Title: Blow huge holes in movies with LSOC
Post by: Dugout DickStone on January 22, 2011, 03:36:02 PM
Okay, in Ferris Bueller's day off, it it is supposed to be the spring semester of his senior year. And they live out side of chicago, right? But after Cameron freaks out over the mileage on the Ferrari, and he goes catatonic, they go swiming in ferris's pool. In March/April in Chicago? And the pool is already open and they can run around in swimsuits?
I don't think so Mr. Hughes. Busted!

Just read this last night so it's pretty funny that you brought this movie up.
Quote
Mr. Rooney was the mean old Dean of Students who spent the entire movie trying to prove that Ferris was skipping school while pretending to be sick. What a mistrustful tight-ass. Why the hell does he care so much if one student takes a day off?
Let's get the obvious out of the way: this is his goddamned job. He is the Dean of Students, not the Dean of Not Giving A Damn. People are always all up the public schools system's digestive tract for not taking a more active interest in their students and that's exactly what Mr. Rooney was doing. It doesn't matter if, on a personal level, he's a dick or not -- he is literally paid with your tax money to make sure kids aren't doing exactly what Ferris did. The kid can go to a museum and drive a sports car on the weekend. During the week, he and the other kids are Rooney's responsibility so they can, you know, get an education.
And you know what? He was right all along. Ferris was skipping school. Worse yet, he lied to his parents and friends about being sick and pretty much got the whole town involved in the farce. He lied, he stole, and he caused millions in property damage by destroying Cameron's dad's beautiful car. That's not adorable, that's just being an egocentric male genitals. It wouldn't have been a satisfying movie ending to see Rooney expose Bueller for his douchebaggery, but it would have been by far the more just outcome. What happens instead is that Rooney loses his wallet and almost has his nipples ripped off by a Rottweiler.
And we're asked to sit back and say, "serves him right for caring about the future of our country!"

During the entire 11 flight, no one bothered to check on the dead dude or the dude that's been in the bathroom for 11 hours. Also, he drives a tractor type thing through the wall of a gun store that has all sorts of big ass guns and rockets but no alarm system. Pretty hard to believe that.

You know, this has always bothered me about this movie, especially the stuff about Ferris being a douche. Which he is? I didn't like him. He's that drunk clown at the party that acts like a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) and yet no one can see through him but you (think Barack Obama).
A thing that always bugged me in a movie--a good friend pointed this out recently--is in Empire Strikes Back ...
Han, Leia, and company are being chased by the empire in the Falcon.
Meanwhile, Luke is receiving his Jedi training on Dagobah.
The movie cuts back and forth between the two, and the two storylines converge at Lando's cloud city AT THE SAME TIME.
So ...
Either the Empire was chasing Han Solo and Princess Leia for months and months and months, or ...
... it only takes a few hours to complete Jedi training.

Not really a Huge hole in plot, but In the fast and the Furious Series None of the stunt cars have drive train, which is pretty common for most movies, but as a movie directed at Car guys alot of guys where PTFO. also in edward scissor hands the last scene he is carving ice sculptures, How the eff do you get ice blocks up stairs in warm weather with scissor hands?

At my high school job, the janitor moonlighted as a midget mime. Well, he was a full-time midget I guess, but worked as both a janitor and a mime. Anyway, I learned a lot about mimes from Shakes and still own the movie on DVD.
Pete, you may have seen said mime when you were picking up supplies for FamilyReunionPak.

Because the nazgul would have destroyed the eagles had they tried that. Just because you see the eagles fight and beat the nazgul at the end of the battle does not mean they had the power to do it earlier. Plus Frodo or whoever probably would have been too weak to drop it from the eagle in the first place, just like what actually happened when they finally got there. And the eagles are very independent creatures with their own agenda. You can't just assume they would just blindly do anything asked of them by the good guys.

In Shawshank, after Andy has escaped through the tunnel, the warden enters his locked cell and finally finds the tunnel behind the poster of Racquel Welch is secured on all 4 corners, even though no one else was in the cell after Andy left through the tunnel.
Oh, I just blew a hole in SR the size of that tunnel.

In Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, at the end of the boat chase in Venice, the boat gets chopped up by that huge propeller, and at the last second they abandon the boat and get rescued. In the quick shot of them mounting the other boat, it shows the boat that just got chopped up as being completely unharmed. :confused:
I have always loved that movie, but it bugs me every time I see that shot.

