Growing Up

Other mistake: Despite the fact that by design the events that progress the story of the various characters happen years apart (months at best), everyone refers to dialogue you had a long time before as "the other day."

Eternals (2021)

Other mistake: In 5000 BC, Eternals communicate between themselves using contemporary English. That's only expected in a movie, and they speak with natives using their own language, which some of them struggle to learn, nothing strange. Problem is, several Eternals speak English with a very noticeable accent (Scottish, Mexican, Indian) that predates any time when those cultures/nationalities existed. Lauren Ridloff's Makkari being mute speaks with ASL; American sign language, created in the early XIX century.

Eternals (2021)

Other mistake: Throughout the movie, the timeframe of Ikaris and Sersi's relationship seems to constantly change; their first kiss is in 575 BC, but Phastus in 2020 asks her how could she stand him for 5000 years. Sprite tells Dane that they broke up 100 years before, but he leaves her because he can't stand to keep secret from her the mission. Which is a problem, since he mentioned that Ajak told him that when they left Babylon, so around 500 BC.

Eternals (2021)

Other mistake: When Arishem shows his plan to Sersi, the Celestial emerging from Earth is a huge being that completely breaks the planet apart. In the movie finale, the Celestial's hand and head have popped out, but he's much smaller - thankfully, because if he truly had limbs the size of continents, the planet would have exploded before anyone could do anything about it. At that size (again, judging from lack of permanent damage from his half-birth) it's hard to imagine why his birth is supposedly doomsday.

Eternals (2021)

Other mistake: Ajak uses her power to close wounds on other Eternals and when a creature heals itself everyone thinks it is Ajak's power, indicating she is the only one capable of such a feat. However, in the rest of the movie some Eternals pick up significant injuries, but even without 'the healer' are fine.

The Suicide Squad (2021)

Other mistake: Escaping from her captivity Harley kills a dozen people with the javelin in brutal gory ways, but when she gets on the taxi the weapon's golden finiments appear to be spotless. (01:14:00)

The Suicide Squad (2021)

Other mistake: Beach scene; by the clocks in the control room it's supposed to be just before or at most past midnight (22:52 in Florida, presumably). Explosions nearby, barely past the thick of vegetation, but the team instantly goes to sleep as if they were anyplace safe. To make it more absurd, they awaken in the 'middle of the night' when Polka-Dot Man relieves himself and King Shark tries to eat the rat lady. Cut to the control room, and it's 23:53. It's as if they did not try to move any distance at all. (00:12:35 - 00:29:40)

Sammo

Other mistake: The villain's plan is to impersonate along with his large crew a platoon of the Mexican army. He already captured the soldiers and has them incapacitated, all he needs to do is take their uniforms. Instead of doing so, though, he mows down the whole lot with a heavy machinegun. When it's time to put on the show, everyone wears nice and tidy white uniforms.

Sammo

Other mistake: At the end of the first day, June falls asleep on the couch and 'someone' brings her blankets - but also strips her. The monologue when she wakes up specifies that she is naked but the graphic shows her wearing her big sweater dress. When she is naked in other parts of the game, they correctly show no portrait or one from neck up.

Queen's Glory

Queen's Glory mistake picture

Other mistake: When your creepy uncle shows his true colors and demands for your 'obedience', several Engrish misspellings can be observed, most notably "farther" instead of "father."

Beneath Steel Clouds

Other mistake: During the intimate interaction with Vanilla, the hotspot for "Take off her skirt" is in fact on the clasp of her bra.

Sammo

Other mistake: In the opening credits, the composer of the movie score is credited as "Elizabeth Lutyens", with a Z. Her proper name was Elisabeth, with an S. (00:00:50)

Sammo

Other mistake: Legendary wrestler Antonino Rocca makes a cameo appearance in the movie. He is, as correctly listed in the closing credits, one of the "Funeral Attendants" together with Michael Weil. However in the opening credits he was specifically billed as the Funeral Director, which is Ronald Willoughby's role as correctly listed in the end credits. (00:00:50 - 01:45:15)

Sammo

Other mistake: The subtitles of the international version translate a few things completely wrong, including, when the body of the warden is found, "There were three men!" instead of "It happened at half past three." (00:04:25)

Sammo

Other mistake: Lauren Tewes' character is credited as "Jessie", but the name tag on her waitress outfit says "Jesse." (00:17:00)

Hell Up in Harlem (1973)

Other mistake: Throughout the whole scene when Black Caesar is wounded by the Irish hitman several passers-by can be seen looking directly into the camera, and in many shots people are crowded together on the sidewalk watching the filming. Conversely, the hitman fires a big and loud revolver in the middle of a crossing with dozens of people and cars in close quarters, and nobody bats an eyelid. (00:03:00)

Spider in the Web (2019)

Other mistake: Daniel realises that Adereth gave him his own passport. When he looks at it, notice the machine code line; it's the passport of someone born on April 30, 1963, far off from Daniel's age, and more importantly, not matching the ID's date. October 10th 1982. (00:20:30)

The Simpsons (1989)

Other mistake: Peter Chang is billed in the opening credits as the one and only Fighting Instructors, plural.

Sammo

Other mistake: Despite being a deadly marksman (only a few minutes earlier in the movie he stopped a bullet directed at him shooting it off the air), Bloodsport snipes several times at the huge kaiju featuring a massive eye in the central part of its body, and never once hits it. (01:51:45)
