Corrected entry: Drax is supposed to be a completely literal character. It is explicitly mentioned and played for laughs several times, he also tried to make a metaphor supposedly for the first time and it is called out. However, he speaks metaphorically twice: once when he refers to his enemies as "paper people" and when he refers to Gamora as a whore. The people he is fighting are not actually made of paper, and I doubt he believes Gamora is accepting money for sexual favors.

Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers (1993)
Corrected entry: When Wallace is backing out of the spare room, leaving Gromit to continue decorating, he accidentally bumps into Feathers. But if you look when Wallace is backing out, Feathers is not there and he was not seen walking up to the room; he just appears.

Dexter (2006)
What's Eating Dexter Morgan? - S8-E3
Corrected entry: Deb's boss hands her a water bottle infused with some nutrients to counteract her hangover which she is shaking in her right hand when Dexter comes into the room. When Deb gets up to leave with Dexter, she no longer has the water bottle, nor is it on her boss' desk. It has disappeared.

Pretty Little Liars (2010)
Corrected entry: During the scene with Hannah and her mom in the kitchen talking, it switches from day to night outside between a single shot.
Correction: Just watched this scene. You can see the sun slowly begin to fade between the two shots, meaning that something is blocking it. The scene is still in the daytime.

Firefly (2002)
Bushwhacked - S1-E2
Corrected entry: When discussing the Reavers, Shepherd Book has a cord sticking out between the back of his shirt and the back of his neck. It seems to be an audio cord but could be a part of his pony tail as well. Whatever it is, it's definitely out of place during the shot. (00:22:00)

Alien 3 (1992)
Corrected entry: How did the stowaway facehugger impregnate the dog (or ox, depending on which version of the movie) after it had already impregnated Ripley with the Alien Queen? Alien 1 & 2 had already established that facehuggers die shortly after impregnating a host. Not only would it be impossible for the same facehugger to impregnate 2 hosts, but it should have died after impregnating Ripley.

Scream (1996)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Sydney gets to school and is talking to Gail, the clip that she wears in the back of her hair is silver, but in the next scene when she is at her locker with Tatum and Stu, the clip is brown.
Correction: I just watched this and Sydney is wearing a black & brown leopard print clip in the back of her hair throughout BOTH scenes.

The Tuxedo (2002)
Corrected entry: When Jimmy is holding the shot glass to Del Blaine's noise with the queen bug in it, his first punch at one of the attacking henchmen causes him to remove the glass several inches from her face which would have let the bug escape.
Correction: How is this continuity? The bug stays there the entire time, regardless of the glass moving.

The Walking Dead (2010)
Chupacabra - S2-E5
Corrected entry: After Rick, Lori, and Shane leave the sick room where injured Daryl is recuperating, Rick walks off and Shane tells Lori his only concern is for her and Carl's safety. As Lori responds to his statement, in a near whisper, she calls him 'Jon' (the actor's name) instead of his character name. (00:36:25)
Correction: I just watched this scene myself and at first it does sound like she says, "You've been abandoning us a lot, Jon." But then I turned on the subtitles. She actually says, "Even abandoning a lost child?".

The Big Bang Theory (2007)
The Monster Isolation - S6-E17
Corrected entry: When Leonard tells Sheldon to hand over his Nintendo DS, Sheldon gives him a shiny aqua console. The Nintendo DS has never been produced in that color: the console is actually a 3DS, not a DS.
Correction: Semantics. To most people, "DS" is sufficient enough to specify all of the Nintendo DS consoles. The same way that "Xbox" is sufficient enough to specify the Xbox 360.
25th Mar 2013
The Big Bang Theory (2007)
The Robotic Manipulation - S4-E1
Corrected entry: In a conversation with Penny, Sheldon says "Progidy" instead of "prodigy". Definitely not a mistake he'd make. (00:19:50)
6th Mar 2013
Pretty Little Liars (2010)
Will the Circle Be Unbroken? - S3-E22
Corrected entry: Spencer asks E. Lamb questions about the employee IDs at Radley throughout the episode. In response to one he says he has worked there since he left the Navy, implying it's been a long time. In the previous episodes we find out that Toby used the alias E. Lamb to get in and out of Radley. Since the real Eddie Lamb has worked there for a significant amount of time it doesn't make much sense that the Radley employees wouldn't notice an entirely different person using the ID, or that they wouldn't question a visitor with the same name as an employee.
Correction: Who says anyone who worked with E Lamb still works at Radley? They could all be new employees who never met him.
23rd Jan 2013
Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Corrected entry: The Umbrella testing floor in Tokyo triggers a biohazard test that causes clones of civilians to reenact a scene from Resident Evil: Afterlife. Alice seems to recognise the event, despite not actually being present for the scene in Afterlife.

