Clue (1985)

Corrected entry: Each of the murders is committed by an assailant wearing black gloves. Did each character bring them? Were they left behind then re-used for each subsequent murder? And they are all identical.

Macalou

Correction: All of the murderer's actually did not glove their hands before committing the murder. The murderers were depicted with gloved hands so we cannot see whose hands they were. This was done so viewers are left in suspense until the end of the movie.

Braveheart (1995)

Corrected entry: After the Englishman slits Murron's throat, he wipes the blade, but there wasn't any blood on it.

Macalou

Correction: Wiping the blade after using it was likely something he did as a reflex.

Corrected entry: The reading from Thoreau invoked at the meetings is read out of order and misquoted.

Macalou

Correction: That may be true, but remember that Keating wrote that quote in the poetry book back when he was a student at Welton. He admitted to the kids near the beginning of the movie that back then he was an intellectual "weakling," so it's understandable that the quote is not entirely accurate.

Clue (1985)

Corrected entry: In the kitchen after they find the cook's body, Prof. Plum is quizzing Mrs. Peacock about when she dropped the knife. She is indecisive about whether it was before or after she fainted. She faints when Mr. Boddy falls out of the bathroom onto her which hasn't happened yet. (00:35:53 - 00:38:32)

Macalou

Correction: She was most likely referring to when she fell onto the couch, screaming, when she thought the brandy was poisoned. She came quite close to passing out in shock then, so it's not surprising that she would describe it as "fainting" even though she didn't actually faint.

Corrected entry: When Charles is getting his letters returned to him, presumably by McLeod as the viewer is led to believe, you can see that the address he is sending them to lacks a zip code.

Macalou

Correction: Mail CAN be forwarded or returned without the zip code. It just takes longer, as it must be hand sorted.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Zoe unexpectedly brings Julian home from the farmer's market, it appears that Erica is already setting a table for three guests. Why? She didn't know Julian would be joining them.

Macalou

Correction: If you look closer, you can see that the third table mat is sitting in the middle of the table and that she skips it when sitting down the utensils.
