Sahara (2005)

Factual error: Dr. Rojas throws the sticks of dynamite onto the sandbank that eventually reveals the ironclad ship. The explosions generated by the dynamite however are fantasy. Dynamite does not explode like a fuel flamed explosion as seen on screen.

The Iron Giant (1999)

Continuity mistake: When the Iron Giant and Howgarth meet for the second time, they both sit down, and you can see that both the Giants hands are flat on the floor, then the Giant produces the electricity shut off switch from one of his hands even though both his hands were previously empty.

Finding Nemo (2003)

Factual error: When Bruce is chasing Marlin and Dory inside the submarine, the chase goes through a few 90 degree turns, but each turn that leads them to chase width-ways inside the submarine is far longer than the actual dimensions of the submarine would allow.

Continuity mistake: When Kevin is cleaning up in the kitchen, he puts a load of Burger King related rubbish into the sink. In the next shot as Evil-Lyn enters the kitchen, the sink is now empty.

Continuity mistake: In close up shots of He-Man on the flying disc, you can see some kind of safety support behind to stop him falling off, but in the far away shots, no such support exists.

Hard Target (1993)

Revealing mistake: Foucan doesn't apply grease of gel to his hair for the entirety of the movie, but after his coat gets set on fire, you can see the fire proof protective gel now covering his hair.

Hard Target (1993)

Continuity mistake: Boudreaux shoots one of the men in the helicopter, and you can see him hanging out of the doorway inert his weapon fallen away. In the next shot however as the helicopter flies overhead, he's now standing upright with his weapon in his hands looking very much alive.

Revealing mistake: When in the desert crash scenes, there is a side on view of a garbage truck lifting up a Police car and dropping it into its bin on the back. In the foreground is an upturned Police car that another car vaults over and crashes. You can see the ramp in front of the upturned car that enables the other Police car to vault it.

Continuity mistake: When Justice is chasing Bandit after the desert crash scenes, he says about how Bandit has picked a route with only one way out, and behind him you can see a load of trucks. The next camera shot then shows Justice driving away from the camera with Police cars following, then the next shot then goes back to an interior shot of Justice and there is now nothing behind him.

Hard Target (1993)

Other mistake: Van Cleef and Boudreaux reload their guns, and then have the mother of all firefights, culminating with Boudreaux emptying both guns into Van Cleef. They only had two guns each and the amount of shots they fired apiece was way in-excess of what they reloaded.

Other mistake: When Justices car gets crushed as is almost triangular shaped, and driving down the road, it shows a shot of Justice cleaning off some dirt from the dashboard. If you look at the hood/bonnet where all the crease marks are from the crash, you can see quite a bit of rust where the paint has flaked off. Considering the damage is only supposed to have just happened, there should be clean metal not rust.

Hard Target (1993)

Revealing mistake: The helicopter that chases down Boudreaux fires a shot at his horse that causes an explosion that makes it fall, then another shot is fired, but the resulting explosion is exactly the same as the previous one, except the footage is taken from a different angle.

Robocop 3 (1993)

Factual error: When Robocop first flies into the the battle at the end of the movie, the whine from his jetpack causes the glass in some windows to blow outwards. Considering the sound waves are hitting the glass from the outside of the windows, they should be blown inwards not outwards.

Star Trek (2009)

Continuity mistake: When Kirk meets Uhura in the bar, there is an alien nursing his beer between them, and he never takes a sip, yet in one of the following shots, the beer is now significantly lower in the glass. The alien is in shot between Uhura and Kirk for the majority of the scene, and in the intervening shots, there is not enough time for him to have taken a sip of his beer. (00:20:15)

The Hangover (2009)

Continuity mistake: After the China man escapes from the boot of the Mercedes, Alan is resting against the wheel, and in the close up shots of the door it has dirt streaks on it, but when Stuart goes to talk to Alan, the dirt streaks come and go.

GalahadFairlight

Other mistake: When one of the agents is ambushed by the Tooth Fairies he is reduced to a skeleton, with his teeth still visible. However, it was earlier stated that Tooth Fairies start by eating the teeth, then finish off the rest of a body.
