang on...'.
Considering the situation when the T.Rex made her presence known, I think that it is quite plausible that neither the raptors nor their intended prey would notice her approaching footsteps. I'm also convinced that, even if he added her footsteps to the soundtrack during the scene where everyone was dangling from the dinosaur skeleton, nobody in the audience would have noticed.
As the Thumbnail says ninja t-rex I thought he was going talk about how the t-rex walks through the electric fence and then the car gets pushed at the same spot down a massive drop.
+Aspiring Marauder ah wow that makes sense, brilliant picture. Although the more I think about it later on when the others drive to see whats happening they see the car down the drop and drive round to it, then the T-rex appears and chases the jeep. How did the t-rex get in this new enclosure and hows the ground level so drastically different.
+Aspiring Marauder I'm pretty sure that the giant gates and walls should be there to block the natural paths and that at also doesn't explain how they got down there so fast. Like seriously, it takes them like 10 minutes to get a car down there to the exact site. And how would the T-Rex get down there, why would the T-Rex go back into the paddock.
Bersekers were a type of Uruk Hai superior to any other kind, they gain force whent they were hurt (like the Hulk) and their stamina was above any other orc. The problem was that they need a special "magic"/preparation w/e to be bred.
The LOTR one isn't a plot hole, it's a berserker, if you don't understand, the point of a berserker in most fantasy settings and commonly in other settings is someone or something that can take HUGE amount of damage and still keep going, if it was a true berserker from certain setting he could have shot it in the head and it would have carried on going. He was essentially trying to take down a tank with pistol.
I do agree. Storm troopers are probably the worst character and useless of the Star Wars story. The armor does nothing even minor to protect them and their all idiots with a gun. They just look cool. And it's funny how people like to think they are awesome when the see them at conventions, when they are the worse movie soliders ever made. Hahaha
+Adam Aguy as a kid I thought Storm Troopers were menacing. Scary. I loved them! Today I look at them and they are iconic. I still love them. For me there isn't a problem and never has been.
+Adam Aguy Actually, Storm Trooper armour is meant more to reduce the effects of blaster fire by absorbing it so they don't die. They just get knocked out as a result.
HA! in college we used to make a bunch of jokes about Superman Returns. "Man of steel, huh....that MUST have hurt!" "I wonder if he really WAS faster than a speeding bullet...."
You may have this on another list, but another odd thing about the ending of I.D. was that Randy's character was originally suppose to be flying his bi-plane with a bomb strapped to it, into the Alien Beam, but this was changed to him being in one of the F-18s, after one of those test audience showings. I almost wish they had kept the Bi-plane scenes. Also agreed the locals were jerks to him.
The whole 70 percent water thing includes molecules that are necessarily composed of water. I think the more problematic thing is that evaporation is not a chain reaction
Here is a plot hole which should have been #1. Raiders of the Lost Ark: How does Indiana Jones arrive at the small island where they open the Ark? Did he hold on to the outside of the German submarine during its prolonged underwater travel, or did he just hide in a totally crammed submarine and then manage to sneak somehow out before they opened their hatch? Neither makes any sense.
i hate that plot hole too, and i love raiders.. typically ww2 subs stay on the surface. supposedly it never went lower than periscope depth to which he clung to. another plot hole is Egypt. pre ww2 that was like the British back yard. no way the Germans do anything there without the British up their arse.
The Star Wars technical journals go into detail about storm trooper armor. They don't just protect against impact, but they regulate temperature also, hence them being unphased by the cold on Hoth.
"I don't even see the code, anymore. I just see blonde, brunette, redhead..." We're to assume that Joey Pants was visualizing being in the Matrix through reading code and communicating with the program of Mr Smith, since he couldn't jack in on his own. Plot hole filled.
Even more so in Jurassic Park, how does the T. rex paddock turn into a GIANT FUCKING PIT OF DEATH THAT'S 150 ft down when the T. rex was LITERALLY just standing there
+TheKewlGamingMonkey That even bothered me the first time I saw it. Makes absolutely no sense.
i know! even thought, my favorite movie
How does grant magically save Tims life with Chest compressions? Only a defibrillator would work. His best option if it was real is too launch Tims body back on the electric fence lmao. No amount of chest compressions can restart a heart, they are just to simulates a heartbeat to keep blood pumping until you get a strong electric current to use.
+Red and White Warriors of Sevilla. CPR -- cardiopulmonary resuscitation -- is a potentially life-saving procedure that can restart a person's heartbeat and breathing. CPR is often used to revive victims of electric shock, near-drowning, and heart attack. my problem lies with the 10.000 volt that should have fried him from the inside out I guess
+Red and White Warriors of Sevilla. But the nature of an electric fence had it been working in a realistic manner he wouldnt have gotten fried untill he touched down. Way up there he had no ground there would have been no crispy critters same concept as a bird sitting on a electic wire

Thing about Legolas is you answered your own question: the orc was a berserker. When a man becomes a berserker, all acknowledgment of pain is completely disregarded by the brain and they become that much harder to take down because they're defined by extreme reckless abandon, bordering on a death wish. There's a reason Viking berserkers were so feared in battle by the continental Europeans. They were a complete nightmare. Hardly a plot hole if you read into the fact that Legolas had very little experience fighting Uruk-hai by the Battle of Helm's Deep, who are a massive cut above your average orc, and a berserker Uruk-hai is probably even worse than his non-berserk brethren. Also, it might be a matter of strategy that the berserker wasn't sent in first. The way I see it, bombing the wall was probably Plan B if they couldn't take Helm's Deep in the conventional way. Helm's Deep was strategically placed and easily defensible. If you want to take such a good position (and Saurman wanted to take the keep), compromising the walls should be a last resort because you may not have time to repair them in a meaningful way before an army comes to retake it. This is all discounting the Rule of Drama since it doesn't seem to be a legitimate reason to you.
