Plot hole: The huge explosion that rips through Tara's house isn't very likely. She only left the stove on for a short while, and if there was really a massive concentration of gas as depicted by the explosion, the Agent who fired the shot that triggered it should have collapsed from inhaling so much gas.
Paul (2011)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Greg Mottola
Starring: Sigourney Weaver, Jason Bateman, Seth Rogen, Simon Pegg, Kristen Wiig, Jeffrey Tambor, Nick Frost, Mia Stallard
Continuity mistake: When the bird first hits the RV, a blood stain is visible on the windshield. But on the exterior shot of the RV as it stops, the blood has disappeared. (00:26:50)
Ruth Buggs: Well ain't that a bag of tits.
Trivia: Stick around after the movie has finished, at least 4 minutes of extra footage is shown.
Question: At the end, Zoil refers to Paul as 'Short Round.' I know that Short Round was the nickname of the kid in the movie, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. But why did Joil refer to Paul as the kid's nickname?

Chosen answer: The movie "Paul" was riddled with inside jokes and homages to classic science fiction and adventure movies and tv shows, so it would not be surprising there would be a reference from an Indiana Jones movie. Also, Paul is, indeed, "short" with a "round" head.
