Corrected entry: Tom gets hit in the eye by a heavy ashtray. It leaves a large, visible purple mark, yet for the rest of the movie, there is no sign of an injury, not even a small bruise.

Just Married (2003)
Corrected entry: In the scene right after Tom sees Sarah kiss her ex boyfriend from the balcony, Sarah and Tom are arguing in their room. In one shot, you don't see the red bra (the girl from the bar's) on the chair in the background, next shot it's there.
Correction: Wendy's red bra is seen hanging on the chair in every shot showing that particular chair.

Just Married (2003)
Corrected entry: At the beginning of the movie, when Tom is playing football on the beach with his friends (before the two meet), it shows Sarah walking with her dog in a pink sweater. Then it cuts to a different angle and shows her in the background without the dog and in a darker sweater. Then, when the football is about to hit her, she has the dog and first sweater back.
Correction: The woman in the background as Kyle is tackled onto the sand is not Sarah, she is just a woman walking on the beach wearing a short sleeve red shirt, big hat, and shorts. Sarah wears a light pink sweater with long sleeves and has Bags, her dog, on the leash in every single shot that is shown of her.
Corrected entry: When the Interceptor is trying to escape the Black Pearl, there's a shot of Barbosa from behind. Over his shoulder, there is a pirate dancing quite excitedly on the stern of the ship.
Correction: In the two shots over Barbossa's shoulder, who is himself at the stern of the Black Pearl, the pirate that is seen 'dancing' is actually hopping on one leg on the bow of the Pearl. He is not wearing his wooden leg in these shots. This pirate is portrayed by an individual who really is missing a leg.
Corrected entry: The black, dread-locked pirate with the white cross on his face loses his arm to the Governor in the assault on the Dauntless. The Governor then continues to fight with this dismembered arm, but we later see the same Pirate with two arms when Norrington joins the attack. Am I right, or does a different Pirate lose his arm? And why does no one continue to fight with Swan after after he lops off their arm.
Correction: It is not Koehler's arm that Governor Swann hacks off, it is another unknown pirate's arm. The other pirates are distracted as they fight with the Marines aboard Dauntless and trying to fend off Norrington and his men who are approaching Dauntless from the boats in the water.
Corrected entry: When Jack walks off the plank he has shoes on, when he's swimming down to the bottom of the ocean he doesn't, and when his toe hits a rock he does.
Correction: This is wrong. As 'Jack' (Tony Angelotti) swims down, the silhouette of his boots, especially the top of his boots, are seen. The boots in this shot have a very low heel.

Miss Congeniality (2000)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Gracie-Lou is walking onto the bus on her way to the orientation breakfast, you can clearly see two people, a man and a woman, on the left side of the screen, waving at the camera. (00:35:27)
Correction: The woman in the floral dress and male teenager are simply waving to a contestant on the bus, it's done deliberately. When Gracie is on the bus, two shots later, these same two people can still be seen waving outside behind the bus. These two particular extras can also be seen walking in the background in a few shots, when Gracie gets out of the taxi. This is not a case of civilians waving at the movie camera.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)
Corrected entry: When Aragorn says "you have some skill with a blade" inside the Golden Hall, there are two guys setting a table in the background. The next time you see the table, there's nothing on it.
Correction: The table is not being 'set'. The tapestry is being spread across the table in order to fold it properly. If you look in the background things are being put away all around, in preparation of their absence in Edoras and immediate departure and journey to Helm's Deep.

Miss Congeniality (2000)
Corrected entry: In the Russian Restaurant scene after the head Russian grabs Sandra, his two goons draw their weapons. However, after she fights to get free, one of the Russians draws his weapon again to shoot an FBI agent.
Correction: They are two different men. Ivan and the blonde Russian draw their guns as Krashow holds Gracie. The fourth Russian behind them, who is Ivan's bodyguard, is the one who shoots agent Jerry Grant.

Miss Congeniality (2000)
Corrected entry: After the scene in the Russian restaurant Sandra goes home to her apartment and enters with her glasses hanging from her collar on her shirt. When she come out from the kitchen her glasses are not there, where did they go?
Correction: The glasses are not hanging on her tee shirt when she unlocks her door and enters her apartment. It was only in the previous shot, while still outside the Laika Restaurant talking with Matthews, that her glasses were hanging on her tee shirt.
Corrected entry: When Jack is going to be hung, and Will throws the sword, he is in front of the platform so the sword should have gone through the front of it, but it went though the back.
Correction: The sword went through the front of the trap door and the tip of the blade comes out the back. Standing on the scaffolding Jack faces Norrington's office and his back is facing the parapet.