+Jana Lybarger But why didn't Legolas shoot him in the head or heart or any place that would kill him, instead of hitting him in the shoulder TWICE.
+The Masters Mad Face Recall how chaotic it got when the berserker showed up? If nothing else, Rule of Drama was in play. Things had to proceed in the way they did so the entire battle sequence didn't stall out.
+The Masters Mad Face Well....He probably didn't shoot it in the head, on account of the full face metal helmet it's wearing.
Just a thought.
+Jana Lybarger You act like legolas was inexperienced, I'd have believed you too, but as stated by Adam, he RODE A FUCKING SHIELD DOWN A SET OF STAIRS KILLING DOZENS OF ORCS.
+Brutus Kennedy Rutherford Kingsley III True but again, Rule of Drama was in play. If that is not considered as a reason why, then the entire story falls apart. Helm's Deep was always meant to fall to drive the story forward. Legolas's skill is not in question here. The needs of the story demanded he fail. That's all there is to it
Toy Story:
Buzz spends most of the film wholeheartedly believing that he is a real space ranger, denying or brushing off any accusations of being a toy... so why does he freeze like a toy whenever humans show up? It`s even proven later in the film that the toys are completely capable of moving in front of humans should they choose to do so.
That's actually pretty smart. Never thought of that.
Plasmatize maybe he was role-playing?
the sausage party dimension..
It's part of his delusion that he doesn't even know he's doing it. You know, kinda like Donald Trump and lying.
I was actually thinking he froze because the rest of them did
I always found it weirder that the T-rex breaks through a fence, while apparently 5 minutes later there's a huge cliff behind the fence
Good point.
2:33 Because they went to the Prometheus School of Running Away from Things.
CinemaSins reference? Cool.
Doesn't every one in movies?
+Halocrafter101 That's the point. CinemaSins used it as a joke to make fun of how movie characters never think to hide or zigzag between objects to lose their attacker, or simply sidestep a rolling/falling object.
u wanna know y they didn't run left or right in prometheus? it's because they went to the prometheus school of running away from things (reference to cinemasins)
hahahahahaa yes!

It's because people panic and what you see from a third person isn't what they see from a first person perspective.
I found a plothole in your video.
you used a poster for the wrong spiderman 2
+eJs (he means why does spiderman lose his powers because he thinks hes not)
Sprited, that's not a plothole. It's a mistake. But I can understand why you(or the rest of the world, for that matter) may find annoying.
Thats not a plothole dicktard
Wanted to see if anyone else noticed this. Lol only time I've laughed at one of these.
a lot of these I wouldn't consider plot holes, just faults in logic. Some of them weren't even plot related...but I don't disagree with any of the things on the list.
In all fairness with ninja T-Rex...between Grant, Saddler, and the kids trying to get away from the raptors and the mess being made, you probably could have landed a 747 in front of the visitor center and nobody would have noticed.
agreed
+Mr4theLulz1 agreed i was thinking the same thing.
+Mr4theLulz1 A Raptor's eyes are on the side of its head. And from where did the T-Rex attack? The side.
+Mr4theLulz1 exactly I was about to say the same. if you got fucken raptors of all things in your face, literally fighting for your life the last thing you're going to be noticing is any nearby cups of water rippling or a little thumping. Sick of hearing that one
+Mr4theLulz1 The question I have is not how did they not see the T-Rex, but how did it get through the doors without demolishing them?
Biggest hole in Spiderman 2.
1. Doc Oc makes a replica of the sun
2. The sun is a fusion reactor
3. It is hot enough to make plasma, which is basically ionised gas. It produces enough energy to generate more plasma.
4. Therefore, it is hot enough to not only turn water into gas, but it would be more than powerful enough to split Hydrogen and Oxygen out of water.
5. They toss his solar reactor into a river..which is 99.99999% water plus some random shit and the odd dead body or two.
Question: Why did the mini sun not just instantly turn all of the water around it into gas, then rip apart the water into hydrogen and oxygen, then proceed to fuse the hydrogen to make an even bigger star, then end up vaporising the whole city?
i dont think Dr. Stan Lee knew much about fusion....more of an arts guy i think
"You're an emotional Hitler Batman." gold omg
The prometheus one isn't a plot hole, because the map was generated on the bridge of the ship and send back to the scientist, like Google Maps. The map isn't on your pc, you just have access to it. The flying orbs were probes collecting the data and sending it to the ship, that actually has the calculating capacities to generate the map. Once the storm started they were losing periodically the signal, as stated by the captain himself. You....should really pay attention to movies before pointing out plot holes....
+Syl von Braun thank you
My nigga 😎🤘🏾
So everyone just let them get lost? Couldn't they just receive assistance ?!
jerrylee22
Did you see the movie? There was a dangerous storm and the others were busy doing their mutual work and barely made it back to the ship with the storm hitting reaching them as they closed the gate.
