How is that a hole in the plot? It is just an inaccuracy.

Die Hard.

The 'DC' Phonebooth that Bruce Willis is supposedly in says 'Pacific Bell' on it.

Again not a plot hole. just a blopper or continuity error, it has no bearing on the plot.

Seems like a pretty big historical inaccuracy to me since the last time I read a history book California hadn't annexed Washington DC.

3 military guys, on an unknown planet, so what do they do? get naked and go swimming. Ever heard of military discipline? Maybe going one at a time, leaving weapons and clothes unguarded?

Then there is the little matter of how he speaks the same language they do. Hmmmm...... think that might have been a huge clue to taylor?

Or the Statue of Liberty not falling apart by then It IS made of metal.

Electricity but no cars, plastics but housing is literally in the stone ages and everyone is on horseback......

or better yet, if the humans are dumb how do they have clothes?

still has no bearing on anything in the plot, DC could have bought a phone from Pac Bell and forgot to change the label

Are you talking about the fact that he can remember he has a condition?

JFK

Half the shite in that movie is just leakage from Oliver Stone's burned out little mind.

In the book, the apes have their own language and the humans are naked. It's pretty obvious why all that had to be changed for the film.

I'm going to feel pretty stupid if I'm wrong about this, since we're talking about my favorite movie of all time, but I can't think of one example of the apes having electricity or plastic. What are you referring to?