Scream 4 (2011)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Jenny is trying to crawl under the garage door, the door is shut on her and we hear a sound that is supposed to be her bones breaking. If her back or spine were broken, she wouldn't have been able to crawl forward and fight the killer (and if her back was broken, she would have immediately passed out). It should be the garage door closing sound we hear, not a "bones breaking" sound.
Correction: Since we do not know for sure the extent of her injury, it is impossible to tell whether she'd still be able to fight the killer or not. People have also been known to be fully conscious for a short time after having their backs broken.

The Cabin in the Woods (2012)
Corrected entry: Once the characters have all arrived at the cabin in the woods, there is a scene during a game of "Truth or Dare" where they all enter the basement. During that scene, Jesse Williams' character "Holden" magically acquires glasses that he was not wearing at any point prior. From that point on, throughout the remainder of the movie, his glasses disappear and re-appear multiple times. Most notably, in the scene where three of them attempt to flee through the stone tunnel in the RV.
Correction: Just because someone wears glasses that doesn't mean that they need to wear them all the time. He may only need them for reading, and he has plenty of opportunities throughout the film to take them off and put them on.

The Thing (2011)
Plot hole: Through this film (and its predecessor) it is established that the creature imitates its victims perfectly, having all of their knowledge and memory. At the end, when the female lead tells the male lead she knew he was human because of his earring, he reaches for the wrong ear, confirming he is The Thing. Even if The Thing couldn't reproduce the earring, it would have known which ear it was supposed to be in.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: It is also established in this film that the creature cannot perfectly imitate inorganic materials; the tooth fillings, metal plate, etc. Kate knows that Carter is The Thing and asks him a trick question about his earring to confirm it. The fact that The Thing reaches for the wrong ear means that it didn't know where the earring really was because it cannot perfectly imitate inorganic materials. There is no mistake here.
The mistake has nothing to do with The Thing not being able to imitate inorganic material. The mistake is The Thing has all the memories and thus should know which ear was pierced based on these memories.
This goes with my theory that he was actually human because he didn't try to assimilate her when they we're alone and far away from people, and he didn't change when he was threatened and accused which was backed by (potentially false if the theory is correct) evidence which would make it defend itself.
You're obviously wrong here. The Thing imitates the human perfectly including the memory and I'm pretty sure that if you only have one ear pierced you'd know which one is it, therefore the imitation would know.
27th Jul 2011
Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Corrected entry: When Sam Witwicky has his last job interview a woman starts looking at the camera crew.
Correction: She could be looking at anything that's offscreen. There's no indication that it's the camera crew.
5th Jul 2011
The Big Bang Theory (2007)
The Spaghetti Catalyst - S3-E20
Corrected entry: When Sheldon says goodbye to Howard after walking with him on the street, he says "BYE, SHEL" instead of "BYE, HOWARD".
2nd Jul 2011
Thor (2011)
Corrected entry: At the end when Loki goes to lock the Bifrost on Jotunheim, he's carrying Odin's staff and wearing a helmet. He slides the staff into the machinery to open the Bifrost then freezes the electrical streams (with the staff in the middle of it) and his helmet is gone. Thor comes in to stop him and he's got the staff back from inside the ice and his helmet is back.

Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)
Corrected entry: On the door of Hunter's room it says his name, but when the father says "his room is untouched" the "r" is missing and the in the next scene it reappears again.
Correction: The "R" on Hunter's door is knocked off because the demon ransacks the house. The family then have cameras set up around the house as well as tidying it up. The "R" was obviously put back on the door because Hunter's room and the rest of the house is tidy again.
Correction: Using the word "like" or "as" would make something a simile, not a metaphor. For it to be a metaphor, Drax would have said something like "Their skin was paper." You know their skin isn't actually paper. And as for the Gamora/whore comment, I honestly don't know. Maybe Drax literally sees her as a whore and it wasn't a metaphor for anything at all? xD.
THGhost
The reason why Drax refers to Gamora as a whore, is that the prisoners were calling her a "green whore" when she first entered the prison yard earlier in the film. Drax, being the kind of person that he is, does not realise that they were using it as an insult, but mistakenly believes that is what she actually is.
