"The magic of movie-making is that directors have the luxury of leaving the boring shit out. One minute Kate Winslet is whistling her heart out in the middle of a corpse-filled ocean; the next, she's a decade too old for a part on The Golden Girls. That's what they call editing, kids!
The thing is, that casual jump from A to B is also used as a writer's crutch to gloss over the stuff they didn't have the time to think through -- little things like "continuity," "logic" and "whether or not our protagonist just did some accidental murder.""

wow, I didn't notice any of these! Shows how much I've been paying attention while watching movies... The Matrix one in particular, I've seen that movie at least 10 times and never thought about that point.

I love reading these Cracked articles. I did notice the Dark Knight one, but that is probably because I've seen it about 6 times.

I didn't notice the Dark Knight one at the time, because I only catch glimpses of it whenever it's on, but now that I think on it I did have a facepalm moment!

this is a good list, I saw it earlier today. I tend to see plot holes in just about every movie I watch. Most of them do not bother me, but the bigger ones can get me upset. I hate paying to watch half ass done movies.
