Mars Attacks! (1996)

Other mistake: In the English DVD subtitles, during Jason Stone's reporting at the landing, his line about "many" is mistranscribed "may". (00:35:00)

Dark Angel (2000)

Rising - S1-E13

Other mistake: In the English DVD subtitles Sebastian says, "In direct combat, they're is no warrior equal to the Red Series." "They're" should be "there". (00:24:00)

Predator (1987)

Other mistake: When the Predator sees Billy on the log bridge, there is a cold blotch in the middle of Billy's chest. He's not wearing anything that would make such a hole in his heat signature - it should be the same color as the rest of his torso. It doesn't even match up with the cut he made across his chest; the cut starts much higher than the blotch and the blotch is irregularly shaped, not indicating the smooth line of a cut. (01:15:20)

Suggested correction: The cold area is the blood running from his wound. It is cooling down on contract with the air.

Smallville (2001)

Redux - S2-E6

Other mistake: Krissy's mutant aging reduces her to dust and ash within seconds. Oddly enough, it takes her non-mutant clothing with her. (00:36:45)

Suggested correction: First off, we don't know what gave her powers, there's nothing to indicate a mutation. Second, we see beams of light or heat shooting out of her, indicating she's more than just rapidly ageing like her victims. Her body seems to be burning, turning her and her clothes to ash.

Van Helsing (2004)

Other mistake: Van Helsing's ring fits his as a human, but in the climactic fight he turns to werewolf form and back and is still wearing it. He didn't have time to take it off and put it back on, so either one of his wolf fingers should be horribly, painfully cramped or the ring should have broken. No one insinuates that the ring has magical powers of any kind to prevent this.

Monsters, Inc. (2001)

Other mistake: In the scene where Mike and Sully walk in on the CDA overrunning the power company, there is a CDA agent with number 00112 behind the main desk, and another with the same number talking to the boss a second later. (00:35:10)

Hellboy (2004)

Other mistake: All the time that Abe has been underwater reading multiple books at a time, he's never designed a machine to turn the pages? Even a pointer on a long arm would work serviceably. (00:19:50)

Donnie Darko (2001)

Other mistake: Cherita has a speech impediment: instead of saying "shut up" she says "chut up." This is also reflected in the subtitles every time it happens EXCEPT at the bus stop, when it reads "shut up." (00:15:40)

The Mummy (1999)

The Mummy mistake picture

Other mistake: Evie traces the marks on the inside of the coffin lid to show how they were made. Problem is, there are five parallel marks that all line up with each other. If they were really made be fingernails, the thumb mark would have been different from the finger marks. (00:56:20)

Paycheck (2003)

Other mistake: Several times, Jennings sees himself being shot on the catwalk, and each time there is a closeup on the flying bullet as it travels toward his chest. But in the following shots, as he falls to the ground, there is never any indication of a wound where the bullet should have hit. The time viewer is always perfectly accurate and bases its predictions on the determined actions of the present, not theories of what actions could take place in the future. There is no way the time viewer could simply be omitting this detail.
