Corrected entry: When the lightning hits the bridge as the friar crosses it, there is no real rain on the bridge, but a split second later, the bridge is inundated as if it had been rained on for minutes. (01:41:15)

Van Helsing (2004)
Corrected entry: In the scene where the viscous fluid surrounding the syringe is used against the grating to create an escape route, the fluid (acid?) acts faster than anything on Earth, dissolving the grate in a second or two only, but it doesn't seem to release any toxic vapours from the reaction as shown by the unaffected actors.
Correction: It's never mentioned what the liquid actually is, therefore we have no idea if it should release toxic vapours or not.

Van Helsing (2004)
Corrected entry: In the scene where the friar crosses the bridge and strikes in front of him he is unaffected. However water is a great conductor of electricity and he would surely have been electrocuted.
Correction: Contrary to popular belief, water is only a great conductor of electricity if it has a salts dissolved in it. Pure water, i.e rain water, is a poor conductor of electricity. Considering the fact that the rain would only form puddles, and not a continuous waterway, at most the friar would have felt a slight zap or tingle, nothing serious.

Van Helsing (2004)
Corrected entry: In the scene where the vampire brides first attack the village, Van Helsing shoots ones wings full of holes, but her flight is uninterrupted. Surely she would have lost altitude or crashed, whilst her wings healed.
Correction: Dracula's wives were beasts with powers granted by the Devil. Since they can ignore gravity while walking on walls and ceilings, it's not to great of a stretch to say that her flight was not entirely dependent on the integrity of the wings.

Van Helsing (2004)
Corrected entry: In the scene where the syringe containing the werewolf antivenom is held in the viscous liquid, surely the liquid which is shown to be more than highly corrosive, (by the way in which it chewed a hole in the metal grating) would have dissolved the metallic syringe parts, even if it left the glass component undamaged.
Correction: The metal bits looked like gold to me, and gold reacts with nothing except for mercury.

Spider-Man (2002)
Corrected entry: The scene where Spidey saves the baby from the fire, why is the "mother" in the street when her baby is in the apartment unattended? The baby appears to be only a few months old and if she had been out, wouldn't she have taken it with her? Her clothes and face are clean and not smoke smudged so it's unlikely she was forced out by the fire.
Correction: It is possible that both the baby and mother were in places that were fairly safe from immediate danger, (like the mom in the living room, the baby in its crib down the hall) however there could have been a hallway that was too smoke or flame filled for the mother to get through to the child.

Underworld (2003)
Corrected entry: Selene discovers the new UV bullets and gives a clip to the weapons master. Given that the technology to build the bullets is brand new and has not been seen before by either vampire, how is it possible for the weapons tech to build large quantities of silver nitrate bullets in the space of the few hours within which the story framework exists? Probably without even the basic munitions components being available.
Correction: Considering the resources of the vampires and the obvious experience of the Armorer, it would not take more than a few hours to recreate the new rounds. Bullets with a hollow Lexan nose filled with shot are readily available already. These rounds would not be really any different.
