Stupidity: In the scene around Tenochtitlan, the Eternals have a device that allow them to locate the Deviants - they know for sure that they have exterminated every breathing one. In the rest of the movie this technology is never brought up again. It also makes it really odd that it took them 6,500 years to kill the Deviants, apparently never actively hunting them.

The Suicide Squad (2021)
Stupidity: When the rebel leader talks to Rick Flag guaranteeing her help, she mentions that she will help to find "this Gaius Grieves", speaking as if it was someone unknown to her. He's been around the island (going to bars and surely not being reclusive) for 30 years; it's pretty difficult to think it would not be one of the most known people on the island, given his role, unique appearance and the small community.

The King of Fighters All Star
Stupidity: During the Valentine's day event, the bad guys attack "chocolate factories" the day of St. Valentine to spoil the festivity so "there will be no chocolates to buy." That's not a very timely plan; even if they wreck the factories that day, the chocolates have been already delivered to the stores.

Murder on the Orient Express (2015)
Episode #1.2 - S1-E2
Stupidity: The part when the Colonel and the governess pose as journalists does not make sense. It's far-fetched enough that after a lengthy interview about the culprit's fortune the topic of his family never came up, considering it was one of the main goals and an ideal question to lead with, but considering that "mr. Todo" does not want a picture taken and has a tight security, there's no way that a photographer carrying a large 1930 camera would have been allowed into the interview room to begin with.

Flight to Hell (2003)
Stupidity: Mike's motivations lack any plausibility. He sabotages the depressurization process because he does not want the creatures sucked away, but rather sell them to laboratories. Greed is his sole motive, but (besides the fact that he can easily sell the dead ones as he originally planned) he is willing to blow himself up with the plane lighting a dynamite stick (?), only because he really wanted to make a few extra bucks and wasn't happy with insurance money and the millions promised by the girl.

Flight to Hell (2003)
Stupidity: If there was a live camera feed right where the eggs were, one wonders how everyone missed the 'small' fact that they hatched. That of course combined with the fact that going for no reason in the nest of the creatures that nearly killed another crewmember is suicidal, and Bob goes with no weapons and with one small plastic fruit crate to fetch eggs that are bigger than an ostrich's.

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Stupidity: To save the people from rubble falling on their heads Flash does not move them aside like he did with his future love, but does some strange manoeuvre which takes seconds - since we see people moving normally - and happens in midair (how does he get there?) and that does not take care of a huge chunk of concrete which he does nothing about, shouting just "No!", but Cyborg has all the time he needs to load his Mega Man arm and vaporize it in midair.

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Stupidity: A massive fire of unexplained origin and uncommon persistence kept for hours the fire brigade busy at the Amazon temple, making news all across the world. Of course Diana just waltzes by without any security, media, scientist, and the mysterious arrow which started the fire was clearly not taken in as evidence or anything.

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Stupidity: Wonder Woman gets back to confront the single terrorist still standing; he shoots a single bullet which she parries. The guy is stunned realizing what happened, switches to full auto, starts shooting in an arc. WW is quick enough to run and parry effortlessly and with precision every single bullet from an HK416 (over 700r/s), but somehow is too slow to jump him. With such godly speed, it's unfathomable she even gave him the time to react and switch mode. And she nearly gives him time to reload and fire later. (00:23:15)

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Stupidity: Wonder Woman is fast and strong enough to utterly murder (you can see blood prints on the wall for each person she knocks away) a dozen of terrorists shooting at her, but then with the fight already won she decides to finish off the last guy. So she summons in the room full of hostages an energy blast powerful enough to hurt a New God and that destroys the front of the building, creating debris that nearly kills the police force outside for massive damage to the municipality. What a hero. (00:24:10)

Batman: The Animated Series (1992)
Stupidity: Very heroic of Michael to save his brother, but the way the scene plays out, there's no reason why he had to get on the railway tracks himself and shove him away taking a train to the knee rather than just grab his arm and pull him, which would have been much quicker. Note; he did not rush to him and tackle him, which could very well happen in the heat of the moment. He jumped on the tracks, grabbed him, turned around, and gave him a push. That's very awkward to look at and unnatural.

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
No Victory in Semi Final - S1-E21
Stupidity: The decisive goal happens merely because the players pass the ball to the opposition instead of clearing to the wings. Reading poorly the situation happens in real life as well, but here we have a group of 4 players who charge in close formation, and with all the rest of the field at their disposal, the two Nankatsu players pass the ball in the middle of them for no reason.

Lupin (2021)
Stupidity: The inspector knows that his house has been bugged; he does not know how many bugs and cameras are there, he just knows there are some. He does find a bunch of them with great ease when he gets back home - making you wonder how could he have ignored them to begin with, since all it takes is for him to raise his eyes, they are fairly big black cameras who do not camouflage at all for the most part. He then proceeds to make a phone call to the big baddie from his landline. Nobody in their right mind would do such a thing. Heck, you wouldn't want to use your home phone for such a call even if you didn't know that someone just put bugs all over your house.

Bangkok Dangerous (2008)
Stupidity: Joe's second homicide aims to be ruled as accidental death, but Joe's plan involves a furious struggle with the guy underwater, who claws and bites at his arm, as he applies pressure to his shoulder and neck. Moreover, their struggle happens close to the water surface but the bodyguard who is there does not hear or see anything. (00:35:00)

Trespass (2011)
Stupidity: Kyle Miller gets in a confrontational talk with the villains to convince them that they need him to cut the diamonds he has in the safe; Jonah sums it up as "he wants them to get the diamonds, then give them back to him." Problem is, Kyle does not have any diamonds in the safe, and he knows it. He is selling so hard the bargain on something he does not have. If they agreed, he could not show them any diamonds and he'd have an even harder time dealing with them, and he does not have anything else to give them. Of course if he told them he had no diamonds the movie would have been much shorter, but he didn't have in-character reasons to lie on something like that.
