10 More Infamous Movie Plot-Holes (Solved By Fans)
3. How Are Newspapers Still Being Printed? - A Quiet Place
The Plot Hole:
Given that the monsters in A Quiet Place are attracted to sound, how exactly were major national newspapers able to print newspapers detailing this and also ship them out to newsstands without interruption?
Considering that a modern printing press can easily exceed 70 decibels, that'd make the entire operation - and anyone working on it - easy pickings for the alien creatures.
The Solution:
The answer which some fans have settled on is simply that these newspaper editions were printed in areas of the United States which hadn't yet been affected by the alien invasion en masse.
As for distribution? That's probably a little easier to figure out - airdrops wouldn't even be entirely out of the equation for the earlier stages of the invasion, for one.
Basically, with the global news media's strong culture of reporting the news no matter what, they would've kept printing papers for as long as they could without monsters descending upon the factories.
