Show generally

Plot hole: For the past 5 series, Bulk and Skull have been in every episode. They've seen villains from other galaxies (Lord Zedd, Rita Repulsa, The Machine Empire, and Divatox) who have all sent monsters to Angel Grove and threatened Bulk and Skull on countless occasions. They've even been turned into monkeys and made invisible by space creatures. Why do they feel the need to spend Series 6 seeing if alien life exists? Surely 5 series worth of aliens is enough proof?

Suggested correction: Bulk and Skull are very dim witted and would like to find alien life so they can get famous, not realising everyone knows alien life exists.

Ssiscool

They are very dim-witted but surely not that dim-witted.

Suggested correction: They do not spend the series seeing if alien life exists. Their first scene in the season is them spotting Astronema's ship through a telescope and yelling UFO. They know. It's another one of their kooky schemes to get rich by being the first to discover these aliens and getting rich off it. (they were out looking for an undiscovered comet) They even get Professor Phenomena who's already been doing this before they were. It always felt like a play on Peter Parker getting rich off selling photos of Spiderman. But, dumber. I mean come on they tried catching a rabbit with carrots because they thought it was an alien. Stupid idea yes. Plot hole. No. It tracks with their characters.

DetectiveGadget85

Suggested correction: Think about it They have no reason to believe that they are aliens from space. They look human or could have been created by humans. It could have been a form of magic. Plus we never know what the news or the government is telling the public to normalize these situations. They don't actually know where they came from.

DetectiveGadget85

This is only a theory. Theories never solve mistakes.

No one in Angel Grove, believes them when they say they've seen aliens. It's been a running gag since Zeo. Go back and look at King For a Day Part II, after they got back from being kidnapped. Even the professor is viewed as a kook for believing in the existence of aliens.

Bete Noire - S1-E16

Corrected entry: When Kate pretends to be Abby, trying to trick Ari, he deduces that she's not upon seeing her gun in its holster, and doesn't pick up on the more blatantly obvious fact that her manner of dress doesn't match Ducky's description of Abby as a Goth.

Cubs Fan

Correction: Ari doesn't see Kate until he looks and sees the gun. So he can't tell just by her voice.

Jigsaw (2017)

Plot hole: Spoilers. It's revealed that the barn game takes place at an old farmhouse owned by the family of Jill Tuck - Jigsaw's widow. It's public knowledge that she was married to Jigsaw and that buildings they owned served as the headquarters of several past traps, so the barn should have been investigated at some point in the meantime. Ten years have passed. It makes no sense that the barn was never investigated and that the bodies of the barn victims were never discovered.

Suggested correction: The game was unknown to police even 10 years after John died. Now they've found all his other games and his multiple lairs. There would be no need to continue the search.

Ssiscool

Hogwash. They would have definitely searched known properties associated with Kramer and his family.

I agree. In the second Saw movie, the police discover that John Kramer is Jigsaw. With this knowledge, not only would the police be able to freeze his assets but, they would be able to look into his financial records and look into any properties he owns like houses, warehouses, etc. Since the cops now have a face and a name, it's a very big plot hole why they never searched his home or any other places. If they had, more traps would have been found and confiscated.

Left for Dead - S1-E10

Corrected entry: When Gibbs discovers the body in the hotel room he is on the phone with Kate. As Kate starts to describe the man Suzanne remembered, Gibbs interrupts and describes the dead man, including his tie. The camera then pans over to show the man lying face down. There is no way Gibbs could have seen his tie.

April Guthrie Farmer

Correction: DiNozzo is by the body indicating there was enough time for them to look at the body before the phonecall takes place.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: At the beginning the reporter says it has been a year since flight 180 where 40 students and 4 faculty members of the school were killed. However in the first film the female teacher asks for one adult to get back on the flight with the kids as they were unsupervised. This means there were only two teachers, not four, and only one ends up on the plane and dies in the crash.

Correction: Or if you look on the Corrections page for FD1, Mrs. Lewton probably meant that she didn't want two teachers to be alone with a bunch of students.

Correction: This is a simple error in reporting which happens.

Ssiscool

Correction: Ms Lewton says the students are "unsupervised" so yeah, must just be an error.

The Bad Fish Paradigm - S2-E1

Corrected entry: When Sheldon mentions to Leonard, Raj, and Howard that he is moving out, Raj asks Leonard "Did you pronounce the 't' in often?" This statement in context implies that it makes Sheldon angry when someone pronounces the 't' in often. However, Leonard and other characters do this multiple times throughout the series with Sheldon never commenting on it.

Ashish_Agrawal

Correction: Sheldon is also very particular about things in certain episodes. It's not out of character for certain ticks to disappear and reappear throughout.

