Spider-Man (1994)

Answer: The producer, John Semper Jr., claimed that he couldn't imagine Chameleon risking revealing his identity by using his real voice. Chameleon can speak in his true form but simply chooses not to.

StageFright (1987)

Plot hole: There's no way Irving Wallace could've snuck out of the asylum without somebody noticing him.

Revealing mistake: Clearly Melissa Anderson doing all the killing until the unmasking. She's got bright light blue eyes whereas Tracey Bregman's got regular blue eyes.

Show generally

Question: How is it possible the doctors at Arkham can keep being fooled by the likes of Poison Ivy, Two Face, The Riddler, etc., who're only pretending to be cured? Surely they could tell when they're faking.

Rob245

Answer: The problem is that you're trying to force real-world logic into a series with heavy sci-fi/fantasy elements and broad storytelling. Would a real-world psychologist be able to tell when someone is faking? Possibly. But that doesn't make for fun storytelling, especially for a fantasy-heavy series aimed predominately at children. This is one of those cases where the audience is merely expected to suspend their disbelief for the sake of entertainment. And I can tell you that as a kid who watched this show when it first aired in the 90's, I personally never even thought about it.

Batman: Arkham Knight

Trivia: The second time the reference for Batman: Arkham Asylum is used here. It's Scarecrow's mask from the asylum on the floor of the control room in Ace Chemicals that was seen atop the bridge in the Industrial District in Batman: Arkham City.

Trivia: This game has the most times Bebop and Rocksteady appear as bosses. Four total: one for each of them, then when they use a monster truck against the turtles then fight them together on a skyscraper.

Walk Like a Man (1987)

Revealing mistake: There are times in the movie when you can tell Bobo's beard is fake such as when Penny's giving him a drink from a 7-11 and it's peeling off near his right ear.

Star Wars (1977)

Answer: Hands aren't necessary for force usage - it's more a gesture to aid concentration (or for effect, or simply because it looks good on film). During Luke's fight with Vader in The Empire Strikes Back for example, Vader is flinging large objects at Luke without removing his hands from his lightsaber at all.