***** Oh, yeah, sorry. I kinda forgot about the frantic-ness of the situation. Still, though, the mission seemed like it wasn't planned the best, but what can you do in the unknown, I have hindsight.
the spiderman one made me laugh XD
lets go ask hi questions, but throw a car at him first!
Well, I don't see the "silent" T-Rex in Jurassic Park as being a plothole. The ground shakes, (a little), when it walks, but it's not like it creates a huge earthquake. And when you are running for your life from raptors. And huge skeleton is crashing down on you. I don't think you would notice a little shaking. Earlier in the movie they had nothing to do in the cars. And there was no sounds other than the rain. So of course they would notice the silent bumps.I agree that the fact that it seems like the T-Rex is just standing around waiting for them to turn up is weird.
And then, how did the 25 foot tall T-Rex enter the room?
I'm sorry but you need to be blind and deaf to not notice a gigantic dinosaur walk by you
I'm sorry but you need to be blind and deaf to not notice a gigantic dinosaur walk by you
+HyperTurtleGaming if you are busy trying to save your life you wouldn't notice the T Rex. Humans have temporary deafness and blindness when you are concentrating on something.
The T-Rex shakes the ground as it takes a step, so even the blind and deaf could still know it's coming. You cannot be that distracted its impossible
The curse of Ra's al Ghul: No one outside the animated DC verse can pronounce his name.
no one outside that stuff you mentioned cares

@@edgardflores4992 its pronounced the way its spelt not rash
The "why is everyone still being a dick to Randy Quaid?" is something pretty typical of Emmerich's scripts. (I'm an Emmerich fan, primarily for his grasp of sheer spectacle, but recognise he falls way short in a lot of other aspects of his film-making, not least in story logic.)
He often has people behaving in ways that make no sense for their characters, just to create "conflict" in his dialogue. Another example from the same flick: Goldblum figures out the imminent threat of invasion in the satellite signals, and wants to tell the authorities, so figures the best way is to drive to Washington (apparently magically shortcutting the 4-hour driving time even on clear roads) to tell the President personally; he bullies his dad into taking him, which allows some buddy-road-movie schtick between the two, then when they get to Washington, Goldblum's ex says the Pres is kinda busy, and *Goldblum* immediately says, "See, I told you he wasn't going to listen to us, we should go." *He* was the only one who wanted them to be there; how in the name of Saint Robert McKee does that make even the slightest bit of sense?!
that's not how that scene went
Uruk-Hai Berserkers aren't exactly invincible, just very close to it thanks to their blood-rage letting them ignore pain and power through non-fatal injuries, and in fact there was one of those crazy fuckers at the top of each ladder the Uruk-Hai army tried to raise, which you can see in earlier scenes. It's a bit hard to tell because of the lighting, but they're still clearly half-naked and wield a distinctly massive sword.
but still why couldnt legolas shoot him through the heart or something? i mean he was half naked after all
Well, the one that went in above his collarbone, between the shoulder and the neck, probably did go through either his heart or his trachea, but that's assuming the Uruk-Hai at Helm's Deep *don't* have hyper-dense muscle tissue or something like that, based on how one good swing from Aragorn took Lurtz's head off.
So... I dunno, I guess Legolas should have aimed for his neck instead of his heart.
Captain Faust I always thought perhaps adrenaline in the Berserker- as this one knew he was running to his death etc it may have simply been that adrenaline kept him going, an arrow even to the neck doesn't kill instantly
J. Jabba
It was more that damage to the spinal cord will still paralyze you no matter how much adrenaline you're on, but you do raise another valid point as to why that berserker didn't immediately die.
NEEEEEEERRRRRDDDDDD!!!!!
There is actually a funny story about the Jurassic Park one... Spielberg told the CGI artists he wanted the Rex to burst into the scene at the end (it was a last minute change). The artist replied ''Ok. But from where does he come in?'' and Spielberg replied ''from the right'' when in actual fact the artist was asking Spielberg where the hell is Rex expected to enter the building from. It was just one of those things that makes no sense, but looks awesome on screen.
Also that bit in Jurassic Park that introduces the Trex walking through some cables to get to where the cars are. Later when Dr Grant and the kids are fleeing, the ground where the Trex first appeared is now a gaping pit.
You used the poster to "Amazing" Spider-Man 2 instead! What a plot hole!
Other than that, good video!
The thing about Storm Trooper armor is it doesn't make them impervious to blaster shots. It absorbs most of the energy but some of the the energy still gets through. most of the time the soldiers get up after a few minutes, spend some time in the medical bay then get back to work.
+Travis Moss Yeah.. that's why it leaves a giant smoking hole in them. It doesn't protect them at all against blaster fire. The purpose of Stormtrooper "armor" is symbolism. They are the legions representing The Empire and it's power and authority. You see them, you know they are large and in charge and you better not get in their way. Fear is their true purpose and power.
+Linerunner99
What you say makes sense, I think, but if the "armour" is completely symbolic, you'd think they could have gone with something that still has that visual impact but doesn't actually impede their mobility. Or -- a radical thought, I know -- why not something that is symbolic *but also offers protection*?! You know, like ... armour. ;-)
Shadow in a Cave Because they spent all their money making death stars and had to skimp on the armor. lol
To me the age old trope about their lack of accuracy is really stupid. All "soldier" level bad guys in just about every movie EVER has that same level of aim. Otherwise what do you have? A bunch of dead heroes and movie over? Of course not.. they HAVE to miss or the show is over.
