People Break Down The Biggest Plot Holes They've Ever Noticed

People Break Down The Biggest Plot Holes They've Ever Noticed

I don't mean to nitpick, but...


In Back To The Future, Marty makes sure that his parents end up together. Being such an important part of their relationship and why they're married, wouldn't they remember him? Or wonder why their son looks just like the guy that brought them together?

Redditor u/crabsmoker75 asked people about the biggest plot holes they've ever seen, and people broke down why even their most favorite movies and shows were flawed.

10. Professor Xavier wasn't thinking smart

"In X-Men, Xavier can't track Magneto because of his helmet, but he knows Sabertooth is there with him, so why not just track him?"

9. A good premise that fell apart

"In the Butterfly Effect, the entire premise and point of the movie was that tiny changes in the past can drastically change the future.

Yet, while in jail, the main character went back in time to stab his hands so that he would have "the stigmata' on his hands to scare someone. This made zero sense in the context of the movie, and was a complete a**-pull that went against the entire rest of the movie."

8. Players sat there asking, "Why can't Fawkes do it?"

"Fallout 3 before DLC, having to die instead of having your super mutant friend handle the massive radiation."

7. Maybe Ariel knew she had sloppy handwriting

"The Little Mermaid. Ariel can write. She could have just wrote it down for Eric. No miming involved."

6. Harry making his life harder for some reason

"why doesn't Harry Potter use his magic to cure his eyes so he doesn't have to wear glasses?:

"Why does he try and grab a letter out of the air instead of one of the hundreds on the ground? He's not the brightest which is a shame because his parents were extremely bright and talented."

5. Meanwhile, Dumbledore wasn't the best decision maker either

"All Dumbledore had to do was get the Ministry to check Sirius Black's memories and they would've known he was innocent. Especially since at that time he had a lot of influence in the Ministry. It was said by Hagrid in the first book that people had been wanting Dumbledore to be Minister for a while."

4. When editors make bad cuts

"The Lost World: Jurassic Park

The scene of the boat with the T-Rex arriving at the harbor. With the edits and scene cuts that were made here, this scene makes zero sense. How did everyone onboard die? What killed them? The Rex is in the hold and clearly didn't get out. Even if it had, how did it get to the crew on the bridge without completely destroying it?

Supposedly there were raptors on the boat as well, but this bit was cut from the final print, yet the aftermath of their presence is left in the film? Why?"

3. Is he a prince or not?

"I'm sure someone else will say this too, but in Aladdin, his first wish was 'Make me a Prince' then he makes a grand princely entrance. Then for the rest of the movie, he's struggling with the fact that he's a beggar and not a prince but ... the most powerful being in the universe (with ittty bitty living space) made him a prince ... so how is he not a prince?

2. Time makes no sense in the Dragon Ball universe, just deal with it

"Namek will blow up in 5 minutes."

1. Rich parents?

"How spongebob manage to have his own home with a garden , a massive library , sun roof and other extremities and still manage to afford boating school given that mr crabs is extremely stingy"

There's no one way to successfully raise a child.

Tons of books on parenting are available to offer guidance and they are suggestions drawing on different experiences and perspectives.

But who needs books? Not all the answers can be found in them since every situation is different.

Raising children successfully is typically achieved by first-time parents who fake it 'til they make it.

When it comes to talking about the birds and the bees, that's one topic that both parents and prepubescent children tend to be very evasive about discussing.

Sometimes "the talk" is awkward, but other times, it is extremely successful.

"What's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours."

A common ideology when people enter committed romantic relationships.

This doesn't mean, however, that people don't still appreciate a moment or two of privacy, even from the person to whom they are otherwise committed, body and soul.

Particularly when it comes to their phones.

While some people have no concern about their partners seeing anything they have stored on their phones, others might prefer that everything found on their phones stays away from their partner's eyes.

Be it for a text chain they'd rather remain private, or to avoid judgment for their choice of apps, knowing their partner would disapprove, or would at the very least mock them endlessly.

Sometimes there is no specific reason a person gives others the heebie-jeebies.

Certain people are just born with that vibe.

And other people are just flat-out crazy.

There are small mannerisms and big ticks that just send a clear message to stay a few yards back.

More often than not, we can't exactly put our finger on it... but something inside us just knows.

Better to know and be warned I guess.

It's true that sometimes we just can't understand what someone's going through until we walk in their shoes.

This can be especially true of physical ailments, particularly the less visible conditions that many would rather assume are figments of the sufferer's imagination.

On the flip side, we can try to be empathetic, but truly, sometimes until you've experienced it yourself, you just can't imagine how bad it is.