1st pee wee herman movie - when he's locking up his bike, and he's pulling the chain out of his basket, you cal CLEARLY see the chain being fed through the bottom of the basket - how the editors missed that? I will never know.
Also, in Godfather 1 - Santino is going to beat the ever living SHlT out of his sister's husband - and the punches are horribly missed. THIS should have been caught.

Also lol at how everything wrapped up nicely in the end. SPOILER ALERT [spoiler] Parents desperate to find their children, cops, media show up at the beach. I understand that. bad person bank/real estate douche and his pussy son showing up with paperwork= pretty stupid. Also the confidence to destroy the paperwork after the mere sight of the "jewels" was brazen. [/spoiler]
not really plot hole-ish but noteworthy:
bad person bank/real estate douche's pussy son reading guns and ammo and wearing a one-zie in the bathroom when the pipes blew, then screaming "DADDY!" after falling to the floor.
AB/REDS screaming like a weirdo FP: "Andie! You Goonie!!" when it was clear he wasn't going to get the sex.

Who do you think they would put in charge? America? We get up in arms about Mexicans. South Africa is one of the few believable countries that could have been chosen. It's developed enough to keep the aliens from causing trouble, but not developed enough to keep the rest of the world from shitting on them.

I appreciate everyone blowing holes in Hollywood hotshot movies but I want to kind of clarify this thread. It is NOT for nitpicking editing mistakes, like in Toy Story 3 how Mr. Potato head's eye patch is different eyes in different scenes.
It IS however to point out glaring inaccuracies/impossibilities in these so-called "professional writers" movies. Keep blowing holes, you are my soldiers.

I'm willing to believe in aliens before I'll believe that you can survive a nuclear blast by sitting in the fridge.
On another note, the aliens at the end of that movie get a lot of hate. They are no more ridiculous than the end of every other Indiana Jones movie.

According to Yahoo Answers the fridge scene is possible, however unlikely.
Quote
if you consider a huge luck to begin with, first of all, you clearly see the sticker on the frige that mentions a lead coating, to protect indy from radiations,
then by luck, his frige gets thrown away soon enough to not melt, and far enough to be safe from radiations, it's more insane luck but why not ?
then the fridge is an old 50's model that has a lock , you can quickly see it when indy closes it, and like it's said in the following scenes, that made fridges a deadly trap , fortunately indy's luck managed to break the lock when the fridge landed so he could get out , while not having taken the risk of getting ejected from the fridge earlier .. such thing could possibly happen, if you throw 50 fridges that far, you'll probably find a few of them open, why not :D
so last thing, no crushed bone, indy is a hero , it wouldn't happen that easily, probably a matter of ...luck :D sometimes we find victims of various crashes that end up with barely a few bruises and everybody wonders how could it be possible, i just saw on tv that old story about a guy who survived to a parachute opening failure by "landing" in bushes, that's hardly plausible, but it did happen anyway in the fridge scene, indy just adds several of such events after each other
it's like everything in movies, landing a plane that you never learned to pilot, stop a bomb clock at the last second... everything is technically possible but it's not likely to ever happen outside of a movie ;)

As someone who thinks South Park is not very good anyway, that episode (which Comedy Central more or less forced everyone to watch) really was stupid.
I agree that South Park is pretty played out, but personally I thought that episode was pretty funny. Throwing them into famous movie rape scenes was pretty funny, IMO.

You dumbass.
First off, he gave instructions to the stewardess not to bother his friend. He was "dead tired". She probably did notice something was up halfway through the flight, but what the hell are they going to to do, turn around?
Second, the alarm did go off, it was a silent alarm. How else do you think the police got there so quickly?

Sooooo, every single effing bad guy, EVER, is from the house of Slytherin. How about we just effing kick the house of Slyterin out of the effing school. That effing talking hat that picks which house you belong to should just say "you're effing out of here" instead of "Slyterin." Problem solved.
Slytherin is a noble wizardy house, which produces some of the finest wizards of all time, such as Draco Malfoy.

goonies prob #3- in the end where they ask data what the scariest part was and he references the octopus that was cut out of the movie. umm yeah, nobody knew what the hell data was talking about until ten years later when they aired the uncut version on network tv and then all the sudden you're like "octopus? wtf?"

