Corrected entry: When Vincent is going to give Mia the adrenaline shot, Lance fills the syringe with the adrenaline. Yet after the syringe is handed to Vincent, it's obviously empty. (00:57:00)
Corrected entry: When Mia and Vincent are eating at Jack Rabbit Slims, and she returns from the bathroom, she takes a bite out of her hamburger, then we see just a second later that there are a couple of bites out of her hamburger, then it goes back to one bite out of her hamburger. (00:43:58)
Correction: It only looks like the burger has gone back to one bite, when in fact this one bite is a new bite on a different side of the burger (the burger has been rotated). If you look closely you can see the original 2 bites at the bottom of the burger for a couple of frames before the bottom of the burger goes out of view.
Corrected entry: Marcellus Wallace is bound and gagged while being sodomized by Zed. Butch makes the save by killing Maynard and holding the sword to Zed. Marcellus then shoots Zed with a shotgun. However it is never revealed how Marcellus becomes untied. His bonds had to have been good and tight in order for Zed to have his way with him.
Correction: Marcellus was tied up when he sitting down but you cannot actually see his hands until he pumps the shotgun. They would have had to untie him to position him, and the fact there was two against one (and that they had a shotgun and a pistol) would mean there was a good chance they didn't bother tying his hands up again.
Corrected entry: After the whole pawn shop incident, Butch returns to his motel on Zed's chopper. As he parks the chopper, look closely at the window in the background on the right of the screen (widescreen only). You'll see the reflection of someone standing up and walking away. (01:49:40)
Correction: Yes the guy is quite easily seen, but he doesn't look obviously like a crew member, and can be someone living in the motel.
Corrected entry: In the pawn shop, when Butch comes down to the rescue, he slashes the first man, steps in front of him, then stabs him. Zed steps forward and the sword swings up to Zed's face. In the next shot of Butch, it shows him bringing the sword up again.
Correction: Watch this scene twice and it shows the sword next to his face in both shots.
Corrected entry: Jules and Vincent go to get the briefcase and kill three men in the process. When they leave the apartment, however, neither one of them is carrying the briefcase.
Correction: Marvin leaves and gets in the car with them, it's very possible that he was carrying the briefcase.
Corrected entry: After Vincent shoots Marvin "in the face" at point blank range in Jules' car, they go to Jimmy's house for clean-up where the Wolf says "you have a body, minus a head, in a car." Yet when they throw garbage bags into Jules' trunk you see the corpse with an intact head and face.
Correction: Ultimately, the only one that's wrong here is Mr. Wolf, and he was most likely just misinformed. When he says "minus a head" he hasn't yet seen the body, he's just going on what he's been told.
Corrected entry: According to the book, the briefcase in Pulp Fiction was the soul of the character with a Band-Aid on his neck, which explains why there's so much emphasis on the Band-Aid; that's where his soul was taken out. It also explains why John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson did not get shot, and why the briefcase glows when someone opens it and how everyone is amazed when they see what's inside.
Correction: Not true. For an explanation, go to http://www.snopes.com/movies/films/pulp.htm.
Corrected entry: The adrenaline injection scene is loaded with factual errors. First, a nurse's textbook would never contain information about intracardiac epinephrine injections (no nurse would ever perform such a procedure). Second, the instruction to pierce the breast plate in order to hit the heart is erroneous as no needle is strong enough to pierce solid bone. Finally intracardiac injections are only done when the chest has been opened, never through the chest wall (due to the risk of lacerating a coronary artery and causing a fatal heart attack).
Correction: All of these mistakes can be explained because Eric Stoltz could not find the little black medical book, so he had no idea what he was doing. He was winging it, and got lucky. As for the needle going through the breast plate, it is possible the needle went between 2 ribs, missing bone.
Corrected entry: Only in Germany is a McDonald's Quarter Pounder known exactly as a "Royale with Cheese" ("Royal mit Käse"). The closest otherwise is the French or Portugese "Royal Cheese" but Jules specifically mentions Amsterdam, and a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Holland is just a Quarter Pounder with Cheese. Many countries which use the metric system don't bother renaming products that use imperial measures. It's a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Australia, too. Vincent's observation about "Royale with Cheese" being the name of the quarter-pounder with cheese in Amsterdam applies - albeit to Germany, where this has been the official name of the burger for 40+ years.
Correction: He was not talking about Amsterdam, but Paris and in Paris they call it a Royale with cheese.
There is no "Royale with Cheese" in Paris. The French are staunch republicans and wouldn't name any product "Royal." The burgers on offer in McDonalds in France cane be seen here, and there is no "Royale with Cheese" anywhere. Https://www.mcdonalds.fr/produits/burgers.
