Prize is 250k. Non taxable income.
Q: Right now I am 1/2 way through the movie 28 Weeks Later.
It is a good movie however there is a HUGE plot hole that really irks me. I like movies that do not defy logic but try to follow it.
So, what is the plot hole I am typing about?
First post to describe it, gets the money.
And BTW: If you have not seen the film and plan to--- >
DO NOT READ BELOW!!!!!!!!
Take your pic, lol:
1. How did Jim survive in a coma? Who left the keys under the door?
2. Why did that car have its alarm on?
3. Why didn't the group find a better car?
4. How did Jim have a baseball bat in England?
5. Why didn't they look for better weapons (at the police station {they have guns for emergencies I think})?
6. Why didn't they raid a supermarket earlier?
7. Why didn't the soldiers greet Jim and his friends at the blockade/change their radio message to indicate the location of their fortress?
8. Why didn't anyone try shortwave radio? Military radio? Why didn't anyone else in the world hear the message?
9. As the "new age" soldier said, how could the disease have been transmitted overseas? Are you going to let a lunatic on a plane? The Chunnel? Could the infected have infected animals?
10. Why were the soldiers so horny after less than a month? And is there "a future" in raping the women?
(note, LOL I just understood "these eggs are off," from the leader.)
11. Why on Earth would Jim let an infected person into the house where his buddies are?
I got that from google, but there were multiple things in that movie that confoosed me! Those included.

nope so far. I have yet to finish it, going out for the nite.
How did Alice stay alive when all the other Zombies died of starvation? Yeah, I dunno. Sounds like crap to me.

spent the most of my time in that movie theatre shaking my head... the stupid camera keeps shaking... gave me a ton of headaches...
I can't imagine that you were thrilled with the Army's inability to follow quarantine procedures when dealing with a survivor from the infected zone.

Thank you Thrak.
How the hell did the dad get to the wife with his "all access pass".
No guards guarding the survivor that they knew was infected?

I like plot holes, one of my favourites is in the classic "war of the worlds" both new and old. When we go on holidays we take shots but this advanced civilization was unaware of the risks????

They're exploring, like we did when we encountered malaria in various countries.
They'll be back. WotW 2!
God, 28 Weeks later sucked...

The better one is towards the end, they drove all that way in the car, went down the station and who happens to be there.... none other then the dad? Has he got a jetpack or something? That film was a load of crap.

Just as a side note. From the first one when they went to the supermarket why was all the fruit fresh? That really got on my nerves. Sorry for double post!
irradiated fruit, the guy even said something about it
"They'll be back. WotW 2!"
Hopefully it takes thousands more years... =/
