Corrected entry: When the family arrives in Miami, they pass Kevin's bag until they reach an old man, dressed in shorts. In the initial airport scene, while Kevin is chasing his father, the same old man is there, dressed in a business suit.

Correction: People get changed on planes all the time.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: Not much point in having a purpose built workshop for a speedboat 4-5 floors above river level. As shown later in Spectre there were underground moorings and easy access to the Thames at river level.

Correction: Spectre is set in a different continuity to this movie, so this doesn't count.

Irish01

Correction: At the time of release of this film it's safe to assume that there might not have been easy access at river level.

Corrected entry: Near the beginning where all the people are being hanged, when the young boy is singing, you can see he has braces on his teeth.

Aulara

Correction: No, it's just dirty teeth.

Correction: It's definitely braces on his teeth and they were made to look dirty.

I believe the webmaster clarified that his teeth are just dirty. No braces.

Ssiscool

Correction: It is definitely braces. watching it now.

Corrected entry: As Gabriel is starting the download from Woodlan to the "portable" server set up by his men, the progress bar shows "0 of 500TB used". Even with today's harddrives, one would need to carry 250 to 500 harddrives to reach this capacity.

Christoph Galuschka

Correction: Gabriel didn't download the data to a portable server. His men went to Woodlawn to disable all the safety protocols (firewalls etc) and the download was completed via the normal Internet to a server farm elsewhere. This is why Gabriel turned off phone networks, satellites etc to make sure he had as much bandwidth available as possible for his download.

Granted I've not seen this one in a while but it's shown on screen that the download is happening to the device hooked up.

Ssiscool

As far as I remember it was copied to a different system.

I, Robot (2004)

Corrected entry: If Dr. Alfred Lanning had fallen from the massive height that he did in the film, his body would have been in a much more mangled state.

Correction: There is no way to tell this since we are never show which part of his body hit the ground first (which makes a huge difference if the head is first or the back or legs).

Even best case scenario the body would still be more mangled than is shown.

Die Hard 2 (1990)

Corrected entry: Bruce is sitting in what looks like a C-130 while terrorists throw grenades in it through the window. Never mind the grenades going off too late, because they wouldn't all have made it through the small window anyway. In fact some of those grenades would've bounced back killing the terrorists also, which would've made for a surprising end to this movie. (01:17:45)

Correction: It is improbable that the terrorists could toss all the grenades in a small window, but it isn't factually impossible.

BaconIsMyBFF

Agreed. Many units of a tide for this exact event.

Breaking Bad (2008)

Cancer Man - S1-E4

Character mistake: When Walt is in the bathroom using hydrogen peroxide to clean his leg wound he received from killing Crazy 8, he notices blood on his pants. He tries to clean the bloodstain off with a toothbrush. I think that any and EVERY chemist would know that hydrogen peroxide almost instantly removes blood stains from clothing. But, instead of using this somewhat common knowledge, Walt scrubs the stain with a toothbrush under the sink. Even if he had never heard of this 'trick', given the nature of H2O2 and Walt's understanding of chemistry, he would have realized this chemical solution immediately... Especially since he used the peroxide seconds before discovering the blood stain. (00:15:55 - 00:17:10)

Suggested correction: Walter just killed a person for the first time. This took a traumatic tool on him and has clouded his thinking, which would affect his thinking process.

This scene takes place a couple of days later. Enough time for the adrenaline to leave his system.

Futurama (1999)

A Flight to Remember - S2-E1

Other mistake: Bender wears a magnetic bow tie. However in series 1 episode 2 it's shown magnets screw up his circuits and make him sing songs. It's mentioned in a previous entries correction that it's only when the magnet is near his head. This isn't true as it's shown in others episodes that it happens when a magnet is attached anywhere on him.

Suggested correction: It's strong magnets near his head that mess up his inhibition unit. The bow tie is a very weak magnet.

Greg Dwyer

As stated in the mistake, It happens when ANY magnet is attached to him.

Hannibal (2001)

Corrected entry: In the scene where the woman and Mason match the fingerprint to Dr. Lecter they use a computer. In no part of the fingerprinting process do you use a computer, even for a match.

Correction: Fingerprints can and are scanned into computers all the time and digitized for matching purposes.

Has been the norm for a few decades.

Trivia: The film made $400m, the lowest in the franchise, and had mediocre reviews.

Suggested correction: Actually, "The Scorpion King" has by far the lowest gross of the '99 "Mummy" franchise. Additionally, I don't see how reviews constitute trivia.

TedStixon

If the first part was true then it could be trivia. But I agree that reviews in general shouldn't be trivia.

Cast Away (2000)

Corrected entry: When Noland is casually urinating into the ocean late one night we see a light on the horizon. It can only be from a passing ship. Noland doesn't react at all, and it is directly in his line of sight. He couldn't miss it.

Correction: Um, did you watch the rest of the scene? he literally sees the light when he's done urinating and says "ship!" and then yells "help" and shines his flashlight.

Correction: That's the entire point of the scene. When he looks in the direction of the light, it stops, and it's only visible when he's not looking. It's meant as a sad, "missed opportunity" scene.

What absolute nonsense. He is looking straight at it. In fact it is a light from a building on the island used as a filming location (Monuriki, Fiji) that the post production crew forgot to paint out, making it two different types of film mistake.

It could be that he simply doesn't believe it is a light. Doesn't want to get his hopes up.

Hot Fuzz (2007)

Corrected entry: After Angel leaves Skinner's office to confront the shoplifter, (before Angel arrives next to him at the shelves) the shoplifter isn't putting any items into his pockets - he's merely miming the gesture.

Heather Benton

Correction: Watch closely. At least 1 packet of biscuits is put into his jacket pocket.

Columbo (1971)

Correction: Early indications at a crime scene can be misleading. At the scene they have no way to confirm what happens. That is usually determined by the autopsy.

Other mistake: When Kate and Teddy go outside to see Santa, the time on the camera doesn't change after a minute.

Suggested correction: Movie time and real time are not the same unless stated such as the show 24.

Ssiscool

I dunno, time can be compressed when cutting between things, but a continuous sequence always operates in real time. We might cut out part of a journey, but if someone's onscreen talking for 3 minutes and a clock doesn't change, that's a mistake.

See I've seen mistakes similar get corrected in the past so I'm not entirely sure. Time jumping backwards or forwards (more than it should ie.. jumping forward 10m during a sentence) is obviously a mistake.

Jurassic World (2015)

Continuity mistake: The restricted zone where the original Jurassic Park was is to the north. After Indominus chases the kids to the waterfall, it is said in the control room that the huge dino is moving south to the crowds waiting for rides to reopen in the downtown section, drawn by the heat signatures of the gathered masses. A few scenes later, Indominus is up north again terrorizing the kids at the Jurassic Park jeep port.

Corrected entry: Just before the Indominus Rex ambush, in one shot the Asset Containment Unit trooper Meyers is equipped with a taser-rifle. In the next, she's equipped with a cattle prod. This happens at least twice. (00:46:10)

The Italian Job (2003)

Factual error: When Charlie hands off the case of gold at the end, he easily spins it around as if it's empty. Bars of gold aren't light by any means.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: When they put the gold into the Minis, we only see silver metal boxes in the trunks, not the black one Charlie hands over to the Ukrainian. Also the time span between getting on the train and the confrontation with Steve was too short to put the barrels into the black box. It's more likely that the box is full of money and was prepared before the Minis entered the subway system.

Not likely. Gold would be worth more than cash in that box. And gold would make more sense as then they don't have to carry cash and take up space in the minis.
