Scary Movie 3

Corrected entry: In the beginning when the blonde girl gets annoyed by the parrot, she throws her shirt at the cage. However, when she is next seen walking upstairs, her shirt is back on.

Correction: You can see her putting on a shirt, whether it's another one or the same one.

Sol Parker

Corrected entry: When the police sheriff is talking to Tom near the start of the movie, her hat rim is much smaller when she walks down the stairs than it is when she gets in her car.

Correction: The brim of the hat gets larger and larger as the scene goes on for comedic purposes.

Corrected entry: In the scene where the killer is trying to tell Cody "Seven days" the killer has Cindy leave a message. When she starts writing she is obviously writing something small and in the top right-hand corner but when she picks it up and looks at it the writing is in big letters and in the center of the page.

Correction: If Cindy writes something big in the centre of the paper then it would not be funny, we are supposed to think she is writing a long message but of course she is really writing "seven days", that's what makes it funny.

Corrected entry: At the black woman's funeral, when you first see her, her face is twisted, but then when Cindy and the two guys are having a conversation her face is normal with her eyes shut. The black woman's face turns back to twisted shortly afterwards and at the end of the film.

Correction: When Cindy sees her twisted face, she puts it back to look normal. Then her face is twisted again because of the explosion.

Corrected entry: When cindy is at her work and takes her top off, you can see that she is large around the chest; but when she is watching the tape for the first time in her apartment, you can see that she has a flat chest.

Correction: It's part of the spoof, I mean look at the first movie she opens her shirt and she has a hairy beer belly.

Corrected entry: When the blondes pick up the phone it should have picked up the line, but the girl presses the button, in reality, she just would have hung up on the person on the other line.

Sol Parker

Correction: On my phone even if it is on the charger base I need to hit the button to talk - it all depends of what type of phone you have.

Joe Matallanes

Corrected entry: Cindy says everyone at work is taking Martin Luther King Jr. Day off. How can this be, she works at a news broadcast station, they have to work every day.

Sol Parker

Correction: This movie is a spoof. How can it be that a Coors commercial is suddenly re-enacted in the station, complete with lighting and music? The idea that a TV station would be off for MLK Day is completely consistent within the genre.

Corrected entry: When the alien kicks George in his crotch, you see George bending over putting his hand on his knee. When it cuts, he has his hand on his crotch. (01:10:30)

Mortug

Correction: If you watch carefully, when the alien kicks George, his right hand goes to his crotch, not his knee, his left hand to his mid-thigh, then knee. After the cut, his right hand is still in place at his crotch.

Movie Nut

Corrected entry: When Cindy gets back from the Oracle's house she answers the phone for Cody and he says "Six days now, right?" If it is the same night it should still be 7 days. (00:44:15)

Correction: 6 days is correct. There are 6 days and 7 nights left.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: In the trailer, there is a rather humorous exchange between the Oracle and Orpheus, when Orpheus is seated in a chair talking to Cindy. The Oracle is holding a frying pan and asks 'What are you still doing here?' to Orpheus. This scene isn't even in the movie.

Correction: Trailers are invariably created before the final cut of the film is locked in. As such, alternate takes and deleted scenes routinely appear in them. This is not considered an error.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When the president pees out of his finger you can see the device that is making the pee come out on the middle of his finger.

logan crews

Correction: No device can be seen.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When George is thrown out the window the second time,at Brenda's wake, play it in slow motion and you can see it's a a stunt double.

Correction: If you have to use slow motion to see this, it is not valid as a movie mistake.

Twotall

Corrected entry: When the black dude passes the shovel to the other guy, it hits Cody. But if you put that in slow motion, you will see that Cody moves his head without getting hit first.

Correction: If you have to watch it in slow motion to see it, then it is not really a valid mistake.

Mad Ade

Correction: No. They're just in a darkened area. Daylight can be seen through the window numerous times in this scene, and light shines down through the coal shute when Mahalik arrives.

Correction: This is added for comedic reason and is not a mistake whatsoever.

Mortug

Corrected entry: When the marbles spill into one spot on the rug, there are also apples, oranges, and a watermelon that go to that spot. However, when Cindy pulls back the rug, only marbles are there.

Correction: They added this for comedic reasons.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Georges goes to Cindy's house to babysit Cody, Cody gets propelled outside through the window, which breaks. In the next shot the window is intact. (00:39:40)

Correction: The window we see in the next shot is not the same window. We are looking at the window behind George, not the one Cody flew through. Much later there is a shot of the window and this time it is intact. But by this time they have changed the broken window.

Mortug

Corrected entry: Just after Cindy picks up Cody from school and talks with Brenda, you can see when she asks if he's feeling alright that they are near a parked car on the right side of the road. We can see its tailights, so we know what direction it is facing. However, when Cindy is driving, she is driving on the left side of the road, and all the cars parked on the side of the road are also facing the same direction. The scene has obviously been mirrored. (00:12:15)

Correction: Right before Cody is hit by Cindy we can see the cars are parked in the same direction on both sides of the road.

Mortug

Corrected entry: In the scene at the beginning with Pam Anderson, she answers the phone and the power goes out disconnecting her with her mom on the phone. Considering that the power just went out, a few things didn't happen, like the light on the phone charger, it never went out the whole time the lights flickered and when she is walking over to close the fridge door, you can see the microwave in the background reading 10:20 instead of blinking 12:00. Also the phone rings at exactly 10:00 but on the microwave it says 10:20. Most people don't take 20 minutes to walk down a hall, let alone have a phone ring for a whole 20 minutes either.

Correction: Since it is not a direct camera change, some time COULD have passed. The same thing happens when she throws the shirt on the bird/is buttoning up. Plus, my microwave doesn't reset to zero on short power-outages. Perhaps she had one like mine, it's possible.

Corrected entry: I know this is probably to follow the plot line (George being the KKK person) but when he walks into the rap pit his jacket is blue with a white hood, and then when he is up ready to rap it is a completely white jacket.

kurt hudson

Correction: George is wearing 2 jackets. The white one with the hood and another blue one over the top. He took the blue one off.

More quotes from Scary Movie 3

Trivia: When Cindy and the rapper guy are fighting the Ring girl, the president walks in and says, "I just want to wish you both good luck. We're all counting on you." and then he walks out. This is a joke from "Airplane" where Leslie Nielsen is the doctor. He says the same line. The reason it is in the movie Scary Movie 3 is because the director of Airplane also directed this.

Question: There is something I have always wondered about spoofs: Do they actually get permission from the makers of the films they spoof?

Answer: Nope. Parodies aren't usually covered by copyright laws as they are generally considered to be as example of fair usage, provided that it can be demonstrated that the copyrighted material was used in a manner that is considered to be a commentary, ridicule or criticism of that material.
