Many of the greatest movies are best enjoyed with a healthy dollop of imagination. We’ll leave the laws of physics at the door to disappear into impossible adventures, and love every minute. But sometimes the biggest blockbusters around left us with more questions than answers, especially when a major plot hole seems to contradict the movie’s entire set-up. Here are our top 10 plot holes from cinematic classics.
10. Armageddon
While filming the massive box office hit Armageddon, star Ben Affleck already had his doubts about the plot.
He’s since recalled,“I asked [Michael Bay], ‘Wouldn’t it be easier to train astronauts to drill than to teach drillers how to be astronauts?’ To which he replied, ‘shut the f*** up, Ben’.”
9. Star Wars
Fans have long enjoyed finding plot holes in the Star Wars franchise, but the largest one is hiding in plain sight. Obi-Wan Kenobi is desperate to hide the young Luke Skywalker from Darth Vader – so why does he leave Skywalker, with a totally unaltered name, on Vader’s home planet of Tatooine?
8. The Karate Kid
The first Karate Kid movie constantly reminds us of karate tournament rules – and a major one is that you cannot kick an opponent in the face. Nevertheless, Daniel’s winning move against Johnny happens to be a wince-inducing crane kick to the head.
