Corrected entry: *Spoiler* After Kirk is irradiated when realigning the reactor core and Spock visits him at the reactor door, they place their hands on either side of the glass. Spock forms the Vulcan salute ("V" sign) which is visible after Kirk's hand slides down in the shot from Kirk's side of the glass. The next shot is from the outside (Spock's side) and Spock's hand remains flat against the glass but no longer in a salute.

Corrected entry: After the Vengeance has crashed into Earth, Spock is chasing Khan and at one point they run across a street and we see a car brake suddenly to avoid them. When the camera view changes to a street level view we can see some pedestrians walking past the car and they can be seen passing through the front of it, showing that it was added using CG.
Correction: It is very clear that these people walk past in front of the vehicle. Further evidence (now) shown in the making-of's show that a vehicle wrapped in green material was actually used in these shots, so the only part of the car replaced would be an area they'd avoided in real life anyway.

Corrected entry: The Vengeance may have been an advanced model of starship, but it was ultimately made with comparable materials as other ships. Having 72 torpedoes detonate within the hull should have (or nearly) destroyed the entire ship instead of just blowing a hole in the side of its hull. The strength of its advanced shields would be irrelevant from the inside of the ship. (01:39:25)
Correction: They are not 'full strength' torpedoes. It is revealed that those devices are nothing more than containers of the ancient incubation chambers. Each with a small explosive device designed to destroy its contents and not do major damage to external property.

Correction: Both shots from inside and outside show Spock's hand in the V salute. At no time has Spock removed the salute.
