War of the Worlds picture

Other mistake: When Ray pulls up to Mary Ann's home, the front exterior layout and dimensions of the house are evident, from its near center front door to the two car garage, in front of Ray's van. The side exterior wall contains two large garage doors, which are about 35-40 ft from the location of the front door, with no small basement windows at ground level; inside, beside the front door, the stairs that lead to the basement run parallel just under the stairs in the foyer. In the basement, the small windows on the far end of the furnace room they run into are only about 20 ft from the basement stairs. Not only are the small windows non-existent in the exterior shot, but it's entirely impossible for two small windows to be where they are, considering the exterior footage of the house. (00:34:30 - 00:40:20)

Flightplan picture

Other mistake: When either Kyle or Carson run down the staircase the rails move significantly. On a real plane this would not have passed the pre-flight safety checks and the plane would have been grounded. Nothing in the film suggests the rails would have loosened.

Other mistake: In the opening scenes, when the gang is introduced, one of the members kicks three men and knocks them out, but you can see he misses all of them by at least 6 inches.

The Interpreter picture

Other mistake: The photo of Silvia and her brother, walking on the road with guns in Africa, looks like a composite and is obviously a fake made up for the movie. The images of those two look flatter and have slightly different contrast compared to people in the rest of the photo; separate photos of them have been cut and pasted onto the road photo.

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children picture

Other mistake: Cloud finds Tifa lying on the flower-patch in the church, after the fight with Loz. When we first see her she has her leather gloves on, then the next shot her hands are bare, and again in the next shot she has her gloves again.

Cry_Wolf picture

The Transporter 2 picture

Other mistake: When Frank shows up at Audrey's house, the cops are patrolling the grounds for security reasons. One cop sees that a glass pane in the french door has been smashed, to allow an intruder to unlock the door from the inside. But when the cop opens the door, we see that there is no lock, or even a latch, on the door.

Other mistake: When the zombies come out of the river and start marching, look closely. The first zombies to come out wear wet clothes, but the ones in the back are dry.

The Pacifier picture

Other mistake: When Shane crashes the car through a fence (or wall), it appears that the car sustained absolutely no damage on the front (or anywhere else as far as I could tell). Later, there seemed to be very little damage to the car as a result of a chase scene where the car hit things, just a relatively minor scrape or two.

Assault on Precinct 13 picture Assault on Precinct 13 mistake picture

Other mistake: During the film Ethan Hawke's pills are talked about between him and his evaluator. When you finally see him open his pill container, it is clear that the pills are actually Ice Breakers breath mints. You can see the trademarked "Flavor Crystals" (the dark blue spots on the white mint). (01:20:25)

Saw II picture

Other mistake: The drip-meter that is supposed to administer Jigsaw's medication is not turned on. Anyone who has spent time in a hospital and seen one for real knows that a lot of numbers are shown on the displays when it is running to show medication status. (00:13:50)

Suggested correction: It's not specifically stated that the machine is in use. That's just an assumption. It could be set dressing he's using to enhance the perception of his condition.

Serenity picture

Other mistake: When the camera changes shot to the security feed for the first time in River's bar brawl scene, you can see, on the top right, Jayne and Mal sitting down with Fanty and Mingo and the Dancer preparing to block the camera's view. This is before the gang have even stepped into the bar.

Wolf Creek picture

Other mistake: When Ben lies wounded in the open, we are treated to a solar eclipse followed by a full moon. These events must be 2 weeks apart. Long enough for Ben to have grown a beard (which doesn't happen), but too long for him to survive without water.

Hellraiser: Deader picture

Other mistake: When Amy first goes into Marla's apartment, she sees that the food in the kitchen is spoiled; there is a few weeks worth of mould on the scattered dishes and the food on the plates by the sink is especially bad. Yet on one plate by the sink, there is a piece of bread still perfectly white and free of decay, though it is surrounded by other mouldy scraps. The shot is only visible for a moment.

Doom picture

Other mistake: The chaingun was actually a heavily dressed up Browning Browning Model 1919 machine gun with a fake rotating barrel cluster surrounding the real firing barrel - in several firing scenes a careful eye will notice the barrels are not even rotating.

Category 7: The End of the World picture

Other mistake: When Tommy and Faith are in the trailer park with the tornados are hitting and they hide behind the pole, so as not to get hit with a trailer, you can plainly see that Faith's (Shannon D) knees are sticking out, in the way of the flying trailer but doesn't get hit.
