Rat Race picture

Other mistake: When Rowan Atkinson is riding in the train, near the end of the film, he is looking out the window. He is looking forward, then quickly looks backwards. He does this several times in a row, as if trying to see things quickly as the train passes them. But, when the camera pulls back, Rowan's back is facing the direction the train is moving, thus he was looking the wrong way! You can tell by the way the scenery is moving as you look through the window. (01:28:05)

How High picture

Other mistake: When the guys find out that they've passed the THC test, Jamal turns to Silas and asks if they're still high on the ivory. At the moment he asks, an elf walks across the room.

Super Troopers picture

Other mistake: In the shot where Ramathorne is at the gun range, about to shoot Mac in the bullet proof cup, he is talking to Foster and Rabbit about how they are going to get in to the Spurbury Police Lockup. If you watch him draw his gun, he moves his other hand down to chamber a bullet, the sound effect is heard, but he never actually pulls the action back on the gun.

Holiday in the Sun picture

Other mistake: In the beginning, the girls arrive at the airport in Chicago and you can see a billboard in the background. Then the credits roll and they land in the sunny Bahamas and as they are driving away in the limo, the same billboard can be seen in the background. Guess they were on a tight budget and had to computer generate the snow over a scene filmed in the Bahamas.
