Even the best and most beloved films sometimes suffer from gaping plot holes. And although most of them can still be forgiven, there are also some that simply cannot be overlooked. Have you noticed them before? 
1. Armageddon (1998) 
According to the plot of “Armageddon,” a team of oil drillers is trained by NASA for a long time so that they can fly into space and save the world. However, many viewers noted that it would be much faster, cheaper and easier to train astronauts in drilling than to turn ordinary drillers into astronauts. In the commentary track for the DVD version of the film, Ben Affleck admitted that during filming he pointed out this flaw to director Michael Bay, but he advised him to shut up.
2. Toy Story (1995) 
The entire cartoon is based on the fact that Buzz Lightyear does not know that he is a toy, and believes that he is a real astronaut. But then why does he, along with the rest of the toys, freeze whenever Andy or other people enter the room?
3. Star Wars (Episodes III and IV) 
In the episode "Revenge of the Sith", Obi-Wan promises to protect little Luke from Darth Vader. But what does he do in the next film, A New Hope? Sends Luke to Tatooine, Darth Vader's home planet, and doesn't even think about changing his last name. Nice job, Obi-Wan! He definitely won’t look there.
4.007: Skyfall Coordinates (2012) 
Every Bond film strives to prove to us that Q is an unrivaled genius. Meanwhile, in Skyfall, Q directly connects villain Raoul Silva's computer to the MI6 network. No cybersecurity specialist would ever connect a suspicious computer to a major network, and it's hard to believe that the genius Q would make such a basic mistake.
5. Superman films 
On our entire Earth, nothing can harm Superman, only kryptonite. But how does he shave then? If not a hair can fall from his head, then how does he cut his hair? Some fans have speculated that the superhero has a stash of kryptonite-bladed razors, but that's frankly not the safest option for him.
6. Movies about Captain America 
Captain America's shield and its ability to absorb energy raises many questions among fans. For example: If the shield is made of vibranium, why does it bounce off surfaces when it is thrown around the room in Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)? In a Screenrant article devoted entirely to the shield and its properties, the authors suggest that "the vibranium-steel alloy that Cap's shield is made of allows him to bounce and jump from place to place as long as the impact lands on his side." Yes of course.
Other fans have pointed out that in some of the fight scenes in Captain America: The First Avenger (2009), the superhero is repeatedly staggered by blows from ordinary people, but he does not react to the blows of Thor's hammer or Iron Man's volleys.
7. Signs (2002) 
In the film "Signs", hostile aliens descend on Earth and have one weakness - water. Some fans were confused by the fact that at the beginning of the film, these same aliens are running through a field covered with morning dew, and the water has no effect on them. Not to mention, why would these aliens even take over a planet that is 75% water and inhabited by creatures that are 60% water? And they haven’t been caught in the rain yet.
8. The Little Mermaid (1989) 
Another blunder from Disney. Yes, Ariel could not tell Prince Eric that it was she who saved his life, because the witch Ursula took her voice away. But why didn't she just text him this? We know for sure that Ariel can write because we saw her sign the contract with Ursula with our own eyes.
9. The Mummy (1999) 
When Imhotep comes back to life in The Mummy (1999), he takes various body parts from the Americans who ransacked his grave. At the same time, he gets his eyes from a guy with glasses. It turns out that Imhotep had to wear glasses for the rest of the film, but, apparently, the creators decided that an ancient Egyptian mummy in glasses would not scare anyone.
