Factual error: The opening scene of the Skyview collapse takes place on May 16, 1968, according to a newspaper clipping about the tower being closed for repairs as a result of Iris' premonition. During the vision, when the first bodies fall from the sky, the parking valets are listening to "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" on the radio. However, that song was written for the movie "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" and wouldn't be released until October 1969.
Continuity mistake: The green Alfa in the opening minutes has its side, and mirror, wiped out by a lorry. For the next 5 minutes it then drives around in perfect condition. (00:05:43)
Continuity mistake: During Marty's drive to the bogus address, when he is done speaking with Monty, just as he says, "Wolf out!" he pulls the phone wire and the earpiece actually pops out of his ear, but in all of the following shots that earpiece is still in his ear. Since the super-glued earpiece is one of the main plot points, this is bizarre to say the least. (00:44:25)
Trivia: SPOILERS: Director Todd Phillips has defended the controversial ending, in which it is revealed that Arthur is not the Joker who would go on to fight Batman when he is stabbed and killed by another inmate, who then carves a smile onto his face. Phillips noted that the two films were called "Joker," and not "THE Joker," and stated that Arthur was the person who inspired the real Joker—presumably the inmate who killed him. However, this explanation was poorly received by fans, who felt duped.
Question: Are the people present at the digging site when they're discussing new approaches to analyzing skeletons supposed to be paleontologists in dr. Grant's group? If so, why would they laugh at his musings of "how dinos learned how to fly"? And why would he have to explain it to them? Seemed to me like he is explaining very basic stuff to the people that would already know this (and of course, to the movie audience).
Continuity mistake: When Finn is going to an escape pod to run away, he puts his pack down in front of it, seen again in a later shot. When Rose realises he's trying to run away, his pack has moved itself inside the pod.
Plot hole: During the scene where Merida gives her speech on "breaking tradition", her mother, as a bear, moves silently behind the majority of the crowd, so they don't see her. Fair enough. However, Merida and her father's clan are all looking in the same general direction (towards the crowd) while she's speaking - how does no one from Merida's clan see a bear moving at the back of the room?
Continuity mistake: During the archery constest, in one scene Prince John has a ring on his right paw with no jewel, then all of a sudden the jewel appears. a few scenes later he has three rings on that paw, and later he has no rings at all.
Alita: I do not stand by in the presence of evil.
What movie is this quote from? Might be obvious, might be obscure... Take your pick and see how others did!
Revealing mistake: When Cap is driving the blue Chevrolet Silverado with Black Widow, the gear shift is in the up locked position, not lower on the column, indicating the truck was towed in the scene. (00:54:45)

Answer: They are not paleontologists, just people interested in dinosaurs. It is common for museums and other scientific organizations to offer the general public an opportunity to participate in a real paleontology dig. For a fee, they become an exhibition team member for a period of time, learn about dinosaurs, help excavate fossils, and so on. This is likely how Dr. Grant (or his institution) supplements his research funding.
