OK probably not a plot hole but why in Karate Kid 2 why do the Japanese speak English to each other?

I get them speaking English to Daniel but bar the small lines Mr.Miyagis father speaks to him rest of the dialogue is in English

Watching When Harry Met Sally on BBC Wan.

Sally is driving an automobile and is talking to Harry.  She looks over at him talking for numerous seconds on end.
In reality would probably have crashed the car as she is not looking at the road ahead.

Wasn't it a test plane?

A 50 year old F-14 taking on modern fighters was far more outlandish.

In Top Gun Maverick Mr. Tom Cruise is flying a fighter jet at Mach 10.

Yet the fastest anyone has flown is Mach 2 or so in a fighter jet.

Mach 6 is the record I fink by a NASA plane/rocket

Currently watching this film called Hustle on Netflix with Adam Sandler as a Basketball scout/coach.
He goes to Spain and sees this Spanish lad from a poor neighbourhood and follows him home and tries to talk to him outside his apartment but the guy can't understand a word of English and he has to make gestures and show him some ex famous basketball player on his phone to get his message across.
His mother has to interpret for him as he says he is an NBA team scout and wants to bring him to Philadelphia.
Next scene is they are at the airport and the guy can speak English all of a sudden even understanding Sandlers american slang.

Wait till Myers and Loomis get immolated at the end. And guess what, a decade later they’re back in business.


It just finished.  He is burning away alright.

In that deleted scene she suggests attacking Cyberdyne and he immediately shoots the idea down, and then points a gun at her! It's a completely toxic relationship, and she'd only fall in love with him in a couple of days if she was a headbanger herself! (Which the movie never suggests)

Terminator is a novel idea for a movie, but the inclusion of a love story seems like a Hollywood cliche - especially its weirdness "I've always been obsessed with you since I fell in love with your photograph".

Neither of these characters needed to be in love in order to have a sex scene.

They have some prior scenes fighting the terminator prior to the police station scene.

Obviously you hear gunshots and then the guy who saved you before comes saves you again  I get what you're saying but you can also see from the other side too of learning to trust him.

A deleted scene also see them meet the cop who tells them he believes them and to asks Reece to keep her safe.
 
There's also a deleted scene I think prior to the dream scene were she sees the future were Kyle breaks down about being scared  alone and confused about the current world...he stops short of admission of his feelings at this moment but obviously gave her unintentional hints.

It also puts the idea of going to destroy Cyberdene into the plot too, which is why they end up at the factory later again a deleted ending scene revealed the factory to be cyberdene and two employees finding the terminator before the cops and keeping shush shush about it


Ending scene

In Terminator 1 Kyle Reece arrives in 1984 and steals a homeless guys dirty pants.  He then rescues Sarah Connor and ends up doing a mating ritual with the aforementioned.

Can I ask Sarah Connor what she found attractive about a lad wearing dirty pants some lad must have pissed himself in numerous times never mind possibly followed through on and worn possibly for months without a wash?

I'll never understand women.
