Corrected entry: If the northern hemisphere is going to freeze over, what is the reason behind the people from the southern states of the USA as well as the President and Vice-President only going as far as Mexico?

Correction: The entire northern hemisphere doesn't freeze, only the temperate region. The southern states get colder but don't freeze, and there's no reason to compound the difficulty of a mass migration by moving people farther than necessary.

Corrected entry: In L.A., when the janitor removes his headphones after the tornado, his shadows do it a little bit before him.

Dr Wilson

Correction: The shadow is properly synchronized, but the light on the man is from below so it makes his hands look like they're higher than they actually are. Therefore it looks like his shadow hands reach his ears before his real hands do, but it's an illusion.

Phoenix

Corrected entry: After the Japanese businessman was on his phone, he runs to a nearby gate trying to escape the ice storm. He grabs the gate with both hands empty. After he is knocked out by the ice, a closeup shows his phone sliding out of his hand.

Coconut

Correction: He grabs the gate with his left hand above the shot, so we can't be sure it's empty. In other shots he was holding the phone loosely in his palm and thumb, leaving his fingers free to grip.

Phoenix

Corrected entry: In the opening scene when the ice shelf starts breaking away, there is equipment on both sides of the crack. When the camera starts pulling away there is no equipment anywhere, just the actors.

Cliff Corson

Correction: There's equipment all over the place. What you are mistaking for the actors is actually a crawler and tents on the left side. The actors can barely be seen at all, they're the black spot next to the left side of the crack.

Phoenix

Corrected entry: When the camera zooms out after the Antarctic splits, the crack is far smaller than seen in the previous shot.

Craz

Correction: It's all relative. The crack was perhaps 3 meters wide when Jack jumped it and it increases by another meter or so before the wide shot. In the larger shot, the crack is still about the same size compared to the very tiny humans and their equipment.
