Erin Brockovich picture

Audio problem: In the scene where Erin is climbing down into the well at the plant, and then climbs out and runs away from the workers, she runs to her car, gets in and starts it. The sound of her starting the car is that of her cranking it over once, then trying again. The second time she cranks it over, her hand isn't on the key, its going down to the shifter.

King Arthur picture

Audio problem: When the Woads attack in the beginning of the movie, after the knights have pretty much won the day, Bors hold up his fist knives, sticks out his tounge, and yells a sort-of war victory yell which sounds rather comedic. At the end of the movie when the knights and their horses charge into the Saxons out of the fog, you can hear Bors' exact same yell once again.

Suggested correction: This isn't a mistake. First the cannons never went off immediately as evidence by the fact that after the initial battle when tributes were killed, they don't go off until Katniss got away. Then 6 went off in a row. The people in charge of the games decide when they go off. Plus, after Rue is killed, the audio cuts from all sounds of the arena for dramatic effect. The cannons could have gone off then. Or they could have gone off during the District 11 riot.
