Black Hawk Down picture

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back picture

Other mistake: During the credits of the movie, after Morris Day points to Jay and Silent Bob, there is an Asian guy jumping up and down at the far right hand corner. The shot switches back to Morris Day and when the shot goes back to Jay and Bob the Asian guy is wearing a light beige hat. The extra submitted this entry himself - he was wearing the hat during the shots. Then after several takes someone in costumes noticed it was a major logo ("No Fear") so he had to take it off. The shot was used before he had his hat on. (01:36:00)

15 Minutes picture

Other mistake: During the part where the two Russians are talking in the restaurant, the guy lights up a cigarette, or is already smoking it. It shows in one scene, the ash on the cig is totally about to fall off. When he is looking at the business card it falls off, then when or about 2 seconds later, they show the guy smoking, the long ash is still on the cigarette.

Not Another Teen Movie picture

Other mistake: In one scene, Janey's brother Cody is being picked on by a group of guys, and Janey is trying to get rid of them. When Jake breaks up the group, Cody throws a punch and accidentally hits Jake. If you watch closely in the next shot, Cody makes the mistake of looking directly into the camera for about a half-second. This is also pointed out by the director on the DVD commentaries. (00:30:29)

The 51st State picture

Other mistake: Just as the Lizard explodes we see Liverpool score, but you can also see that there are no names on the back of the players' shirts. However, every team in the English Premiership must have them. This is probably due to licensing issues but its a mistake nonetheless.

The Score picture

Other mistake: When Brando, Norton and DeNiro are at the table, DeNiro accepts the job and tells Norton the stipulations. When they first begin talking the ashtray on the table is empty, but when Norton is telling his story there is a book of matches in the ashtray, then later they are gone again. Notice, none of the three characters smokes.

Kate & Leopold picture

Other mistake: On the first day at Stuart's apartment Leopold wears some green 19th century trousers he wasn't wearing during his time travel, and which surely weren't part of Stuart's wardrobe. (00:30:05)

She's No Angel picture

Other mistake: In this made for TV movie, there is a front licence plate on a Suburban the Tracy Gold character hitches a ride with. The front plate reads: 2GAT123, a California plate that I have seen in numerous movies and TV shows. The rear plate reads completely different, I believe it was 4BGO468, shown briefly as the vehicle leaves a parking lot.

Valentine picture

Other mistake: When the cherub stabs all the body bags, he finds the one the girl is in then stabs her and blood drains down through the tube. That only happens when the body is on the draining table. Are we to think there was a hole in the bag? And even if there was, there's no way blood could have filled up the bag and drained out that fast.

American Outlaws picture

Other mistake: The camera shows Jesse's "Prison Train" as it comes down the main line and whistles. As the train approaches the camera the driver opens the cylinder cocks and you see the steam shooting out from the front of the locomotive, at ground level. The steam cocks are never opened on a steam locomotive in motion unless the boiler is too full. They are actually there to let condensate water drip out the cylinders while the locomotive is standing idle, and to help the cylinders warm up by blowing warm steam through them. The action shown is equivalent to driving a car on the highway with loose sparkplugs.

Blow Dry picture

Other mistake: When the guy that is hosting the hair competition is looking up at the old train station display board and going through the names of the salons, The Cut Above is on there, even though they haven't entered the competition at that stage. (00:14:40)

Legally Blonde picture

Other mistake: Legally Blonde was shot at a Delta Zeta Sorority house (a Z is very easy to change into an N). Proof of this can be seen in the scene at the beginning of the movie when there is a shot of the entranceway floor. On the emblem of the floor there is a Greek delta and what at first glance appears to be a N. However, if you look at the delta at the proper angle the N is a Z.

Spy Kids picture

Other mistake: Near the end of the movie, Juni watches the start of the Floop's Foogles show. Yet the clock on the TV showed out the time to be 10:15 - 10:20.

American Pie 2 picture

Other mistake: Stifler, Finch, Oz and Jim all have radios. Stifler says during the lesbian scene that they are getting naked. This should have been heard on Jim's radio (he is under the bed), but it is not. We never see Jim turn his radio off as his hands are in shot. (00:43:20)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: It's a bit of a stretch, but maybe Jim had the wherewithal to turn it off (on or offscreen) simply as his radio is most likely to be overheard by the girls themselves, as he Is under their bed (or it malfunctioned somehow, was damaged in the course of all that scrambling about).

La Pianiste picture

Other mistake: When Erika peeps at a couple at the drive-in cinema, the man makes eye contact, jumps out of the car, and starts running after her. We see her running away, but the guy never catches her, although she isn't running very fast and didn't have much of a head start. (00:50:40)

Hardball picture

Other mistake: In one of the games, they show the scoreboard. In two different innings it says one for number of runs. Then they move over and show the total number of hits for each team, and it shows 3 instead of two.