+Linerunner99
Good point! ;-) (I'm confused what I said that prompted a comment about accuracy, but still ... good point! ;-) )
Shadow in a Cave Yeah, it was kind of random but it just popped into my head while talking about Stormtroopers.. lol
Someone misunderstands the meaning of "plot hole" - #10 has nothing to do with the plot.
your writing and commentary is brilliant, very impressed.
+Sliq Killa Exept the whole "Stormtroopers are one-shottable" thing
+5mirkeh true there are several pov that could be argued, but was specificly talking about his writing and narration style.
Sliq Killa I as talking about the editor's factfinding, Stormtrooper armour knocks the user out instead of outright killing them homehow.
+Sliq Killa aren't you that guy glitching queen keeps promoting ?
Sliq Killa you assume that he wrote and edited it... he didn't!
Remember that bit in the matrix where Cypher says "I don't even see the code anymore". What if the corrispondence between the machines and Cypher is all a form of communication that just uses matrix code directly. Then what we see is actually Cypher's interpretation of the conversations while he sits, types and stares at a screen.
+John Dobson correspondence*
And the people who they free from the Matrix to join their revolution do tend to be super hackers, so that's not entirely implausible. It could have been explained a little better though.
Anybody else notice that they use TAS2 instead of Spiderman 2 for the poster?
I found that odd.......PLOT-HOLE!!!!
Yeah, I was about to race to the comment field to say "YOU PUT THE POSTER FOR AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 THERE WHEN YOU MEANT SAM RAIMI'S SPIDER-MAN 2!" but then I thought for two seconds and decided to scan down to the comments and look for the inevitable mention of that exact same fact by someone else because there was no WAY I was the only person in the world to notice that.
The T Rex one can be explained. The people and raptors were fighting each other. It was a pretty chaotic couple minutes. It's not too far fetched to think it got most of the way there before being noticed.
+Vatra A better explanation for the T Rex ninja is it WASN'T REAL LIFE and was JUST A MOVIE and the producers needed another scene with the T Rex in it and didn't want to spoil the pace of the raptor scene by re showing the rippling water in a cup motif.
+Charlie Govenor Well duh. But still it fits for both to say they were too distracted to notice
+Charlie Govenor lame
Jurassic Park The Lost World. How the hell the ships crew got killed when both the T-Rex were locked in the cargo hold? From what I understand it explained it in the book.. but still.
+Steven T That always bothered me too.
+Steven T Wasn't there a loose raptor that stowed away on the ship or something geez it's been years since i watched that movie
+Savitar The Surfing God yup in the book it was raptors but in the movie it was a t rex somehow
edward tucker So THAT'S what happened. Odd they didn't fix that in the movie.
+Steven T That part wasn't in the book (the Lost World, that is). There was supposed to be a scene where it turned out that there were raptors on board the ship, but that scene was cut (not sure if it was ever filmed or not). I guess they just realized that raptors aren't that threatening after everyone witnessed one getting killed by a girl performing gymnastics.
Looper. The whole movie.
bhahahahahahahahahahaah
Movie also wasn't a plot hole.
Harley Quinn You commented twice you moron, also... stop acting like a moron
Telling someone to not laugh at something they found funny is acting like a douchebag
No, I just hate people who act like arseholes, go sit on the naughty step, child
Did anyone else notice the big pot hole in Jurassic Park where the T-Rex is standing on one side of the fence and after it breaks out and forces Doctor Grant and Co over the same way the T-Rex came in there's suddenly a huge drop even to big for the T-Rex to stand where it was casually eating a goat earlier in the same scene
*Plot
+The Rimas Damn, you beat me to it.
+The Rimas This part always bothered me. Even as a kid I thought that was really wrong.
+The Rimas its not a plot hole what so ever its just a 100% fuck up even Spielberg said it was a huge mistake
+The Rimas That's not a plot hole. Just a continuity error.
The berserker from Two Towers doesn't bother me. Legolas hits him all over the place with arrows, and he's wearing a helmet, so he couldn't get a headshot. The berserker just has to live long enough to fling himself into the culvert, and the protagonists didn't really know what he was doing anyhow, since I guess explosives were some sort of new thing.
The real question is how people always seem to be able to move their limbs unimpeded in films, after presumably having muscle fibers and tendons severed by sharp projectiles. But I just put that down to "action scene magic", the same way people always survive bullet wounds and long falls.
+Scottoest Also, the berserkers were bred and trained to be fearless and not feel pain.
It's in the extended literature of the films (not the books) that berserkers feel no pain and thus unless he's dead or hamstrung he will keep running.
the plothole at the end of darknight rises is that it takes more than double the time for the ship to get out of range than it actually had. also, since batman does not eject anywhere in the city, ejecting beyond the horizon doesn't save him, he is well inside the killing range of the bomb. he dies, and that whole part with alfred is a dream sequence of alfred.
