12 Giant Plot-Holes You Didn't Notice In 2014's Biggest Movies

6. The Problem With The Plan Of Attack - Guardians Of The Galaxy

James Gunn's superhero sci-fi extravaganza was pretty close to being the perfect adaptation of the material and the film-makers did remarkably well not to leave too many unanswered questions or annoying paradoxes, to the extent that most of the complaints levelled at the film are just silly. Of course Star-Lord built a tape deck into the Milano. There are some minor quibbles though that actually do hold weight: like the all powerful orb being almost entirely unguarded with supposedly the most powerful being in the galaxy after it (and seemingly incapable of just finding it himself), or Drax choosing to only take things literally when it serves the plot. And then there's the issue of the Guardians' plan to take down Ronan, which comes with something of a flaw. The whole plan hinges on Gamora opening a door for the other Guardians to shoot Ronan with their BFG, which holds them up almost fatally. Frustratingly, Gamora proves twice that the door doesn't actually need to be so much of an issue: first after Drax shoots Nebula, she reforms to stop Gamora from pressing the button to open the door, meaning the switch was pretty much within Drax's reach too, so there was no need to send Gamora off to open the door at all. And then, when she opens the door, she herself just shoots a hole in the ceiling and jumps through it to where the team are, circumventing the oh-so important door altogether.
