Corrected entry: When Caesar tries to throw the grenade, he takes out the pin, then he gets the arrow in his chest. The grenade touches the ground but doesn't explode, he takes it again and throws it at the fuel tank, and now it does explode.

oswal13

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.

Thor (2011)

Correction: They were both sent to Earth via supernatural means. Normal laws of physics don't apply.

Phaneron

Corrected entry: At the football game the player who runs with the ball has the last name "Ward", a small reference to Burt ward who played Robin in the 60's TV series.

oswal13

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.

Power Rangers (2017)

Correction: The water could be some kind of an illusion. From the moment they land out of the water, they never appear fully wet aside from their heads and hair which gradually dry.

Corrected entry: Before the spaceship arrives it's daylight but moments before it lands it's completely dark.

oswal13

Correction: There is a lot of time between Elliot and the others landing in the forest and the spaceship landing. As Elliot and the others arrive at the forest its already dusk and the sun sets pretty quickly in autumn and behind a mountain.

Power Rangers (2017)

Correction: She fell into water. The height of the fall is never shown so we can't really speculate how far down it was, but it's very reasonable that the water broke her fall without hurting her.

Logan (2017)

Corrected entry: After his fight with x24 Logan is wearing a blue long sleeve shirt until they get to Eden, but when he wakes up he wears a white vest.

oswal13

Correction: It's not a vest, it's a ribbed a-frame undershirt, colloquially called a "wifebeater" shirt. He was wearing this under the blue shirt which the kids removed in order to treat his wounds.

Phixius

Corrected entry: After the big fight between Team Cap and Team Iron Man, Steve and Bucky fly to the bunker where the others winter soldiers are sleeping. Tony takes Rhodes to the doctor, then goes to the prison where Falcon and the others are caught, then flies to the bunker and he arrives almost at the same time as Steve and Bucky.

oswal13

Correction: It all depends on the speed at which Cap and Bucky could find the base plus any additional time that they might have needed to take to stop/refuel/sleep/etc. versus Tony/Iron Man's top speed when he departs for the base. (Especially as the Iron Man armor is faster than many military jets by this point in development.) It's clear that at least some time has elapsed by the time Tony leaves.

I was wondering this myself so I did some calculations of travel times. The big red flag is the travel from Germany to the Raft, which is in the middle of the Atlantic. Tony is shown making this flight in a helicopter, but a typical flight of this type would probably take about 4 hours. Now, remember that Sec. Ross needed time to arrest Cap's team, transport them to the Raft, process them, and they appear to have been in the cells for a while by the time Tony meets with them. So if it takes Tony 4 hours to fly to the Raft, and he does so after helping Ross arrest Cap's team, then takes Rhodey to the hospital, and likely gets treated for his own injuries while watching Rhodey get an MRI, It would be generous to say that Tony arriving at the Raft would be 7 to 8 hours after the airport battle at the earliest.

A plane trip from Germany to deep in Siberia would take 10-12 hours. While the Quinjet is much faster than a commercial flight, we see Cap is flying lower to the ground, probably to avoid whatever detection systems can be deployed to find the jet (assuming it has stealth capabilities to hide it from standard radar, but that Tony has advanced systems to find it). So while the quinjet is fast, a lower altitude would lengthen flight time. If Cap is keeping the plane under Mach 1 to avoid a detectable sonic boom, then he'd be going 600-700 mph, which would take 11-12 hours to fly to the Hydra base.

Vader47000

If the Iron Man armor can go Mach 5, it would take Tony about 2 hours to fly from the Raft to deep into Siberia. So if Tony leaves the Raft 8 or 9 hours after the airport battle, and it takes him 2-3 hours to fly to SIberia, then he is arriving in Siberia 10-12 hours after the airport battle. Thus, the idea that he arrives not long after Cap and Bucky is actually a plausible timeline.

Logan (2017)

Correction: She was following him. That's why they are there at the same time.

Logan (2017)

Correction: It's logical deduction. Pierce works for Dr. Rice, who knows that Logan is Laura's father, since he made her. If Gabriella was seeking help, Logan would be a logical option.

Logan (2017)

Corrected entry: If Pierce has a professional team and they want to catch Laura, and also Pierce says nobody shoot her because she heals, they should use a net or tranquilizer darts instead of trying to fight her.

oswal13

Correction: At this point Pierce and his men still consider her a scared little girl who they can easily subdue. They realise quickly she is fully capable of fighting back.

Batman Begins (2005)

Corrected entry: Bruce knows that Rachel was going to Arkham before his party, but he could not know that she was in the basement with Crane.

oswal13

Correction: He could know if he wiretapped the building. He was shown earlier in the movie to have wiretapped a conversation between Crane and Falcone.

Phaneron

Corrected entry: The wound and blood on the left side of Starlord's face disappears at the end of the film.

oswal13

Correction: By the end of the film the wound on Star Lord's face disappears because he wills it to disappear using his Celestial power. It's subtle but you can actually see it disappearing.
