[net.movies] Where did the writer go?

[A Bug.  Hmmm, I'll have a Mutant Bug.  Hello, Yar.]

I have nominations for Greatest Lack of Continuity in a Movie:

"Cannonball Run"
	The start of the race everyone gets timecards.  At the
	end the timecards went the way of the script writer....

"Up the Creek"
	[My choice for Worst Movie of the 80's.]
	Not only did the actors vacillate in and out of their
	lifejackets and wet/dry clothes, but the climax of the
	film relies on the fact that suddenly the river becomes
	a hillside 1 mile downstream....

"E.T."
	Boy, wouldn't it have been neat if that little scuzzy
	twerp could fly at the *beginning* of the movie so he
	didn't get left behind?

"2001"
	A Strauss video:  A zillion dollars for the accuracy and
	beauty of the models in the first half; eighty-nine cents
	for the melted crayons in the last half....

Any other nominations?
