Major plot hole...why would he return to his apartment?


After he escapes from the hospital, why would he go back to his apartment on the same day? And he does it so casually, walking and talking with her, and he even has time for coffee? Wouldn't he know that would be the first place his pursuers would go to find him? And then after that big adventure in his apartment (I'm trying to limit spoilers), they just go over to her place! Unlikely!

Because this is a movie made by morons for morons.




I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

lol Not only is jgroub smarter than Richard Donner and Brian Helgeland, but he's SO much smarter than them, that he makes them look like complete and total idiots! Regardless of how impressive some of their films are, jgroub could easily do 5 times better, of course!

My IQ is 189. What's yours?

Anybody who says "My IQ is 189" is a typical IMDb idiot with no IQ at all. People with high IQs don't need to brag.

reply

Right, people with IQs don't need to brag. People who lie about their IQs need to brag, though.

And you were moron enough to fall for it. What does that make you?

This is the equivalent of I'm rubber you're glue... Though with a normal distribution centered around 100 with a standard deviation of 15, would put it at 5.933 standard deviations from the norm. That would put you beyond the 99.999999% realm, while not impossible at all, very unlikely.

Gee......Mr. "Genius" please tell us what YOU think are good movies?

reply

Sure. Basically anything by Scorcese, most of Tarantino's stuff. Giving it a quick glance, I agree with most of the top 50 out of IMDb's top 250, with some exceptions, of course:

Thank you so much for asking.

Please learn the proper definition of plot hole.





'Then' and 'than' are different words - stop confusing them.

I think I remember they said a few scenes before that they didn't know where he lived (yet)... (but I might be wrong). So he might have thought he was a step forward and had some time before they found him, and he wanted to show his files to Alice.

The fact that they were to her appartment... well ok that's stupid :D

Exactly.

Jerry being paranoid had kept his address a secret......as stated by the character.

Two pointed answer:

1) Because it's a pretty good 'bluff' (given the logic of your question)
2) To destroy all the other evidence/theories he had on record (with his Bobby traps)
