I watched Die Hard 2 recently and saw 2 plot holes that I've never seen mentioned:
1. The bad guys plan rellys entirly on the police deliberatly violating the entire Posse Comittus (sp) act, which says (basicly) that the millitary can't be used in an LEO capacity in the US. The FBI Hostage Resque Team should have been called in.
2. Even if the bad guy plan worked perfectly, they are still hours of flight time from anywhere not US, let alone "dosn't have extradition", meeaning that they will be intercepted by fighters and ordered to turn back or be shot down.
Other peeves: On an airport with numrous aircraft on the ground, why can't the airport personel talk to the planes in the air or track down the bad guy's signal? Why is there only one guard on the airplane carrying the general? With that little security, he could have had a parachute smuggle on board and jumped after killing the guard, letting the empty plane continue to Dulles.
Never mind. I should stop thinking now.
