Corrected entry: In the scene where they get the idea for Bella to drink blood, Jacob moves to the other side of the couch away from Bella twice.

X-Men: First Class (2011)
Corrected entry: Moira McTaggert, who has NO mutant powers to prevent her aging, is shown to be in her 30s in this movie set in the 60s. The X-Trilogy is set in the 2000s according to the novelization. That's a gap of 50 years, so Moira should be in her 70s in the trilogy. Yet, when we see her in X-Men 3, she's barely pushing 40.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Lavender dies, her head is facing away from us while Fenrir Greyback is biting her neck. After Fenrir is blown out the window, her head is turned toward us, conveniently so we can see who just died.
Correction: That is wrong. When Greyback is attacking Lavender and is then blown out the window, her head is pointing to the left-hand side of the screen and her face is turned away. The camera shifts its angle, and Lavender is now seen from the "opposite" side, with her head still tilted in the same position, but her body is now pointing to the right, showing her face to the audience.

X-Men: First Class (2011)
Corrected entry: In the scene in the Russian diplomat's bedroom, Erik tightens the bar around Emma's neck so hard that it cracks her diamond neck. Erik says that she can't become diamond again without dying. At the end of the movie, she shifts into diamond form and the cracks in her neck are gone.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Corrected entry: In the original script, Skids and Mudflap were to make their return, only to be killed by Sentinel Prime. Due to such a negative reaction to their appearance in Revenge of the Fallen, Michael Bay removed them from the film. However, there is still one shot in the film where you can see them. When the Autobots are entering NEST headquarters, Skids and Mudflap in vehicle mode are right behind Q.
Correction: This scene was edited for the film to wipe out Skids and Mudflap. They don't appear in the finished cut of the film. If you saw them then I suggest you get a hold of Michael Bay. He put up a $25,000 guarantee to anyone who could find Skids or Mudflap in the film.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Corrected entry: Optimus uses the Matrix of Leadership to revive Sentinel Prime. Only problem is that the Matrix was in the Sun Harvester that was destroyed by Optimus at the end of the second movie.
Correction: Optimus had plenty of time between ROTF and this movie to retrive the Matrix from the rubble of the sun harvester. As important as the Matrix is, Optimus isnt going to just leave it.

X-Men 3 (2006)
Corrected entry: In the recently released prequel, X-Men: First Class, Mystique's "normal" form has blonde hair. In this movie, when she is shown in her human form, she has dark hair.
Correction: You mean Mystique can't change her hair color when she is in human (prequel) form? In the X-Men: First Class prequel she struggled with people accepting her "looks" so when making herself look "normal" she clearly makes her hair blonde too.
19th Sep 2010
Easy A (2010)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Brandon asks Olive out, the picture on Olive's desktop is constantly changing throughout the scene. This also occurs during the scene where Olive's mom gives her Brandon's gift.
Correction: This is because her desktop background is playing a slideshow of pictures.

TRON: Legacy (2010)
Corrected entry: Early in the movie, Sam is riding downtown on his motorcycle. He rides past a radar gun which rates his speed at 8.6 (not 86). Hardly fast enough to be chased by a police motorcycle.
Correction: The 8.6 on the readout of the radar gun is the time in seconds it took to get the speed Sam was traveling at, which was the other number on the display, 103. Sam was going 103 mph, not 8.6.
26th May 2008
National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007)
Corrected entry: While investigating the Statue of Liberty, Ben says, "Laboulaye had to leave a clue somewhere". However, when he says this, his mouth doesn't move.
Correction: Mr. Cage has a tendency to speak without moving his mouth a lot and as he says those lines with the camera to his back, it is difficult to claim that he is not moving his mouth at all.
Very true... In most of his movies he speaks without moving his lips.
8th Nov 2010
How to Train Your Dragon (2010)
Corrected entry: During the first training sequence, Tuffnut and Ruffnut are fighting over a shield. After Ruffnut hits Tuffnut with the shield, she holds it in her hand, but in the next shot, they are both holding onto the shield.
Correction: On that scene, Ruffnut had always both hands on the shield.
23rd Jan 2011
The Green Hornet (2011)
Corrected entry: SPOILER: In the flashback of Scanlon killing Britt's father, it is nighttime when he kills him. But Britt's father died the same day as when Britt woke up with the hot girl after the party. When Britt sees the news report about his father's death, it's daytime the same day. There was no time for Scanlon to wait till nighttime to kill him.
Correction: The flashback was shot in black and white with an angle from the top. With ample light in the scene there is not enough clues to imply that he killed his father at night. Your confusion is understandable.
You must have watched a different movie. The scene wasn't shot in black and white or from an angle from the top. The car in the background at James Reid's house has its lights on to indicate it's night.

