Awful Movie Plot Holes Everyone Just Ignored maximilianboo: The biggest plot hole in Interstellar was the decision to travel to Miller's planet before going to Dr. Man or Edmunds planets. The main reason outlined by the crew to go to Millers planet first was because it was the closest to their current location after traveling through the worm hole, and that it would take months to travel to the other two planets. During this scene they do a fair job of explaining relativity and the time dilation the crew would experience on Millers planet due to its proximity to the black hole Gargantua. Specifically, one hour on Millers planet would be the equivalent of 7 years on Earth. But knowing this it seems obvious that traveling to Miller's planet first is a bad decision. Doyle said it would take months to reach Dr. Mans planet and even longer to reach Edmunds, and if neither of those two planets are viable they would have to spend even more time to travel back to Millers planet. These planets are outside the huge gravitational pull of Gargantua so they wouldn't experience the same time dilation as on Millers planet. Although they don't specifically say in the movie, lets estimate it would take the crew 4 months to reach Dr. Mans planet and another 2 months to reach Edmunds planet, so in total it would take the crew 1 year round trip to travel to Edmunds planet and back to Millers. Assuming the crew experiences no time dilation during this journey, exactly 1/7th of an hour (around 8 and a half minutes) would have passed on Miller planet. Knowing this it seems completely logical to travel to the other two planets first because it would be the equivalent of spending about 10 minutes on Millers planet. If they truly treated time as a resource they would have chosen to travel to the other two planets first. Another point to this plot hole is when on Millers planet after the tidal wave leaves them stranded, Brand explains that because of the time dilation, Miller would have landed only a couple of hours before they arrived and likely died minutes before they got there. But they should have realized this before they decided to go to Millers planet. I mean they explained relativity and time dilation right before deciding on going to Millers planet, don't you think they would have realized that relative to their time of over a decade since Miller left Earth, she would have only spent a few hours on the planet before they got there? I appreciate how Interstellar addresses concepts like relativity, time dilation, and quantum mechanics but it seems unrealistic that the scientists and engineers wouldn't be able to rationalize that going to Millers planet first is a waste of all their resources including fuel, oxygen, and time; especially given the fact that they addressed the time dilation effect on Millers planet. I love Interstellar and its one of my favorite movies, but this apparent plot hole and logical flaw leaves me scratching my head every time I watch the film.

I love the original Night of the Living Dead but it's always bugged me that while they fight over staying upstairs or hiding the basement nobody considers the obvious idea of barricading themselves on THE SECOND FLOOR. The zombies don't look like they can climb worth a shit and could easily be knocked off the side of the house if they did, they certainly wouldn't be able to break through boarded up windows while trying to hang on. Also the upstairs has only the one real entrance point which is the stairs, and those can be broken apart, have all the treads removed which will give them nothing to climb and the upstair's landing boarded over with boards and removed doors. Up there they still have a source of power, an ability to see 360 degrees around. unlike the basement the TV and radio would still have reception and could be brought up there and they'd have all the advantages over the zombies they wouldn't in the other two options.

I was surprised you didn't mention the parts in The Matrix where Cypher was able to insert himself into the matrix without help. Another big one was in I, Robot, when Sonny puts his arm through the force field to get the nanites. While his arm starts to melt, he mentions that he now understands why he was built with a stronger alloy, to withstand the force field. They conveniently cut the scene to avoid showing him removing the nanites since the force field would have destroyed them and the container they were in. The director even mentioned this in the commentary, saying he didn't have a way out and just hoped people wouldn't latch onto it.

Your all wrong on interstellar - however there is an issue with it - a mistake - now not a plot hole cause they admit their mistake - but my prob is - with time dilation which they know of - why don't they cop on - they think a scientist is sending back signals from the planet for months or a year when they know a year is only about 20 min on the planet - so they know the time difference - why bother going there at all - they know that to explore and properly assess the planet would take about 100 years earths time - no person should have gone - but also no person should have followed up based on data from someone who was only there for like ten min

Interstellar plot hole that no one talks about: the whole mission is only made possible by traveling through a wormhole that aliens created. Only it turns out that the wormhole was made by highly advanced humans in the future that survived the famine thanks to the main character's mathematical formula that he discovered by traveling through a black hole and sending it to his daughter in the past. To which they would advance in technology to the point of creating the wormhole that made the whole mission possible to begin with. No one talks about this. The worm hole black hole plot hole.

When Bane pulls off his Stock Market heist in The Dark Knight Rises, his gang leave the Stock Exchange on motorbikes.
Where did they get the motorbikes?
An even bigger plot hole, in The Silence of the Lambs, is when Hannibal is securely strapped to a trolley, prior to being taken to see the senator.
Chisholm is on the bed, with a pen and when Chisholm leaves, the pen is on the bed and Hannibal spots it.
He later uses the clip off the pen in his escape, but how does he get the pen?

In War of the Roses the lawyer (Danny Devito) narrates while we watch the couple fight. There are things that the lawyer could not have known (to tell us) if the couple were both killed. I knew that they wouldn't be killed because they had to live to tell the lawyer so the lawyer could tell us. When they fell to their death at the end of the movie I assumed they wouldn't die. It ruined the movie for me because in my mind they didn't die - and then the movie just ended abruptly.

The flyers in the vault in Ocean's 11 is a movie trope and, anyone who has seen enough movies, should be familiar with this.
Another example of this is The Thomas Crowne Affair (the remake with Pierce Brosnan. At the end, when he 'returns' the painting, he steals another painting, but it should be near to impossible to pull off. It is never explained how he does it which is as much because it isn't relevant to the movie's plot as it is just a fun little twist at the end of the film.

Interstellar had so many flaws it's not even funny. But by far the biggest one hasn't been mentioned here.
The hole plot is basically about going to a new solar system through a wormhole nearby Saturn, except that it isn't a solar system but a black hole system with planets.
Besides the fact, that the nearest planet orbiting the black hole would have just sucked instantly, where on earth came the daylight on the water and ice planet from, if there is no sun?

Here's what I'm wondering about on interstellar. They only discovered NASA because McConaughey is sending the coordinates to himself (his daughter) from the future. But without getting the coordinates he wouldn't been able to find NASA, go to space and send the coordinates to himself. So he is only able to send the coordinates BECAUSE he was sending the coordinates. Isn't that a paradoxon?
Sorry about my english, I bet I messed up
