Doctor Strange
Doctor Strange mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: After Doctor Strange experiments with the magical doorway in the Sanctum Sanctorum, he leaves it on a desert view and we cut to a shot panning across all the artifacts. At the very start of the shot on the right hand side of the screen is a crewmember standing in the shadows looking bored. Really blatant if you turn up the brightness, but easy enough to spot if you know what you're looking at. (00:56:00)

Other mistake: When Dr. Strange rushes a patient to brain surgery they show him and Dr. Christine Palmer operating without surgical masks. When they cut away and come back they're wearing masks. Also, Dr. Palmer is an ER doctor, and her assisting him would never happen in real life.

Factual error: When Dr Strange first exits the London Sanctum there is a blue USPS letter drop box on the corner. London Postal boxes are a different design and red.

Factual error: When Tilda Swinton dies and is lying on the operating table, her pupils are not dilated as they would be immediately after death.

Other mistake: After the fight where his sling ring is stolen by Kaecilius, he has a sling ring in his possession and uses it to jump to Hong Kong.

Question: When Strange is surgically removing the bullet from the patient's brain, why did he ask the one doctor to cover his wristwatch?

Answer: I took it to mean Dr. Strange could hear the watch ticking, and he wanted complete silence.

Bishop73

Answer: Perhaps to also protect the watch from getting blood-stained.

KeyZOid

That's quite a blood spray you would need to reach him.

lionhead

Chosen answer: The watch was reflecting light into his eyes.

lionhead

That makes sense, as the light would distract him while performing a delicate procedure.
