Lethal Weapon (1987)

Corrected entry: A green car is parked at the side of Dixie's house before the explosion. Between shots it gets replaced by a brown car surrounded by people, then it changes back to the green car and drives off, away from the road. (00:55:55)

Correction: Not so. There is a side street along the side of Dixie's home. On the far side of that street, a brown car has its hood and trunk open with people near it. On the closer side of that same side street, a blue 1960s Impala convertible is parked facing away from camera, partially obscured by Dixie's home. There is one very quick shot where you can see both cars are there, but the rest of the angles show one while hiding the other. When the house explodes, the blue car takes off- perhaps driven by the bomber, or simply a bystander getting out of the way. No error.

Lethal Weapon (1987)

Corrected entry: The car that Mr Joshua shoots Riggs from and the car that Mr Joshua later steals from the highway are the same car. (01:05:50 - 01:26:30)

Correction: Same model and color, but the plates are never readable, and as they are fairly new at the time of the film, it's not unlikely to see more than one. Absent an obvious, unique identifier, this isn't really a solid mistake.

Lethal Weapon (1987)

Correction: Actually, not even a close resemblance. Dixie's house is practically a shack while the Partridge Family home was enormous. Do a Google image search to see the huge differences.

Lethal Weapon (1987)

Corrected entry: When Riggs runs after Mr. Joshua, who is trying to escape in the stolen car, Murtaugh shouts after him that Mr. Joshua is heading for the freeway. How on earth does he know that, especially since Joshua was going into some odd direction which allowed Riggs to shortcut him on foot and get ahead of him? (01:27:25)

NancyFelix

Correction: Murtagh, like Joshua, knows these streets, and Joshua's direction suggests he's heading for the freeway. Murtagh also shouts a shortcut to Riggs, which is what allows Riggs to catch up to Joshua.
