Corrected entry: Henchmen are shown flying a helicopter over DC, with automatic weapons and such. After 9/11, DC has very strict airspace security, and a helicopter flying around without broadcasting its position would be beset by fighter jets in no time at all, especially if the helicopter was carrying armed men.

Razvaluha

Correction: The hackers have access to all communications so could therefore prevent the summoning of any jets. Not a mistake.

Corrected entry: When McClane and Farrell are stealing the BMW 5-series in Washington DC, Farrel hits the cars bumper with a trash can in order to deploy the airbags and prevent McClane from disabling the vehicle. Airbags do not deploy if vehicles are hit on the bumper with small objects, only if the vehicle is hit with sufficient force to trigger the airbag, usually by another vehicle or a large stationary object.

Razvaluha

Correction: This is a valid mistake but your reasoning is incorrect. There are compression sensors across the bumper and if sufficient pressure is applied the airbags will deploy BUT ONLY if there is also sufficient deceleration detected by the ACU (to prevent such unnecessary deployment). As the car is stationary it is not possible to set off the airbags in this manner. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_bag#Triggering_conditions.

Corrected entry: Near the start of the chase involving the HAZ-MAT van and the semi, John runs into a black Mercedes Benz car, skewing it round to the left of the cab, later on in the chase, he hits exactly the same Mercedes.

Correction: There must surely be two black Mercedes Benz cars as the first one is all smashed up.

Death Race (2008)

Corrected entry: When explaining about the car, 'Coach' points at the twin guns on the cars hood saying "and twin 30mm, belt-fed machine guns for offense". Looking at the guns one can easily say that those are not 30mm guns. Such guns are mounted on anti-tank aircraft and measure few meters in length, plus of course have much wider barrels. the guns on the car are at best 30 caliber ones, which is 7.62mm.

Correction: 'Coach' could have meant 30 Cal, not 30mm, making it a character mistake. If the the script has it as 30mm then it's a factual error.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: The news broadcast showing panic on the stock markets is shown shortly after McClain arrive in DC. However the speaker says panic broke out "this afternoon". But it's morning.

Jacob La Cour

Correction: Simple character error that "afternoon" was said instead of morning. It happens.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When McClane is attacking the helicopter from inside the tunnel, the guys in the helicopter see him coming when he is still deep inside the tunnel. They would not be able to see that the car was moving - let alone that it is McClane attacking them.

Jacob La Cour

Correction: If you look carefully, the lights are on at the top of the car and flashing. They can see that the vehicle is moving towards them and they know he went into the tunnel in one, so it's easy to presume that they know it's him.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: In the final image (before the credits) that zooms out from the plane at the airport, the plane only has one wing. The far wing should be visible at least a little due to the angle, but it just isn't there.

Correction: If you look under the plane you can see its shadow.

Corrected entry: After the Dragon Chase, Harry has the use of both arms in the scene where he opens his egg and makes up with Ron, yet his arm is in a sling in the following scenes - where Ron opens the box with his dress robes in, and for the dance lesson.

Correction: Harry is on a high from passing the task, so likely isn't going to feel the pain while is on an adrenalin rush. When the excitement wears off, the pain appears.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Harry is at the bathroom he looks at the golden egg you can see a crew member reflected on the egg.

dell

Correction: At no point is a crew member reflected in the egg. I have just studied this scene three times.

Family Guy (1999)

Correction: Some time has passed between those two shots since they are now in the countryside. Therefore we don't know if the family stopped for a toilet break or something where they would have changed place.

Death Race (2008)

Corrected entry: It's established that whenever Machine Gun Joe kills another racer, he cuts his face in the "tick mark" style - four vertical marks followed by a horizontal one (as his scars show.) After killing Grimm "Reaper," he is shown making a horizontal mark, but the leaderboard in subsequent races shows his kill count as something that's not a multiple of five (and he didn't score any more kills in the meantime, remember).

Correction: It's established that every time Machine Gun Joe kills, he adds a mark, however, it doesn't state whether it's on the track or not. So it cannot be viewed as a mistake since he could have killed off the track.

Black Hawk Down (2001)

Corrected entry: When Durant is in the small room he is shooting through the holes in the walls at attackers. Even though the bricks making up the wall are large, none of them are ever hit by a bullet.

Correction: How is that a mistake? Surrant was firing through the wall. The attackers might not know where it is coming from so not fire at that wall. Hence, no bullet marks.

Up (2009)

Corrected entry: Reviews of "Up" state that Carl Frederickson attached 20,622 helium-filled balloon to his house. When the floating house is over South America, he cuts only a dozen balloons loose and, amazingly, the house begins to descend.

Correction: There has to be a point where X amount of balloons will raise the weight. It also means that there is a point where the balloons can hold the weight and a point where the balloons can't hold the weight. Since we don't know the weight and the uplift of the balloons it is fair to assume that by cutting 12 balloons it could lower the house.

Defiance (2008)

Corrected entry: Almost a dozen microphone shots and one shot showing the lens shade.

Correction: This mistake is way too vague. Resubmit it with more information as to where and when we see some of these mics and the lens shade.

Corrected entry: Officer Barbrady is dressed in his police uniform when the town gathers for the reprise of, "Quiet Mountain Town", but as the camera pulls away, he is again dressed as a soldier. When the final group shot is shown, he's in his police uniform again. (01:15:10 - 01:16:20)

Padzter

Correction: When the camera pulls away you can't see Barbrady. So we don't know what he is wearing.

Corrected entry: When Cartman is being put to bed by his mum, his yellow back pack is in between his chest of drawers and his bed. When his mum is leaving the room, it has moved to in front of the chest of drawers, beside the door. (00:41:00)

Padzter

Correction: The bag stays in the same place throughout the scene.

Corrected entry: In the first classroom sequence after everyone sees the Terrence & Phillip film, we see some of the class wearing brown t-shirts. A few seconds later they all turn white. After Clyde volunteers to answer the sum, the t-shirts return to their normal colours.

Padzter

Correction: All the shirts stay the same colour throughout.

Corrected entry: When the kids pay the homeless guy to get them into the Asses of Fire movie, the guy leans down to tell Stan "it might not be appropriate." Initially the homeless guy leans down in front of Stan to talk, but in the next shot he is behind Stan. (00:04:45)

Correction: He is behind Stan in both shots. No mistake.
