Revealing mistake: When Brent is attempting to get the reins for the horses after escaping his wheeled cell, you can see a second set of reins going through the wooden holes to where a driver is hidden. When he gets the fallen reins, the second set is no longer there. (00:38:00)

Revealing mistake: When Ongaro is pushed up against the spikes on the cell bars, the spike against his neck is shown wobbling like rubber. (01:18:50)

Casual Person

Factual error: James Franciscus arrives at a New York City subway station called Queensborough Plaza. Queensborough Plaza is an above ground station. Queens Plaza is the name of an underground station in New York City. (They are located within walking distance of each other, but are definitely distinct stations). (00:40:30)

Question: When Taylor investigated the rocks, he aims the butt of his rifle at the rocks and then he fades through the rocks and he vanishes. What exactly was the cliff he fell through? Was it a hologram or a mirage or something?

Casual Person

Chosen answer: The mutated humans (the ones with the bomb) have telekinetic powers and projected the image into Taylor's mind, the same way they did with the fire with the apes.
