Toolio

Corrected entry: When the royal party enters the McDowell house near the end, the rose bearers don't precede them inside, nor do they go with the king as he visits the girls' bedroom. They are supposed to throw roses beneath his feet at every step he take.

roboc

Correction: They don't always throw the petals. Akeem no longer wanted them to do it and they stopped. The King could have told them to not throw them while inside the McDowell house.

Wimbledon (2004)

Corrected entry: When Kirsten Dunst is watching Colt on the TV at the airport, we see her watching him on a Panasonic portable DVD player (the price and name of the item is visible next to the screen.) How could she be watching TV on a DVD player?

Correction: You can buy TV tuner cards for even DVD players at your local electronics store that receive signals.

Toolio

Corrected entry: When McClane and Zeus are climbing down the cable towards the ship, if you notice in one shot they are wearing gloves and in another shot they are not.

Correction: Zeus is the only one wearing gloves and he is wearing them throughout the scene. McClane is using an old shirt to protect one hand while another one has neither a glove nor a shirt.

Enter the Dragon (1973)

Corrected entry: Williams has supposedly made love to three of Han's prostitutes, but when he gets out of bed he's still wearing his underpants.

Correction: It's possible he put them on afterwards. One of the prostitutes was already out of the bed and brushing her hair and was dressed.

Toolio

Corrected entry: In the scene where Brian and Toretto pull in at Little Saigon with Tran's gang, you see Tran take off his helmet, his cousin Lance and everybody else. As Lance gets off his bike and holster his weapon, you see a female biker standing next to him, but as Lance gets his weapon and points it at Brian, she disappears. She appears and re-appears from shot to shot. (00:27:34)

Correction: The girl was far away enough from Lance that she wasn't seen in the shot. No mistake there.

Toolio

Corrected entry: In the shot when Dom arrives at the first street race, you see him open his door to get out. The volume level of his car stereo increases, and after he closes the door it decreases. In fact, the driver's window is down the whole time as you can see Dom's fingers curl through the window frame to close the door. The volume level should have remained constant.

Correction: Not necessarily true. Many cars have speakers built into the driver's and passenger side door and when open will sound louder than closed as the bulk of the sound is no longer being directed to the inside of the car.

Stand By Me (1986)

Corrected entry: In the scene where Gordie "notices" the leech on Vern's neck, he was in no position to see it, as he was being held in some sort of neck hold by Vern, with Vern directly behind him. You can see Gordy turns his head to somehow make us believe he can see the leech, but it would have been physically impossible.

Correction: He said that to divert his attention to his neck. If you remember right after Gordie says that, Chris says "no Vern, there IS something on your neck".

Old School (2003)

Corrected entry: In the clips during the credits when Mark drives the car off of the bridge to avoid being hit, it lands on Dean Pritchard and then blows up. Meanwhile, the car Mark almost hit is nowhere to be seen. (01:27:50)

Conine

Correction: The shot of the car falling on the Dean was from a ground view.

The Simpsons (1989)

Skinner's Sense of Snow - S12-E8

Corrected entry: All the children have time to run out of the classroom, put their coats, hats, scarves and gloves on (which are probably in their lockers) in the time it takes for Skinner to open the blind on the window. There is no way they could have done this in such a short space of time.

David Mercier

Correction: Take into consideration that this is a cartoon and things are sometimes faster than real life. Also do you think Homer can survive several falls down into Springfield Gorge?

The Burbs (1989)

Corrected entry: When the Klopeck's son comes out on the porch for the first time, there is a scan shot of the neighborhood from his point of view. Missing across the street is the Army guy and his sexy wife who are shown gardening in front of their house in the subsequent shots.

Ral0618

Correction: During the scan, you can see the Rumsfeld's across the street. They are behind the flag pole in their front yard.

Duel (1971)

Corrected entry: When the truck is turning round to give the school bus a push, you can see the children and the bus driver outside of the bus, but seconds later, the children and the driver are on board the bus when it is being pushed by the truck.

Will

Correction: As the truck is turning around, the children are lined up and the driver is motioning for them to get back on the bus. It's just a little hard to see since the dust clouds.

Toolio

Corrected entry: If the Predator ship can land on the surface and Predators can just walk out, then why did they send the first ones in landing pods?

Correction: The predators use the pyramid as a training ground. Dropping them off in pods and letting them trek through the snow and locate the pyramid is part of the training program.

Toolio

Correction: The Asian guy is not an actual champion street racer. His name is RJ De Vera and he is a developer of RO_JA wheels for race cars.

Toolio

Correction: Not a champion Street Racer. He worked on cars and had his own custom shop. He also now works for Meguiars HQ. Attends car shows in his SLS AMG.
