Those girls are way too young to have their own phones.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the whole Arthur big fancy event subplot&#8230;the entire movie takes place within two weeks. Iris finds a letter about &#8216;An Evening with Arthur Abbott&#8217; and says, &#8216;They want to do this soon.&#8217; Not &#8216;hey, this thing is scheduled for next week.&#8217; The way she says it implies it has not yet been scheduled. So what, Iris calls them to say he\u2019ll do it and then the organizers find a space, send out invitations (during Christmas, remember) and get the whole thing up and running for a PACKED HOUSE in like five days? I love that movie, but damn, it\u2019s dumb.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/AskReddit\/comments\/g5u40n\/what_simple_plot_hole_ruined_a_whole_movie_for_you\/fo7t9x3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">sonickay<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"10.
