Total Recall (2012)

Corrected entry: After killing Matthias, Cohaagen and Lori climb into a white-colored kind of helicopter with the number 4605 on the tail, but when Hauser brakes free and exits the train station, he climbs into a helicopter with the same numbers, only this time it's black! This could be because they only produced one real-live sized model of the ship and used it for both shots, only digitally changing the color.

Correction: Firstly both vehicles are white on top and black on the bottom, as are all the other police helicopters in the film. Regarding the number on the side, given the mass production of machines in the film it is likely to be a model number just as you would get for a TV or phone for example. The helicopter is model 4605 FP or 4605 Federal Police.

Pacific Rim (2013)

Corrected entry: Dr. Newton makes it very clear that nothing can get through the portal unless it has Kaiju DNA. Yet somehow both Mako and Raleigh manage to escape and return safely to Earth.

eructo666

Correction: The Kaiju DNA thing is a security protocol, set up to prevent any Earth retaliation from coming through the breach into the alien realm. The same security isn't necessary travelling the other way through the breach, from the alien realm to Earth, and could even prove counterproductive should the Kaiju's creators wish to send something non-Kaiju through. As such, there's no need for the protocol to exist in that direction, allowing Raleigh and Mako to make their escape.

Tailkinker

Corrected entry: In the battle after Sam rescues Carly, she touches multiple dirty spots, yet she never gets a single dirt spot on her white shirt.

eructo666

Correction: Yes she does, this is easiest to spot in the shot where Sam and Carly are reunited after the fighting.

The Expendables 2 (2012)

Corrected entry: In the scene where Billy the Kid dies, Vilain's guy cuts across Billy's chest horizontally, but later it switches to a diagonal cut and then to having no blood at all.

eructo666

Correction: When it is diagonal, it is just because of the guy behind him who has his hand on Billy the Kid's shoulder which is pulling the shirt and if you watch again you won't see the cut properly because the shirt pulled. There is no mistake in that. The blood goes away, there is the mistake but that can be covered as well by saying that the blood was sucked by the shirt :/.

The Hunger Games (2012)

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the scene where Katniss fights Clove after getting the backpack with Peeta's medicine, Clove throws a knife at her, and it cuts her forehead. If someone gets even a tiny scratch on his/her forehead it bleeds a lot, so a cut this big should at least blind Katniss with all the blood pouring from it [as the book says]. But after struggling and running for her life, there's not a single drop of blood on her, and when Peeta rubs the medicine on her forehead, it is as if the wound was days old.

Correction: While head wounds do typically bleed a lot, it is not a guarantee. Sometimes deeper cuts bleed less and there are places/people who bleed less. Some people just don't bleed as much as others. Also, as Katniss surely has an adrenalin rush going, that alone could also explain the less than "typical" blood flow (adrenalin constricts the vascular system). As a paramedic, I have seen head wounds that bleed a lot and some that don't.

shortdanzr

Corrected entry: In the scene where Bane has Miranda, Lucius Fox and another board member placed in front of the reactor, in the shot where Fox places his hand in the digital scanner you can see he misses his mark, because the scanner shows his supposedly scanned finger prints about an inch lower than where his fingers are placed.

eructo666

Correction: The screen scans the fingerprints no matter where the hand is placed; the monitor is just showing the read-out of the prints, not their original positions.
