It's official. The internet has no idea what a "Plot Hole" actually is.
The only hole your finding is in your logic, that same logic that leads to you thinking a new episode of STRANGER THINGS is coming.

I loathe dudes that are obsessed with how much money someone else makes or constantly speculate and talk down about what they think they make. They so openly and brazenly assign value to someone based on their earnings.
These people suck, and they permeate the film industry.
