Megamind picture

Continuity mistake: Whenever Megamind or Minion uses the disguise generator, their normal eye colour always show through their disguises, such as when they both disguise themselves as the Warden (the Warden has blue/gray eyes while Megamind has green and Minion has brown). However, during the final battle, Minion disguises himself as Megamind but he has Megamind's green eyes instead of his normal brown eyes.

Yogi Bear picture

Continuity mistake: In the second scene where we first meet ranger Smith he is shuffling with some information pamphlets. When Ranger Jones yells his name he is startled and drops some of the pamphlets, but we can see that the last ones he put in were on their side. When the camera changes shots there appears to be some pamphlets sticking out. Then in the next shot they are gone. The pamphlets change locations between shots.

Gulliver's Travels picture

Factual error: When the people of Lilliput find Gulliver's boat, he picks up his cell phone and says he doesn't have any signal but has 11 messages and proceeds to listen to them. If you have no signal at all, you wouldn't be able to check your voice mail.

Red (2010)

Red picture

Factual error: In the very first shot of the movie, a clock is shown ticking. The time on the clock reads 05:59:56. It is obviously AM because a few seconds later at 06:00:00, Frank wakes up as if it was morning. As Frank sits up, clear daylight is visible outside of the window. This scene is supposed to be set during winter. We know this because there are many Christmas decorations. Since this is meant to be winter, it should still be dark at that time of day. (00:00:40)

Suggested correction: At the beginning of the movie it's September or early October if latest in the year. At Cleveland's latitude there's enough sunlight at 6am to experience such lighting through a window facing south.

First, what in the film places the opening scene in Sept or Oct? There's too much snow on the ground for it to be either of those months (it doesn't snow in September and rarely in October, but only late October). Second, even if it was set in October, the sun doesn't rise until around 7:30AM or 8:00AM.

Bishop73

I disagree. I think what Bishop73 wrote above is correct. The opening scene at 6:00 AM showed daylight, which would be too early for October, November, and December in Ohio. The movie apparently begins in December based on the amount of Christmas decorations in the neighborhood. Sunrise might be between 7:30 - 8:00 AM and twilight is about 30 minutes prior to sunrise. It simply would not be that light out at 6:00 AM.

When in Rome picture

Continuity mistake: When Beth is chasing after a poker chip, she ditches her high heels to run faster, after passing by some statues. However, this is shown to happen in front of a car art piece. The art piece is above the statues, so she couldn't have ditched her pumps in the way shown in the film. You can even see her discarded heels in an aerial shot by the car, and above the statues. Most likely, they shot a scene where she kept her heels on while running, and another where she tossed them off, and combined it. (01:15:21 - 01:15:42)
