Get Out (2017)

Corrected entry: Chris could not get the cotton into his ears by himself because he was tied up the whole time.

oswal13

Correction: His hands were restrained, but his head was not. He simply leaned his head forward, closer to where his hand was located so could get the cotton into his ears. The cotton was shown in the hand rest, and his hands were restrained at the wrists, so could still move his hands in the area they are positioned in despite being tied down.

Casual Person

Corrected entry: After Marty takes a ride from a jeep to get to the classes he is using his headphones, which disappear outside the school.

oswal13

Correction: When Marty is holding onto the back of the jeep on the way to school, he is shown wearing headphones. After this, the scene ends and it cuts to the next scene, where he arrives at school (without headphones) and some time has gone by. Enough time would have passed in between scenes for him to put the headphones in his bag.

Justice League (2017)

Correction: He's the world's greatest detective. He put two and two together easily by watching it react to the thug and tracking their movements in the past. When we first see him fight one in the film, he makes it very clear this wasn't his first encounter with them. He's been tracking them for a while and studying them.

Justice League (2017)

Corrected entry: Before Diana talks with Cyborg on the street, she leaves her car and takes few steps, but in the next shot she is further from the car.

oswal13

Correction: She is in the middle of the driveway as she is walking away from her car down the sidewalk, exactly where she should be, there is no great distance traveled and there's nothing unnatural about her speed or her movements.

Justice League (2017)

Corrected entry: When Steppenwolf tries to steal the box from the Amazons, one them jumps on his back and has 3 wounds on her right arm which change shape and move between shots.

oswal13

Correction: She has three horizontal red lines painted on her left bicep that do not move or change. Steppenwolf throws her around which may make it appear that they change, however.

Justice League (2017)

Corrected entry: If the parademons react to fear, they should attack the Russian family but they don't.

oswal13

Correction: Either they were ordered not to attack the family by Steppenwolf because retrieving the Motherboxes is the number one priority, or they sensed that the father wasn't afraid of them since he had a rifle and was willing to fight them.

Absolutely wrong, was not priority for the parademons either to attack Steppenwolf but they did cause they react to their instinct.

Yep, the original entry feels perfectly correct, it's an inconsistency. They hide under the table in fear yet throughout the whole movie they stay untouched "because reasons", but the moment Steppenwolf falters, they devour him.

Sammo

Correction: No. It's there. Note the strap on his shoulder.

Correction: The strap is there. Look again.

Corrected entry: On the Asgardian ship Maw ties up Thor with some metal pieces, even on his mouth, but that patch disappears between shots.

oswal13

Correction: No it doesn't. It sometimes looks that way because in the distance you don't see his chin/neck area. But that's because of the distance. But, it is always there. Remember Maw didn't tie up his mouth until Heimdal died. So there was some time between when he was restrained and the deal.

Correction: Seeing as how they were able to locate Vision and Wanda in Scotland earlier in the movie, the stones most likely give off some signature that certain individuals can track if they are skilled enough. Thanos, for example, knew at the beginning of the film that two of the stones were located on Earth.

Phaneron

In that case Thanos could know where was the stone of the soul but he didn't, why he didn't use that skill then?

Thanos had already been in possession of the Mind Stone before he gave it to Loki. The Soul Stone had been hidden for years and no-one had ever claimed it.

Unlike the other Infinity Stones, the Soul Stone cannot simply be possessed by anyone that finds it, as they have to sacrifice what they love to gain it. Given that, it makes sense that it would prove difficult to locate.

Phaneron

Or they could have tracked the Quinjet they flew with the entire time.

Justice League (2017)

Corrected entry: If Steppenwolf could track two of the mother boxes without any trouble, why does he need to ask where the other one is?

oswal13

Correction: Because he knows where Atlantis and Themyscira are, and these places are very small in comparison with the rest of Earth.

He couldn't know that the boxes were in Themyscira and in Atlantis.

He knows that the Amazons and Atlanteans united with the tribes of man to defeat him, so he correctly deduces that each group will have one of the boxes.

But the last box was not hidden, Dr. Silas has it then Cyborg, and Steppenwolf could not know that the Atlantians and Amazons had the other boxes.

oswal13

Correction: He has a shield on each hand when he hits Thanos. It cuts away and they next time he is seen he has only one. It doesn't disappear suddenly, he removed it offscreen.

Corrected entry: When Ebony Maw attaches Strange to the wall, they are upside down but Ebony's hair doesn't react to gravity. (00:23:05)

oswal13

Correction: Maw was using his telekinetic powers to hover above the ground and be upside down. He likely used his telekinetic powers keep his body, hair and clothing in the same state to make it easier for him. You can tell this by the way his hair kind of floats when he is attaching Strange to the wall, compared to when it rests normally when he is right side up.

