Watchmen (2009)

Corrected entry: On one of the bottom left monitors in Ozymandias' lair, during one of the earliest scenes where we see him watching them, the film "Mars Attacks" is playing, which came out in 1996.

Correction: In our timeline, it did indeed. But this is an altered timeline so events and their times can and are subtly or radically different.

Watchmen (2009)

Corrected entry: In the scene where Dr. Manhattan is visible only as a circulatory system (after the accident where Jon Osterman is locked into a test chamber and caught in an "Intrinsic Field Subtractor" in 1959) we can see that he has pupils in the eyes, while normally he doesn't.

Correction: "Normally" being the point. He is in mid-transformation and we can't know his pupils would not be visible at this point. In fact, since we see them, we know they are indeed visible at this time.

Watchmen (2009)

Corrected entry: When Silk Spectre gets teleported to Mars to meet with Dr. Manhattan, she struggles to breathe in the Martian atmosphere until Dr. Manhattan creates an "oxygen bubble" around them. A person on Mars completely exposed like that would die a most horrid death within seconds, their blood literally boiling almost instantly. And yet Silk Spectre is totally fine after the oxygen bubble is placed around her.

Correction: The submitter's mistake uses junk science. A human exposed to the Martian atmosphere (mostly carbon dioxide) will slowly suffocate as shown in the film. No death in seconds, no blood boiling - that only happens in the movies!
