The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug picture

Oblivion picture

Plot hole: The entire purpose of the clone teams on earth was to service drones. When Jack enters the Tesseract, there are thousands of them lined up in niches in the bulkheads. Further, one would think the alien craft would have the ability to constantly replenish them by the thousands. So there is zero actual need for the clone teams at all. And for that matter, given the drone power cores are powerful explosives, they could just be used to explode on disablement or proximity to kill the humans nearby.

Nebraska picture

Factual error: David fills his car with gas and puts the gas cap back on, on the driver's side, but the Subaru Outback's gas cap is actually on the passenger side of his car. (00:14:50 - 00:24:50)

Superman: Unbound picture

Factual error: When Braniac's robot probe enters the atmosphere over Arizona, fighter jets attempt to shoot it down by hitting it with missiles. The pod is still going fast enough to be on fire from reentry. A missile could not have caught up to an object going that fast. (00:11:30)

The Tiger Mask picture

Continuity mistake: Young Dan and Jo are fighting over their meal. The position of the tray on the table changes several times, most noticeably when Dan leaps off the table. Moreover, when he returns to it after he jumped off the bed, the tray is empty minus a little red berry, but it still had rice and other food on it earlier. (00:18:30)

Epic picture

Continuity mistake: As in most movies I've seen where size is a main factor, the animators did not pay much attention to scale. In the scene where the main character leads the leaf people to her father's house, she is jumping and lands on the thinnest pencils I've ever seen. They have the width of the pencil smaller than her foot. However later on, it is shown that a push pin is almost the size of her body.

Flying Monkeys picture

Visible crew/equipment: When the old guy (Mr Sites?) is leaving the gas station and talking on his phone you can briefly see a large shadow of the boom microphone on the wall/pillar, left side of the screen. (00:55:04)

The Lost Medallion: The Adventures of Billy Stone picture

Continuity mistake: When Billy pulled the medallion out of the ground, part of the cloth covering it was hanging past his hand, but when he blew dirt off the cloth, the cloth was compactly covering the medallion. Also, the cloth should have had more than some loose dirt on it and the medallion - after buried in the ground for 200 years - should have been dirty and tarnished, not clean. (A cloth covering the medallion would not protect it from soaking rains). (00:23:35)

Supercollider picture

Revealing mistake: Robin is running away from company investigators. He comes across a supposed wire link fence. He breaks it with his bare hands, and by the flapping of the open piece you can see it is made with strings not wire.

Continuity mistake: During the first meeting between Sebastian and Belle, the dog drops the game far back on the hill, but the rest of the scene takes place with the dead hare right in front of the 'beast', on the edge of the rock. (00:10:10)
