John Carter picture

Factual error: John Carter, while gold prospecting in 1868, is arrested by members of the 7th Cavalry, with the intention of employing him to fight the Apache in the Arizona and New Mexico Territories. Unfortunately, in 1868, the 7th was otherwise employed in Kansas and Indian Territory forcing the Cheyenne, Kiowa, and Comanche tribes back on their reservations.

John Dies at the End picture

Factual error: When Dave shoots Justin 8 times, he empties the magazine of his semi-auto handgun, but he continues pulling the trigger, and the gun clicks several times. Semi-auto handguns do not "click" when they are empty, because it's impossible to pull the trigger. Also, the slide of Dave's handgun does not lock in the open position when the magazine is empty, as it should.