Okay, in Ferris Bueller's day off, it it is supposed to be the spring semester of his senior year. And they live out side of chicago, right? But after Cameron freaks out over the mileage on the Ferrari, and he goes catatonic, they go swiming in ferris's pool. In March/April in Chicago? And the pool is already open and they can run around in swimsuits?
I don't think so Mr. Hughes. Busted!
They also go to a Cubs game. I'm thinking it's probably early May. Still slightly cool for a pool party, but still believable. NEXT!
And at the game the Cubs are tied with the Atlanta Braves 2-2 BUT THEY DIDN'T PLAY THE BRAVES AT HOME IN APRIL OR MAY OF THAT YEAR!!

Back to the future: So Marty returns to the present and his family is crazy rich and successful in the end all because of the events leading up to the enchantment under the sea dance. That part u get, but isn't that kind of profoundly tragic? I mean, Marty's family is so much different than what they were before Doc got them into that mess, that Marty, hardly would know them.
Also, the Libyans that crash their van in the twin pines parking lot probably would have survived that "wreck" they were in and then just shot Doc in the face.
Finally, even if those Libyans did die from the world's most tame fatal car crash, there would definitely be more. After all, this terror group got its hands on plutonium and operated in the United States suburbia. Certainly other cells would have gotten to them or found a way to get the plutonium for whatever doomsday device they were planing.

That would have been at por after graduation. Not a few weeks BEFORE graduation...as he states at some point in the movie.
Perhaps in the 80's, in Chicago, they went longer in to the Spring/Summer before school ended. Surely there are some other hints in the movie, so we can get to the bottom of this.

On the subject of Terminator 2, the semi truck chasing John Conner eventually hits an overpass, the fuel leaks, and a spark creates a massive explosion. But the problem is that diesel fuel would not ignite that way like gasoline would due to its much higher flash point. In fact, if you drop a match into a bucket of diesel, it will go out. You need a hot fire to ignite it.

That's not really a plot hole. That's just semantics. In the movie "Hackers", none of the computers would do any of the things they did in the movie, in real life.

It's been a while since I saw Inception, but -- even accepting the writer's logic, Leo had to die to get to limbo, but he didn't (right?). I think he supposedly got there by going to the next level of dreaming. (It would have made logical sense if one of the other characters had shot and killed Leo in the dream to get him to limbo.) So, unless the point of the movie is that Leo was just in another dream level, instead of limbo, that's one of the hundreds of plot holes in that movie.

Second of all, [spoiler]how does he remember the story about Sammy Jankis? If it was actually about him, then it happened after he lost his ability to make memories, so therefore he wouldn't be able to remember it.[/spoiler]

Kind of reminds me of all those Chik-Fil-A commercials where they have fracking dairy cattle (holsteins) trying to convince us to eat more chicken. Makes no sense because that breed is not raised for beef production at all. (Yes they usually end up as hamburger, but only after a long full life of providing milk). Just a company playing to the stereotypical uninformed American's idea of what cows look like. Would make way more sense to have angus steers pleading their case.

Because the minute that the old Biff gives young Biff the almanac, he should not be returning to the same future that he just left and which Doc and Marty were left in, not knowing Biff stole the car.

In Back to the Future II, after the old Biff steals the DeLorean, goes back and gives the young 1955 Biff the almanac, how the hell does he get back to 2010 without the world becoming the dark crime-ridden nightmare that it was when Doc and Marty then go back to 1985? Because the minute that the old Biff gives young Biff the almanac, he should not be returning to the same future that he just left and which Doc and Marty were left in, not knowing Biff stole the car. Let me know if I didn't explain that clearly enough. Kind of funny to look at all the things in that movie from 2010 2015 scenes that never got invented.
We still have four and a half years to invent flying cars and pizza hydration machines.
Oh yeah. My bad. But the plot hole has still been EXPOSED!

You can't feed them "after midnight" but when can you start feeding them? 6? 8? Like, 10am is technically "after midnight," so these fuckers never get to eat anything? Little bastard would be starving. Certainly wouldn't have any energy to sing all the time.
Also, not getting them wet seemed weird as well. Could Gizmo not drink any liquid? I mean if he did, technically his mouth and lips would get wet. That lil dude is going to get awfully dehydrated, especially if he lives in a temperate climate with all that fur.
BOOM! Blasted that move like the Maginot line.
And what about the time line? What if you were just across the Colorado border in another time zone (or in those funky western Kansas counties that think they are in the mountains)?

Well the simple explanation would be that the mogwai's body had acclimated to the pacific time zone, so if you were to travel to the mountain time zone with it, then you might be safe in feeding it up until 1:00 a.m. for a little while until its body got used to the new time zone. Case closed.