The Philadelphia Experiment (1984)
Corrected entry: In a scene near the front of the movie, the two main sailors are riding in a truck across the harbor to the ship. In the background is a white ship, the S.S. Savanha, a nuclear cargo ship launched in i believe 1959, or 1960. The scene is supposed to be set in the early 1940s.
Correction: More than one ship bore the name, U.S.S. Savannah. The ship shown is the U.S.S. Savannah (CL-42), a 9475-ton Brooklyn class light cruiser, commissioned in March 1938. She was formally decommissioned in February 1947.
Corrected entry: Just after Jack and Elizabeth are rescued from the island, in the wide screen version you can see a camera man dressing in a blue short sleeve shirt and tan shorts standing a few feet behind Depp to the far left. (01:40:25)
Correction: When Jack says, "If I may be so bold to interject my professional opinion," behind Jack to his right are two sailors. One with a tan shirt with sleeves rolled up above his elbow, and wearing a black band on his wrist. The second, with a blue shirt with sleeves rolled up above his elbow, not short sleeves. The one with the blue shirt has white pants, not shorts, a dark belt and dark hair with a braid at his back. Those two men, tan shirt and blue shirt, have their arms up holding the line leading to the small boat that just rescued Elizabeth and Jack. Even more sailors wearing similar clothes, tan shirts and blue shirts, can also be seen when Norrington boards the Dauntless, before Jack and Will's escape on Interceptor.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Sam and Frodo are on the rock surrounded by lava on the side of Mount Doom, and have finished talking about the Shire and so on, Frodo's left hand comes up to comfort Sam just before the scene cuts away to the next. When it does you see his whole finger in the shot, none of it missing, no blood or anything like that.
Corrected entry: How would Barbarossa have such nice looking apples? He is on a dirty old pirate ship in an Atlantic setting with no orchards within 100's of miles and yet he has such flawless, ripe fruit. Apples are not a tropical fruit in nature. This means that they have to be shipped from other places by ship, if at all. The voyage would take weeks, maybe months for them to arrive. The stories about sailors having scurvy due to the lack of fresh fruit and vegetables is because fruit like apples only stay good for about a week and then start to go bad. They would never last the entirety of the voyage.
Correction: The pirates just pillaged Port Royal, including the well stocked home of the Governor. It makes sense to think that they stole all the delicious food that they now have aboard the Pearl, including the apples, from Port Royal.

Peter Pan (2003)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Smee holds out the box of hooks to Captain Hook, he chooses a double-headed hook and screws it on. A few shots later, the hook has changed back into the single-headed one.
Correction: Captain Hook went to his cabin and when he came back on deck, the hook was single again. We do not need to see him switching the hooks in the cabin, it can be done off camera.
Corrected entry: In the shot where Elizabeth is admiring the medallion (after her dream), she hears her father and runs to get her dressing gown off her bed, knocking down her chair in the process. In the next shot, the chair is upright again.
Correction: While we do see the chair fall over onto the floor, as she reaches for her robe on the bed, the camera never once shows that chair again, in the subsequent shots in her bedroom. That chair has an ornate high back, with a white seat cushion. The chair we see behind Elizabeth as she puts her robe on, is another chair, with a low straight back.

Hollywood Homicide (2003)
Corrected entry: What exactly is Macko arrested for at the end of the movie? They never say what the charge is. I suppose it relates to his investigation of Gavilan and Calden, which was meritless, but I can't think of any specific criminal charge to apply there. Perhaps subordination of perjury, since he made a deal with Lolita Davidovich to testify that she had relations with Gavilan? But then, he'd have to have known that that was untrue, and the cops would need proof of this to arrest him, which was not indicated at all in the scene. They just show up and arrest him.
Correction: He's a dirty cop, all along. He was involved in KC's father's murder.
Corrected entry: Just before Norrington and his men board the Dauntless, if you look to the left of the screen, you can see a sailor fighting absolutely no one. Apparently, the computer graphic experts forgot to add his particular CGI 'actor'.
Correction: This Marine in blue, does have a pirate 'partner', that is shown in the background, behind skeletal Pintel and Ragetti, when they first come on deck. As for the specific shot you're referring to, that is when skeletal Pintel raises his sword and yells out, "Come on! Gaaah!" The marine is duelling with that pirate, who is now hidden behind the ship's red bell housing. You can actually SEE the pirate's sword swing three times, as the Marine swings his. Go frame by frame if necessary.

Peter Pan (2003)
Corrected entry: When Wendy, John and Michael are on a cloud, Michael starts screaming as if he is falling before the cloud he is holding rips completely.
Correction: Michael is a little boy. The cloud he was on was just fired upon by a cannon. He has reason to scream, even though he still grips the cloud.

Correction: The ashtray leaves a reddish bruise, not a large visible purple one, on his right cheek near his eye. The bruise is there in the jail, airport and airplane.