+rohadt Anyad The twist in The Dark Knight Rises is that Batman ejected when his batplane passed over the bridge. The entire inner cockpit ejected from the vehicle - like the helicopter in Goldeneye. Bruce's pensive look was due to his wiping out his whole Wayne legacy, leaving the Batman - his life's work - behind and becoming a literal nobody, which is a death of sorts. That he didn't let Alfred know is just plain a dick move, especially since the guy was just trying to give Bruce the truth about Rachel, which should have been easier to swallow since Selina was in the picture. The biggest lapse of logic in this move was how Bruce's spine healed and he got back into prime shape in five months despite being fed the subsistence diet of the typical third-world prisoner. And the knee. You know Bane broke Bruce's knee brace when he found it.
AwayAWAY
at the time he flew over the bridge, the time for the bomb had already passed. also, he got back to gotham without any resources in a day.
Poor Alfred...
Plot holes in the video:
The Amazing Spiderman 2 poster is used for Spider Man 2
A First Order storm trooper is used when talking about the Empire, which was *replaced* with the First Order
Oh come on! Alfred was obviously hallucinating when he saw Bruce, even he knew he wasn't real.
shit man. you just leaked the last movie in batman. turns out alfred was just tripping dicks all day taking drugs to cope with the loss. he hallucinated the character of batman, and none of it ever happened
Bruce and Selena WERE alive at the end.
Alfred didn't know about Selena and Bruce, so why would he hallucinate Selena with Bruce.
The logic behind it is shaky, but then again. *ehem* "He's Batman"
I can explain this, they were all a figment of Alfred's imagination this entire time, and he he had never been able to cope with the homicide of the Waynes, which included a young Bruce Wayne. So he made up a fairytale world of masked heros and villiains to keep his demented mind occupied. All he really does is sit in that very cafe and sip leftover Macchiato and breadcrumbs from the last occupants of the table every day.
The Dark Knight thing: How do you know that Wayne had no contact with Alfred at all between the bomb and the café?
How do you know that Wayne didn't call him from his batphone while he was still in the escape pod under 20 feet of water (that's how he escaped the explosion and radiation, btw), and that the funeral scene was just Alfred acting (possibly by pulling from the emotion that he'd probably never speak to the man he raised as a son again)?
It's not as much a plot hole as it is an unexplained event.
a bigger plot hole was in the dark knight when Joker shows up at Bruce's party. after Batman saves Rachel, it suddenly shifts to the next day with no resolution to the chaos, or the fact that the joker was probably murdering people inside
+Marty Schriver Aye, I was like; where dose Bruce sleep now? Theres a MANIAC in his loving room, murdering his FRIENDS XDD
I'm sorry, but how is 'why do they wear armour' classed as a FUCKING PLOT HOLE?
It's more like "Why is their armor so ineffective"
Storm trooper armor is meant to disperse the damage of a laser across the body rendering the wearer unconscious rather than dead. This means that most troopers you see gunned down actually survived to fight another day.
For Spider-Man 2 you showed the amazing Spider-Man 2
Alfred's "I failed you" gets me every time
+DCUOPuppetmaster me too. I cry like a little bitch.
Martín Enemigo Your profile pic fits very well xD
I guess we need to redefine the term "plot-hole" to make this video work...
+The Ferryman - I'm confused by your comment. I understand the term in the frame of this Wikipedia definition: "In fiction, a plot hole, plothole or plot error is a logical inconsistency within a story. Such inconsistencies include such things as illogical or impossible events, and statements or events that contradict earlier events in the storyline." My perception of the video is that it provides examples within those parameters.
*****
no
I agree. 10 is not even close to a plot hole.
+Steve Perrin - Thank you for your comment. I agree that the storm trooper armor is not the tightest example, but I offer these mitigating considerations: It is included only at number 10 and it does represent a logical inconsistency, an entire army wearing clumsy, all encompassing equipment that appears to have no effective purpose, given the battles being fought. In fact, I've always been distracted by that odd bit of unjustified stage dressing. What's the point of the suits, besides looking sinister-cool? And why white? Just in case of a battle on Hoth?
~
Well, it works for me as a broadly interpreted plot hole, but I guess I can understand the point you're making of its limited impact on the story line, per se. Still, I think the vid, overall, falls well within the confines of the definition. Hey, I appreciate that you were specific.
*****
no
"We're talking at least 800 watts, here." hahaha! Brilliant.
+Jason Crain Hahahah i wasnt even watching the video and laughed so hard when i heard it, such wit many lolz
+kornandfoofighters These guys are so consistently funny
Technically, Legolas missed the berserker both times because the arrows he fires (his green ones with the yellow flights) are not the same ones that hit the berserker (white flights that the other elves use) so it's another elf's fault. lol.
Another plot hole you missed in Independence Day was the fact that the alien ships hovering over the city were 15 miles wide. I mean, if the humans were to be able to bring them down, they couldn't do so without crushing everything the ships came down on. And why would the aliens use fire when all they had to do is bring the ships downward and crush everything underneath?
+wavyedd Because reasons.

I hate comments like this. The video said top 10 plot holes in movies, not every plot hole in every movie. He only said ten, not every single one.
Heh, wrong poster for Spiderman 2
Plot hole.
That dig at Damon Lindelof earned you a sub
I always thought that cipher was having a meeting on the computer, like typing and watching. remember he comments that he doesn't even see the coding anymore and neo "scares the bejesus out of him" when he walks in as if he's up to something bad. But then he realizes neo can't read coding yet and relaxes. Then again, I don't know how he could make the point about the steak so idk.
