Super Grover

Corrected entry: At the end of singing "Gotta Go My Own Way," Gabriella gives Troy back his "T" necklace. The next time he sees her, as she emerges from the crowd during the song "Everyday," she's wearing the necklace again.

Correction: Of course she is wearing the necklace again, that's the point. After Troy goes back to just being kitchen help, makes up with Chad and the others, then agrees to sing with Sharpay as well as to learn the new song, behind the scenes Ryan, Kelsi and whomever else sneakily arrange for Gabriella to show up at the talent show. Considering the fact that Gabriella came back to the resort and then learned the new song, it is also obvious that behind the scenes either she or one of their friends simply retrieved her 'T' necklace (from Troy's bedroom or locker), so when Troy sees her wearing it again he would instantaneously know that 'they' are okay .

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Hermione hits Ron with her spell, as he flies back you can briefly see the wire guiding him as he flying backwards.

Hamster

Correction: Actually, no wire is visible during these shots.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Jack and Elizabeth are being marooned, Jack dives off the plank wearing his boots. When he wades ashore, he is barefoot and is carrying only his sword and pistol, not his boots. He remains barefoot throughout the stay on the island. But after he and Elizabeth are rescued, his boots mysteriously reappear.

Correction: Jack's boots are in fact visible as he walks out of the water behind Elizabeth, in the shot just before he says, "That's the second time I've had to watch that man sail away on my ship," look closely at the bottom of the screen. When Elizabeth chases after him saying, "But you were marooned on this island before." time has passed and he is not wearing his wet vest either. His boots are also seen that evening, hanging upside down (drying), as they sing and dance around the fire.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: Towards the end of the film a British soldier who picks up Norrington's Sword (Davy Jones then takes it from him and stabs him with it) is one of the soldiers who is later seen with his mate in pirate dress on the Black Pearl - completely uninjured.

Correction: Yes, Murtog and Mulroy have changed to pirate garb on the Pearl. However, the British soldier, who is stabbed by Jones on deck, is not Mulroy, though the man does resemble him.

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Corrected entry: Outside the flower shop when Sergeant Angel first sees the hooded person, he throws his baton at the window breaking the glass. We then see Sergeant Angel jumping through the same window breaking the glass yet again.

Correction: Quite right that Nicholas throws his baton at the pane of glass, but only part of the glass actually shatters. When he runs through he breaks the rest of the pane. If necessary, view it in slow motion.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Jesse and Leslie are helping Miss Edmonds carry the boxes, the teacher's hair is cut in a short bob. A couple of days later, it's long again, past her shoulders.

wizard_of_gore

Correction: Ms. Edmunds's long hair is pulled into a side ponytail during that brief scene; her hair length is consistent with the rest of the film.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: As Elizabeth is about to cuff Jack, a crew member is visible at the back of the boat. This is not an actor because all the characters had already abandoned ship.

Matty W

Correction: None of the filming crew is seen anywhere for the duration of this scene.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When the Black Pearl crew reach Tia Dalma's shack, all those who go to enter the shack say "Mind the boat". Jack says this and enters, as does Gibbs, Will, Ragetti, Pintel, Marty and the parrot. However, during the scene inside the shack, Marty is nowhere to be seen.

Correction: Marty is indeed in Tia Dalma's shack. When Gibbs asks, "What is inside?" and Pintel follows, "Gold? Jewels?" Marty is visible at the bottom left of the screen, behind Ragetti. He's seen in other shots from this particular angle, including when Gibbs, Pintel and Ragetti do their "Black Spot" spin.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: Several times in the movie, the dog is not taken with them on the walk/run to the river or across the river into Terabithia, but it appears with them on the other side.

Correction: When Prince Terrian (the dog) is with Jesse and Leslie in "Terabithia" the dog is either shown being carried by Jesse, as they cross the creek, or in other scenes their actual entrance to "Terabithia" (by crossing the creek) is not even seen onscreen, so those scenes pickup with P.T. and the kids already there.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Lord Voldemort holds out his hand to receive the "prophecy-bubble" he is forcing Harry to give to him, we see a shot of Neville shouting "Don't give it to her!" Her? You-Know-Who isn't exactly a very masculine type, but... (There was probably a scene with Bellatrix there which was cut out.)

Correction: First, it is Lucius Malfoy, one of Voldemort's Death Eaters, that demands the Prophecy orb. Second, Neville actually says, "Don't give it to him, Harry." He does not say "her."

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Harry is having a dinner with the Order of Phoenix group, look at the glasses - the liquid inside differs from empty to full from shot-to-shot.