Watched The Rock last night. The scenes where Nick Cages character has to dive on the ground to save one of those vx gas balls from rolling off the edge of the light house, then he gets shot at by the sniper on the rooftop, he delicately puts the rest of the whole strand in a vent on the floor but takes the single, disconnected vx ball with him? And he puts it in the front pocket of his vest?! After getting the crap beat out of him and thrown through a window, he uses the intact, undamaged gas ball to gain the upper hand on that psychotic marine ( shoving it in his mouth and punching him in the face), the he runs to the end of the room, maybe 50 feet, and stabs his heart with atrophine? without his skin melting off??
Why take the deadly, fragile glass ball of death with him? Sure, take the navigation chip with you, Stan. Leave the vx ball with the rest of them, ok? And since when does atrophine make you invincible to corrosive, lab suit melting gas vapors? The lazy ass writers in this classic action movie almost ruin it for me. Almost.

Field of Dreams was on HBO the other night and I hate to be the guy to blow a hole in a great movie like this, but here goes.
Let's say for a baseball field with a little bit of foul ground you would need a square about 400 x 400 feet. That's 160000 square feet. There are 43560 sq ft/acre so thats approx 3.7 acres cut out of his corn field.
Here's where I need some of you farm humps to help me out since I don't know jack about farming. Interwebz research says there's approx 150 bushels of corn yielded per acre....saw a range of estimates but 150 was the number that came up the most. Current corn price in Iowa is $4.74 per bushel taking the average of the 6 regions listed on iowaagriculture.gov website. This looks to be higher than what Kansas is paying for corn :shakesfist:
3.7 acres x 150 bushels/per acre = 555 bushels. 555 bushels x $4.74 = $2630.70
So, the annual loss of $2630.70 of corn revenue was going to cause him to lose his entire farm? Was the cost of constructing the field that high?

RAY A left-handed pitcher.
(TO ANNIE) How bad is it?
ANNIE Well, given how much less acreage we have for corn, I'd say we'll probably .almost break even.
RAY Jesus.
ANNIE We've spent all our savings on that field.
KARIN (O.S.) Daddy..
RAY Just a minute, Karin.
(TO ANNIE) So what are you saying? We can't keep the field?
ANNIE
(SADLY) It makes it real hard to keep the farm, Ray. Ray closes his eyes.
Quote
ANNIE Ray, we're behind on the mortgage. That field ate up our savings. We could lose the farm.
Quote
ANNIE Ray.
(PAUSE) I asked the bank if we could miss a payment or two, and they told me they'd just sold the note on the farm to Mark and his partners. So they own the paper now, and he says if we don't sell to them, they'll foreclose. Ray, we don't have the money.
So it seems the major issue is that they blew their entire savings on the field, leaving them with nothing to dip into to make the mortgage payments. While the loss of revenue from the field acreage hurts, due to their tight financial situation, it's unlikely they would have seen that money in time to make the mortgage payments they apparently missed. The loss of revenue from the field acreage, BTW, would have been almost entirely profit (or cut their loss), as the corn was already planted there (thus, they'd already paid for the seed and whatever sprays/irrigation on that portion of the crop) and Ray turned it under to create the field. Whatever irrigation or sprays they would have applied until harvest, and harvest itself, likely would have been very little additional cost.

Well, according to http://www.extension.iastate.edu/agdm/crops/pdf/a2-11.pdf (http://www.extension.iastate.edu/agdm/crops/pdf/a2-11.pdf) corn was going for $2.14 a bushel in September 1989. I have no idea what that means when adjusted for inflation.
I was creating a plot hole based solely on lost corn revenue but on second thought the field itself probably cost a shitload to build, especially the lights. Those bleachers were totally pud and maybe $2 or $300 in lumber at the most.
Oh and TTHOTUC outed himself as one of the dorks who can't see the baseball players :lol:

Yeah, I remember thinking exactly that when I considered blowing a grand canyon in that flick. But, the costs to build the field could have been pretty high. Plus, maybe he had been totally flooded out the previous 10 years and needed that 2630.70 for flood insurance.

Good point. I guess that movie really is airtight. Most time travel movies just can't avoid the plot holes like this. Hollywood should take notes.

