Revealing mistake: At the off-ramp's red light Jack stomps on Annie's foot to keep the bus going, but she screams in pain before her foot actually gets crushed. (00:47:15)

Revealing mistake: When Benny the Cab jumps onto a bridge with Roger and Eddie, a red Ford De Luxe skids to avoid a collision. Notice how tire tracks from a previous take are visible on the pavement. (00:59:35)

Who Framed Roger Rabbit mistake picture

Revealing mistake: After Bongo the Gorilla Bouncer tosses Eddie into a pile of garbage cans in the back alley, Eddie lifts himself up and here we can see that he's wearing knee pads beneath his pants. (00:21:25)

Revealing mistake: After Roger reads Marvin Acme's will out loud, all of the toons start jumping for joy. Meanwhile the music machine is still activated in the background, and its colorful flashing lights are being reflected on the ground near Betty Boop and Tweety at the front of the crowd. With all of the toons grouped together like they are, the machine's colorful lights should have been obscured, not reflected. (01:35:30)

Batman (1989)

Revealing mistake: After the Batmobile's pair of machine guns riddles a straight line of bullet holes through a bay door of Axis Chemicals, it drives in and eventually goes on to blow up the plant. It might seem like the bullet holes themselves would weaken the bay door enough for the Batmobile to push through. But instead - as the bay door falls to the ground - notice how a ready-made seam splits apart directly above the line of bullet holes. (01:34:15)

Revealing mistake: Right before the government agent car skids out at the bottom of the hill, tire tracks from a previous take can be seen on the pavement. (01:40:45)

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Max challenges David to navigate the ship on his own, fingers are seen controlling the Puckmarin's movements at one point. (01:04:05)

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Pee-Wee is face to face with Professor Tanaka asking for Francis' whereabouts, the background behind Pee-Wee turns into an obvious painting on a set between shots. Notice how all sunlight and wind vanishes when he shouts "Where are they hosing him down?" (00:22:15)

Revealing mistake: After Pee-Wee tears through a Godzilla production in the Warner Bros. studios with his bike, he exits the stage, ending up on an alley where he turns left to evade the props and security guards on his tail - one of which has a motorbike. On the pavement beneath him is a curved skid mark from a previous take, not unlike the one left behind by the motorbike seconds later. (01:15:40)

Revealing mistake: On Halloween when the kids are getting ready to go trick-or-treating, Mary tells them to return one hour after sundown. But as E.T. turns around to look at her, human legs are visible below his ghost outfit. (01:02:30)

Fright Night (1985)

Revealing mistake: During the basement finale, lines can be seen suspending Jerry in the air when he lunges towards Peter and sends him crashing into some shelves stacked with glass bottles. (01:37:55)

Fright Night (1985)

Revealing mistake: When Jerry is dragging Charley across the bedroom by his neck, he turns around and slams him into a wall. It wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that once his head makes contact, the wall's gonna break somewhere. But notice how the wall is already cracked right above the classic convertible picture a split second before it should be (widescreen only). (00:29:05)

Revealing mistake: When Tenderheart is flying through the carnival in his rainbow roller, take a good look at the background going by. After "In a Care Bear Family" plays, the camera pans a scene of the carnival once again. If something looks familiar, this is because the same exact background is used twice throughout the movie. Note the 'Joe's Antiques' truck, which is only relevant to a scene in the beginning when Fetuccini's magic trunk is delivered. (00:06:35 - 01:09:30)

Revealing mistake: As the scene changes over from Fetuccini and Nicholas gathering cards to the inauguration ceremony, look very closely at the Care Bear Cousins (seated at the table's left side). Some of them, such as Swift Heart Rabbit and Playful Heart Monkey, already have tummy symbols - which are supposed to be awarded by Tenderheart several moments later. (01:07:05)

Revealing mistake: During "Our Beginning," True Heart Bear takes a walk beneath the ship's deck to check on the sleeping cubs. But when Proud Heart Cat wakes up for a moment, his tummy symbol is visible - which he's not supposed to receive until arriving at the Kingdom of Caring several minutes later. (00:02:20)

Revealing mistake: When Nicholas is being scolded about the magic trunk, a shadow of Fetuccini is cast upon the floor. During the shot where Fetuccini says "Maybe there's some junk I could use in my magic act," he leans back but the shadow does not correspond to his movement. (00:07:45)