Furious 7 (2015)

Corrected entry: After Dom and Brian crash the Prince's car through the wall, they come to a stop. Next shot shows the elevator door opening and Shaw walks out. How did Shaw know that the team was in Abu Dhabi and for that matter what building plus what floor they were on?

Correction: Shaw is an expert tracker and "a shadow" "capable of slipping in and out of places without being detected" all this just shows he is tracking the team and following them.

Furious 7 (2015)

Corrected entry: By the time Roman leaves the plane he is miles off course if not a couple of hundred miles off course, even with the guided GPS he still wouldn't make it to the landing site.

Correction: To suggest that he could be "a couple of hundred" miles off course is complete rubbish. Planes have an average cruising speed of around 550mph or 9.2 miles per minute. Given that Rome was at max, 4 minutes later out he could only be 36 miles off course. Now, as We never see Roman's chute open, we don't know when it was opened. If opened high enough it is entirely possible for the chute to guide him back on course.

Fast & Furious 8 (2017)

Continuity mistake: Near the end, the Russian chase vehicle fires a grenade at Hobbs' vehicle. The tube on the top far right is used and can be seen open. When that same vehicle goes for the second shot at Hobbs, the tube that was used before is unused now. When Dom hits the vehicle shortly after that there is a very close shot that shows that despite having just fired another round the array of tubes is again unused. (01:51:05 - 01:51:55)

Suggested correction: There are at least 2 vehicles with grenade tubes on them.

Ssiscool

That is correct. As you can see different ones being destroyed during the chase.

Fast & Furious 8 (2017)

Corrected entry: How did "Cipher" get in her car and drive off without replacing the fuel linkage and putting down the hood? (00:13:20)

Correction: You see her replace the fuel linkage and you don't see the car as it drives off so you can't say for definite if the hood was down.

Ssiscool

You can hear her jump in the car. But she did not close the hood.

Fast & Furious 8 (2017)

Corrected entry: There is no way that Dom could have organised the meeting with Shaw's mum or contact the guy from Cuba or his two friends from Brazil that were in Fast Five to shoot Shaw, or to organise Shaw and his brother to be kitted out with wing suits and board the plane. Nobody or Hobbs must have been in on it for it to work.

Correction: This entry corrects itself. It's clear that Dom has asked for help off somebody. However it is not shown who.

Fast & Furious 8 (2017)

Corrected entry: Timeline is wrong for the young lad to be Dom's son - he would be older.

Correction: Lana finds out she was pregnant just after Letty returns in Fast and Furious 6 as shows with the line "I found out just after you found out Letty was alive" We then have the events of Furious 7, which happened right after the events of 6. As shown with Owen Shaw in the hospital. We then know that the team retire after the events of 7 until Hobbs makes the call at the start of 8. There is no indication of how long has passed since the previous film. Meaning that baby Brian could easily be the age we see him at in this film.

Game of Thrones (2011)

The Pointy End - S1-E8

Corrected entry: After Khal Drogo is wounded by Mago in the shoulder/chest, Drogo tears out his esophagus, turns around and his large cut is gone. The cut appears again as he sits down.

Correction: The cut is there. Due to the distance of the shot and the size of the wound it is not visible but carefully looking shows the wound.

Breaking Bad (2008)

Over - S2-E10

Corrected entry: When Walt approaches the two dealers in the parking lot of the building supply store, the Jeep pickup parked beside the dealers' RV is much further away when it changes shots.

Correction: This is due to the angle of the cameras. Not a mistake.

Fawlty Towers (1975)

The Kipper and the Corpse (a.k.a. Death) - S2-E4

Corrected entry: In the scene where Sybil is talking on the phone in the lobby about the short elderly gentleman guest and has tall redhead bimbo, just before the old man and his bimbo come in you can see the bimbo come past the corner of the office wall early, then stop, then start walking again on cue.

Correction: She doesn't stop. She slows down, but doesn't stop.

Fawlty Towers (1975)

Correction: As they leave you can see their reflection in the glass cabinet just outside the lounge and they stop.

Fire and Terror - S1-E2

Corrected entry: When Fowler first meets the Chief Constable he tells him that he cannot remove his hat because he is a Sikh (the hat is really full of vomit), but towards the end of the episode he is not wearing his hat when talking to the Chief Constable, who doesn't seem surprised at this shift in attitude.

Correction: This is just the chief constable's ignorance of other religions. He has not questioned it on the basis he doesn't understand the Sikh religion.

Ssiscool

Correction: This is due to the multiple camera angles used in the scene. The straw doesn't change angle.

Fast Five (2011)

Corrected entry: Hobbs asks his agent to run facial recognition against known associates of Dom's, and Tej's and Roman's pics pop up. The problem is they are not known associates of Dom's, they both literally just met him.

brianjr0412

Correction: He asks for "known associates of Toretto and O'Connor" so Tej and Rome will show up.
