Line 31:
** Abe gets it rather badly shortly after spinning the "my brother knows everything I know" idiot ball—what does he do when he is informed of this rather critical piece of information? Go inform HQ that they'll probably be getting a PO'd elf prince breaking in? Work on evacuating everyone to safety? No, he and Hellboy get drunk and sing love songs.
** At any point in the movie someone could have thwarted the prince's plan by destroying part or all of the crown that controlled the Golden Army, which is exactly what they end up doing in the end.
* Nero, from the new{{when}} ''[[Star Trek (film)|Star Trek]]'' movie has just seen his planet destroyed, and immediately falls into a time warp, sending him some 100 years into the past. What's his first idea? Destroy the planet of the man who was too slow in saving his planet. Not once, NOT ONCE is it ever mentioned that HE IS IN THE PAST. Had Nero simply returned to Romulus, he could have told his home of the disaster in the coming future, AND given knowledge of superior technology a century ahead of the times. The Romulans being the kind of folk they are would then take this technology, refit their ships, decimate the Federation and remember to evacuate their planet before their sun explodes (if they can't solve the problem altogether). He has 25 years to realize that his plan is stupid. Never crosses his mind.
** He's gone insane from the loss of his home, people, and family. He even says at one point that the Romulus of this time isn't ''his'' Romulus.
*** Particularly since going back in time caused a split timeline. Whatever happens to the Romulus of the new timeline, ''his'' home and family are irrevocably destroyed.
