Visible crew/equipment: Right after the argument between Archie and Ron you see for a second the silhouette of a cameraman rushing by in front, almost covering the whole screen. (00:09:10)
Three Kings (1999)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: David O. Russell
Starring: Mark Wahlberg, George Clooney, Ice Cube, Cliff Curtis, Jamie Kennedy, Spike Jonze, Nora Dunn
Factual error: It is said in the film that Ice Cube's character works in an airport in Detroit. When the scene shows Ice Cube at work as a baggage handler, there are mountains in the background. There are no mountains in the Detroit area. (00:14:10)
Archie Gates: You're scared, right?
Conrad Vig: Maybe.
Archie Gates: The way it works is, you do the thing you're scared shitless of, and you get the courage after you do it, not before you do it.
Conrad Vig: That's a dumbass way to work. It should be the other way around.
Archie Gates: I know. That's the way it works.
Trivia: George Clooney and director David Russell got into a fist-fight when Clooney objected to the way Russell was treating some extras. In a moment of frustration, Russell lashed out and began berating the extras and Clooney stepped in to defend them. Later, Russell would say that he wouldn't make another movie with Clooney for $20,000,000.
