Wonder Woman 1984 picture

Corrected entry: Wonder Woman says they can't fly commercially because Steve Trevor doesn't have a passport. Except the movie established that only Wonder Woman sees him as Steve Trevor. To the rest of the world he's still the man whose body Steve has inhabited, so there's no reason he can't use his passport.

Correction: In 1989, the earliest date I could find records for, only 3% of US citizens had passports. The overwhelming likelihood is that the real man doesn't have a passport, and given they've spent time in his apartment too, looking for clothes in a montage we didn't see every second of, they clearly also looked around for other relevant information/documents.

Correction: There's no reason to assume the man he is inhabiting has a passport.

Except common sense? The point is she says Steve doesn't have a passport, not thinking about the original body owner having one. Or getting one really quickly.

The percentage of American citizens with passports is quite low. It's far more likely that he would not have a passport than that he would.

Onward picture

Corrected entry: When Officer Bronco discovers the bumper to the van on the path he drives on the path without moving or running over the bumper.

Correction: After the bumper's closeup Colt steps on the gas pedal, and when he turns onto the Path of Peril we can see Colt drive to the left (viewer's left) of the bumper, then drives over some rocks on this rocky path. Colt did not need to move the bumper or run over it, he merely drove around it.

Think Like a Dog picture

Corrected entry: The entire plot is fantasy... I think it is safe to say those things (e.g, amplifying electrical disturbances in someone's brain and using a transmitter to hear that person's thoughts) could not happen.

KeyZOid

Correction: Which is why it's listed as a "science fiction comedy", it's not meant to be real or currently possible.

Whose listing is that? What I find most interesting is that before I submitted my view that it is "fantasy", I looked on-line to find what genre this movie fell under. Most websites listed family and kids, kids and comedy, drama, and combinations. I could not find Lionsgate's official "classification." But NOT ONE website listed "fantasy" until AFTER my submission. This makes me believe it was ADDED by someone. Some websites allow anyone to edit... and make someone else's view no longer accurate. [At least there are ex-post facto laws... and I've committed no crime... or ethical violation - although I'm sure at least someone might disagree.].

KeyZOid

Which is why I never said it's a fantasy genre. You can see it listed as sci-fi on IMDb and Box Office Mojo. Wikipedia, while it can be edited by anyone, lists it as sci-fi but not fantasy. Lionsgate's website doesn't list genres for most of their films. Although "a science experiment gone awry" tell most people it might be a sci-fi film.

I specifically noted to myself that you did not directly state fantasy. I will not reply, so write whatever makes you happy.

Bill & Ted Face the Music picture

Corrected entry: SPOILER ALERT. In Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, Death was able to bring Bill and Ted back to life because their bodies were still fresh and undamaged, and he was able to put their spirits back in. In this film, Bill and Ted, their daughters, Ted's dad and the historical musicians were all vaporized which meant they would have no bodies to return to and would have been stuck in their spirit form when Death returned them to earth. But for no explainable reason, they all come back in human form.

Gavin Jackson

Correction: The bodies were not a factor in their resurrection. The Reaper was also able to resurrect Station, who were a pair of aliens who had no bodies on Earth.

Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga picture

Corrected entry: When Abba sing Waterloo in 1974, it was mandatory to sing in your own language, so they should be singing it in Swedish, not English, like it was in the movie. (00:01:30)

Triviani

Correction: The performance shown in the film is the real one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FsVeMz1F5c. The rule mandating use of national language was only implemented in 1977, and scrapped in 1998.
