Other mistake: Looking at a close-up of Ralph Fiennes make-up for his cleft lip/palate, there is a scar from his left lip to his left nostril, but there is a gap in the middle, which should definitely not be there. Once an incision is made, that's it, there is no reason to stop in the middle. In other shots of his face there are no gaps.

Cocoon (1985)
Other mistake: When the 4 humans rush out of the pool house, there are 3 aliens not dressed in their human skins watching them leave. The problem is: only one alien has eyes. We've seen the aliens out of their skins heaps of times and they always have eyes.

World War Z (2013)
Other mistake: When Jerry is in B wing, he has killed two zombies with his crowbar, but when we see the crowbar, there's no blood or brain matter on it.

The Thing (1982)
Other mistake: When Blair goes crazy with an axe, they put him in the tool shed and Doc injects him with something to calm him down. The problem is: Doc injects him in the inner elbow, but wipes the upper arm as if that's where the injection went. Plus you only inject in the inner elbow when you want something IV, but there was no tourniquet, no searching for a vein. It should have been given IM, into a muscle, like the upper arm.

Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Orpheus in the Undergrowth - S2-E2
Other mistake: When Rosemary comes back from seeing her old college professor, she comes in from the garden, but Julia's place - this is where Rosemary and Laura are staying - is on the first floor; there's no access to her place from the garden. Rosemary should have gone to the front door, on the street.

Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Other mistake: When the old well needs filling in, for safety reasons, Ryan is breaking up bricks. If you are filling up a well, first, you'd need lots of bricks and stones, heaps more than Ryan's small pile, and, two, why does Ryan have to break up the bricks? They're going into the well - it doesn't matter if they are big or small.

White House Down (2013)
Other mistake: Near the end, the sprinklers are turned off in the oval office, which should mean they are all turned off as they all came on together, but where the fist-fighting continues, the sprinklers are still on.
10th Jun 2014
Blade Runner (1982)
Other mistake: When Joanna Cassidy hits Harrison in the neck with the side of her hand, Harrison doesn't react immediately as he should; he reacts, falling backwards, a few seconds after he is hit.
10th Jun 2014
World War Z (2013)
Other mistake: When Brad Pitt is on the plane - I think he's landing in Israel - he doesn't take his seat belt off, but that doesn't stop him from getting out of his seat.

Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Orpheus in the Undergrowth - S2-E2
Other mistake: In the beginning, when Julia shows the girls the private gardens, Julia is standing behind them, until suddenly she is standing beside them as she says "Impressed?"
7th May 2014
Barefoot in the Park (1967)
Other mistake: After a night of drinking ouzo, Corie asks Victor if she'll have much of a hangover, not having drunk ouzo before. Victor says no the hangover, but she won't be able to make a fist for 3 days, and when she tries, she can't make a fist, but seconds before Victor spoke, Corie did make a fist, a big one.
6th May 2014
The Cave (2005)
Other mistake: About halfway through, the divers go into water with a very strong current, and yet both Catherine and Nicoli both call Tyler to come to them, which is impossible - the current is too strong for Tyler to even attempt to turn around and go back to them. Both Catherine and Nicoli are in the current, so they will come to Tyler, eventually, when the current isn't so strong and Tyler can hang onto something and wait for them.
6th Apr 2014
Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Orpheus in the Undergrowth - S2-E2
Other mistake: The girls are staying with Julia whose house starts on the first floor, so she has no direct access to the gardens, but when Laura comes back to Julia's place, she enters via the gardens.
19th Mar 2014
Castaway (1986)
Other mistake: As the plane is beginning to crash, Chuck grabs the watch with his girlfriend's photo in it, and somehow it survives everything, but how? He had the watch in his hand, but in many shots we can see Chuck with both hands open as he needs them to hold onto something. He didn't put it in his pocket, he didn't have time.
19th Mar 2014
The Confession (1999)
Other mistake: At the very end, Alec Baldwin drives away and other cars follow him. Problem is: two cars after Alec's car, the green traffic light turns orange, then red, and the cars keep coming. In all, 6 cars go through the red light.
10th Mar 2014
The Impossible (2012)
Other mistake: In hospital, Maria's oxygen mask has a kink in the line near her mouth, which would mean she wouldn't be getting any oxygen at all - or very little.
2nd Mar 2014
Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Orpheus in the Undergrowth - S2-E2
Other mistake: As Laura walks into a darkened bedroom, she turns the light switch on. Not only does the room light come on, but also the bedside lamps, just by turning the switch on by the door.
2nd Mar 2014
Presumed Innocent (1990)
Other mistake: About halfway through, Rusty, his wife and another lawyer are in Raul Julia's office when Raul decides to light a large cigar and while doing so talk all the way through it, which is impossible - you can not talk and light a large cigar at the same time.
24th Feb 2014
Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Other mistake: When Rosemary is bitten by a spider, Laura says how pretty it was, with red and black stripes on its abdomen. Problem is: we don't get to see its abdomen - Rosemary wipes it away with her hand - and all we saw was black, no red in sight.
1st Feb 2014
Rosemary & Thyme (2003)
Other mistake: At the end, Rosemary is attacked by Mrs Potts with a large knife that cuts Rosemary on the left arm, but there's no blood, anywhere.
