To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.
During the scene where General Devereaux is giving his speech after Marshal Law has been started, the camera is showing different parts of the city during Devereaux's speech. Despite that the speech starts and ends during daylight hours, one of the shots shows Devereaux giving the speech on the JumboTron in Times Square at night. [Nothing indicates that the many short shots shown during the speech are real-time snapshots taken as the speech is given. They are all moments occuring before, during and after the speech, showing the inital effects of the arrival of the troops. The night shot is simply showing a relatively quiet Times Square, where the screen is showing a rebroadcast of the speech (or perhaps a newcast that featured a small portion of the speech). There's no crowd gathered watching the screen, suggesting it's already old news when seen here. Only one or two pedestrians appear to even be watching it. Oh- and it's not the Sony Jumbotron. It's a Panasonic.]
