The Towering Inferno picture

Other mistake: During the scenic elevator rescue scene, a helicopter lowers the Fire Chief down to connect a cable to the top of the elevator. The cable is seen to be hanging no more than three feet from the side of the building. If this were the case, the helicopter's rotors would be hitting the building. (02:04:10 - 02:06:10)

The Godfather: Part II picture

Other mistake: When young Vito Corleone shoots Fanucci in the chest at the doorway to his apartment, in a continuous shot, a wound/blood bursts from Fanucci's white vest. When Fanucci proceeds to tear his vest open seemingly in disbelief he has been shot, there is no entry-wound, blood or hole in his white shirt directly under where the wound appeared in his vest.

Zardoz picture

Other mistake: The extras in the shot where Zed pulls the cart through the courtyard of apathetic are the same extras used in the shot where he pulls into a barn. Even if they could move, that's awfully quick. These people are supposed to be zombies. (00:38:00)

The Man with the Golden Gun picture

Other mistake: At the end when Bond returns to the bedroom after the glass bottle fight with Nik Nak he says "hope you got all the glass out of the bed" but he just walked across the room in bare feet without a care in the world, which was completely covered in broken glass. Goodnight didn't have enough time to clean this up aswell in the time given.

Juggernaut picture

Other mistake: When Sir Anthony Hopkins (playing Johnny McLeod) is awaiting the arrival of the suspected bomber O'Neill (played by Cyril Cusack), a funny mistake occurs. Cusack sees Hopkins, smiles and greets him with a cheerful "Hello, Tony!" instead of "Hello, Johnny!" Being a pro, Hopkins doesn't blink an eye!

The Longest Yard picture

Other mistake: At the start when Crewe's girlfriend says "don't you take my Maserati" Crewe says he has earned it. He then goes out and gets in a Citroen, not a Maserati. Also, a Citroen front license plate appears on the car shortly afterwards which wasn't there before. (00:03:57)

Suggested correction: The Citroen SM model has a Maserati engine.

That doesn't make it a Maserati. Citroën bought Maserati in 1968, but their badge determined the brand, not what engine was in it. A lot of car companies are owned by other car companies to have multiple divisions in their lineup. If someone has a Toyota and called it a Lexus, they'd be wrong, just like it's wrong in this case.

Stardust picture

Other mistake: When counting out Adam Faith in the boxing match, the referee counts 1 - 4 in Spanish then (with his back turned to camera) adds 'cinque' - Italian. I suspect this was dubbed post-production because the location of the scene was in Spain and the actor Spanish.

Celine and Julie Go Boating picture Celine and Julie Go Boating mistake picture

Other mistake: When Celine (as Julie) meets up with Guilou in the park whilst he is sitting on the bench, a man in a suit with a briefcase can be seen walking past in the background, who looks at the camera a couple of times while walking past. (00:45:50)

The Conversation picture

Other mistake: In the dream sequence, Harry knocks on the door of the hotel room that is mentioned in the conversation. When he later goes to the hotel in real life, we see the hotel room doors and the numbers on the doors, and the doors are exactly as they were in Harry's dream. Unless he was familiar with the hotel, how would he know these details in his dream?

Murder on the Orient Express picture

Other mistake: The opening montage shows the news story of the kidnapping of the Armstrong child unfold through newspaper articles. The kidnapping takes place in April 1930, but next to the headline of The Police Gazette about the getaway car, you can read a headline (incidentally, from a magazine with the name of the victim in place of the publication's name) that says "Snow-covered Rocky Mountain states feel first winter blasts." First winter blasts, in April. (00:03:45)

Airport 1975 picture

Other mistake: As the rescue copter is lowering down the pilot, it can be seen flying above and in front of the jet so he can enter into the hole above the copilot seat, but passengers looking out of the side windows of the plane can see the copter and that the first guy fails? Not possible.

Young Frankenstein picture

Other mistake: When Dr. F. is introducing the Monster in the theatre, he says, "as incredulous as it seems." "Incredulous" means unable to believe. The word he should have used is "incredible", which means unable to be believed.
