Caddyshack picture

Audio problem: When Al Czervik pays the band leader to play something hot, they stop playing slow music and a disco song starts up. The disco song is obviously the original studio recording and not the clubhouse band. The female vocal accompaniments from the recording can be heard, but there were no female vocalists with the clubhouse band. (00:36:10)

Ford v Ferrari picture

Audio problem: During the last scene with Ken, he is talking to Phil, as he jumps into the J-Car. He starts the car and the sound of the car is not that of a carbureted 7.0L (427) V8 (which is what it should be) but the sound from a 2005-2006 Ford GT. This is the car Ford sold for 2 years as a tribute to the GT40. The start up sound with the supercharged V8 (which is in the GT) is unmistakable. Especially to car people. When he's accelerating the engine/exhaust sound changes to the 7.0L (727) V8. (02:18:51)

12 Mighty Orphans picture

Audio problem: During Rusty's conversation with Hardy (about knowing he doesn't want to be at the orphanage), some camera views of Hardy from behind show his cheek (and therefore his mouth) making little and insufficient movement for the words he is saying. In particular, Hardy saying, "Look, you can make me play this little game of yours" and "We done here yet, coach?" didn't show adequate facial movement from a rear angled view. (00:22:30)

Hard Times picture

Audio problem: The very first punch we see thrown in the movie happens when Spencer 'Speed' Weed 's man, 'Chuck Boy', swings at the opponent. It is a wide shot, and even from that distance you can see a lot of light between the haymaker and the opponent's face, but of course there's a thunderous sound as if the guy got socked hard in the mush. (00:05:45)

Audio problem: After Turner tells his son Joey to throw to Engleberg low and outside, Joey replies "But Dad - I wanted to strike him out", however his mouth doesn't move at all and the volume on this line is much louder, so obviously dubbed in.

Rookie of the Year picture

Audio problem: When Henry is at bat, his mother is berating the pitcher. She starts saying you stupid mother... and it cuts to Gary Busey completing the sentence. He says "God damn," but his mouth doesn't match. Chances are he said the f-word but it was changed in post for ratings issues.
