Plot Holes/Shit that didn't make sense in Films

hahahahaha

But its not like they knew his name was peter parker or knew who he was. And I don't think anyone took a picture of him either.

 

[huey]

Knowing his powers, how fast and strong he is, would u blackmail spiderman? He would just hang u from a skyscraper or someshit

"Law Abiding Citizen" was full of plotholes

1. How did dude know what cell (or jail) he'd be put in. (He would sneak out every night and kill ppl, that would take MONTHS of planning and an inside connection)

2. Jamie Foxx played a DA. Yet he was running around town like a detective doing policework and shit.

3. The final scene, Jamie Foxx puts the bomb BACK in dudes cell, then walks off all slow and cool. Again, Foxx is a DA, not a bomb expert. How the FUCK would he know how much time he'd have before the bomb exploded. How would he know how big the explosion would be (for all he knew, it could have killed EVERYONE in the building -- including him).

Can't remember the other plot holes but there were ALOT.

@copper I actually got it from redbox

And no lie the opening scene to that movie was dope as hell. If the entire movie had been like that it would have been better.

@loo loo I thought it was weird that the lawyers were waiting for something to happen and it didn't so they go jump in their cars. I know the bombs were supposedly in the gas tanks but a true bomb expert would have found that shit.

1. i think they tried explaining it when they talked to that guy in the underpass and he said Dude is a tactician brillaint genius killer blah blah, basically he planned to be in there. He killed his cellmate so he could get to solitary confinement.. and i may be wrong about this but in the tunnel he built i think it had access to multiple cells.

2. spot on

3. your expecting to much realism lol

Listen, Training Day is probably in my top 3 movies of all time.

I watched that movie maybe close to 40 times.

But I keep asking myself questions about certain scenes and happenings in the movie that I've always felt could have been scripted better.

Let me begin:

- When Jake froze up in Roger's house, not once but twice.. by not taking the money claiming he only "cashes in LAPD checks", and then when he refused to shoot Roger after Alonzo told him to. Why didnt Alonzo right then and there end his life? Why did he allow Jake to take his own gun, point it in his face with all his boys in the room, and order them not to shoot Jake? And to make things even more confusing, first thing Alonzo does when he hops in his car after that scene, is you see him on the phone with the Mexican, and he says very clearly "make sure that bathtub is clean".. meaning kill Jake and wash away the evidence.

- When Jake makes it out of the Mexican house alive, comes back all the way back to Nickerson Gardens looking for Alonzo.. he manages to find him, only for Alonzo to escape through the back window. Then, once they are on the roof, Alonzo gets the upper hand and beats Jake to sleep. But he lets him live. Why? After all the shit Alonzo put him through, wasnt he scared that Jake might wake up and regain conciousness and then snitch? Why not kill him once and for all and get rid of him?

Right now I cant think of my other issues with the storyline, but I have two or three more issues with the plot.

It just makes no sense that Alonzo let him live inside Rogers house. Why? Jake already clearly showed he was not going to be lured into becoming dirty.

i think the simple answer is that if he killed him then the movie is over essentially. best i could come with.

You have to watch the DVD with the Director's Commentary turned on. Fuqua explains that Jake is the cop Alonzo would've been had he not been brought up by a racist FTO (Field Training Officer). He also points out that Alonzo actually does give Jake real advice and genuine moments of concern; he's just in a fucked up position with the Russians, so his life-or-death situation supersedes all the good-guy intentions he has about Jake. They even show in the deleted scenes Alonzo explaining one of the fucked up moments to Jake, if I recall.

The fight scenes in Kill Bill and 30 Days of Night (or any other fight scene where it's 20 vs. 1).

When 20 people have one person surrounded, why do they attack the person one by one. If all 20 of you jumped the person at the same time, you'd win. But no, instead for some dumb reason (better yet, for theatrical purposes), they let 1 person attack at a time. And then all 20 end up dead.

How the hell can Uma Therman's character beat up the entire Crazy 88 squad? There were like 200 of them. And they never jumped her. They just approached her 1 by 1. When one got killed, then the next one would attack. So unrealistic.

And how come 20 vampires can't kill one guy (Josh Hartnett)?

 

[smittysmith]

The dogs in "Day After Tommorrow". Made no damn sense at all.

The ending to Matrix Reloaded. Niggas was in the theatre like "da fuck???".

Several more I can't think of at the moment...

It just makes no sense that Alonzo let him live inside Rogers house. Why? Jake already clearly showed he was not going to be lured into becoming dirty.

Alonzo needed Jake as an alibi for Rogers death. The story they agreed on was that the new guy Jake shot Roger. Whenever an officer discharges his weapon, there's a lengthy investigation, paperwork, etc. The officers dealings are more closely scrutinized, and that's the last thing a guy like Alonzo or his crew needed. They were crooked, so they chose Jake because he's clean. He's a new officer with no skeletons that could potentially turn up under all that extra scrutiny. So they needed Jake alive for that purpose.

As far as the ending scene, Alonzo didn't have a gun when he was fighting Jake on the roofso he couldn't have killed him at that time. When Jake went to Eva's apartment, he had Alonzo put all his weapons in a pillowcase. Alonzo only had the shotgun strapped underneath the bed. it looked like a double barrel shotgun if I remember, and he definitely fired at least twice in the apartment, so without anymore bullets, he didn't have a weapon available to kill Jake. Plus he was trying to hurry and make his appointment with the Russians.
