Line 166:
* One particularly bad example was the movie ''[[Fantastic Voyage]]''. It features Dr. Michaels, the villian, being left behind while the other characters go back to their normal size, despite the fact that Dr. Michaels for some reason doesn't. Isaac Asimov wrote a novellization of the film that corrects this.
* Mexican [[Masked Luchador]] films are not known for rigorous plot construction, but ''[[El Santo Y Blue Demon Contra Dracula Y El Hombre Lobo]]'' has a particularly bad example of this trope. At the end of the film, the luchador heroes and Santo's girlfriend discuss what to tell the little girl character about her horrifying ordeal when she wakes up in the morning. They decide to tell her it was just a bad dream. Which, yeah, that'll work... at least until she wonders where her mother is, and they have to tell her that she had been transformed into one of the living dead, and (the film implies but does not directly state) sent to her eternal rest after the destruction of the two titular monsters.
* In ''[[Sleeping Dogs]]'', as Smith is brought into the police station, he recognizes the man who earlier paid thugs to commit a [[False
* ''[[Judge Dredd (Film)|Judge Dredd]]''. Where did the Rico clones go after they were hatched during the final battle?
** Since Central said they were only 60% complete and they were caught in the midst of devastating explosions, it's most likely that they died.
Line 316:
* In ''[[Questionable Content]]'' the character Sara just disappears and is never mentioned again. The Cast page [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] this by saying she was eaten by an allosaurus. Author Jeph Jacques says he just dropped her for being boring.
* You'd never know in ''[[Ciem Webcomic Series|Ciem]]'' that resident [[Depraved Bisexual]] Poison Dart Eddie even ''had'' a sidekick, as he is so quickly brushed aside and never mentioned again. Even ''[[Butch Lesbian|Claire Rauscher]]'' has the decency to at least return in a later chapter, if only to {{spoiler|[[Bury Your Gays|fall to her death]]}}.
** A planned {{spoiler|novel}} adaptation may even exclude chapter 10 of the comic entirely, [[Ret Canon|making it so that]] Poison Dart Eddie himself [[Ret
* ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' had a minor one where a reader actually asked, "What happened to the demonic ferret?" The answer was, "She's still there with the other demons, I just forgot to draw her."
* ''[[Get Medieval]]'''s [[Where Are They Now? Epilogue]] is infamously missing Oneder, Iroth's bodyguard-turned-Muslim holy warrior. In the annotated reruns, Ironychan stated that she left out Oneder (and Sir Gerard) because she felt there was nothing really left to say about them.
