What is the worst excuse plot you've seen in a movie?

[Agarathium1066]

The reason leftists love vampires so much is because they want to become vampires. They want to be rich and live forever without any effort. They also hate Christianity, so it's no surprise they imagine themselves being 14 year old reddit Atheists in Vampire form.

Vampires in many settings are just power fantasies. Magic powers, super strength, usually super naturally beautiful or able to manipulate their way past their fuck-ugliness. Often have at least a few mind enslaved thralls who they can push around or snap the neck of if they irritate them.

That's a good part of why people love shit like Vampire the Masquerade.. also because they don't look at any of it past this surface power fantasy.

In many their weaknesses are greatly diminished or can be gotten around by cleverness, which everyone hopes they are. Better settings won't do that and will make them worse in many ways. Even if its simply because their fellow creatures of the night are all in a perpetual crabs-in-the-bucket battle to see who gets to stick their dusty dick in the potato salad.

Pick any ass pull from the ending of any Harry Potter movie, but the worst is the time turner. So a device that can turn back time, is so non legendary, apperently commonplace, that it is given to a student as a gift so she can make her classes on time.

It is key to the ending of the movie it's introduced in, and never mentioned again. The ability to turn back time, and re do things. Which would solve any problem instantly, and has no draw backs, is just something we are supposed to forget exists for the rest of the series.

Harry got so much plot armor that, were the plot armor be visible on him, he'd look like a space marine.

TAX: The "kamikaze by light speed" thing Admiral Holdo did. Guess they had to do something for her bitchiness to "pay off" in the movie, but that requires every ship lining up just right, and hitting light speed at just the right time.

Star Wars was essentially filmed so it can showcase ILM’s innovative effects.

The entire plot of Ocean’s Twelve is an excuse for that entire cast to vacation in Europe for months and have it be a tax write off.

You’re partially correct, but the time turner IS mentioned again really stupidly in a later book (I don’t remember which one), but they’re supposedly all confiscated by the Ministry of Magic, stored on a single creaky shelf in some closet, and the shelf breaks causing all the time turners to flip on themselves, creating a time bubble singularity “removing” all of them from the universe.

If this happened in a more explicitly childlike Dr. Seuss or Roald Dahl story, I could see it as charming, but in the greater Harry Potter universe, it’s dumb and JK Rowling had to clumsily write herself out of a corner.

Note to any creatives: time travel can be fun but it’s an extremely risky plot device that can destroy any piece of serious fiction if not handled well.

One of those recent planet of the Ape films was so retarded. The plot just unfolded. It was entertaining but retarded.

Humans attack apes. Apes split up to find a new home. Most of the apes get captured.
There's a virus making humans go mute. The small group of apes unknownly find and take along with them a human girl who is infected. They randomly meet a chimpanzee who knows where the apes are captured. Which is a fort with a hole in the wall and a tunnel under the cages allowing for an easy escape for the apes. Little girl wanders into the fort, drops a teddy bear the bad guy latter picks up, infecting him.
At the end humans show up to fight the other humans while the apes climb trees and an avalanche kills all the humans.
