Django Unchained (2012)

Corrected entry: Dr. King Schultz states that he is a bounty hunter and that's what allows him to shoot the sheriff of the town. However, the law allowing and regulating bounty hunting and bounty hunters in the United States did come into effect until 1873. Since the setting of the film is 1858, it is not possible for him to be a bounty hunter at that time.

Correction: The 1873 Supreme Court case Taylor v. Taintor expanded upon and more defined the laws surrounding bounty hunting and what authority a bounty hunter holds, but there were still laws in place concerning bounty hunting well before this.

Django Unchained (2012)

Corrected entry: The final song mentions the Colt .45 round multiple times, but those weren't made by Colt until 1872, 14 years after the events of this movie.

Correction: It's just a song, part of the soundtrack, it's not being sung by any character in the film within the context of the film.