+nick highland indeed. initialy not to be taken literaly I think but more like u said he's simple reading code, but that begs the question if cipher is in a line of communication with Smith how can they not track them? but then the steak thing. bit of a mind fuck haha
Storm Trooper armor, along with most other things designed by the Empire, is made to comply with the Tarken Doctrine: rule through fear of force rather than force itself.
Omg Prometheus explained the storm ruined their communications and brought down their technology for a brief second mate. The whole entire movie Prometheus gives away what the plot of the movie is about. David does the things he does because it is to show he has independent thoughts and creativity. It's the reason why he spies on Shaws dreams. He's a themetic piece to show a creation go outside of the will of its creator. And I could go on and on and on.
David does what he does because he thinks it will get him closer to his goal or should I say Wayland's goal and that immortality. Wayland programmed him to do whatever it takes to achieve his primary objective. BTW it is scrary as fuck to have a car speeding right at you a lot of ppl stand still because they are frozen with fear so is safe to say ppl don't always make the best decisions in situations like that.
my name is JEFF Yes, point is there was a point to ever David made. It's not that confusing
tho after watching some video about how storm trooper armor works. its pretty effective actually. a hit doesnt directly kill you, you just pass out on the field. back in clone time, they were pretty much the same. so when your tactic is to overwhelm the enemy with numbers with least amount of casualties, this armor works perfectly. sadly its designed just for laser and other type of weapons, doesnt really hold against a two ton boulder.
rexy is a girl...
Wha...?
+Rex Ablett the t rex in JP is a girl
+BlackMamba18 No one really cares. It doesn't really matter at the end of the day.
+The Fan Without a Face it's a god damn mistake in a god damn mistake video!
Starscream Jesse
And yet no one really cares because at the end of the day the gender amounts to absolutely nothing in the movie. Besides odds are it was a slip of the tongue or a slight mistake.
Stormtrooper armor is effective against light blasterbolts, in melee combat and is above all meant to deal with a variety of climate problems. (regulates temp and stuff)
As for it never doing much in the movies: 1) heroes are heroes. 2) The Battle of Endor defied common sense in many ways. Like how trees smashed steel in the way it did. And the rocks ewoks threw were even in any way a threat given their lack of strength. Not to mention the way the Executor went out. Baseline... they did a Lotr basically.
the Armour does protect the. they appear to die because it spreads out the damage which stuns them then a medic comes and revives them after the battle! :P
+mad scientist That is possibly the saddest comment I have ever read.
how?
mad scientist I live a very sheltered life.
The Imperial Alliance had no care to spend good money on their armies so they gave them sub-par dispersion armour instead of The First Order, who had fewer numbers gave soldiers excellent protection. Relying on sheer numbers rather than conserving battle-ready soldiers, the Imperial army ultimately was to intimidate. Tactics that a lot of militaries have used and use today
+mad scientist Lets just be honest and say it was bad writing with no great thought put into it as long as the heroes win in the end. That's all it is.
For the Lord of the Rings one, yes they did send them into battle first, they were the first guys on the ladders remember, they were sent in to decimate the Elves as much as possible in a frenzy... maybe the torch carrier was magically engineered to feel nothing... Or took a potion Saruman created to give him some sort of adrenaline boost which would likely kill him in minutes, so in that time he sprints towards the wall, able to ignore everything - so even if Legolas shot his eye out, he'd keep running
the Uruk carrying the torch needed the rest of the army to be his meat shields, otherwise instead of a few arrows he'd have a few hundred in him.
Plus it's called a 'Berserker' so it's probably pumped full of magic (drugs) to make it temporarily not feel pain
+bladeriders it was shot in the head TWICE. Pretty powerful painkillers he got there.
OR it was an inside job. Don't forget The One Ring's main power was to rule all the other decoder-rings, and Gandalf was a Captain Planet Team all along! (he likely had the no-use love-ring)
+gagnashdiak x shoulder, not head.
Two big ones I was expecting:
1) How the hell does Bruce Willis not know he's dead until the end of Sixth Sense? Nobody talks to him for days/weeks except for the kid who can talk to dead people!
2) Why does Buzz Lightyear go limp like all the other toys when a human shows up, but refuses to believe until the end of the film that he is just a toy?
+Kert McAfee Number one is actually much worse than that since his character has actually been dead for months and yet his psychiatry/therapy office is still up and operating.
Legolas one isn't a plot hole. He hit him, therefore its not a plot hole on his part, and Boromir took far more arrows and kept fighting, yet he's just like any other man. Don't just make up plot holes to fill your quota.
+Louis Clegg I think he's saying he could have gotten a killshot. Heart, head, heck, even taking out his knee or foot would have worked. Shoulder is just a giant knot of muscle, not the kind of place Legolas should be aiming at when dude is packing A BOMB.
ThunderPaladin He hit a moving target and missed his head by a few inches, I would call that a pretty good shot. Especially since he was in a battle for numbers with Gimli, who's on the same power level as a human.
Legolas was able to kill those warg riders with one arrow. Much faster moving targets on uneven terrain.
The nice thing about the Donner cut is that it fixes the “magic kiss” plot hole.
The T-Rex plot hole was caused by Spielberg’s desire to make her the hero. The early story boards show Muldoon shooting both of them (That’s right! He was supposed to live!) and leading everyone out of the visitor’s center.
