What's the biggest plot hole in real life?
Since the latest season hasn't concluded yet, let's only look at plot holes from 1990 and before.
You're viewing a single thread.
The details around the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand really jump the shark. Must've been a drug-fueled writing session on that one
When that one aired I assumed they were going to genre-shift into dark comedy or slapstick, but they... really, really didn't.
You haven't seen Blackadder? I thought the whole plot was a set up to the series.
one drunk dude with a pistol changing the course of the whole world?
Don't ignore the whole other stuff with the failed bombing etc.
From wikipedia:
At 10:10 am,[75] Franz Ferdinand's car approached and Čabrinović threw his bomb. The bomb bounced off the folded back convertible cover into the street.[76] The bomb's timed detonator caused it to explode under the next car, putting that car out of action, leaving a 1-foot-diameter (0.30 m), 6.5-inch-deep (170 mm) crater,[75] and wounding 16–20 people.[77]
Čabrinović swallowed his cyanide pill and jumped into the Miljacka river. Čabrinović's suicide attempt failed, as the old cyanide only induced vomiting, and the Miljacka was only 13 cm deep due to the hot, dry summer.[78] Police dragged Čabrinović out of the river, and he was severely beaten by the crowd before being taken into custody.
Just the mental image of him chucking himself into a river after the failed bombing and then also failing his suicide on two fronts...
Lmfaooo
This is why you buy the 2nd cheapest cyanide pills, not the cheapest.
Not at all. Things were a powder keg. If it wouldn't have blown at that point, then shortly thereafter.
"The War to End All Wars" was a good season finale, but then just 20 years later they made a sequel with bigger effects budget and openly evil villains. Lazy writing. And the way things have been written towards WWIII but then backing off is a long season tease.
