Hannibal picture

Audio problem: A mistake with one of the audio tapes: They mixed the dialogue of two scenes in Silence of the Lambs, you can hear Lecter saying "you have not more vacations to bargain" which happens in the cell from which he escapes, and following that sentence asks "what it will be? quid pro quo, poor Catherine is waiting" and other lines that are from the scene when Lecter is still at the glass cell, the first time Clarice gives him the fake offer from the Senator. (00:37:06)

Wasabi picture

Audio problem: When Hubert and Yumi agree that Hubert will tell her if he finds out anything, they shake hands. However the clap sound of their hands grabbing each other isn't entirely in synch. (00:40:00)

From Hell picture

Audio problem: Near the beginning of the film Katie Eddowes tells Mary Kelley 'There's one over there'. As she walks past Martha Tabram and Annie Chapman, we hear some dialogue between them about not having very much luck that night. If you look at all three women, their mouths are not matching the dialogue. They appear to be saying something completely different.

Osmosis Jones picture

Audio problem: In the scene "By The Throat", After Osmosis goes down the escalator. The red smoke starts to go around them. Osmosis moves his mouth with no sound, but not until a couple seconds later when the shot changes do you hear what is that cherry stench. (00:20:37)

Suggested correction: I'm watching it and the scene is synced just fine. As soon as Jones opens his mouth, you hear him say "what is that cherry." Then the shot cuts to Leah and you hear him say "stank."

Bully picture

Audio problem: When the kids are watching the Dr. Dre and Eminem music video on TV, you can hear the song disappearing and reappearing in the background. Some parts of the song are heard multiple times. Plus when you hear the music off screen the "bad words" aren't edited out, like they are in the shots with the TV screen.

Audio problem: During the dinner scene, when Daryl is imitating Freddy and quotes, " Aint that some sh*t!" and also when he quotes, "You aint representin'!" his mouth isn't moving with the words.

The Score picture

Audio problem: Nick uses the periscope camera through the grate of the basement floor. There is first a shot of the camera poking out and that is followed by a shot of a hand-held screen accompanied by a camera zoom sound as he zooms. Generally the zoom sound would come from the camera itself rather than the screen and a camera that size is not likely to make a electronic zoom sound of that amplitude. (00:43:20)

Super Troopers picture

Audio problem: When Arlo (Thorny's Son) is riding along with Ramathorn and Rabbit, in the very beginning when he's saying "Come on dad, Dad." his lips aren't moving.

Saving Silverman picture

Audio problem: When Diamonds in the Rough are playing there is a point in the song where the guitars a strummed quickly and then abruptly stopped. The sound of the strumming stops and Wayne stops strumming, but J.D. is still strumming. We should hear his continued strumming but do not. (00:06:55)

Spy Game picture

Audio problem: When Harry Duncan calls Muer at his house in the opening of the movie you can see that he is talking on a cellular phone in an elevator, yet when he hangs up (you hear it from Muer's end of the line) you can hear the sound of a phone receiver being slammed down. Cellular phone calls end with a polite little beep, there is nothing that makes a physical noise like that. (00:09:05)

The Fast and the Furious picture

Audio problem: In the first hijacking scene, where the Honda Civic darts under the trailer, you hear the car shift up 3 times. Each time, it pulls high revs, yet the Civic doesn't move forward (at one point it almost goes under the rear wheels of the trailer) or crash into the back of the main tractor unit. Surely, with the performance of these vehicles against a laden truck, shifting up three times would have caused it to hit the tractor unit. (00:02:39)

The Mexican picture

Audio problem: During the failed kidnapping attempt at the mall, Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made for Walking" is playing over the mall sound system, and the song is badly edited to extend it for the duration of the scene. In the actual song, Nancy Sinatra famously says, "Are you ready, boots? Start walkin'!" only once. But, in this movie's chopped-up version, she says it twice.

Heist picture

Audio problem: When Mickey asks Joe "don't you want to hear my last words?" we hear the sound of a pump shotgun being racked, but Joe has a double-barreled shotgun - there wouldn't be any cocking sound.
