Fortress (1992)

Other mistake: When D-Day discovers that the intestinators are magnetic, he puts the spare intestinator on himself to demonstrate. There are no troubles at all. When Stiggs volunteers to go first and have his intestinator removed from his body, not only does D-Day struggle to find where it is located, but you can also see where the intestinator moves inside his body where it didn't with D-Day's body. (01:04:30 - 01:07:00)

Other mistake: When Freddy puts his claws through Grady, not only do thy go through him, they manage to go well past the door. There is no way Freddy's claws are that long. (00:57:20)

28 Days Later (2002)

Other mistake: When Jim, Selena, Frank and his daughter enter the supermarket, you can notice all the fresh produce (apples, carrots etc) looking fresh. This virus has been going on for a few days now, and supermarkets get their fresh produce out immediately. After 10 days or so, give or take, the fresh produce shouldn't be looking this fresh.

Pants On Fire - S3-E14

Other mistake: Early in the episode, Frank turns on the heater and the family discover a bottle top in one of the vents Ray has thrown from a party he held 20 years ago. This couldn't have been the 1st time the heater had been used in that amount of time. (00:03:00)

Immortal Kombat - S1-E4

Other mistake: When the monk returns the water bottle to Siro and Taja, not long after talking to them (not realising the water bottle belongs to Kung Lao), how did Siro and Taja get so far ahead of the monk in that short amount of time? (00:05:35 - 00:06:35)

Other mistake: As the cop is walking towards the coffee machine, he steps on the T-1000 (disguised as the floor). The cop proceeds to the coffee machine and buys a coffee while the T-1000 turns into the cop. The T-1000 only touches his shoe, so shouldn't be able to copy his appearance. (00:51:00)

Suggested correction: The impression is given that the cop walking over the T-1000 gives the T-1000 the ability to copy him. But in truth we don't actually see when the T-1000 came with the sample of the cop to be able to copy him, maybe he had already collected his DNA beforehand. Far-fetched example is that humans shed skin and hair all the time, if that falls onto the T-1000 that could be enough.

Sorry but I disagree with this correction. If we are going down this road of "but maybe..." then it opens up a whole can of worms for what is a mistake and what isn't. In an explosion, a vase still on a shelf might have been glued but its unlikely. Where does it end? I think the original entry is for mistake is correct based on A - if the t1000 already had his DNA then why disguise himself as the floor? He'd have just killed him when he first got to the hospital and B - Unless we actually see or hear any evidence that the T-1000 would actually behave in this manner then as far as we the audience can believe, it doesn't happen.

It's about plausibility. It's to see if the writers and director actually made a mistake or gave it to our imagination.

Another possibility: people do occasionally touch the sole of their shoes when taking them on and off (or if they're polishing them, or trying to clean something off them). That would leave at least a few skin cells that the T-1000 could thus use as a sample.

Possible, but then people would leave skin cells everywhere. If this was the case, the T-1000 could scan the keyboard of a computer, or door handles to every door it passes through to receive many skin cells of different people.

Man on a Ledge (2012)

Other mistake: When Nick Cassidy climbs onto the roof, he somehow injures his leg, but moments later, he's running at full speed. (01:24:00)
