The Plot Holes In These Movies Might Make You Completely Rethink Everything You Thought You Knew

Even the most thoroughly thought out stories have massive plot holes. A lot depends on how hard you would like to think about things. In turn, how invested you really are into the movie.

Buzzfeed asked their community what particular plot holes left them all with their heads in their hands, and throwing popcorn at the screens. So feast your eyes on this epic list. Will you agree? Possibly. To all of them? Very doubtful.

But I bet there's a whole lot of movie watching in your future. What? You're in quarantine, remember? Jeesh! So check these out. Tell us what you think!

1. Up

The house didn’t actually start to float away until the balloons were outside the house.

Why is that?

Shouldn’t the house of started to float away when the balloons were still inside? Am I right?!

2. All Star Wars Movies

All the different planets have completely different levels of gravity, plus they also have different atmospheres, but everyone is still running around without wearing a space suit.

WHAT!
