With brothers and sisters, however, the midi-chlorians don't recognize that they're family. They only see a way to make a supercharged offspring. It's genetic sexual attraction with a side dish of evolutionary theory, and since nothing is more important than siring a new generation of Force users, what do they care if it means a life of webbed toes and awkward family reunions?

We mentioned that Harry, Hermione, and Ron seem to possess a supernatural ability to solve puzzles, dodge danger, and have the exact magical problem-solver they need for every scenario. But what if that isn't luck, but Hermione going back in time and making sure that they can deal with whatever flummoxes them? It's basically the plot of Edge Of Tomorrow, but with more noseless magic Hitlers.

There is, however, an unfortunate side effect of this: Hermione's friends have to had died, like, a lot throughout their adventures. Remember, the only reason they survive the improbable amount of dangers they face is that she has their back ... but that's only because there's another timeline in which they went in half-cocked and got eaten or whatever. Hermione has to discover what the danger is before she can help them survive it.

By the end of the franchise, Harry Potter must have died hundreds, if not thousands of times in order to survive the plot. But on the upside, so did Ron.

When Bruce emerges from the totally-not-a-Lazarus-pit, it's not clear where he came out. The only thing we know is that it's located in "a more ancient part of the world," which isn't exactly helpful. But we in real life know that the scene in question was shot in India, so we'll use that as our starting point. The movie also helpfully states that he spends 22 days travelling back, so ... three weeks to get from India to America. With no money.

Riiiiight.

Warner Bros. Pictures"So, uh, how much does a male prostitute make around here?"

There's no way he could have made that journey without robbing and beating the crap out of a lot of people. Again, he has no money of his own (he's bankrupt), all of his friends are imprisoned, and Gotham City sits somewhere in New Jersey, so throw a transcontinental hike onto that as well. The only solution that makes sense is that he buys some forged documents and a one-way plane ticket. Sure, he could smuggle himself onto a cargo ship, but only if he wants to get there six months after Bane's bomb detonates.

It's get darker, too. It costs anywhere between $600 and $1,100 for a one-way ticket from New Delhi to Newark (standing in for Gotham), whilst the average yearly salary in India is $600. Throw in a set of falsified documents, and that's an extra $200. In all, Bruce needs to "acquire" anywhere between one and two years' local salary in less than three weeks. The ensuing crime wave must have been crazy and caused a ton of financial, not to mention physical, pain (he can't get caught and locked up, after all). In other words, prepare for a whole wave of revenge-driven Batmen popping out of India in 15-20 years.

Ohhh.

The only way the entire world would be willing to lay the blame for Gozergeddon at the feet of the Ghostbusters is if they'd been swayed into believing that it was all nothing but a big hoax. Maybe the Ghostbusters were accused of doing it to promote their business, or to start a war with the ethereal dimension, or all to hit on Sigourney Weaver. (OK, that one's feasible.) The precise "motive" doesn't matter; a significant sector of the population would go along with any explanation, because it's easier to believe that it was shenanigans rather than, say, proof that the afterlife exists and that our understanding of life and death and the Universe is totally and utterly wrong.

Columbia PicturesJust about anything can melt marshmallows.

Hell, 1984 was the year when Art Bell's Coast To Coast AM, the original InfoWars, started transmitting. That, along with cable news, the tabloids, and Weekly World News could have put paid to anyone's reputation. With the change in public opinion, it wouldn't take long for someone to pass legislation to protect themselves and the innocent sheeple from those dangerous con artists they heard about on the radio (between ads for virility shots and brain pills, naturally).

So if she didn't shy away because of her oath, what's another possible explanation? Well, how about her taking a knee because she was cheering for the other team?

Warner Bros. TelevisionNazis, we mean. Not a euphemism.

We're not saying that Diana low-key loves herself some world domination and genocide. We're just saying that it's not that hard to imagine her being swayed by certain components of the Nazi ideology -- notably, those parts concerning antiquity and religion.

After the Nazis came to power, they began conducting archaeological "research" in areas all over the world, with the aim of proving that all of history's greatest civilizations were descended from German/Aryan stock. One of their biggest fascinations was Ancient Greece, and so the Ahnenerbe (the bad guys from Indiana Jones) conducted dozens of archaeological excavations across the country and manipulated the historical record to "prove" the true ancestry of the Greeks. This tiramisu of lies was topped with a hearty dose of cultural appropriation, courtesy of their "taking back" the torch rallies of the old-timey Olympic Games for the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin.

Bundesarchiv, Bild 146-1976-116-08A/CC-BY-SA 3.0How do you say "citation extremely needed" in German?

You can probably guess where we're going with this. Diana and the Amazons are practically time-displaced ancient Greeks. It's also important to note that the Nazi propaganda machine painted the Aryans as a strong warrior race. You know, like that strong warrior race Diana belongs to. What if she didn't stomp Nazi ass because she saw them as similar to her own people? As for why she didn't stomp us, let's be thankful that no hunky Teutonic pilots dropped from the sky and seduced her into becoming Wunderbar Uberfrau. Hey, it wouldn't be the worst thing the DC Extended Universe has ever done.
