Does anyone else whenever they see a movie start to fixate on details that don't make any sense? I was just thinking about the Disney movie Wish, which already isn't considered a great movie by the masses. But if you really think about it, the movie has a HUGE plothole, as well! Specifically, Asha's grandfather's wish.
So, if you've seen or know about Wish, you know that the film revolves around King Magnifico taking people's wishes and granting them in wish granting ceremonies. Asha's Grandfather's wish is to "inspire" people, without any specific details. Do you see what's wrong with this?
1. It's a very simple wish to fulfil without any magic wish granting ceremonies. Literally anything can be done to inspire someone, even if it's just telling them they're good at what they do!
2. King Magnifico was the one that accept to take this wish to be potentially granted in the first place, and yet suddenly he has a problem with it when Asha points the wish out to him. Did he just accept the wish without looking at it the first time?
3. By reacting the way he does to the wish, King Magnifico is inadvertently granting the wish by being inspired by it to become a villainous, paranoid tyrant.
