Visible crew/equipment: When Brent is standing in the black crash-landing crater talking to Nova, two of his camera marks are visible behind him: They are made of white tape on the black ground. Seconds later in a wider shot they are gone. (00:10:30)
Visible crew/equipment: A human riding a horse is knocked off into a pile of hay. When the rider lands hay falls off the pile, revealing an air bag. (00:32:44)
Deliberate mistake: There are no lights ever to be found in the underground world and the ceiling is literally the surface's ground, but there is still a perfect level of lighting regardless.
Mendez: Glory be to the Bomb, and to the Holy Fallout. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be. World without end. Amen.
Trivia: A bullet from a rifle Charlton Heston owned was the inspiration for the design of the Alpha-Omega Bomb.
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?
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.