I’d like to see that version of Jurassic Park.

There's a scene in Independence Day when Will Smith's family are looking at the charred and destroyed city, and there's a perfect, untouched palm tree on the street surrounded by blackened car husks.
+Vex not really a plot hole, just a careless continuity error
The armor of the stoormtroopers lets the solider survive a blaster shot, although.....incapacitated and knocked out...
Storm trooper body armor:
The military thinks it is positive to strip soldiers of their individual identities. The specific branch I served for does not, but for the role of, say, a storm trooper (or its counterpart, a Nazi soldier), individual thinking is bad. Full body uniform helps with this.
+Austemagne I happen to agree. I believe body armor does a lot more in the star wars extended universe, you even get light saber resistant metals etc. However, as for how body armor is portrayed in the movies the only explanation I can think of is the one you gave. It even explains the helmets, even if the real reason for the helmets was so they could reuse extras.
+Austemagne to rid individuality and create terror and fear in the local populace
+Austemagne
Storm Troopers are named after Nazi Storm Troopers.
The Alfred thing is because his death is easier to fake if his beloved caretaker and sole confidant is honestly heartbroken, and he knew Alfred well enough to know that he was strong enough to cope with Bruce's death (especially since he was more than half expecting it to happen any time Bruce goes out as Batman) and seeing him in Florence like that (or whatever city Alfred decides to change his normal vacation to, some Bruce still has his Batman skills as well as Selena's trailers and resources) was to fulfill Alfred's stated dream of seeing Bruce happily married and not being Batman.
When Vader has Leia right in front of him and can't sense that she is force sensitive or his own daughter
TheJohnnyWonderful how the hell should he feel it's his daughter?
Funny thing (and I've seen someone else mention this before): I just watched a WatchMojo episode before watching this and I love the change from "we wrote this script in two hours and made a video as fast as possible" to the charasmatic and funny commentary you provide.
If the Berserker from Lord of Rings was wearing the Stormtroopers Suit nothing would have happened
I think Bruce Wayne was keeping tabs on Alfred. He finally had an opportunity to show himself to him in florence with no chance of the media recognizing him.
#10 was a psychological thing. All the troops were the same, uniformity in the empire. Conform or die. Also, as someone fighting storm troopers if they all look the same, kill one, another one takes its place, did you really kill the first one? I think it also protects them against some gas attacks, it seals and has an air supply to survive in space and harsh environments on planets... Although, I'm not sure if I read that somewhere or if I'm making it up. /shrug
It also protects them from blaster shots
Couple things.
1) In The Force Awakens, FInn says that the masks do not filter out toxic gas, just smoke.
2) By hiding their faces, they make it way easier for rebels to kill them. Don't worry about killing some guy with a family, they're all robots.
Storptroopers doesn't have familys
Part of the point of Stormtrooper armor, to me, was the intimidation factor and the loss of identity. All of them look alike. They're disposable drones to the Empire.
The intimidation part I can understand but why dehumanize your own soldiers? "Hey, don't feel bad about shooting these guys everyone, they're nobody. Just go right on ahead and kill them all"
for the record, the huge fucking plot hole in independece day is :
how the hell can the dr. invent a virus that hurts the mother ship ? i mean, don't the aliens who can travel through the vastness of space have at least a norton antivirus 12000 or something ??
+soulfull M. We all know Norton is useless bloatware.
+soulfull M. That's not a plot hole.
+soulfull M. One plausable theory is that the concept of the virus wasn't aware to them. In their history perhaps noone ever thought of writing a computer virus. I know it's far fetched but it's the only plausible idea I can think of ^^
+soulfull M. I find it more problematic that he was even able to do write it. He literally went from "There is no Area 51!" to "I write a virus for an alien capital ship on my notebook in either a code that I know but the alien ship doesn't or in an alien code that I have seen for like two hours while working at a TV station." in like a few hours
... and it actually works.
Geographus666 that's exactly my point.
The cafe that Alfred spots Bruce (and his ride or die) is in Venice, not Florence Plumpy.
T Rex peekaboo at the end is small potatoes compared to the magical cliff that appears in the T Rex paddock for the car to be shoved down, despite that area being on the same level as the road mere minutes earlier when the T Rex crashes through the fence. Why don't people talk about this more- it's a magical cliff!
+crazykenna The magical cliff has always confused me as well.
Haha I'm not the only one
+crazykenna I watch JP at least once a year, how the fuck have I never noticed that?!
Ice Reduction Through Daughter Combustion It's my favorite movie of all time, but as continuity errors go - that's a big one. Also, you can see a hand moving the raptor body when the raptors stand in the kitchen doorway. You could make a whole video about Jurassic Park irregularities. (I still love it though)
+crazykenna Oh yeah, who doesn't love it? I even love it in Aliens at the end where she's going to get Newt and she is sticking the two guns together. She grabs a pulse rifle and puts down a flame thrower and vice versa. Even as a child I went 'Hang on...'.
Considering the situation when the T.Rex made her presence known, I think that it is quite plausible that neither the raptors nor their intended prey would notice her approaching footsteps. I'm also convinced that, even if he added her footsteps to the soundtrack during the scene where everyone was dangling from the dinosaur skeleton, nobody in the audience would have noticed.