Keanu Reeves and that blond guy who no one knows said that line a million times in that movie. I think the intent was that he picked it up from them.

in game of thrones season 6, episode 4 when a couple of gallons of low volatility lamp oil gets spilled on the floor, instead of burning itself out in a puddle, the whole building goes up in about a minute. also a dozen strongish men huddle around and burn to death instead of breaking a hole in the thin wicker panel walls. also when a couple of non-dothrakis kill the guards outside the main temple the thousands of xenophobic dothrakis walking around outside don't give a eff. also instead of just killing her and going on with their lives, the xenophobic, misogynistic dothrakis decide to make some random foreign chick their ruler after she kills their warlords and burns down their temple, apparently because she doesn't burn, which isn't really that useful of a talent in a head of state.

Triangulation is necessary for satellites to work on the other side of the planet. Take out the satellites on one side of the planet, and they wouldn't work. Would have to wait until satellites from the other side of the planet made it around to your side of the planet for them to work. That is just Satellites 101...'Satellites Lite'-if you will.

Watched a non-animated version of Jungle Book, circa 1980's. Mowgli traps Shere Khan in a ring of fire that is made out of branches. The fire spreads around 20 foot diameter circle of branches in about 10 seconds. No way the fire spreads that fast. Then, Mowgli tells Shere Khan to leave the forest and Shere Khan, who had been completely freaked out by the fire and was a scaredicat (HA!) while being 'trapped' in the ring of fire, just jumps the fire and runs off. WTF???? If he was so scared of the fire, how does he just jump over it?

pretty sure, even in small towns, you can't just burn down a house with your dead mother in it and not be committing a crime.

The Matrix-
Why would the machines in the real world harvest humans for energy? It is insanely inefficient and irrational and basically can only be understood as an incredibly warped form of revenge. Besides the obvious, isn't there wind and lightning that could be used even if the skies are blacked out? What about nuclear or geothermal?

If they were dead set on the bioelectric angle, they could have gone with cows or something and saved all the trouble.
BUT it's possible that they were harnessing the combined mental efforts of their human batteries as a sort of massive neural computer to work through complex problems unsuited to their artificial robot intelligence.
Hole sealed.

in game of thrones season 6, episode 4 when a couple of gallons of low volatility lamp oil gets spilled on the floor, instead of burning itself out in a puddle, the whole building goes up in about a minute. also a dozen strongish men huddle around and burn to death instead of breaking a hole in the thin wicker panel walls. also when a couple of non-dothrakis kill the guards outside the main temple the thousands of xenophobic dothrakis walking around outside don't give a eff. also instead of just killing her and going on with their lives, the xenophobic, misogynistic dothrakis decide to make some random foreign chick their ruler after she kills their warlords and burns down their temple, apparently because she doesn't burn, which isn't really that useful of a talent in a head of state.
The temple thingy is like a sacred place that would be like really bad if they tore down the walls? It was special Dothraki oil which burns hotter and longer than regular oil? Khals are actually pussys? Bran warged into the Khals and made them afraid? Also, this is not a movie so it doesn't belong in this thread.

Clearly some planning went into the temple massacre. If Dany took the time to make sure the guards were killed and the door was barred, it's at least conceivable that she covered the floor with oil to spread the fire faster.

In the movie Jarhead, in the scene where they are going to finally get to shoot something...so allegedly 750 elite Iraqi military personnel are dug in to Airfield al Jaber in Kuwait. But, they apparently couldn't spare a man to keep an eye on the miles of flat desert surrounding the airfield. Suuuuuuuuure.

In the movie Mr & Mrs Smith, apparently two assassins unwittingly married each other. As if each organization wouldn't research the eff out of the future spouse of the other. Doesn't pass the sniff test to me. Also, Jane Smith is really Jewish? Pffft.

They were such good spies that when they were researched only their fake alias came up in the search.

C'mon, bush league research. Even to be a Marine or something I got a phone call from a guy to talk about my friend. Also, they apparently didn't even research the parents (her dad at the wedding was a paid actor).

Well I would think their respective spy organizations would be doing the research, not them personally.

In Happy Gilmore, when he tries to go to his happy place on Sunday of the tour championship and shooter kisses his girl and mom, he gets mad and starts hacking at his ball. He takes 5 swings, and hits the ball in the water on his 5th. Say that was his drive that landed there, he would have to drop 7 and be hitting 8. Even if he holes that out on a par 5, he drops 3 shots. But he cards a bogey somehow, to only drop one shot and keep hope alive in chasing shooter.
What an unrealistic movie and a crock of crap that scene is.

Hacksaw Ridge. The Japanese would simply cut the rope net that the army guys climb
That's a lot of rope tho and their base was underneath it, so they'd just shoot up at them.
They all carry swords. crap, just put grenades under it or dump some gas on it and light on fire.
It was literally the army's only way up.
