The Scorpion King (2002)

Correction: It's actually impossible to say. The arrow has a very slim tip and is never strongly lighted from the time Mathayus takes it out until he fires it. While there is no blood running down the shaft, this would be expected with the wound slanting down into Mathayus' back (the blood would go down his back).

The Scorpion King (2002)

Corrected entry: In the desert, when the guards go into a cave, the angle changes and you see two sets of rocks, then several guards fall into quicksand. When their leader "says stay on the rocks," the shot changes, and more sets of rocks appear.

Correction: The number of rocks is consistent through the shots. Most of them are harder to notice because they are around the edge of the room and out of the light.

The Scorpion King (2002)

Corrected entry: When Mathayus falls down the water hole with the sorceror he drops his sword. But when he is figting with the king's army he has the exact same sword. How did he get his sword back?

Correction: Mathayus favors certain styles of weapons. He also carries many spare weapons on his camel. It's not unreasonable that he keeps a spare version of his favorite sword in case the first one got broken or lost.

The Scorpion King (2002)

Corrected entry: Towards the end, when Mathayus walks into the rebel camp, you can see a cameraman in a white t-shirt and black cap. He is crawling towards Mathayus.

Correction: There are a few different shots this could refer to and I watched them several times. In none of them did I see a person in a white t-shirt and black cap crawling. I did see many white-and-black goats.