Correction: You are confusing different glasses on the table. The liquid, or lack thereof, in their individual glasses is consistent for the duration of this scene.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In Dumbledore's office at the end of the movie. Harry says, "I couldn't help but notice certain similarities between Dumbledore and me." His mouth says "Voldemort" but on the VHS, it is dubbed over as "Dumbledore."

Correction: Harry actually says, "I couldn't help but notice certain things, certain similarities, between Tom Riddle and me." Harry says neither Voldemort nor Dumbledore.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Elizabeth climbs onto the Black Pearl and sees Captain Barbossa for the first time, the monkey flies onto his shoulder. The wire connected to the back of the monkey's jacket is visible. (00:36:25)

Correction: At no point in this shot is any kind of wire seen at monkey Jack's back. At the start of the shot, the monkey is behind the Pearl's wheel, as he holds the line, and then swings to Barbossa. As he approaches Barbossa he reaches out with his left hand, grabs hold of Barbossa's shoulder and when he lands there he lets go of the line, which begins to swing back.

Nanny McPhee (2005)

Corrected entry: Sebastian is asking for food from Evangeline after the dad told them to go to bed. When he is sitting on the piano, you can see a crewmember's head passing behind Sebastian.

Correction: That is their father, Cedric Brown, after he exits the room and walks down the hallway.

RV (2006)

Corrected entry: When the Munro family leaves the station, we see a wideshot and the RV had the diesel pump still attached in the pump hole. In subsquent shots the pump has vanished.

Hamster

Correction: The RV is seen as it takes off from the gas station, with the broken gas pump attached. The RV is not seen again until after the Gornickes pick up the laptop stealing folk singer, and the gas pump is indeed still hanging out of the gas tank fill spout.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When the Pearl is chasing after the Intercepter to retrieve the gold medallion, the Interceptor drops its anchor into the water. As it catches and the ship suddenly dips forward the back of the ship is shown. The rear of the ship emerges from the water and you can see the propeller on the back of the ship spinning out of the water and splashing.

Matty W

Correction: When Interceptor's stern is visible, it is the rudder that creates the intense splashing - there is no propeller seen at her stern.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Will says, "You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I'd have killed you," none of the words match his mouth.

Matty W

Correction: Every syllable that is spoken by Will matches that line.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In the fight scene between Jack and Barbossa near the end of the movie (just after Jack has found out he was cursed). There is a moment when Jack slashes at Barbossa's back with his sword and for a fraction of a second in the top left corner of the screen in the background; you can see the outlines/silhouettes of two crew members leaning on some scaffolding watching the fight.

Correction: You are seeing the dim silhouettes of Elizabeth and Will, and they are holding the long gold pole in front of themselves - with which Elizabeth whacks the pirate, just moments later.

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Corrected entry: Pam, when starting the trip in the motor home, has on a green pullover sweater as she sits in the back with Dina and Little Jack. It then changes to a green jacket. (00:13:05 - 00:13:55)

Luna Negra

Correction: In the first shot, when Jack begins his announcement as they drive off from Oyster Bay in Long Island, Pam is wearing the short sleeve green sweater over her blouse, and Little Jack is wearing blue pants. After Jack finishes his announcement and ribs Greg, there is an aerial shot of the motor coach traveling on the Verrazano Bridge (towards New Jersey), with Manhattan in the background, which means they've driven about 40 miles off screen between shots, at this point. It isn't until a few shots after they pass the exit sign with the "Giant Ball of String" that we finally see Pam wearing the green long sleeve jacket over the blouse, and LJ wearing blue shorts. More than enough time has passed in the interim for Pam's and LJ's attire to change.

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Corrected entry: After the football game, when Greg goes to check on Jack, who is resting in Roz's office, the original statue by the door that Greg shoved behind the dresser is now back, along with a new 2nd statue on the left and the shell is now in the middle of the desk. (00:55:01)

Luna Negra

Correction: After Roz tells Greg that her office is ready for Dina and Jack, yes, Greg places the couple statue upside-down behind the table, with its base flush with the tabletop; shortly after, Jack informs them that he and Dina will be staying in their motorhome - not Roz's office. It is not until hours later, in the evening, after the toilet incident, that Dina, Jack and LJ finally enter Roz's office, when we see the couple statue and another statue on the tabletop, with the sea shell. Since Dina and Jack were not planning on sleeping in Roz's office, this simple rearrangement can easily be made, during the many hours off screen, by Roz herself.
