Revealing mistake: Near the end of the movie, when Maverick's plane is about to be launched, there is a quick closeup of an F14's nose gear, which is quite obviously not hooked up to a catapult or anything else.
Revealing mistake: The "blower" on the yellow Firebird never runs. NO wonder he couldn't beat the Wraith. (00:44:10)
Revealing mistake: When Terry dismounts the bus, people on the street look over at the camera. (00:03:20)
Revealing mistake: Since they used an original game, the Monopoly's box is yellowed, whereas it should look almost new.
Suggested correction: Yes, there were Monopoly boxes of that colour, that's not yellowing at all.
Revealing mistake: When Duckie is showing off on his bike, you can see its not Duckie but his stunt double.
Revealing mistake: When Egg Shen helps the others escape by using a crossbow-and-winch device, he fires the bolt into a stone. When the bolt digs in, the stone shudders slightly (since its made of wood or plastic, and no fixed part of the floor).
Revealing mistake: When Daniel and Kumiko first see the storm coming near the end of the film, the wind outside is blowing the trees sideways. They open the door to run out and the camera shows what is outside. The trees there are not moving.
Revealing mistake: When Howard's running from the female bikers, Satan's Sluts, look closely at one and you can tell it's a guy in drag, one wearing a dark blond wig. (00:10:00)
Suggested correction: I was in this part of the movie, everyone in this scene (except for the duck) is female.
Revealing mistake: A farcical comedy movie does not need to have the most realistic action, but when the protagonists' Volkswagen Thing gets shot down by Turnip's double barrel, the engine 'explodes' with real flames and all, but no bullet holes at all in the metal. It's like it died from being scared. Fun part is, later the detective shows up at Spence's house and mentions exactly bullet holes. (00:28:25)
Revealing mistake: When Norman drives Dukes car into the pond, it's obvious no one is in it.
Revealing mistake: When Eddy's mother is lying dead on the bed, she is breathing.