If they don't use the name "Royal" now, they used to. This is the same page from 2017, using archive.org. Https://web.archive.org/web/20170420100607/https://www.mcdonalds.fr/produits/burgers.
Despite your dubious and unsubstantiated claims (your weblink is broken) that the French wouldn't name any product royal, I have been to a McDonald's in France and ordered the 'Royale Cheese' myself, just so I could say so after PF. You can even see it on the menu here also: https://www.quora.com/Do-they-really-have-a-Royale-with-cheese-on-the-McDonalds-menu-in-France.
I just visited https://www.mcdonalds.fr/nos-produits/nos-burgers as of 12/5/2023, and the first 7-8 burgers listed are called "The Royal", including a "Royal Cheese".
Corrected entry: After Butch leaves his apartment and is stopped at a stoplight, Marsellus stops in front of the car and Butch attempts to escape, in the process hitting Marsellus. When Marsellus stirs, his eyes flutter open once and you can see that his eyes are blue. Except, when he stands up and says, "I'll be damned." it is clear that his eyes are a dark brown. (01:34:55)
Correction: Marsellus is lying on the ground face up, and when his eyes flutter open his irises are still distinctly brown. What you're seeing are the brighter reflections of whatever is overhead, reflected on the two round brown irises (viewed on Netflix).
Correction: His eyes were always brown, they never were blue at any moment of time, and it would be totally strange for director to give the actor blue lenses for unknown purposes. The entry is not only wrong, but it's totally crazy.
Corrected entry: When Butch stabs that fat guy in the pawn shop, Zed stands up real fast and starts to go for his gun. When Marcellus shoots him, we see him grabbing his crotch, and can see that his pants are not even unzipped. How could he have time to zip his pants up?
Correction: Zed's pants are unzipped when he's laying on the ground. It's just difficult to notice since he's covering them with his hands.
Corrected entry: The sign advertising Butch's fight reads, "Coolidge vs. Wilson" and, beneath, "Clash of the Titans". Coolidge and Wilson were formerly opposing candidates in the U.S. presidential race and the slogan was applied to their contest.
Correction: Wilson and Coolidge never ran against each other and no presidential election was ever known as the "Clash of the Titans".
Corrected entry: When Bruce Willis shoots John Travolta John falls back and lands in the bathroom and the door closes. When Bruce goes to open the door we see him put his hand on the blood spot and start pushing the door open, but when we see the door opening from the inside his hand is much lower on the door and below the blood spot.
Corrected entry: Scene when Esmerelda is driving Butch in the Cab: Butch asks for one of her cigarettes, and she complies giving him a smoke and a light with a match. When she lights his cig with the match the flame on the match is still burning. But, when the camera shot changes, to a close-up of Esmerelda lighting the cigarette, Esmerelda's match has gone out, without her shaking the match out, or anyone blowing the match out. How did the match go out? (01:12:20)
Correction: Butch exhales the smoke from his first drag and blows the match out. This is clearer in the uncut version of the scene included in the DVD extras.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Bruce Willis shoots John Travolta, we can see the impact of bullets that hit Travolta on his body between his waist and neck. However, in the next shot when Travolta is in the bathtub, he is only bleeding from around his belly button and the impacts around his chest are gone.
Corrected entry: When Butch is inside the car on the way to/from his flat, first he turns his head to the left showing his sunglasses, next shot, the glasses are gone.
Corrected entry: At the start of the film, when Jules and Vincent are in the apartment, Jules takes a bite out of a burger. For some reason, the burger gets a close up, and you can see it is untouched. When we see Jules take a bite, the burger is already half eaten.
Correction: Jules takes a bite from the side that the student HADN'T taken a bite out of. The close up is of the untouched side that Jules is now eating. When the camera reverts back to the normal view, it is the side of the burger that the student had been eating previously that is now visible.
Corrected entry: When Jules is talking to "Ringo", he says that "Mr. 9mm here" could be the shepherd in relation to his Ezekiel quote, but the gun he's holding is a .45; even Quentin Tarantino points this out.
Corrected entry: When Vincent goes to pick up Mia for their date, he enters the home. Mia, who's watching him on closed-circuit TV, tells him over the P.A. system that she's on the intercom. Vincent asks where is the intercom. Mia tells him it's on the wall. Now, there's no indication of how Mia can hear Vincent's question. So unless Mia can read lips, how could she know what he was saying and respond accordingly? (00:32:25)
Correction: The amount of adrenaline is actually not big, and it's obviously in the syringe, when it was handed to Vincent, half of an inch maybe, but it's there, and the syringe is not empty at all.
