How did Michael get into Annie’s car if it was locked?! How was it locked, then unlocked later in the sequence?! Halloween (1978)
In the film Annie attempts to get in her car. It was locked. She goes and gets the keys from inside the house, and when she goes back she opens the car door without unlocking it. Michael is in the back seat and Annie meets her demise. So that begs the question did Michael unlock the car? If so how? Is it just a simple continuity problem? Then why include the shot of her opening the unlocked car door?

Plothole The truth behind the most famous plot hole in Ocean’s Eleven (according to screenwriter Ted Griffin)
Hi! I host a video series called Plot Hole or Not Hole, in which I interview storytellers about perceived plot holes in their own work. The goal is to go straight to the source, find out whether the person who scripted the plot thinks the alleged hole actually qualifies as one, and see how they explain it. Naturally, I've spent a lot of time on this subreddit, and I've seen many mentions of potential plot holes in 2001's Ocean's Eleven, which is turning 25 this year and getting a prequel and another sequel. So I thought some folks here might enjoy my chat with screenwriter Ted Griffin about the movie's infamous "duffel bags filled with flyers" plot twist, as well as some other commonly cited supposed plot holes in Ocean's Eleven and other famous movies. I'd be happy to hear your thoughts. Or suggestions for films, shows, or other media to cover next!
