We've all heard them, usually from the insufferably smug, and we all hate them. Plot holes that are not plot holes. What are your least favorite? Here's mine,
Lord Of The Rings: There's two that annoy me to no end and make me want to slap the person that belches them out, the first being the most obvious, "Why didn't they just fly the ring to Mordor?" OK asshole you can't figure this out, fine! THE EYE OF SAURON WOULD SEE THEM! You know the giant fucking eye that sees all of Mordor and is constantly looking for the ring. He would see those eagles from miles and miles away. That is if his spies, which by the way can and do consist of men, birds, and trees, don't see them first. In which case he would send all nine of the Nazgul after them on their dragons (I know they're not called dragons, but wurms or something like that, but that's neither here nor there). All he has to do is kill the eagle with Frodo on it, or knock Frodo or the ring off the eagle and BOOM the ring is his, and all is lost, fuck you game over.
#2. In the mines of Moria: This one is less of a plot hole and is usually more of a dig at Gandalf. It usually goes something like "Gandalf sucks as a wizard, he was traveling through a mine he knew had orcs in it and he stopped to read? What a dumbass, hur, hur, hur." To which I respond, you did hear him when he said that it was going to take FOUR DAYS to get through the mines, didn't you? Because he says it's going to take four fucking days to get through the Mines of Moria... Four days, at least. When he picked up the book they were nearing the exit. It was maybe quarter to half a days journey to the exit, so that means that they had been traversing through a grey, samey, god forsaken mine for several days up to that point. Let's see you do that. Let's see you go through an underground Kansas for four days, and see if you don't want to take a break here and there due to mental exhaustion, fuck physical exhaustion which I'm sure they had, let's just go with the mental exhaustion. Hell by day two I can guarantee you that you'd be losing your damn mind and gnawing at the rocks in a desperate attempt to escape, so I think that he can be excused for taking a breather to read a book that may have some pertinent information. To be honest it could be fucking twilight and I wouldn't blame the guy for stopping.
Memento: This one I find somewhat excusable seeing as most people don't know shit about neurology, but it still not a plot hole. "If Leonard has Anterograde Amnesia how does he remember that he has Anterograde Amnesia?" People with Anterograde Amnesia know that they have amnesia. I don't how it works, but they know. To be fair this one is excusable so I won't give anyone shit for this, but the other two? Yeah fuck those people.
Sorry if I ninja'd the ones you wanted to rant about, but feel free to add what you wish if you feel like I missed something, But now I want to hear your least favorite plot holes that aren't plot holes.
EDIT: The reason people with Anterograde Amnesia know that they have Amnesia is due to reasoning or repetition making the knowledge instinctual. Thank you to everyone who gave me information on the Anterograde Amnesia bit.
