Things that don't make sense in movies

The new Raiders ***Spoilers***











Just about the entire movie had scenes that didn't make sense.
At the beginning, Indy survives a nuclear blast by hiding in a refridgerator? He was within sight of the bomb as well - it wasn't as if he was 50 miles away.
Also, when Shia gets knocked off the truck in the jungle chase scene. He catches up with several cars going full speed by swinging on vines?
I won't even speak of the aliens....

you shut your dirty ***** mouth about The Thing.

And anyway, they were aliens. How do you know the aliens don't explode? Who cares? That movie is ******* creepy.
 
I don't know if I've mentioned this yet, but Fight Club. When Norton was kicking his own *** in the alley, what reasonable guy would say "hey can I get in on some of that?"
 
The fact that in Back to the Future that Dr Brown was intelligent enough to figure out the flux capacitor, but still thought that the Declaration of Independence was signed on July the 4th and that Christ was born on Dec 25th.
 
I will say Back to the Future II when he brings marty into the future to help his kids in the future.

1. Why wouldnt he just talk to future marty about it? I'm sure Marty would understand Doc coming from the past to help him.

2. What would be the point in fixing something in the future and then going back to the past where it's all going to happen again?
 
Deep Blue Sea: These Arnold/Einstein hybrid sharks can figure out that they need to flood Aquatica to escape but they can't differentiate an air tank from a human?

Also, they didn't really seem to eat the victims, they just killed them. Also, if I'm not mistaken, sharks, even ones that size, would be pretty full if they've eaten 3 or 4 humans in a few hours. Don't they only eat once every 3 months?
 
Austin Powers 2. You mean to tell me Austin was shagging a robot the whole time?

Blue Chips. Bobby Hurley was the PG on Indiana? Wasn't he out of eligibility?
 
Back to the future, Doc rips up the letter warning him of the attack on the night they originally tried the flux capacitor, but at the end of the movie he has a bullet proof vest and holds up the letter??? WTF
 
How about in any fight scene, when somebody throws a punch and it lands, they play that sound to make it seem like that punch was powerful. Screw all that. Why not go back to the old school like Batman. BAM! POP! ZOW! BOOM! KAPOW!
 
"Back to the future, Doc rips up the letter warning him of the attack on the night they originally tried the flux capacitor, but at the end of the movie he has a bullet proof vest and holds up the letter??? WTF"

tape dude. tape
 
And going back to the Back to the Future III question... if they did up the DeLorean that Doc had buried, then Marty has no way to get back to 1885, and then they have no reason to dig it up... boom, paradox. Or as Marty said, "one of those things that destroy the universe?"
 
The constant coincidence of lightning and thunder. Every lightning strike in every movie apparently is hitting right on top of the action.
 
Why is it that the bad guys in movies can't shoot. The good guys can shoot everybody, but yet hardly ever get hit themselves. The perfect example is the original Star Wars Trilogy. The Imperial Storm Troopers are supposed to be the baddest troops in the galaxy, but yet nobody can shoot Han Solo or Chewbacca. The only example of the bad guys actually shooting well was in Heat, but as many rounds as the put out they should have killed everyone.
 
Why is it that in every teen movie, the football player is the dick and the nerd always turns out to be the hero? I know plenty of nerds who were dicks.
 
Mission Impossible 3: they're transporting Phillip Seymour Hoffman back to the States on a private jet but then for no reason decide to land in the Florida Keys and drive the whole way to Virginia? If you're in a private jet, why not just fly to Virginia and not have to worry about bad guys landing in helicopters and ruining your day (in addition to a several thousand mile drive)?
 
Those sharks that ate 3 or 4 humans, that's easy-the victims were Asians, and the sharks got hungry an hour later.
What gets me every time is the martial artists that start defying gravity and flying about the room. How can this be even remotely plausible? I can suspend disbelief to see Uma Thurman chopping off the appendages of 90 highly trained assassians who just happen to wait their turn to attack her in small groups, but when they start leaping off the floor from the ground level to the second story, how does that make any sense?
 
I don't mind the Kill Bill scenes because it was basically Tarantino's tribute to old school kung fu movies.

According to Wiki, in MI3 that was the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and not the Keys.

But another part that bothered me -- when Ethan and the crew meet in Shanghai and come up with the fulcrum plan, I think they said that they had two hours to the deadline, or maybe even one. How the F were they able to obtain the pulley / fulcrum system, assemble it, mount on top of a building, and also obtain a baseball pitching machine and baseballs, all in China in the middle of the night, within a couple of hours with time to spare?

In Bull Durham, Crash goes to the mound after a strikeout and tells Nuke to hit the mascot. He does. Ball 1. He then tells the batter not to dig in. Next pitch, unreachable strike 1. But Crash throws down to 3rd as if it was a strikeout.

Closest thing to an Asian in the shark movie was Samuel L jackson.




Sports, Necessary roughness - that back up, come on, there were probably 20 guys better than him on campus alone. Also, no chance of them beating Texas in real life.
