Corrected entry: In the last race, Chick rams The King so that he flies through the air and rolls over on the grass. And in the shot where the camera zooms out when McQueen is braking, Chick isn't visible between McQueen and The King. This would mean that crashing is faster than driving.

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Corrected entry: Because this movie was shot in 3D, all of the kicks and punches are real. For instance, the scene in which Alice kicks Bennett's gun away had to be done over and over again. So much so that his hand was black and blue when the final take was made. Ali Larter even broke a finger during the shooting of the film.
Correction: The punches and kicks are not "real". As Ali herself said in an interview, "...learning how to do the stunts, because you can't cheat anymore. You have to come within an inch of someone." Note within an inch, not hitting the other person. Ali sprained her finger, not broke it. If anyone's getting hit for real in the stunts, it's because they misjudged the distance to come close to hitting the other person. Paul Anderson also confirmed that the stunt people have to come closer to hitting the other person than with conventional 2D movies, but any hitting of the other person was accidental.

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Corrected entry: Bennett holds Alice at gunpoint when she confronts Wesker, well out of range. But after she kicks the knives towards Wesker, he moves a lot closer since she is able to kick the gun out of his hand immediately.
Correction: This was moat likely done deliberately for the sake of 3D, plus Bennett could have suddenly moved closer to Alice as she kicks the knives towards Wesker because it startles him. He's working for Wesker and someone has suddenly launched some knives at him, it's obviously going to make him a bit nervous.

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Corrected entry: When the group plummets down into the elevator, they are stopped by the water, and everybody gets soaking wet. But when they stand in the shower, all of them are completely dry.
Correction: The group were not completely submerged in the water; it was only waist-high. These two scenes also take place before and after the Tower Swing scene, giving them time to squeeze the water out of their clothes and hair.

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Corrected entry: In the scene just after Bennett had left the group, they are standing on the edge of the roof. When the infected start coming onto the roof via the stairwell, Alice starts firing at them. Note the sparks on the barrels. Alice has been proven to be an very capable marksman in previous movies, so these sparks are just for effects, rather then something that makes actual sense. (01:01:20)
Correction: Even master marksmen miss on occasion. I've been at target shooting competitions where the winner missed the target completely on a couple of shots.

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Corrected entry: During the aerial shots of L.A., we can see how the building are badly damaged because of fires raging inside of them. But when a building rests on a concrete elevator shaft, the concrete would turn into sand because of the heat, and if it was a steel structure, that would lose all of its strength and collapse anyway.
Correction: Buildings don't always collapse in a fire no matter the structure. See Madrid skyscraper fire pictures which show a skyscraper burned out, but still standing. (If you can get past all the conspiracy theories.).

Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)
Corrected entry: During the opening fight scene, Alice tosses her katana in to the head of one of the security guards. It sticks out of the head very. However, the tip of the sword isn't visible at the back of his head, while it's very clear that the sword is long enough to come out the back. This means that they just taped half a sword to his helmet.

The Matrix Reloaded (2003)
Corrected entry: During the scene in the 100 Agents fight, Neo has a pole which you can hear whistling in the air. However, this is only possible if the pole is open and hollow, which is not the case. Both ends of the pole are closed (best seen in the shot after the agent hurled into the air lands) and the flexibility (best seen when Neo kicks the pole into an agent) suggests that it is a solid stick.
Correction: The flexibility has nothing to do with anything since this is the matrix were buildings ripple like a pond when helicopters crash into them. The pole only needs to be open on one end to whistle, and it is. Even if it wasn't, again, this is a computer program simulating real life, not actual real life where real physics apply.

Friends (1994)
Corrected entry: Rachel says, "I'm Kip", and Joey asks who Kip is. Rachel answers that Kip lived with Chandler before he did. How does Rachel know this? She was the last to move and had little contact with Monica between college and the pilot episode.

Correction: They were going around a corner, which the king cuts diagonally across. Chick still has to drive around the circuit, traveling a longer distance.
