Continuity mistake: According to the previous film, Thor: The Dark World, Asgardian kings live approximately 5,000 years. (If I want to be cautious here, this statement is only valid about Odin and of unknown validity about other Asgardians.) But in this film, Thor says Odin fought Surtur 500,000 years before.

Suggested correction: In Norse mythology, Asgardians have access to the magic apples of the goddess Idunn, which make them immortal. Without the apples, they wither and die. This process takes about 5,000 years. With the apples, they can live forever.
Thanks for writing that. It was fun to read. But according to Thor: The Dark World, Odin is younger than 5,000 years. This film states that Odin has not seen the previous Convergence (the celestial alignment that also takes place every 5,000 years) and the war that was fought by his father, King Bor. He has heard stories of it but he cannot be certain. (See 0:32:00) And Bor is dead. All of these are inconsistent with this film that claims he had lived 500,000 years (100 Convergences.) Also, the franchise seems to have not adopted the Idunn's apple mythology.
The magic apples of the goddess Idunn have to be established in the MCU for this fact to be relevant.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Corrected entry: When Gordon is captured and taken to see Bane, Bane is shirtless and you can see a scar down his back next to his spine. When Bane shoots the henchman and he falls into the water, Bane turns his back to the camera and the scar is gone.
Correction: The scars are there, they're simply obscured by shadows, making them hard to see.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Batman meets Catwoman in the sewer, just after she says "Don't be shy" the shot changes to a camera angle slightly behind Catwoman, we hear her speaking but you can see that her lips are not moving.
Correction: Her lips are in fact moving, but the side of her face is obscured by shadow.

Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)
Corrected entry: The clock from the camera says 12:49 AM. That time only exists in the 24hour time system. It must be 0:49 AM.
Correction: Wrong. 0:49 = 12:49 AM. 24-hour clocks go from 0-23 o'clock, and do not need AM/PM to distinguish which half of the day it is, like 12-hour clocks.

Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)
Corrected entry: One of the earlier scenes in the movie, Dan made an reference to "Clash of the Titans" when he says, "Unleash the Kraken". Titans was released four years following the time this movie takes place.
Correction: The original "Clash of the Titans" came out in 1981, 25 years before this movie takes place. The same quote was also used in "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest", which came out earlier in the same summer where this movie takes place.

Knocked Up (2007)
Corrected entry: Wouldn't Allison notice the condom that was left on the floor when she wakes up Ben?
Correction: We don't know what happened in between the time when they finished having sex, and when Allison woke up to get ready for work. For all we know, Ben could have picked it during the night when he had to use the washroom and thrown it in the garbage, and forgot about it because he was drunk.
