When Biff goes back in time to hand himself the almanac, how come he's able to travel back to the same future he left? Handing himself the almanac set time in a tangent. He should've traveled forward to the tangent's future.

In the Dark Knight Rises - Bruce Wayne's told that his joints are fucked after years of doing Batman shit, so he needs that electronic knee brace thing to prevent walking with a limp or cane, but then he manages to escape from the prison that Bane puts him in and take off without a hint of a limp - and one would assume that they wouldn't have left this electronic device on him. Oh and while we're at that prison scene - a punch to the back fixing a broken back - come on!!!

It was a good film. Maybe not as good as the one beofre it, but it was still pretty damn good

Guys, ambiguous endings are not plot holes.

In Major League 2 they win the division in the final game against the White Sox and immediately advance to the World Series.

This is divisional era baseball, so they should have advanced to the LCS.

Not sure this qualifies as a plot hole.

Although I hate baseball, I love Major League 2.

Movies are meant to make you feel things, to tell you a story, to provide you with an experience. Most "plot holes" exist because doing it the other way would be like watching paint dry or would ruin the overall experience. If you want something with no plot holes, read a math textbook.

Has anyone mentioned Godzilla couldnt actually stand up and that our gravity would be far too much for such a creature to be able to stand upright on this planet?
