Some stuff to consider next time you're watching a big Hollywood blockbuster. These aren't movie facts per-say, but they do make you think that maybe, just maybe movie logic and reality are a bridge too far.

“In Liar, Liar, Jennifer Tilly’s character gets her way in the divorce despite cheating because she lied about her age, therefore making the prenup null and void. However, this would also nullify the entire marriage, entitling her to nothing.” -
2.
“Why would you need the Suicide Squad to save Midway City from Enchantress? As far as you know it won’t require any skills that the military doesn’t have. If it was to cover up government involvement then congratulations, you’ve now got a bunch of criminals who aren’t loyal to you, resent you, and are more likely to try and blackmail or defame you. They’re loose ends. You’ll have to execute them anyway and lose the asset you built.” -
3.
“In Season 2 of Dexter, Rita asks Dexter how he knew how much heroin to give her ex-husband and deducts deduces that Dexter himself is a heroin user. Dexter was top of his class in med school and is a forensics guy. I can’t imagine it would be hard for a guy like that to figure it out.” -
4.
“In Friends Joey & Chandler watch die hard & refer to it as their favorite movie. In later seasons Rachel dates Paul who is played by Bruce Willis. Despite it being their favorite movie they never thought of mentioning that Paul looked like Bruce Willis.” -
5.
“Thanos destroying the stones in Endgame makes ZERO sense, because his logic was that “he did it so that his 50/50 snap can’t be undone by anyone”, but the universe’s population will normalize to the previous amount in just a century or so (which is NOTHING to thanos, considering he is over 1500 years old). Fun fact: Earth’s population in 1920 was 1.9bil. Today (100 years later), it’s over 7bil. So snapping earth’s population to 50% would normalize back to over 7bil in less than 50years.” -
6.
“In Now You See Me 2, why and how did the FBI have any jurisdiction in London. Wouldn’t that be more of an Interpol thing? But character continuity right?” -
7.
“Madagascar. They give the lion hell for eating animals. In the end, they give him sashimi as a substitute. What, in a world of talking animals, fish aren’t considered animals too?” -
8.
“Superman flying upwards at incredible speed to catch a person in free fall would probably cause more damage to the falling person than if they hit the concrete due to the sudden change in velocity” -
9.
“Terminator 1. The f**king Terminator grabs Sarah Conner by the shirt, but lets go of it? Wtf was that? It’s a f**king robot. As soon as it grabbed Sarah Conner’s shirt a f**king ‘Don’t let go ever’ program should have started.” -
10.
“The parents deciding to each take one twin to raise on different continents and never talk to each other again.” -
11.
“C3PO, human cyborg relations, is fluent in over 8 million forms of communication and, in fact, was built on Tatooine, yet doesn’t speak Jawa?” -
12.
“Every Christmas movie where no one believes in Santa but then it turns out Santa does exist. Like, who did they think was putting presents under the Christmas tree? If Santa is real then it wasn’t them.” -
13.
“Shrek 2- How does a donkey f**k a dragon?” -
14.
“If Buzz-lightyear thinks he’s real and not a toy, then why is he motionless and pretending to not be alive, like all the other toys, when Andy plays with him? Wouldn’t he think Andy is some sort of giant alien monster? Woody might have explained to him they need to remain still or something, but we never get an explanation.” -
15.
“Mission Impossible 2. The guy is trying to create a cure to all flus. To do this he has to invent super-duper flu. He does and he invents a cure. Then they destroy the cure even though it cures all flus? WTF?” -
16.
“In black panther, when he falls into the water, he gets pulled out by a fisherman from the northern tribe, later on the movie, the leader of the tribe says that they are all vegetarians. They are also completely isolated and don’t trade. Why do they have a fisherman?” -
17.
“There’s one scene in Spiderman 3 that’s never made any sense to me. Peter takes a small sample of the symbiote to one of his college professors so he can get a better idea of what it is. The professor looks at it under a microscope and says “It’s definitely alien. I wouldn’t let any of this stuff touch you.”. That’s it? Proof of alien life bright to you by one of your students and your only takeaway is “Don’t touch it”? That’s f**king insane.” -

“Ocean’s 11. During the blackout scene, there is mad chaos in the casino. People stealing chips and just mass hysteria. Then the team goes to steal the money during the blackout. Afterwards, the lights are back on, and as they walk out of the casino, people in the background act like nothing has happened. No hysteria, just a normal casino with people gambling in a fun and jovial manner.” -

“If Mulan got sent home for underperforming, there’s no way her Father would have been accepted for training in his condition. He would have been sent home with Honor intact.”