Ready Player One (2018)

Correction: This is actually incorrect. The race is in Manhattan. The portal Parzival takes to the race even shows as "Liberty Island." And they even race through China Town of Manhattan when they come across the T-Rex just before seeing King Kong on the Empire State Building. However, when Aech's truck knocks the 60's Batmobile off the bridge and she's stopped, there is a billboard behind them as Art3mis is ramping off the bridge that is advertising Delta City as a nod to RoboCop.

Quantom X

Correction: In addition to the billboard at the Batmobile bump, you can see the SILVERCUP letters on top of a building in a nod to Highlander, which also took place in New York City.

Halloween (2007)

Corrected entry: The way Michael pins a guy on the wall using a knife is exactly like he did in the original version.

oswal13

Correction: Given that this is a direct remake, especially in the second half, I don't think noting various similarities should be considered valid trivia. There'd need to be far too many entries, and it's not really something that'd be considered interesting or notable since it's expected.

Rampage (2018)

Corrected entry: After the chopper crashes, Davis' shirt is very clean in spite of the dust. (01:22:50)

oswal13

Correction: His shirt is not clean at all. It's got dirt, blood and rips all over it. Also a lot of that is ash, and the reason more of it is not on them is they were inside the chopper during the brunt of the fallout. So most of the bulk had settled by then. It's not unreasonable that his shirt would stay visibly white after that.

Quantom X

Corrected entry: Doc could not have the copy of the pic of him and Marty at the clock of the tower, because Marty has it in the DeLorean when he comes back to 1985.

oswal13

Correction: The technology existed in 1885 to produce duplicate copies of the same photograph. The photographer who took it would certainly be able to do so there and then. Even if that wasn't the case it's not a stretch that someone of Doc's abilities could manage it so that he and Marty could each have their own copy.

Correction: It's certainly possible that they got more than one photograph taken.

Greg Dwyer

Correction: There are several instances of duplicate (doppelganger) items and characters in the same timeline throughout the BTTF trilogy. For example, the DeLorean itself exists two and even three times within the same timeline. Doc and Marty and Jennifer and Biff all exist as doppelgangers within the same timeline. So, a duplicate photograph should be no problem in a storyline riddled with such inconsistencies.

Charles Austin Miller

This is incorrect... there is only 1 Marty, 1 Biff, 1 Doc, 1 Jennifer and 1 DeLorean. Yes, multiple versions may exist at the same time but in no instance is there a copy of the original person or car. For example, in BTTF II in 1955 there are 2 Marty's at the dance at the same time but the 2nd newer Marty is the same Marty from BTTF I. There should only be 1 copy of the picture, on the other hand, because it has not (to the best of our knowledge) been time traveling. The only explanations (for it to not be a mistake and these are still guesses) could be that they had a second picture taken even though it might be an expensive and time consuming process or Doc Brown could have gone into the future and taken it from Marty and, therefore, the picture could exist twice in 1 time period.

The photo time-travels at least twice in BTTF3: Once with Marty in the DeLorean on the explosive return trip, and again a few moments later when Doc arrives in the steam-powered locomotive time machine. We can reasonably assume that there was another, time-erased meeting between Marty and Doc (possibly in the future) wherein Marty explained how the photo was destroyed, prompting Doc to go back to the Old West and procure the photo again. Same exact photo X2, same scene, just as there were multiple characters and vehicles in the same timelines.

Charles Austin Miller

Correction: He just came from underneath a car that was being trampled and crushed by a stampede of dinosaurs who weigh thousands of pounds it's quite obvious he became momentarily deaf which explains why he didn't hear the Tyrannosaurus.

Joey221995

Corrected entry: The lagoon where the amphibian dinosaur is living is not connected to a river or to the sea, so it was impossible that he reached the open sea.

oswal13

Correction: It's not a lagoon. It's a very large enclosed area of the ocean.

Greg Dwyer

Correction: There's a canal connecting from the Lagoon, flowing through a part of the island leading to the ocean.

Deep Blue Sea (1999)

Corrected entry: After Carter sedates the shark at aquatica, he could not be able to carry him by himself to the lab.

oswal13

Correction: There is no time scale on the time between the shark being sedated and it arriving in the lab.

Coco (2017)

Corrected entry: While the pizza planet passes by Miguel's house, there is a frame on the wall that disappears between shots.

oswal13

Correction: It's not an error, new shot is from a different perspective and the objects on the wall are simply not visible.
