Corrected entry: It seems odd that Ben Grimm is able to get the storm machine set up all by himself. It has been made evident, more than once, that he isn't very knowledgeable of scientific matters.

D2: The Mighty Ducks (1994)
Corrected entry: Why would the Iceland players and coach talk privately with each other in English? Living in the San Francisco Bay Area I know a lot of people who speak English as a second language, and they very rarely talk to each other in anything other than their native tongue.
Correction: This is a typical plot device so that the audience can understand what is being said without the benefit of subtitles. There are scads of movies set in foreign lands, for example, but all the characters speak English because the movie was filmed by English speakers for English speakers.

Zoolander (2001)
Corrected entry: With all of Derek's talk about not being able to turn left, he does it pretty easily towards the end (before the significant left turn). After he does his series of backflips to get back to kill the PM he lands and does a quarter turn immediately to the left.
Correction: He doesn't mean he's physically incapable of turning left, he means his runway modelling left turns are not the supermodel quality of all his other moves. It's like a famous portrait painter might say he can't do landscapes - he can do a landscape better than 99% of the population, but he not happy with the way they turn out.

That Thing You Do (1996)
Corrected entry: In the hotel gift shop Faye says hello to Lamarr, calling him by his name before he introduces himself to her. And she acts like she has never heard his name before.
Correction: It's not Faye that says hello to Lamarr, it's the store clerk. Then, he introduces himself to Faye.

Love Actually (2003)
Corrected entry: Why doesn't Emma Thompson acknowledge her brother in the airport at the end of the movie? Surely she must have known that he would be there that day (given that he is the Prime Minister and her brother).
Correction: She has already moved away from the gate at this point so she wouldn't have seen him then. Also, she may not have know what time he was arriving at Heathrow.

Correction: Since the plans were lying all over the place, there was a good chance Ben could make it work. Whilst he is not incredibly scientific, he isn't stupid (he did after all work for NASA).