The super advanced aliens in Independence day were computer hacked via a macbook with something like a 100MHZ CPU.
I spotted that one.
+zenoist2 lol. ye They only had PCs
The only thing worse than a plot hole is someone's ignorance mistaking something for a plot hole...
you made me feel dumb with the matrix one, good job
Adam is crazy good at his job, usually really funny too. I love these videos.
the beserkers were the 1st ones into the fight, they were on the 1st wave of the ladders ......
I don't think the Stormtroopers wear it as armour but more of a uniform. Something everyone to associate with terror and fear.
As the Thumbnail says ninja t-rex I thought he was going talk about how the t-rex walks through the electric fence and then the car gets pushed at the same spot down a massive drop.
I noticed that in the film and got really annoyed at it.
+Aspiring Marauder no. In the film it says "keep quiet!! They're approach the tyrannosaurus paddock" and that included the entire area
+Aspiring Marauder ah wow that makes sense, brilliant picture. Although the more I think about it later on when the others drive to see whats happening they see the car down the drop and drive round to it, then the T-rex appears and chases the jeep. How did the t-rex get in this new enclosure and hows the ground level so drastically different.
+olliemad I found that bit too because that is just one on the biggest plot holes I have ever seen
+Aspiring Marauder I'm pretty sure that the giant gates and walls should be there to block the natural paths and that at also doesn't explain how they got down there so fast. Like seriously, it takes them like 10 minutes to get a car down there to the exact site. And how would the T-Rex get down there, why would the T-Rex go back into the paddock.
Bersekers were a type of Uruk Hai superior to any other kind, they gain force whent they were hurt (like the Hulk) and their stamina was above any other orc. The problem was that they need a special "magic"/preparation w/e to be bred.
When you use the wrong Spider-Man poster.
+DanPlays what?
this channel is basically watchmojo with PERSONALITY and i love it so much
Just because someone claims they were abducted by aliens (even if aliens prove to be real) doesn't mean they were actually abducted...
The LOTR one isn't a plot hole, it's a berserker, if you don't understand, the point of a berserker in most fantasy settings and commonly in other settings is someone or something that can take HUGE amount of damage and still keep going, if it was a true berserker from certain setting he could have shot it in the head and it would have carried on going. He was essentially trying to take down a tank with pistol.
You keep saying those words (plot hole). I do not think they mean what you think they mean.--Inigo Montoya
Storm trooper armour does work, it absorbs the laser blast and renders them unconscious instead of dead
wow are you rude and sarcastic, so I subbed.
I'm pretty sure that Bruce wasn't actually at the cafe at the end.
I do agree. Storm troopers are probably the worst character and useless of the Star Wars story. The armor does nothing even minor to protect them and their all idiots with a gun. They just look cool. And it's funny how people like to think they are awesome when the see them at conventions, when they are the worse movie soliders ever made. Hahaha
+Zachary Proctor hahahaha thanks i guess....
+CruxG.O.D haha so what niggas are you referring to in 1066? hahaha ( i cant wait what the reply will be)
+Adam Aguy as a kid I thought Storm Troopers were menacing. Scary. I loved them! Today I look at them and they are iconic. I still love them. For me there isn't a problem and never has been.
+Adam Aguy Actually, Storm Trooper armour is meant more to reduce the effects of blaster fire by absorbing it so they don't die. They just get knocked out as a result.
They are the redshirt squad :)
HA! in college we used to make a bunch of jokes about Superman Returns. "Man of steel, huh....that MUST have hurt!" "I wonder if he really WAS faster than a speeding bullet...."
deus rex machina that's why
You may have this on another list, but another odd thing about the ending of I.D. was that Randy's character was originally suppose to be flying his bi-plane with a bomb strapped to it, into the Alien Beam, but this was changed to him being in one of the F-18s, after one of those test audience showings. I almost wish they had kept the Bi-plane scenes. Also agreed the locals were jerks to him.
I dont think What Culture knows what a plot hole is.
+Shafted Cinema That is what I was thinking
The whole 70 percent water thing includes molecules that are necessarily composed of water. I think the more problematic thing is that evaporation is not a chain reaction
Here is a plot hole which should have been #1. Raiders of the Lost Ark: How does Indiana Jones arrive at the small island where they open the Ark? Did he hold on to the outside of the German submarine during its prolonged underwater travel, or did he just hide in a totally crammed submarine and then manage to sneak somehow out before they opened their hatch? Neither makes any sense.
i hate that plot hole too, and i love raiders.. typically ww2 subs stay on the surface. supposedly it never went lower than periscope depth to which he clung to. another plot hole is Egypt. pre ww2 that was like the British back yard. no way the Germans do anything there without the British up their arse.
+dobravery Good point about the surface travel. Still, he was taking a hell of a risk then!
The Star Wars technical journals go into detail about storm trooper armor. They don't just protect against impact, but they regulate temperature also, hence them being unphased by the cold on Hoth.
You guys missed *An Inconvenient Truth.* The entire thing is one big plot hole.
this comment is so edgy I'm afraid I might accidentally cut myself
"I don't even see the code, anymore. I just see blonde, brunette, redhead..." We're to assume that Joey Pants was visualizing being in the Matrix through reading code and communicating with the program of Mr Smith, since he couldn't jack in on his own. Plot hole filled.
