Hot Fuzz (2007)

Corrected entry: When the farmer sees Angel in the car with his sunglasses, he says "Danny?" rather then Angel or Nicholas.

Correction: Of course he does. Angel is driving Danny's car, so, as he can't see the driver clearly, he initially assumes that it must be Danny driving it, hence saying the name. It's only after that that he realises that it's actually Angel in the car, at which point he runs to his car to radio for help.

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Corrected entry: In the scene where Nicholas and Danny are talking in the pub, Nicholas says that he missed his father's funeral. Later on in the film, his father comes in on the gunfight. You can tell that he is his father because he says, "Nicholas, my son."

Correction: Try actually paying attention when you watch a film. (1) Nicholas says that he missed his girlfriend's father's funeral, not his own father's, (2) they're at Danny's house when he says it, not in the pub, and (3) the person addressing Angel during the gunfight is the town's vicar, a profession that would often use "my son" or "my daughter" as a term of address, in much the same way as they are often addressed informally as "father" - it's a term implying affection and respect and bears no connotations of a familial relationship in this context.

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Corrected entry: When Danny and Nick stop to pick up the swan, Nick opens the passenger door and you can hear the bonging noise of the door open alarm. Its the only time we hear it when it should in fact be constant, because the drivers door is missing, and the car would interpret that as the door being open.

Correction: Given that the driver's door was torn off, it's entirely possible that the sensor was damaged in some fashion and thus the alarm did not go off.

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Corrected entry: When Nicholas is at the firing range after he shoots down the six figures it goes to a larger view and the figures are standing again.

Correction: It can be seen in the first shot of the booth as Nicholas and Danny approach it that there are two of the figure boxes visible, one in the centre, one on the right, with what appears to be the frame of a third box on the left behind the doctor. The box seen with the standing figures immediately after Nicholas shoots is on the left hand side of the booth (the one previously obscured), while, from where the doctor is looking, Nicholas shot at the central box.
