Terminator Salvation picture

Other mistake: When Marcus, Kyle and Star are at the petrol station, a flying HK and the giant Harvester robot are able to appear just outside without making any kind of sound. In every other scene of the Harvester and the HKs however, they both make an incredible amount of noise. (00:37:40)

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince picture

Other mistake: In quite a few shots during the film, it is much too obvious that there are no lenses in Harry's glasses, whereas in previous and following shots the glasses have lenses. A couple of instances are: when Harry drinks the Felix Felicis and when Harry kneels beside Dumbledore, at the foot of the Astronomy Tower.

Other mistake: While flying the helicopters, notice that the human pilots are not wearing protective masks in an open cockpit with the cargo doors wide open as the Avatars are either hanging out of, or staining to see past the pilots.

Baloney. The movie made several egregious errors involving the use of masks. In several scenes you see them not wearing masks in human form including going into the lab at the floating mountains. Everyone including Trudy should have been dead within minutes.

Land of the Lost picture

Other mistake: Due to the gait of the T-Rex, its head moves rather significantly when it walks as seen throughout the movie. However when it approaches Dr. Marshall with the laser in its teeth, the laser is steady and able to pinpoint a line up his head in a very steady manner which would not have been possible.

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra picture

Other mistake: When Ripcord flies the black jet toward the White House, he decides to ascend to the atmosphere to rid the craft of the nanomites. As he flies toward the lawn and up the air, he narrowly misses hitting the balcony, where an agent shields himself with his arms from the jet. At such a close distance and at that incredibly fast speed, the agent would have been pulled in by the jet's wake and thrown up in the air. (01:39:45)

Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure picture

Other mistake: When Tinker Bell constructs a boat with the playing cards paddle wheel, she uses a clip and a rope to make sure the paddle wheel doesn't start turning. However the rope would only work at stopping the rotation if the wheel turned backwards. Since it turns forward, the rope shouldn't be able to stop the rotation.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen picture Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen mistake picture

Other mistake: In one of the beginning scenes, the time at the bottom says that it is 22:00, which means it would be 10pm in China. In the scene, it is bright daylight, not night time as it should be. (00:02:15)

G-Force picture

Other mistake: If you watch very closely at the end, when Hurley is found beneath the rubble, Blaster lets go of the heavy steel box that was on top of Hurley before Darwin actually pulls Hurley free, so Hurley should have really been dead.

Race to Witch Mountain picture

Other mistake: On the desert road with the 3 black SUVs coming from behind, Jack says he will let them pass. As he slows down, a shot of the speedometer is shown, where you can see the gear indicator is in neutral.

Star Trek picture

Other mistake: When the Kelvin is about to impact Nero's ship, the countdown, in seconds, goes from xx.00 to xx.30. Meaning the fraction of the seconds start at .30 when they should start at .99.

Up (2009)

Up picture

Other mistake: The Spanish version has all the titles and signs changed to Spanish text as we can see when Carl opens the photo album. However, a side angle shows the letters 'O' and 'D' revealing it's the original English text, "Things To do."

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus picture

Other mistake: When Anton is swinging below the bridge to rescue Tony from his hanging, he bumps into him. At that moment, Heath Ledger opens his eyes, breaking character for a split second.

Dragonball Evolution picture

Other mistake: The history in the world of this movie does not have to follow our own (after all, in Toriyama's creations we have dinosaurs roaming the Earth, and talking animals), however the opening narration talks about how "thousands of years ago" Piccolo bringing our "peaceful planet" and "the HUMAN RACE, on the BRINK OF ANNIHILATION." The movie is set in 2010-ish (Goku has a poster of the "Pazu United" football team, year 2010), and turns out from later dialogue that Piccolo is coming back after 2,000 years. The implausibility of a nearly world-ending global catastrophe happening barely 2,000 years ago and being completely erased from history (nobody remembers Piccolo and everybody laughs off the notion of an invasion around that time) is astonishing, but even admitting that, the opening crawl briefly shows warriors in full plate armor, definitely out of place for circa the first century AD. Everything about the narration leads to a very far back mythical pre-historic past, so when later it turns out it's" just" 2,000 years ago, it makes no sense.

9 (2009)

9 picture 9 mistake picture

Other mistake: When 1 strikes off 2 (I think) from the calendar we can see that 1 is Wednesday, 2 is Thursday, 3 is Friday and that 4 is Saturday but 5 is Monday; meaning that Sunday has no date.

Santa Buddies picture

Other mistake: After the Santa Buddies arrive and sing at Santa's workshop, it shows the town's Christmas tree magically light up and the sheriff runs out of and around the building to see it. There is freshly fallen snow, but no foot prints from him, or paw prints from the sheriff dog. (01:05:40)

Wonder Woman picture

Other mistake: When the Amazons interrogate Steve they don't know the meaning of the word "crap" yet they know one of the definitions of the word "rack."

Suggested correction: Just because they understand some slang, doesn't mean they should understand all slang.

Quantom X

Well if they're an ancient race then how do they know of the use of the word rack regarding female anatomy? One of them went out into the modern world and learned this? Hera tell them this? Maybe they got internet or a modern dictionary?

Rob245

Well obviously they know stuff about the modern world. Diana could speak Dutch fluently, not Old Dutch either, but modern Dutch. So they do get information or else she wouldn't have known that. This would include slang.

The Pink Panther 2 picture

Other mistake: Inspector Clouseau concludes Miss Solandres was the thief by looking at her license plate and discovering he gave the car a fine 2 days before she claimed to have arrived in Paris, 1 day before the Pink Panther was stolen. However she told Clouseau her car was a rental moments earlier, therefore he should've assumed the fine applied to the previous renter as Clouseau had no reason to doubt Miss Solandres' story at that point. (01:10:00 - 01:25:00)

Inglourious Basterds picture

Other mistake: At the very beginning, the first cut to Mr Lapadite he has an axe in his hand, ready to strike (and we heard two strike sounds before), but there is no log to cut. (00:03:17)

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

Suggested correction: He is cutting the stump. We see him actively cut it too, not only ready to strike.
