Suggested correction: This bridge is a route with plenty of cars on it. Any tire marks seen could very well have been made from the many cars that have driven on the bridge over the years.

Skid marks visible in the exact location the car swerves? Possible, but highly unlikely.

Independence Day (1996)

Independence Day mistake picture

Revealing mistake: In the exterior shot of Air Force One and its accompanying jets in the air, just before the shot of David getting nauseous aboard Air Force One, something suddenly comes up along the entire bottom edge of the screen. This is only visible on fullscreen DVD. (01:08:10)

Suggested correction: That is another jet guarding Air Force One.

It's not. In the picture you can see it's the entire width if the screen with another object about 1/4 way across. The item is also a lot closer than any other object.

Fury (2014)

Factual error: In the hedgerow battle, the Fury tank platoon face off with a German MG 42 machine gun and two 7.5 cm Pak 40 anti-tank gun. Each of these guns opens fire only after the previous one gets knocked out. In a real combat situation, all of the guns would open fire at the same time and establish a cross fire, effectively suppressing the ground troops and tanks from advancing. (00:31:35 - 00:33:30)

Suggested correction: By the time the movie takes place (mid to late April 1945) the German army was mostly inexperienced troops with an incredibly small nucleus of veterans. Though the tactical use of weapon systems you mention is correct, I doubt most of the formations still putting up a fight in Germany proper would have had the knowledge/ability to carry it out.

With low experience I would expect the soldiers to open fire too soon and with no communication between guns to create the "talking gun" effect. The fact that the two guns opened fire separate of each other makes very little tactical sense regardless of skill or experience.

With no experience it is more likely they would open fire as the 1st guns fires. With all 3 stations opening fire they would have had more chance to succeed.

The Trouble with Shellshock - S1-E22

Character mistake: About halfway through the episode, we see Billy, Zack and Kimberly are frozen because of Shell-shock. Towards the end when Jason and Tommy are in the Zords fighting Shell-shock, the Yellow Ranger comes running with the flowers that unfreeze the Rangers and Zords. The Yellow Ranger yells "Jason, Billy, I have the Diandra flower!" She should have yelled Tommy's name instead of Billy since we know Billy is frozen and that Tommy is the one helping Jason fight Shell-shock.

Suggested correction: She doesn't know that. She was sent running after they were frozen.

DetectiveGadget85

So if she was sent after they were frozen, she would know Billy is frozen.

Suggested correction: It's been shown on various occasions that the zords can be operated remotely.

DetectiveGadget85

Yes but to call upon the zords you need to have the power coin. The Rangers don't have the coin, therefore the Tyrannosaurus shouldn't be there.

Ssiscool

Zordon created the zord. I'm pretty sure he can summon and operate it without a power coin.

DetectiveGadget85

Zordon was disabled by brainwashed Tommy, so he couldn't have summoned it at this point.

No, the command centre is able to remotely control the zords.

The Long Legs of the Law - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: At the very beginning of the episode, Leonard Pearce is waiting for the cue for his character to start looking for his teeth. He's standing in the living room, between his room and Del and Rodney's room. (00:00:25)

Suggested correction: Not necessarily a mistake. If someone is looking for something they often try to think where it could be before they start searching.

Clearly not seen the episode. Leonard is stood not moving a muscle and then starts actively looking.

Suggested correction: When Grampa stands up you can only ever see one picture on the wall. This is of Jebadiah Springfield. There is a shot when we see Grampa lifted up by townspeople and you see a second picture then. But in the 1st shot it's simply not visible.

Suggested correction: Homer is in the car as it hits the tree and after this the bonnet is crumpled up obscuring your view of the driver's seat so impossible to say if he is in the car or not.

Marge vs. the Monorail - S4-E12

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Homer slides down a big pipe and smashes through one of the windows on the right side of the car. But when Homer crashes into the chestnut tree, it is fully repaired. (00:01:25)

Suggested correction: You can see no lines on that window indicating glass is there as is shown on all other windows in the show. So the glass is missing and so still broken.

Suggested correction: At no point does Lisa turn over the resume. She takes it, reads it and says it needs padding out.

Ssiscool

Suggested correction: Lisa does turn over the resume, but there's nothing typed on the back. She's wasn't turning the resume over to continue reading it, she was just looking to see if there was something more because it was one line, hence her response of needing padding.

The Otto Show - S3-E22

Continuity mistake: When Otto is playing the guitar with bart in the middle of the night, there are close-ups of Otto whenever he is singing. You can see that the wall behind him is plain. However, when there is a wide shot of otto and bart, the wall behind otto has two tables leaned against them. (00:15:50)

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

Suggested correction: Not true, in the close up of Otto singing the corner of some shelves are visible. These shelves become visible when the camera pans round to show him turning to look at Homer and Marge. Meaning we see 2 different backgrounds depending on the camera angle. No mistake.

Suggested correction: When she sings this, the shot is of Marge.

No, the mistake is referring to the start of the line when it is clear she sings 3 or 4 words without her mouth moving. The mistake is valid.

1917 (2019)

Corrected entry: The entire premise of the movie is flawed. If the General needed to get an order to Col McKenzie, the quickest and surest means would have been to drop a message from an aircraft. In fact, the field beyond the aid station at the end of the movie would have been perfectly suitable for an aircraft of the time to land and hand-deliver a message the day before the assault.

Correction: The field beyond the aid station at the end of the movie was also in a prime position to be bombarded by enemy artillery. Regardless, this is not how messages were sent during WWI.

The military used people called runners especially for this purpose of delivering urgent messages. Co-incidentally, Adolf Hitler was a German runner in WW1 who was injured in 1916.
