Other mistake: When Rowan Atkinson is riding in the train, near the end of the film, he is looking out the window. He is looking forward, then quickly looks backwards. He does this several times in a row, as if trying to see things quickly as the train passes them. But, when the camera pulls back, Rowan's back is facing the direction the train is moving, thus he was looking the wrong way! You can tell by the way the scenery is moving as you look through the window. (01:28:05)
Suggested correction: Has the person that entered this or the other people that have agreed with it watched the film? Rowan Atkinson is sat the right way round, and everything is correct here.
Other mistake: The bus driver (Marty) was a pretty large guy, so how come when Owen is wearing his clothes, they fit perfectly? Surely they would have been baggy?
Suggested correction: Hey, don't "fit perfectly," as is evident when he removes the oversized clothes later in the movie.
Factual error: The bullet that was fired and travels next to the rocket car defies the laws of physics. Assuming that the bullet was fired parallel to the ground, the bullet should remain in the air for the same length of time as it would take to drop the bullet from the same height. The bullet in this scene remained in the air for a much longer period of time.
Suggested correction: This isn't how physics works. Bullets, or any object actually, that is propelled somewhat horizontally will stay in the air for much longer than it would take for it to drop to the ground. This is easy to prove for anyone at home. Get two objects and throw one horizontally and simply drop one vertically.
That is exactly how physics works. In fact, this was proven centuries ago. Unless there are aerodynamic forces in play, gravity will affect both objects the same, and they will fall at the same rate. I suggest you try the experiment you proposed yourself. (Just make sure you are not giving the thrown object an upward arc.) I just tried it myself with two pens. They both hit the floor at the same time three out of three times.
