Corrected entry: The whole plot of the movie is premised on the fact that it has been 14 years since the last release with the movie "catching us up" on what has happened the last 14 years. The big problem is that none of the Incredibles have aged. "Dash" and Violet Parr (the kids) should be 20-something adults possibly with their own kids and Bob and Helen Parr (The parents) would be middle-aged grandparents.

Incredibles 2 (2018)

That '70s Show (1998)
Corrected entry: During the episode, it goes back to 1968 and in the closing credits Eric is listed as being 7. However, he can't be because in 'Eric's Birthday' it was 1976 and he had turned 17. Thus in '68 he would have had to be 8 or 9 (depending on his birth) but certainly not 7.
Correction: Eric's Birthday is officially March 5 1960, per the show's website. So he would have been 7, turning 8, in 1968. However, in the show, his birth date is inconsistent and it's for those episodes that a mistake should be listed (such as e01s02).

Cheers (1982)
Woody For Hire, and Norman of the Apes - S6-E13
Corrected entry: When Woody is making finger sandwiches, Sam tells him that they don't have to be in the shape of fingers (or something along those lines), and Woody replies back "Whatever, Ted". Ted is the actor's name, not the character's name.

Trolls (2016)
Corrected entry: The Trolls have shown to be able to do things with their hair that should be impossible, like Poppy walking on her own hair as if they were stairs. So why couldn't they use their hair to pick the lock on the cage Chef puts them in?
Correction: Just because they can do impossible things doesn't mean they can do anything. Even if Trolls could use their hair to pick a lock doesn't mean they'd have the skills to pick a lock. I know people who can't pick a lock with actual lock pick tools.

Fracture (2007)
Corrected entry: In real life, Crawford could not have been retried for murder at the end. Double jeopardy means you can't be retried for the same event under a different charge. If you could, then whenever someone is acquitted of first degree murder, prosecutors would just retry them for second degree murder, then third degree murder, then voluntary manslaughter, etc.
Correction: Double Jeopardy does not apply because Crawford was tried on two different crimes (not different degrees of the same crime). He was never charged with murder during the first trial because Jennifer, his wife, was still alive (although on life support). He was tried on attempted murder. After the plug was pulled and she died, Crawford was then charged with murder because her death was a direct result of being shot. Someone can be charged with a different crime involving the same event, even after being acquitted of one of them. If Jennifer survived, was put on life support, made a recovery, but then died of an infection later, it's unlikely the D.A.'s office would charge Crawford with murder in that scenario (or if they did it's unlikely he would be convicted).
No, her death was not a direct result of her being shot. Even at the end of the movie, it is stated that the doctors had said that Crawford's wife could have outlived them all had Crawford never pulled the plug. So, she died because her husband legally pulled the plug. No crime there. No double jeopardy applies, and he walks out of his house to the airport to enjoy life on the beach.

Red Dwarf (1988)
Corrected entry: At the restaurant, the guide hands Lister his caviar vindaloo, which he states is "half rice, half chips and more bread and butter to follow", but there are visibly no chips on the plate. There are caviar, vindaloo, rice and potato wedges shown on the plate, but no chips. (00:19:25)
Correction: The potato wedges are the "chips." It's a British term for fried potatoes or what Americans may call "fries."
Potato wedges and chips are made from potato, but are still two different things. If the guide wanted to say it was half potato wedges, then he could have just said "half potato wedges."

iZombie (2015)
Plot hole: When Katty is first discussing the dead girl from the plane crash who had brains in her stomach, she says the girl's flesh indicated she died months before she ever got on the plane. But then later in the episode, Katty says the plane crash girl was at the boat party (massacre) the day before she got on the plane. Everyone at the boat party was alive before dying and turning into a zombie, so the girl's flesh would not indicate she was dead for months since she only died the day before.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: Not everyone at the boat party was "alive", there were some zombies there as well, Blaine included, it is entirely possible that she was a zombie before the boat party happened.
Which episode(s) mention Blaine and others were zombies before the boat party massacre? Everything in the show makes it seem like it was the combination of tainted Utopium and Max Ranger energy drink that night which caused the zombie outbreak, including Blaine's transformation. And the Fillmore-Graves outbreak was a separate incident that Blaine wasn't a part of.
Yeah, the boat party was ground zero for the outbreak, Blaine and everyone else was human when they got on the boat. Nothing suggests otherwise.
When get turned in to a zombie your flesh is dying so her flesh could be dead.
Suggested correction: I think you're assuming that when zombies die for real they decay at a regular rate, but we've only seen frozen dead zombies - so maybe a dead zombie's decayed flesh decays even faster?

