G.I. Joe: Retaliation
G.I. Joe: Retaliation mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: In the extended action cut edition of the Blu Ray, during the added scene while Jinx and Snake Eyes are training, near the end of the scene Snake Eyes jumps near a tree and the camera faces upward. When it does you can see where the dojo set ends, and the top of the actual set with lighting equipment at the ceiling.

Factual error: In the beginning scene, Roadblock melts through the fence using some high tech gloves. The design and application of these gloves make no sense realistically. For one, the gloves are open fingered, thus causing great risk to Roadblock of even just a melted metal drip with a slight breeze. The intense heat, even if directed down towards the fence metal, would still be enough, if able to melt through metal in an instant, to burn his fingers as well, even from behind. It would be much safer, much easier, and much more practical to have the same type of device as an external stick or long object, or even an extension of a gun, keeping the hands out of harm's way.
