Mystique infiltrates the nasion, sabotages CVerebro, and then leaves.
Yet Professor X, who can detect mutants anywgere, doesn't realize she's in the house.

...he does that with Cerebro does he not ?
The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

Cerebro just enhances his abilities to be able to project over greater distances. I think the explanation would be that being psychic isn't the same as 'feeling a disturbance in the force'. If he wasn't looking for her and was in a different place than she was it isn't out of the realm of possibility that she slipped in under the radar. Now if they had run into each other it would seem odd that his spidey-sense wouldn't notice something was off. Of course they might have, been awhile since I have seen the film.
Amidst the mists and coldest frosts he thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees the ghosts.
From the comics anyway he was always very careful not to use his telepathy without cause and not to pry into any and everyone's minds as he met them ..?
Anyway.. so.. in this film this guy turns up to connect the cable, and the lady of the house has just got out of the shower, and then her friend Cindy comes round to use the hot tub... doesn't connect the cable up at all ! He'd so get fired.

This seems to happen frequently in these films,I mean..three girls in the house and no one "pays" the pizza delivery guy,c'mon.
Still,they are some of the finest love stories ever to grace the screen.
I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
Why does the woman paint warpaint on her helicopter?!
Not only because it looks UTTERLY RIDICULOUS but because she would want to sneak around easier and not be such an obvious target.
And it looks fething RIDICULOUS
WHY!?!!
We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.
Also, their neurological technology can transfer your mind into an alien's body, but repairing a severed spinal cord is difficult?
Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.
And why the feth were the elephant things BULLETPROOF?
And not just regular bullets, big feth off massive robot cannon bullets.
And why if they wanted to clear all the trees, would they send in a ground force without nuking the gak out of the area first with air strikes?!

Because old Voldey hated muggles, and he hates things created by muggles, they probally dont know what a gun is, and surely a shield charm would stop a bullet. Voldey would have humiliated himself by killing Harry like that, his followers would be like "WTF MAN, THAT WAS gakky".

too great a chance that the nazgul on fell beasts, which would certainly rise up to challenge them, would capture the ring.
Then drop them off a couple of miles away from 'the eye'. essentially cutting the last half of the first book the second book and a good chunk of the third (journey wise) out completely.

Were there 4, or 6 holes in this plot?
Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

Yes. That one. ^^^^^^^^^^
You know, the book explains this one wonderfully.
Also why was there a "Sauron tower eye" in the movie when he had his physical body back?
Then again, as Kyoto-sama knows, that Tolkien guy got so much wrong when writing that adaptation.

Hallowed is the All Pie The Before Times: A Place That Celebrates The World That Was
Another very common plot hole, why your average minion/soldier/worker in the disaster movie helps the fat cat politicians to survive the end of the world while he/she is doomed to die?
2012, if I was one of the workers welding the arks I would go on strike unless my family was part of the lucky 400,000 (same if I was a crew member) they can threaten to shoot me if the want but when the alternative is being dead anyway it´s kind of hard to motivate people with threats.

Jenkins: You don't have jurisdiction here!
Smith Jamison: We aren't here, which means when we open up on you and shred your bodies with automatic fire then this will never have happened.
About the Clans: "Those brief outbursts of sense can't hold back the wave of sibko bred, over hormoned sociopaths that they crank out though."
I always thought that was meant to imply that there was more to the relationship than the demand for energy; something like enslavement for the sake of enslavement as revenge for the history man's domination over machine.
