The Hunger Games: Catching Fire picture

Other mistake: The old man executed in District 11 was shot in the head from behind. However, when Katniss looks out the window from above there are no blood stains on the floor, nor is there a gunshot wound to the head. (00:20:50 - 00:22:30)

Frozen picture

Other mistake: Anna is shown from the front as she ascends an ice staircase inside Elsa's ice castle. There are giant ice pillars to Anna's right and left. They should reflect the side of her face, but instead the reflections show her face from the front.

Suggested correction: That's not how reflections work. The ice walls are about two feet to her side so the reflection would look like it was shot from the front but about 4 feet to the side.

Suggested correction: Those were ice walls, not the pillars.

Even if that's the case, the mistake remains valid.

White House Down picture

Other mistake: After the sprinklers go off in the White House, none of the actors' clothes are wet. With the amount of water sprayed, all of them should have their clothes stuck to their bodies. (01:25:00)

Olympus Has Fallen picture

Other mistake: At the end of the movie, when the president gives a speech, Mike Banning's face still shows the unhealed cuts from his fights at the White House, suggesting that this is only a couple of days or so after the event. However, the President, who was shot in the gut and on the verge of dying, is completely recovered.

Fast & Furious 6 picture

Other mistake: Dom drives his Dodge Charger out of the Antonov's cargo hold - which is filled with, well, cargo - through the nose of the plane which was already on fire while he was still in it - and yet there isn't a single dent on his car before he loses control and rolls it.

The Wolverine picture The Wolverine mistake picture

Other mistake: Wolverine shields Yashida from the blast, burning off all his hair. Somehow his pants manage to remain unaffected by this, as seen later when they are climbing from the pit.

World War Z picture

Other mistake: When the family's car is being hit by the ambulance, we see Gerry's head bouncing around by the impact in a close-up. Camera angle is from inside (approximately from the centre armrest). We see out his window, and there is nothing there. The camera angle changes to an exterior shot, and its clear that the position of the ambulance hitting the car should have made the ambulance visible from the interior camera. (00:08:05)

R.I.P.D. picture

Other mistake: The red Dodge Charger plows through a locked metal gate as they are going to make the bust on the meth lab. Moments later, you see the front on the shiny red Charger, and there is not a hint of a scratch on the paint, despite going head on through a locked metal gate moments before. (00:06:55)

Pacific Rim picture

Other mistake: In the scene from Mako's memory, the terrified little girl stops crying and smiles when Pentecost emerges from the Jaeger's head/cockpit. But if the Jaegers are 250 feet tall, how could she possibly have seen him? It's not kneeling when she looks up at him.

A Good Day to Die Hard picture

Other mistake: Komerov gets shot in the arm at the start of film, however, he is able to use his arm perfectly even straight after being shot. (00:34:30)

Iron Man 3 picture

Other mistake: When Tony's house is destroyed by the Mandarin, watch closely when Pepper is blown through the air, just before Tony attaches his suit to her - she's very obviously wearing high-heeled shoes that would make it impossible for her feet/ankles to fit correctly into the suit without them being crunched up by the suit's boots. But later on, when she gets out, if you listen, you can hear the "clicking" of her unbroken heels as she runs around.

After Earth picture

Other mistake: When the ship begins to crash, Cypher Raige tries to calm Kitai down and is violently pushed to the far left by the force of the ship accelerating. However, less than a few seconds later, the camera shows that to Kitai's right, the force is now tearing the back end of the ship apart and sucking people outside. This is contradictory because the massive air current resulting from the ship's acceleration would have either sucked everyone, including Cypher Raige, outside, or it would have pushed them inward, which we see with Cypher Raige. There is no way for the force to suddenly change directions within the same area of the ship.

Riddick picture

Other mistake: The trip back on foot from the nodes for Johns was way too fast, and he likely would not have had enough ammo to handle the entire trip back. From Riddick's perspective, John's left, he cauterized his wounds with some explosive debris, fought several creatures and then ascended the hill continuing to fight creatures. By the time he hit the top of the hill, Johns had made the entire trip on foot, which was long by bike, had Dahl join him, locked in the node, and piloted the ship back to Riddick.

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox picture

Other mistake: In the flashback of Bruce Wayne getting killed, his mother is cradling his body and weeping. She has his blood all over her hand from touching his wound. She rakes her fingers across his shoulder and down his chest with her bloody fingers, leaving no trail of blood, but when she places that same bloody hand on her face it leaves blood all over her face and mouth. (00:35:05)

The Lone Ranger picture

Other mistake: When the Lone Ranger is on the roof of the train he shoots at Fuller, who is uncoupling the carriages. He looks back at the train and shouts something - at this point the two trains are on a bend and The Lone Ranger is just coming into view, making his shot at Fuller impossible.

Oblivion picture

Other mistake: When the alien drone is deciding whether to shoot or not, the screen showed that the operation system was in English. It should be in an alien language or have no language.

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

Suggested correction: The drones are maintained by the Techs. The Techs speak English. So the drones have an English OS (and surely no alien language, which would be traitorous to the story in the brains of Jack and Vika).

Elysium picture

Other mistake: Near the beginning, Max rises and prepares to leave for work, the only scene in which we see his bare torso. As he moves toward the camera through some rather odd under-lighting, it is obvious that his six-pack abs are airbrushed.
