Other mistake: Just as the preacher finishes stitching up Jake's wound, a shot rings out from the street, and everyone goes outside to find Percy Dollarhyde drunk and shooting up the town. Percy is right-handed but holsters his 6-shooter revolver on the left, and this appears to be his only sidearm. Even if he did carry another 6-shooter, that wouldn't explain how he fires 13 shots in this scene without reloading.
Cowboys & Aliens (2011)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Jon Favreau
Starring: Harrison Ford, Sam Rockwell, Daniel Craig, Olivia Wilde
Continuity mistake: During the film, Daniel Craig's character rides out to the house where he last saw the woman he was in love with. During the wide shot showing him on his horse riding toward the camera, the device on his wrist is missing. It is obvious if you are paying attention, as he is using the arm which is supposed to have the device to hold the reins of the horse.
Col. Woodrow Dolarhyde: I want that man! You give him to me now, or I'm gonna take him!
Trivia: When the sheriff tears Daniel Craig's wanted poster off the wall in the jail, underneath there's a wanted poster with a photo of a mustached Jon Favreau (the Director).
Question: Colonel Dolarhyde mentions about having participated in the Battle of Antietam and losing men in the Cornfield. Did he fight for the Union or the Confederacy?
Answer: I was unable to find any reference about which side Dollarhyde fought for in the Civil War. It may have been deliberately left ambiguous to make his political alliances more neutral, and instead, focus on his personal character and how it evolves during the film.
