World War Z

Continuity mistake: After the Mexican family lets Gerry and his family into their apartment, they sit down on the couch. As Gerry leans over and kisses Rachel's head, Karin's hand is over Connie's left shoulder. The angle changes and suddenly Karin's hand vanishes. (00:17:30)

Continuity mistake: In the scene after the plane crash, Brad Pitt is hanging by the waist with his face towards the ground and blood dripping from it. When he looks up, there are blood trails running down his face rather than towards the front of it. The blood trail should be going from the cuts toward the front of his face, not towards his chin. (01:20:45)

Continuity mistake: As Gerry is handing his daughters a plate of pancakes, he says "You mean a stuffed animal puppy? 'Cause that we can do." As he says this, the camera angle changes and suddenly one of the girl's hands can be seen up in the air together almost in a praying position. The camera cuts again and her hands are back down. (00:03:55)

Continuity mistake: As Gerry enters the ship's command centre the first time, when he starts walking across the floor, we see a bearded man in the background, at the stairs against the wall, talking to someone. The camera angle changes, and he is now sorting through papers perhaps 60-70 feet from where he was just standing. (00:30:30)

Continuity mistake: Three times through the movie, we see the command centre on the ship with people running around. Based on several people's movements, it seems that all these scenes were taken at one time, from different angles - too many of the same people moving the same way, carrying the same things.

Continuity mistake: When Brad Pitt is changing the dressing for the female Israeli soldier on the Belarus plane, the man in the seat next to her appears, disappears and re-appears.

Continuity mistake: Lane is in Jerusalem talking with the Mossad officer just as the zombies are about to cross the wall. In all shots from the front, the left side of the Israeli's face is bathed in sunlight while the right side isn't. In shots from the back, the entire right side is now bathed in sunlight. (01:00:00)

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, the two girls open the door to their parents' room. Karin's pillow is in the shadow. Sunlight suddenly appears on it just as the two girls are about to jump onto the bed a few seconds later. (00:03:25)

Continuity mistake: Just before the motorcycle cop smacks their car's mirror off, Gerry says to Karin "You're not British anymore baby." As he does, she raises her coffee cup to her face in the frontal shot. It then cuts to an angle to show him, and suddenly her arm is down, where she raises her coffee cup to her face again. (00:06:05)

Trivia: Peter Capaldi, the new Doctor Who for 2014, is listed in the credits as W.H.O. Doctor. Just a fun coincidence, as the roles are too far apart to have been planned, but worth a look.

Question: On the plane, as Gerry is wrapping her stump and right after he admits he hadn't known cutting her hand off would work, Segen says something quietly, then adds "Now I'm just a liability." What does she say right before "Now I'm just a liability"? I can't hear what she says (it might not be English) and it's not in the closed captioning or in any transcript I've been able to find online.