National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985)
Corrected entry: The dog falls from the Eiffel tower into water. There is no water around the Eiffel tower.
Correction: From the angle of the shot it is hard to tell which side the dog fell off. There is a river, the Seine, directly to the northwest of the tower. It can be seen in the shot where the hat is thrown. It is possible the dog landed in the river.
Correction: The Seine River is over 500 feet away from the base of the tower, so it's unlikely the dog fell there. However, there are two ponds on the sides of the tower, in the park area.

Spectre (2015)
Other mistake: When flying the grey Hughes 500 helicopter off the crater, the pilot sits on the right side, but in a Hughes 500, the pilot always sits on the left side.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: Helicopter pilots always sit on the right, as the collective lever is on the left, and to use the left seat means climbing over it every time you enter.
This corrector seems to be missing the point. The collective lever being on the left is why helicopter pilots-in-command started sitting on the right (while in airplane the PIC sat on the left). However, helicopters began developing dual collective levels that allowed piloting from left or right, so this idea of "climbing over" the lever is a moot point. But, for whatever design reason, pilots of MD 500's sit on the left, not the right.

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)
Corrected entry: Throughout the movie, McConaughey wears a wedding band on his ring finger. He is not married in the movie.
Correction: It should also be noted that McConaughey wasn't married at the time of filming, so he certainly wasn't wearing a wedding ring.
A gold band is visible on his right ring finger in the scene in the bathroom at his family's house.
That is to say a ring on the ring finger, even on the left hand, doesn't constitute a wedding ring. It's just a ring. There have been instances when married actors don't take off their wedding rings for a film (or scene) which means the ring it's possibly not a character choice, but this wasn't the case for McConaughey.
Correction: Not a mistake to wear a ring wherever you like - quite a few people wear a ring on the ring finger of their left hand despite not being married. No law against it.
Correction: No he doesn't. He always wears a ring on his right hand, not his left, where you would wear a wedding ring. Lots of guys wear a ring on their right hands.
Could be a family heirloom and have sentimental value. I wear my grandmother's ring on either ring finger, if it's not fitting on my middle! Darn knuckles... So, that's a logical possibility too.

Lethal Weapon 2 (1989)
Corrected entry: In the opening scene when Riggs and Murtaugh are driving through the tunnel, Riggs states over the radio that they are "East bound, on foot..." when they are driving a vehicle. (00:00:40)
Correction: He says "we're east bound on Fourth", not foot.

Sons of Anarchy (2008)
Falx Cerebri - S2-E6
Other mistake: Tara and Gemma are practising shooting. Tara is using a .38 which holds five rounds. She shoots all 5 rounds, then she shoots Ima's car 5 more times without reloading. (00:31:35)
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: The barrel is open in her hand when she's shown then she fires at the car. One would assume the barrel is open to reload.
We hear Tara open the barrel when she and Gemma are watching Ima get out of the car and then it's a quick shot to her with the open barrel. There was no time to reload in that time.
Thank you Bishop.

M*A*S*H (1972)
Factual error: In surgery Trapper John is singing Frank Sinatra's version of "I got you under my skin". Although it was written in 1936, Sinatra did not release it until 1956, after the Korean War ended. The 1936 version sung by Al Bowlly sounds nothing like the version Trapper John was singing, which was mimicking Sinatra's version.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: While it hadn't been released on vinyl until 1956, Sinatra had sung the song as early as 1946 on his radio show and during live shows.
The version Frank Sinatra sang on his radio show was similar to the original version used in the movie "Born to Dance" (a movie he references before singing his two songs). He didn't change it to the big band version that Trapper imitates until 1956.

That '70s Show (1998)
Moon Over Point Place (1) - S2-E26
Corrected entry: The show is based in the 70s, but Donna sings "Baby got back" which is from the 90s. (00:09:15)
Correction: Not sure if this is just a troll entry, but she does not sing "Baby got back." She says she likes showing her butt and then sings " (Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty."

