Correction: The game is set in 1959, not 1957.

Bishop73

Correction: The grenade that he threw isn't an impact grenade and wouldn't go off just because it hit the ground. And pulling the pin doesn't activate the detonator either. Once the striker lever is released the percussion cap is struck, activating a chemical delay (or fuse). The delay on average is 2-6 seconds, but it could be longer depending on how it was made.

Bishop73

Correction: First, that was the joke. And Ellen wouldn't admit that the family has a history of kidnapping people and would lie.

Bishop73

Suggested correction: First, at least 10 seconds pass before Amanda jumps in, not 1-3 seconds. But that doesn't mean only 10 seconds passed in the show. But additionally, Amanda already knows Kyle has memory loss and could be thinking Kyle forgot how to swim or forgot that he can't swim. So she goes to get him.

Correction: During filming the sandwich board was left entirely blank and "I hate n*****s" was added in. "I hate everybody" was also added in for television or edited release. So this seems to be a mistake from the broadcasters, not the film.

Bishop73

Correction: The terrorist simply aren't familiar with the fact that Yankee's home dugout isn't by third base. However, Zeus has a physical ticket that tells him where to go (row and seat number).

Bishop73

Correction: This is too much of a stretch since the person is real-life Steelers player Hines Ward and not a made up name. Many Steelers players are involved in the entire scene since it takes places at Heinz Field, where the Steelers play. Ward was extremely popular and considered by many one of the top 10 Steelers player of all time.

Correction: I never heard M called Miles in "A View to Kill", I even checked transcripts of the film to see if "Miles" is ever said. Additionally, in "A View to Kill", M was played by Robert Brown, not Bernard Lee and Robert Brown played Admiral Hargreaves in "The Spy Who Loved Me." We know Judi Dench's M is not Miles, but a different character and M is also a title that's given. So the theory is is that Admiral Hargreaves became the new M, and thus wouldn't be addressed as Miles.

Correction: Gogol says, "After you, Miles" when M gestures to him to go before him in the scene where they walk across the catwalk in Q's laboratory. M politely offers him to go first by saying "After you, Alexis" but Gogol replies "No, no, no after YOU Miles." This was done to show how the two heads of the respective rival agencies have put their differences aside.

Correction: General Gogol, M's Russian counterpart, is introduced in this film. In later films, he and M are on a first-name basis, and he calls him "Miles," at least once that I can immediately recall, in "A View To A Kill."

Captain Defenestrator

Correction: The movie never implies they're creating energy. Philip is looking to create a new energy source. If we suspend our disbelief that Philip was able to animate a completely inanimate substance, we can accept that liquid flubber converts energy at a spectacular rate. It could be a combination of chemical energy and stored energy, that is, the substance itself compresses like a spring.

Correction: The car explosion was outside the main gate and Ray escaped the main gates by dressing as a fireman. The getaway car was also outside the main gate and when they drove off, there was no front gate to exit.

Bishop73

Correction: It's not completely black. You can see throughout the scenes with Judge Lex that the left side of his helmet is faded and the red is not as sharp and partly worn away. The right side has more visible red to it and we see his right side at the gate. But, on the motorcycle, we see the faded left side, only in the dark so it may appear all black, but it's not.

Bishop73

Correction: Judge Lex does not ask Ma-Ma who the problem judge is, he knows it's Judge Dredd. He says it'll cost her a million credits and she questions this (she says "one million?") He is basically asking her do you know who Judge Dredd is and she says no, she does not know his reputation or what kind of judge he is, nor the extent of her problem. His reply is he does know who Judge Dredd is and that's why it's going to cost her one million credits.

Bishop73

Suggested correction: John was framed by Antoinette's step-mother (who stood to gain Antoinette's inheritance). People have been arrested for murder without a body being discovered first though. Additionally, we find out that the lawyer who helped framed John also paid him to confess to the crime and admitted to being mentally unstable. So nobody was even trying to look for Antoinette.

Bishop73

Correction: The pile of stones were not for his parents, nor was it a pile made that day. The hike was a tradition of Thomas and Bruce and during their hike they would collect a rock to add to their pile. So it's Bruce's pile and Thomas' pile. The size of the pile indicated how many times they went on the hike together. The scene is meant to convey Bruce's loneliness and loss. This is why Alfred does not go with Bruce (because it was only a hike he and his father took) and this is why after Bruce picked up the first stone, he pauses before picking up a second stone. The first stone was for his pile and he latter decides to pick up one for his father. Bruce's anger over the loss of his father is seen in his tantrum when he starts to throw the stones from the piles.

Suggested correction: By the time Babe Ruth played, substitutions were allowed at anytime. Thus, when Ruth showed up late and batted in the bottom of the 1st, he became a substitution for whomever was playing his position during the top of the 1st.

Bishop73

Correction: This is not entirely correct. Pioneer Trio (which included Bob Nolan) was hired in 1933 as staff singers for radio station kfwb where they sung the song "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" (initially "Tumbling Leaves") during some of their radio appearances. It then became their theme song when they were given their own radio show. It wasn't until May 1934 that Sunset Music purchased the copyrights to the song that the song was published, but it was on the radio before that.

Bishop73

Correction: First off, no one was "viciously beat" by Riggs. He head-butted one guy and kicked the second guy (not hard, just enough to push him away causing him to fall). However, before he shoots the fishtank, we see the guy who got head-butted get up when Vorstedt snaps his fingers.

Correction: Not all fax machines in 1989 used thermal paper. In 1985 GammaLink introduced a computer based fax board, and by 1989 other companies, such as Xerox, allowed fax machines to be linked to computers with add-on PC boards which allowed users to view (and print) fax information from their computers. Even if that wasn't the case, a file clerk or secretary may have made photocopies of the faxes to prevent them from rolling or being damaged.

Suggested correction: This type of hay balers have been in use since the 1850's. There's nothing "modern" about them.

Bishop73

Correction: That's how the trick is done in real life, the magician doesn't use the same card he had the spectator sign. In the film, they've been following the Frenchman and knows how he signs things. Then they forge his signature on a card and use that card during the trick. And it's not hard for a magician to "force" a spectator to pick a specific card, which is what's done in the film. You see this type of trick on shows like America's Got Talent where the magician has a judge sign a card but then he uses a different card and you can see the signatures don't match.
