Fantasies definitely need to maintain their own set of rules and they usually establish anything that might be able to happen pretty early on. Throwing in a curve ball at the end is cheap bullshit. The first avengers literally put me to sleep about an hour in though so its clearly not my thing. The only modern superhero movies that were good to me were the first amazing spiderman and batman begins.

Here's something about the Cosby rapes that I'd never considered: what are the odds that he drugged so many women and none of them died? I think he's probably a murderer.

I wish.

I think since they often woke up mid-fuck, or them seeing him naked, he had the weakest pills.

In his defense.

I voted no, if only because movies are big productions with a lot of moving parts so "avoidance of plotholes" would only account for maybe 10-15% of a movie's score. There's also directing, cinematography, acting, dialogue, the overall story to take into account. Heck, I'll even cut a movie some slack if there is a plothole but I only notice it when thinking about the movie after the fact. And then it depends on the severity of the plothole, if it is merely improbable and not impossible within the movie's world, I'm OK with some yadda yadda treatment. But a movie that does everything else right, but isn't 100% internally consistent would still get at least 4 stars from me.

Well sure, not all plotholes are the same. If its how can one person be in two places at once, I'm looking at you High Tension, you're going to lose a whole star. If it's how did the Joker get out of the building after throwing Rachel out the window or isn't it astounding that those robots landed on the same planet as Darth Vader's son, then who cares? I don't get soured on a movie because one scene has clunky dialogue or one of the actors is phoning it in, so if a plothole is minor or can easily be explained away in my head, than its not going to hurt the overall movie for me.

Let me be the first to nominate Rae Sanni as Best New Guest of 2015. Fantastic! And a great riff on how violence has changed the world. Plus that accent too. Aces.