The Cosby Show (1984)
Cyranoise de Bergington - S5-E8
Other mistake: During the opening scene, Cliff is in his home office, located in the basement of his home. The phone rings. He walks over to his office desk, then presses the speaker button. An unfamiliar female voice is heard speaking, as she states that someone is there is see Cliff. Who is that woman? Where is her office desk stationed? She is never heard, or seen, ever again within this episode, and throughout other episodes, prior or after. This is S5E7. This website has the season and episodes mismatched. (01:19:00 - 01:39:00)
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: It sounded like Clair to me. And in regards to who that someone was, it was Rudy. So it wasn't as if it was Dr. Huxtable's secretary announcing a patient, or a secretary who didn't know who Cliff's kids were. It's easy to picture Clair acting like a secretary for her daughter's sake so that Rudy could come in and talk to her dad while he's a work, without Rudy just running in and disrupting him. Plus, his phone didn't ring, it was the intercom that Clair would have used from another phone in the house.
Clair is not seen speaking into a speaker, at any time, during any episode, throughout the entire show's existence, and that woman's voice does not sound like Clair's. In addition, Cliff exchanged with 'the mystery female' in a professional manner/tone of voice, like a boss would to an employee, an not in his usually playful, loving voice, that he normally speaks to Clair with.

Next Friday (2000)
Corrected entry: At the beginning of the film when Ice Cube is getting in his dad's dog pound van ready to go and live with his cousins, he remembers Smokey (Chris Tucker in the first Friday movie) and utters the words "I'll miss it around here but I'm going to especially miss my boy Smokey who went into rehab a month ago." If this film is set next Friday from the original as the title suggests how did Smokey go away a month ago?
Correction: The story is not suggested to show that it is 7 days later from the original movie. In the beginning of the story it tells us that it's been a while since the last episode.
Correction: Craig mentions a 4 month period where Deebo was locked up.
Correction: Craig narrated "Deebo ended up going to jail for about 4 years." In the behind the scenes featurette, Ice Cube mentioned that Deebo broke out 4 years after the brutal fight that happened in the original film. So, the film took place 4 years after Friday. Friday was shot in 1994, then released in 1995. Next Friday was shot in 1999 then released in 2000. That makes it a 5 year gap in release. However, the events of this sequel still took place 4 years after the event of the original film. Since Next Friday took place 4 years after the events of the original Friday, it is possible that Friday might have taken place in 1995, and Next Friday might have taken place in 1999 (due to some of the pop culture references in the film).
Correction: The title is only for sequel marketing purposes, rather than calling it "Friday 2." It's like "Star Trek: The Next Generation" takes place 100 years later, not 25 years, which is the length of a typical generation.

Trivia: Although Joan Sims plays Patsy Rowlands' mother in this film, Sims was only four years older than Rowlands.

Suggested correction: There was only eight months between the two actresses.
Wikipedia has Patsy Rowland's date of birth wrong. Patsy died in 2005 and in a 2005 article by The Guardian, the article list her age as 71. This would put her birth year 1934, not 1931, which is also confirmed at the end of the article.

Underworld: Blood Wars (2017)
Corrected entry: Michael is portrayed as having been killed by having his throat cut. This contradicts prior films, which portray him as being far too powerful to die by traditional means. (Ex. In the second film, he is repeatedly shot and impaled, sustaining far greater damage to his body, but returns to life upon going into a hibernation-like state for a short period.) Unless he is brought back in a future installment, the portrayal of his death makes no sense in the context of the series.
Correction: Not only was his throat slit, but all his blood was drained from his body, which is different than the other times he was nearly killed. The blood is the key. However, Selene had to intervene at least 3 times to save Michael. For example, she cut off Viktor's head as he was about to kill Michael. But, as you say, even though the audience is lead to believe he's dead, it could just be a cliffhanger and we may find out a drop of blood was left in his body, or through some other method he fully recovers.
Correction: "Incredibles 2" is not set 14 years later. It takes place 3 months after the first film. In fact, it's still 1962, the same year "The Incredibles" is set.

Yeah, pretty funny entry as I think odelphi is referring to the start of the first movie, with the interviews. Whilst this movie starts with showing exactly where the last movie ended.
