Factual error: Towards the end of the movie when the Titans are playing for the championship, Petie grabs up a fumbled ball and runs with it. When he stands up from being tackled, watching TV back in his hospital room, Gary yells Petie's name and the nurse comes to Gary's room to see if everything is all right. When she opens the door to Gary's hospital room, she opens it into the hallway. There isn't a hospital in the world where the patients door opens into the hallway. They all open inward to the patient's room.

Suggested correction: There are numerous hospitals where the doors open into the hallways. Rush hospital in Chicago is one. Prentice women's hospital is another.

Your suggested correction is invalid. Though there are hospitals where there are numerous storage closet doors that open into the hallway, the "patients room" doors do not open into the hallway... (the key word here is 'patients room' doors.

Shallow Hal (2001)

Factual error: When Hal meets Rosie's mom, she is a large woman but her hands are skinny. If someone is the size as her character, they would have large hands as well.

Suggested correction: Actually when Hal first meets Rosemary's Mom, she is shown skinny as does Rosemary through the way that Hal sees them. It's not until later in the movie after Hal's hypnosis is gone do we (and Hal) see the "real" fat mom and rosemary and their hands do look a bit larger by then.

It is obvious that Rosemary and her mother are wearing 'fat' suits as neither women are large in real life. The suggested correction in invalid as throughout the movie, the only time Rosemary's hands appear large are in spots. (eating the taffy apple when she met Jill, and rubbing Hal's cheek when he had the goop on his eyes. Yet you never see the full body with a face in those shots.) Therefore, as I stated in the factual error, when Hal meets Rosie's mom at the end (at the party), she is wearing a fat suit, but her hands and Rosie's are skinny. It's a valid movie error.

After.Life (2009)

Corrected entry: When Eliot goes into the morgue and Anna is lying on the table, Eliot takes off his black dress shoes, slips on a pair of white rubber shoes, and puts on a white coat. Then he approaches the table Anna is lying on, walks around the table, and the black dress shoes are back on his feet.

Correction: After he puts the white rubber shoes on, all the other shots when he's at the table, he still has them on. You can tell because they don't have the back and his heels are exposed. However, he's wearing black socks and his shoes are in the dark and shadows, making it look like his other black shoes (with the exception of the exposed heels that his other shoes did not do).

Bishop73. If you watch closely, you will notice that he takes the black shoes off. Then when he walks around the table, he is still wearing the black shoes that he took off.

The Punisher (2004)

Corrected entry: In the scene when Frank runs up to his wife and son there is an overhead shot of him kneeling next to his family after they have been run over by saint's men. There is no blood anywhere on the dock. If they had been killed there would definitely been some sort of blood around the bodies and tire tracks trailing blood after running down the wife and child.

Correction: When you get run over by a vehicle, you usually die from internal bleeding. The mother and child were merely run over by the truck, which doesn't lead to the amount of blood you might assume.
