Corrected entry: One of the brain surgeons says about Cain's brain, "it's nice and clean in here, there's no damage", except we see throughout the film Cain using the drug Nuke, even a new variation of it called Blue Velvet. When he injects it he's with his chemist Frank, and mentions two of its ingredients, "benzadrine and scopolamine" - no way his brain would be nice and clean.

Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco (1996)
Corrected entry: Bob's car is a 1991 Jeep Cherokee briarwood (XJ) but when they're in Canada it turns into a 1995 Chevrolet Blazer (S-10).
Correction: Because they flew to Canada. It's probably a rental.

The Silence of the Lambs (1991)
Corrected entry: A SWAT officer gets the go-ahead to use his Browning HP to shoot an unconscious Lecter (actually Pembry) in the leg to immobilize him. he fires the pistol extremely close in proximity to his face, something a real officer would not do, as the motion of the slide would harm or burn his face and he could very nearly go deaf. (01:24:05)
Correction: Can't really tell by the angle how close he is to his face. Slides only blow back about an inch or so, and wouldn't burn you either way. SWAT teams and police wear deep embedded ear plugs when in a probable situation that they'll most likely have to shoot their weapon.

Halloween 4 (1988)
Corrected entry: Michael throws Dr. Loomis out a window which surely would have killed him, but he shows up near the end at the Carruthers house perfectly fine (albeit with cuts on his face).
Correction: Since when in Hollywood has being thrown through a window killed a person (assuming not a multi story fall). Even in real life people occasionally walk away largely un-injured from accidents that they SHOULD have been largely damaged by.

Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: At the end it is in the middle of the day when Eddie enters Mrs Chen's store, but when he exits the store only a few minutes later after Venom eats the robber, it is suddenly night.
Correction: At the end it's only daytime when Venom and Eddie are talking about getting something to eat, but they're not actually next to Mrs. Chen's store and have to walk there. The scene cuts to him then entering the store (rather than showing him walking there and the whole passage of time). When he enters you can tell it's night/dark now because a car is seen driving with its lights on.

From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
Corrected entry: Why didn't they (Seth, Kate, Scott or Jacob) also pick up Richie's Norinco 1911A1 and use that against the vampires and carve some crosses into the bullets as well, instead of just using Seth's .44 Astra Terminator?
Correction: 1. He basically shot the gun empty and it's possible he didn't have any spare bullets for it, nor would anyone care to check his corpse for it. It's also a .45 so Seth's bullets are useless for it. 2. They pretty quickly figure out guns don't do squat against these things and go over to stakes and holy water. 3. They don't know if putting crosses on bullets work, and it's a lot of work to do this for maybe 12 or 20 bullets which isn't going to be enough to kill that many of them. The Astra Terminator is Seth's gun, so he uses it still as he is used to using it, reloading it, etc (and also used later as a plot device).

Homeward Bound (1993)
Corrected entry: Throughout the film, Chance is referred to as a 'pup' namely by Shadow, when he's actually fully grown and around the same height as Shadow.
Correction: Shadow isn't saying Chance is actually a puppy. Chance is just called a "pup" because he's immature like a puppy. It's the same as referring to a young adult as "kid."

Ready Player One (2018)
Corrected entry: I-R0k could have just immediately log out of the oasis by removing his VR Visor like Art3mis did in AECH's shop instead of trying to reach a portal when Sorrento activated the catalyst.
Correction: This has already been corrected. In a PvP region like battleworld there is more needed than a simple removal of the VR glasses to log out or anyone about to be killed can prevent that by simply removing their VR, which would be cheating. Only a portal can log someone off. Aech's shop isn't a PvP region of course.
5th May 2018
Starship Troopers (1997)
Corrected entry: After Johnny kills lieutenant Rasczak by shooting him, his body suddenly disappears after the tanker bug reveals itself.
Correction: The body is there, right before the Tanker bug comes up you see his body lying there. Later you can't see it anymore as it's too low or has been dragged under the sand by the bugs.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)
Corrected entry: When Wheatley pulls a tooth out of a juvenile stegosaurus with his pliers, it shows him yanking out a bottom tooth, but when he adds the tooth to his collection it is an upper tooth. (00:49:00)

Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: When the newly formed 'Venom' breaks out of the Life Faculty (which looks like a hi-tech research faculty) they don't know who stole the organism. They could just check the security cam feed, instead of wasting time interrogating the doctor.
Correction: The facility is secret and doing some pretty unethical stuff. It's possible they intentionally don't have cameras hanging around recording all the illegal activity they are doing. Especially in the location they are testing humans. Or else Dr. Skirth wouldn't have needed Eddie to take photos and film for evidence either, just take the security camera footage.

An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Corrected entry: When David turns into a werewolf for the first time and starts killing people, his fangs and mouth are covered in blood. When he wakes up in the zoo, he doesn't have any blood on his lips or hands or any part of his body, and he certainly should have tasted blood in his mouth.
Correction: David has turned back to human form, so his body has gone through a major transformation. There is no reason for there to be any blood left on his teeth or a bad taste in his mouth just like there is no trace of him being a werewolf. After all he is left dazed and confused by the experience.

Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: When the Malaysian ambulance carrying the infected female EMT is overturned on the road, the number "911" is visible on the ambulance. The Malaysian EMS number is "999", not 911 which is used in the USA.
Correction: Actually it reads "119" which is probably just the number for the ambulance itself, not the EMS number.
15th Oct 2018
Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: People's breath can be seen at the crash site that's supposed to be in Malaysia. It doesn't get cold enough there to see your breath.
Correction: It doesn't have to be extremely cold for you to see your breath. It also depends heavily on the amount of humidity in the year. As long as condensation can occur, you will be able to see your breath. Also, it can get surprisingly cool at night in some regions of Malaysia.
8th Oct 2018
Halloween 4 (1988)
Corrected entry: Dr. Loomis says to Hoffman that Haddonfield is a 4 hour drive, but when he's trying to get a ride there ultimately with the Reverend the sign says Haddonfield is 119 miles, which wouldn't take 4 hours.
Correction: And we don't know how far he's traveled since he gave his estimated time.

Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: Venom kills the mugger at the end in the convenience store, but when Eddie is leaving there is no sign of the body behind him.
Correction: Venom ate him.
15th Oct 2018
Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: When Carlton Drake is giving the tour to the children, he gives the pin on his lapel to a girl, but it's suddenly on his lapel again when he's interviewed by Eddie.
Correction: His assistant says he needs to get ready for his interview, implying some time passes between the two scenes. He simply put another one on in between scenes, since it has his company's logo on it, and he'd want to show it off.
9th Oct 2018
Venom (2018)
Corrected entry: Dan gets out of the car from the driver's seat, and then the car suddenly drives away.
Correction: He gets out of the back seat on the driver's side. Someone else is driving. They most likely took a Lyft or Uber. Or even had a friend drive them.
24th Sep 2018
The Terminator (1984)
Corrected entry: During the final car chase the Terminator shoots at Sarah and Reese with a nickel S&W Model 15. We never see him obtain this revolver, the only weaponry we see him acquire is the AR-15, .45 longslide, SPAS 12, and Uzi 9mm but he never asked for the nickel S&W at the gun shop.
Correction: In the scene at the gun shop, the revolver is on the counter next to the other weapons. Here is a link. Http://www.imfdb.org/images/b/b1/TerminatorModel15.jpg.
Correction: The gun shop scene begins with the terminator already purchasing weapons. Its more likely he has already asked for this one before the scene begins.
6th Jun 2018
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Corrected entry: How does Alex suddenly know that the werewolf cornered by the police was David? For all everyone else knew, it was just a giant, bloodthirsty mad dog. Not to mention, throughout the movie until that point, she didn't even believe in David's ramblings about being a werewolf.
Correction: That's kind of the point. She finally believes him and puts 2 and 2 together.
