Every at times you may end up watching a movie solely to return up towards a large headscratcher. Maybe it utterly kills your suspension of disbelief or lurks round till later (see: fridge logic). Either means, it would not make any sense by any means.
And it is not simply dumb films – even a few of our favorite movies have complete WTF moments that we are going to by no means be capable to perceive.
1. The Lion King – The blame for Mufasa’s demise
The whole satisfaction is inflicted with terminal stupidity over the demise of Mufasa. Simba runs away for years as a result of Scar – who rigorously positioned him within the path of the stampeding wildebeest – mentioned that the king’s demise was all his son’s fault.
Even when Scar is revealed to be utterly evil, he nonetheless blames Simba for the demise, and no-one thinks to contradict him. It was clearly Scar’s fault, you foolish lions!
2. Titanic – Jack’s demise
We can argue about whether or not Jack may have survived on that bloody door with Rose till we’re blue within the face (with ice crystals forming in our hair). And which means it is unlikely that she may know for certain, both. So why, then, does she not even TRY to make room for her one real love earlier than surrendering him to the Atlantic’s icy embrace?
These ladies proved he did not have to die. Scientist Neil DeGrasse Tyson weighed in with one other level. James Cameron disagreed. Billy Zane, fairly correctly, had the ultimate phrase. Why are we nonetheless arguing about this?
3. Suicide Squad – Batman’s printouts
In Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Bruce Wayne comes into possession of Lex Luthor’s digital information on the long run members of the Justice League – Wonder Woman, the Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman.
Why then would he trouble to go on to make a proverbial cope with the satan with Amanda Waller for her information on those self same folks? Was his printer not working?
4. Suicide Squad once more – Saving Amanda Waller
Suicide Squad actually is the reward that retains giving. We may fill this web page with moments from DC’s film that make no sense, however we’re sticking to our favorite two.
The second is the second when the workforce – despatched on a mission by their boss Amanda Waller to extract a mysterious goal – arrive on the high of that skyscraper to find that concentrate on is… Amanda Waller, who has been sitting round doing nothing for some motive.
Then, fearing this wasn’t nonsensical sufficient, she shoots all her workers as a result of they ‘did not have the clearance’. She may have employed individuals who did have clearance and saved all these bullets and corpses.
5. Iron Man 3 – Iron Man retires
Iron Man’s entire factor is that he had inoperable shrapnel embedded round his coronary heart, and solely his arc reactor stored him alive. Except on the finish of the third movie, the place he simply calls in some surgeons to repair the entire thing. Why did not he do that ages in the past?
(Worse nonetheless, after ‘retiring’ on the finish of Iron Man 3, Tony Stark is instantly again within the go well with for Avengers: Age of Ultron, which isn’t defined in any significant means. It’s like the tip of the earlier movie made no sense or one thing.)
6. Avengers – Hulk is at all times offended
Bruce Banner turns into the Hulk when he will get offended, proper? That’s what he does. So if Mark Ruffalo’s model is, as he claims, “always angry”, then why is not he at all times the Hulk?
Does he have a brand new set off, like Taylor Swift data or folks texting whereas strolling?
7. Fight Club – Killing Tyler Durden
At the tip of the movie our narrator – spoiler alert – realises that the nefarious Tyler Durden is a figment of his creativeness. His resolution? To shoot himself by the cheek, which blows out the again of Tyler’s head. Why? We do not know.
Even following the iffy psychiatric logic of “kill the allegorical symbol, kill the underlying psychological problem”, why would not it simply blow out the facet of Tyler’s cheek?
8. Edward Scissorhands – Where does the ice come from?
At the climax of Tim Burton’s film, Edward flees the mob mentality of his erstwhile pals and neighbours, by no means to be seen once more….