Kick-Ass (2010)
Corrected entry: When Red Mist shoots Hit Girl, Big Daddy is devastated. Yet, earlier in the movie, he was seen training his daughter to withstand bullet hits. Surely, he would remember this and realize that she's okay.
24th Aug 2010
Minority Report (2002)
Corrected entry: After Witwer is killed, Lara calls Burgess, who asks, "Has he got the precog with him?" to which Lara responds, "Yes". But Lara has never seen a precog. How would she know what a precog looks like?
Correction: Lara may not have seen one before, but it's hardly unreasonable for her to make the assumption that the woman with Anderton is the missing precog. Who else could she be? Anderton's hardly going to have stopped to pick up a date.

Monsters vs Aliens (2009)
Corrected entry: The whole reason for locking Susan up in the facility is to keep her a secret from the outside world. One tiny problem though: About a hundred people at her wedding saw her grow into a giantess. That's not something you forget very easily. Even later, when she visits Derek and her parents, they have little to no reaction to her changed self. Shouldn't the government have taken precautions to make sure they wouldn't blab?
Correction: This is a question, not a mistake. We don't see what containment measures the Government takes after removing Susan from the wedding; they may have sworn everyone to secrecy or face imprisonment. When Susan goes to visit Derek and her parents the people are the same ones who attended the wedding, they've already seen Susan's big change.
1st Aug 2009
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
Corrected entry: After Optimus Prime dies, there is a shot of Soundwave saying "Decepticons, mobilize". In this shot, you can see that Soundwave is not connected to the military satellite, when he is in a later scene.
Correction: The gaps in time between shots of Soundwave are large enough to assume that he would attach and detach from the satellites as needed.
2nd Jul 2010
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010)
Corrected entry: It's been established that when werewolves morph back to their human forms, their clothes don't morph with them. When Jacob morphs back after being attacked by the vampire, he is naked. Yet, seconds later, when Leah morphs back, she is fully clothed. Fair enough: she could've stashed her clothes somewhere in the clearing, but she had no time to change into her clothes. It'd have to be the fastest change in human history.
7th May 2010
Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel (2009)
Corrected entry: Part of the plot hinges on the fact that the music department has limited funds and is in danger of being shut down. And yet the Chipettes' performance at the school is on a expensive-looking stage with a very sophisticated lighting system. Nice use of budget.
Correction: That system obviously wasn't put in that same year. It's from years gone by, when the district had more money to devote to the music program. It could also have come from money for the drama department, and the music department simply takes advantage of the fact that they're there. The budget money goes to the ones who bring cash back into the school.
6th Oct 2009
Monsters vs Aliens (2009)
Corrected entry: At the end of the Golden Gate Bridge scene, B.O.B. does not get off the bridge before it collapses and no one goes back to save him. But he is seen on the remaining half of the bridge looking down on the scene.
Correction: It's very quick but as the bridge collapses, you can see Bob standing right at the edge of the where the bridge breaks on the safe side. It's shown right after Susan picks up Dr. Cockroach.

Correction: Jacob does move twice, but it is not the same shot. First, he is next to Bella (to keep her warm) before moving away. After a brief interval, he moves from that spot to even farther away and then on to an adjacent sofa.
