Corrected entry: Mikey gets shot in the head twice but when the police are at the scene investigating there is no blood anywhere on the floor even though he has been lying in that position for at least an hour.

MCKD

Correction: Mikey does indeed get shot in the head twice, but moments after that, we cut to the next scene which is outside. We never see Mikey or the floor again.

Corrected entry: As Axel is getting tossed around in the back of the semi carrying the cigarettes, you can see that a number of the boxes are empty as they are crushed under the weight of his body.

MCKD

Correction: The trailer is stocked as when it was confiscated in a prior bust. The earlier criminals must have included empty boxes among the full ones to fool their buyer. Axel has 'borrowed' it as is, and the latest buyers didn't notice the empty boxes during the sting. Not a mistake.

Beverly Hills Cop (1984)

Corrected entry: When the rear trailer separates from the semi before the driver jumps out, you see the rear trailer rolling past the 1st trailer to its left, but when the camera angle changes to show the police running to the crash site, the rear trailer is now pushed up against the back of the first trailer. (00:07:35)

MCKD

Correction: Not so. The low shot showing the loose trailer bouncing toward the right of the screen shows a wide separation between the first and second trailers. The next time we see both, the angle is higher, further away and rotated 90 degrees around the crash site, making the loose trailer look closer, nearly against the side of the first trailer- but it's an illusion of the camera zoom.

Corrected entry: Axel takes the I.D. badges from the 2 guys at the warehouse and has them in his left hand but when you see Axel slap the side of box he's sitting on the badges are no longer in his hand.

MCKD

Correction: During part of this scene the camera is facing Axel from behind the two employees. As Axel shouts at them waving his arm up and down, you can briefly make out a gesture of his arms where he switches the badges in to his right hand. Immediately before the camera cuts to him slapping the box, he waves his right hand up and down twice and you can make out the badges in that hand.

Corrected entry: Axel has room service deliver some food to the beige car but when the car is seen stalling in the middle of the street due to the bananas in the tailpipe it's white, not beige.

MCKD

Correction: The car is still beige when it stalls in the middle of the street. It is the same beige car that was parked when Axel put the bananas in the tailpipe.
