This Movie Has the BIGGEST PLOT HOLE EVER.


Seriously, I don't know how I never thought of it before. But this movie is the BIGGEST F---ING PLOT HOLE EVER! Like Seriously... I dont know how people didn't complain, or notice, or say ANYTHING about this before.

I mean its still a great movie and a hilarious movie, most of it. Atleast I found it really funny, but it has a MASSIVE PLOT HOLE in it. It needed SOMETHING like it , for Ron to hit rockbottom, but seriously...

When Ron doesn't make it to the newstation and they put veronica on instead, he is running the whole way there and he misses it and is late and its already done.
He came from the bridge where Baxter was punted off, that he DROVE to.. and got out of his CAR to talk to the guy.
So he ABANDONDED his car, and RAN instead of just DRIVING to the newstation?

Are the directors saying he was so emotionally over-whelmed by Baxter and the news of Veronica he completely forgot he had a car, and ran to the newstation?
I dont think so. If he was RUNNING and pushing people out of the way, he was obviously trying to get there as fast as he could. and his CAR.... need i say more really.

He said he was in a glass case of emotion, so it was meant to be comedic when they had him run all the way to the news station instead. Nuff said.

But that wouldn't have been funny

Maybe Jack Black stole his car since his motorcycle was messed up ha

In a movie where the main couple ride cartoon unicorns and boink on a rainbow, I can see where this incongruous point would smack you across the head as "the biggest plot hole ever"

No, he came from the phone booth, not the bridge.

I suspect there was a scene removed that might have explained why he ended up walking.

Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.

He was emotional and went to a phone booth, leaving his car behind.
Who knows how far away he was from his car, maybe it made more sense to run to the station that to run back to the car then drive through traffic to get to the station.
