Dracula Untold picture

Other mistake: When Vlad is in the armory of the monastery, he is standing directly under sunlight. This should have caused his skin to burn immediately and give away that he's a vampire. (00:52:05)

Whiplash picture

Other mistake: In the final scene both at the start when Fletcher is walking on stage and in a shot during "Caravan," just after Andrew mouths FU, when Fletcher puts a hand under his jacket the shot goes forward and then immediately shows the same footage in reverse. (01:27:55 - 01:32:45)

Unbroken picture Unbroken mistake picture

Other mistake: At end of movie where there are captions describing how the lives of everyone turned out, for Louie it says "after years of SERVERE PTSD..." instead of "severe." (02:10:25)

Fury picture

Other mistake: The Tiger tank wouldn't have burst from cover after picking off one Sherman. Why would it when it could stay put and pick them off as they approach? Even in 1945 when recruits weren't always well trained, the German Wehrmacht didn't give Tigers to newbies. (01:17:10)

Other mistake: When Ethan shoots gas at the black SUV where the Italian accountant is, the two bodyguards faint instantly, Ethan wears a mask to avoid that, but the accountant never faints, and keeps awake and screaming all the time.

Annie picture

Other mistake: Will's rating increased by 5% because he saved Annie from being run over. A guy happened to be filming it happening and uploaded it online, but the uploaded footage is shot from two different angles.

The Theory of Everything picture

Other mistake: When Stephen Hawking's life is played backwards and then rewinds at the end of the film, the sequence of his sudden illness at the concert and subsequent operation at the hospital are the wrong way round. It should show him having the operation, then winding back to his collapse at the concert, but the two events are in the wrong reverse order.

Gone Girl picture

Other mistake: When Amy cuts Mr Collins' neck while they are having sex and Amy is underneath him, not a drop of blood falls on her hair. Before she climbs off the bed, we can see a ring around her neck, above it, no blood, and below it, buckets full of blood.

Veronica Mars picture

Other mistake: Spoiler... When Stu Cobbler (Martin Starr) is revealed as the murderer, he goes to Gia's apartment to kill Veronica. Upon entering, Cobb has to disable an alarm with a digital touch pad, requiring the use of his fingers. However, he uses the metal barrel of the gun.

Suggested correction: Touchscreens don't need human skin to work. Capacitive touch screens just need something conductive (that's how touchscreen styluses work), and metal is conductive (albeit likely scratching the screen). But you also get resistive touchscreens, which simply detect pressure, and anything works on them.

Outcast picture

Other mistake: Prince Shing and the King have a conversation that lasts not less than 5 minutes of movie (which compresses the time somewhat; groups of people get in and out of the large hall, which wouldn't be instantaneous and happens at least 3 times). The conversation happens while the other members of the royal family are running away through a secret passage. With such a considerable head start and wasting no time (they keep moving even when they put mantles on), they are reached by heavily-armored guards, through the same secret passage, within seconds. (00:12:10 - 00:17:10)

A Merry Friggin' Christmas picture

Other mistake: The clock on the kitchen wall was at 5:03 PM when Donna asked, "Where the heck can they be?" After an outside scene and returning to the kitchen, the clock was still at 5:03 when Donna said she couldn't find her camera. The battery in the clock could have been dead, but the display time was what could be expected around dinnertime (suggesting the clock was supposed to be in working condition). The "non-advancing" clocks seem to be a common occurrence in movies. (00:10:20 - 00:11:18)

Other mistake: In the captions at the end of the film, describing what happened to Alan Turing between the end of the war and his arrest, his name is spelt 'Touring'. In the next caption, it is spelt 'Turing'.

Stonehearst Asylum picture

Other mistake: During the dinner scene we see Finn pour Newgate a drink. Newgate then goes to drink from it when Eliza kicks him so he spills it. However due to the width of the table this should be impossible.

Boyhood picture

Other mistake: Mason Sr spends time with Sam and Mason every other weekend. After going to the Butterfly Center, they tossed a football and ran around (playing tag?) a while before going to the Houston Astros vs. Milwaukee Brewers baseball game. The limited footage of the game in the movie (which included Astros #16's home run) was adequate to identify it as the 4/17/06 game that started at 7:07 PM... on a Monday (not over the weekend). (00:39:45)
