The Punisher (2004)

Revealing mistake: When the older Saint boy is pointing his gun at Frank's chest, you can see the squib under his shirt, you don't actually see him get shot until the flashback later in the movie, but you can see that the blood explodes from the same spot.

Revealing mistake: When the Hummer is flying through the air, you can see that most of the underside of the vehicle is missing, the engine, transmission, driveline, fuel tanks, all gone.

Revealing mistake: This concerns the criminal to Jesus' left on the cross. If you pay close attention to the criminal's right hand, you can tell that the part of his hand that is nailed (past the area of the thumb) is obviously not his. When he moves around this part doesn't, and his wrist moves independently from the rest of his hand. Difficult to explain, but it is there.

Stargate SG-1 (1997)

Tangent - S4-E12

Revealing mistake: When Jack and Teal'c are first shown in the fighter when it first enters space, if you pay attention to the stars in the background, they tend to move in a rather jerking fashion.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl mistake picture

Revealing mistake: The clasp closure on the medallion's chain is NOT the sort that just comes apart when yanked on, evident in the many close-ups of the clasp throughout the film. Yet there are a number of scenes in which the chain is just pulled and it comes off easily: Elizabeth pulls it off aboard the Pearl, to barter with; Barbossa pulls it off, during her blood ritual; Elizabeth pulls it off to give to Will, aboard the Interceptor... The chain was secured to her neck with sellotape, in order for it to come off quickly for the shots. (01:12:15 - 01:19:28)

Bulletproof Monk (2003)

Revealing mistake: When Kar is fighting the bad guy on the roof, the guy holds him up by the throat supposedly choking him, but if you look closely, you can see that he is holding Kar under the chin, not choking him. (00:58:00)

Revealing mistake: When Axel shoots the guy on the tracks of the subway ride, you can see a little wire flip up from his leg when he falls. This is the wire that goes to the squib in the guy's shirt.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Teal'c never dies in this episode. He goes into v-fib, but that's not death.

Shrek (2001)

Revealing mistake: When Donkey and Shrek are walking through the garden area, they pass some sheaves of wheat (presumably.) If you look carefully, you will notice that the wheat stalks were cut, not pulled up, but what were they cut from? There is only bare earth. (00:27:45)

South Park (1997)

Revealing mistake: When Gandalf first sends the Hobbits on their journey, they are in the forest and the Hobbits walk up to Gandalf and the horse, you can tell that the Hobbits are dressed up little people rather than the actors themselves. You can tell by their stature, and how they walk. (00:43:05)

Bachelor Party (1984)

Revealing mistake: When the Hotel manager walks in the recently vacated room, we see the piano collapse. If you look closely, you can tell that the front two legs were just pulled back under the piano causing it to collapse.

Miss Congeniality (2000)

Revealing mistake: In the opening shootout in the kitchen, the bad guy fires off a few rounds at an officer, the last of which has a delayed reaction, the squib does not detonate til about half a second after the gun is fired. (00:06:20)

Eraser (1996)

Revealing mistake: At the end right before the van blows up, we see John and the girl get in to it - if you look very closely, John disappears at the exact second the door closes. (01:46:20)
