Scary Movie 3 mistake picture

Revealing mistake: A quick mistake happens when Brenda and the girl crawling out of the TV get in a fight. Brenda throws the punch, the other girl falls over, and for a quick second her dress flies up too far and you can see where the makeup (that makes her look dead) on her legs end and you can see her real thigh. (00:25:15)

Revealing mistake: When George comes flying out the window at the club you see Mahalik come out the door below. He then hesitates and moves beside the car waiting for George to say his line. Then he comes into the picture. (00:21:40)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Cindy hits Cody with the end of the sledgehammer, you can see that the hammer hits the clothes behind Cindy rather than Cody. (01:08:10)

Revealing mistake: When Tom comes down to the basement you see him coming down a narrow stairway. Later when Cindy says "there's something on the other side of the door", you can see a shadow walking back and forth behind the door. That shouldn't be possible unless the thing behind the door can walk through the walls in the narrow stairway. (01:00:10 - 01:01:10)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: Right after George turns off the light switch in the cellar you see the light from the film crew fade out as well. (01:00:25)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When George comes through the window at the club he is actually supposed to be thrown out. But he comes running out and there are no people up there who can have thrown him out. There are two guys standing there on each side of the window. They were probably placed there so it would seem like they threw him out. (00:21:35)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Cindy gets to Tom's house and Sue is calling for George, you see Sue and George walking away. You can see in the background that they have boarded up the windows. On one wall the window is blocked by planks, and the other wall has been totally covered with planks and there is sunlight coming through cracks in the planks all over. It is obvious there is no wall behind the planks. Where did the wall go? (00:58:35)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Cindy has parked the car outside the lighthouse you see her open the car door and get out. You can also see the reflection of a building, even though there should be nothing more than a lighthouse out there. (00:51:25)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Tabitha punches Cindy to the floor while in the cellar, right after Cody shouts "Cindy." you can see Tabitha's ear without any makeup on it. (01:08:10)

Revealing mistake: When Tabitha's mother falls off the cliff you see her fall out of view. But when it cuts you see she has landed on a log. Problem is that the log is connected at the top of the cliff. She would fall directly onto it and we would still see her. In fact we would be able to see the log as well. (00:35:55)

Revealing mistake: When Simon Cowell is being shot at, it's an obvious stunt double, and you can also tell the double is wearing a bullet proof vest. (00:17:15)

Hamster

Revealing mistake: When the president's security officer is blowing up the picture of Mother Theresa with a shot gun, it is obvious that the explosion is coming from the outside since all the pieces blow inwards. (00:57:15)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: As George lifts up Cody, prior to him hitting the fan, there is a side shot of George lifing up Cody, and you can visibly see a pale plastic dummy's hand instead of Cody's, revealing that Cody has been replaced by a dummy. (00:39:40)

Hamster

Revealing mistake: When Wilson has uncovered the small Mother Theresa puppets, you can see the table is shaking in order to make them wobble. (00:56:00)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Cindy reverses into Cody after realising she'd left him behind, you can tell the switch to dummy if you pause it in the right place. Also - when the dummy lands after being thrown back, it springs back up, almost hanging in mid-air for a second. It's obvious the dummy is being carried on wires, but without being blatant enough to be a deliberate gag. (00:12:25)

Hamster

Revealing mistake: When Cindy, Cody and Sue have made the hole in the cellar floor and unveiled the well, there is a shot from inside the hole. We see the well and the huge hole they have made. We also see a wooden plank wall surrounding the well with sunlight coming through the cracks. However, if we look up the hole we see a door, and behind that door there is supposed to be some stairs. Because there are stairs, there could not be any sunlight coming through the cracks, since the sun wouldn't shine there at all. (01:07:35)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When the oracle tells Cindy not to worry about the vase you see her bumping into the vase by her side. At the same time you can see the pillar on the opposite side of her moving. Like someone standing beside it accidently bumps into it before dropping another vase onto Cindy's head. (00:40:35)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Mahalik is hitting Brenda, her panties fly off. You can see the panties fly straight up and to the left. The panties land on Brenda's grandmother who is standing on the right. (00:32:45)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: After the hoods' shootout, if you look at the guy lying closest to the camera and the guy on whom the girl is lying, you can see from their jackets that they are breathing. (01:04:50)

Trivia: When Cindy and the rapper guy are fighting the Ring girl, the president walks in and says, "I just want to wish you both good luck. We're all counting on you." and then he walks out. This is a joke from "Airplane" where Leslie Nielsen is the doctor. He says the same line. The reason it is in the movie Scary Movie 3 is because the director of Airplane also directed this.

Question: There is something I have always wondered about spoofs: Do they actually get permission from the makers of the films they spoof?

Answer: Nope. Parodies aren't usually covered by copyright laws as they are generally considered to be as example of fair usage, provided that it can be demonstrated that the copyrighted material was used in a manner that is considered to be a commentary, ridicule or criticism of that material.
