Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.
It's never explained how it is that Cuervo can withstand a direct shot to the chest from Map to the Stars Eddy. He's not wearing a flak vest under his tanktop, and we're never given any reason to believe he has superhuman powers. For that matter, mere seconds after receiving a brutal boot to the head from Snake, how is he able to stand and fire a SAM anyway? [Ask any policeman for stories about what people are capable of doing after taking apparently lethal gunshots.]
In the future it is apparently possible to travel from Griffith Park to central Orange County (around 50 miles) via hang-glider in only 10 or 20 minutes, according to Snake's countdown timer. [This mistake corrects itself. They are on hang-gliders. Flying. This makes the trip significantly shorter. So this mistake is not valid at all.]
How did they keep that '59 Caddy so cherry? Everything on the whole island is scavenged, burned out, broken, beat up and whatever but this '59 Caddy looks like it has never left the showroom. [Actully, the Caddy is owned by Quervo Jones, as Eddie makes mention of after shooting Snake. Snake mentions early in the film that Quervo has "more heat around him than the President." It's reasonable that he takes good care of his car.]
Another submission here reveals that Snake's final attack via hand-glider required traveling a distance of some 50 miles, by actual L.A. geography. Additionally, this distance is covered in no more than 10 or 20 minutes according to Snake's countdown timer. [Combined with relevant entry].
