South Park (1997)

Whale Whores - S13-E11

Corrected entry: Cartman sings "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga while playing Rock Band. He sings the lyrics, "P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face." However, the actual lyrics to the song are, "P-p-p-poker face, f-f-f*** her face." The South Park version of this song is cleaner than the actual song. (00:04:08)

Correction: It's not the South Park version; it's the Rock Band version. In a game that would be played by children, the game certainly couldn't have that kind of language, so the game uses the radio edit.

Believe it or not, this song actually played completely uncensored on radio stations. That's the version that most people have heard, and most people are not aware that those lyrics are in the song. I'm just more inclined to believe that the show's creators were one of those that didn't catch it, because with South Park being what it is, I really don't see why they wouldn't just go for it if they did catch it.

The game Rock Band literally uses the radio edit version where the swear words are not used. This shows that they are correct, not that they missed something.

Hey Arnold! (1996)

Correction: Plenty of people don't look before sitting down. I once had someone put a pin on my seat in school and I didn't see it.

LorgSkyegon

I can understand one not catching a small pin on their seat (or clear coloured glue). In fact, that is a pretty common prank. The thing is, Helga put a whole bunch of white glue on Arnold's chair, something so blatantly visible, unlike the other stuff I mentioned. It's just strange to me that Arnold wouldn't see something like that before sitting down in his chair. This also goes for my other entry that you added the same correction for.

Toy Story 4 (2019)

Corrected entry: When the stroller rolls out of the antique store and crashes into the railing, in the shot where the lady runs up to it, look at the attendant inside the ticket booth in the background. She is completely frozen, with no animation on her at all. (01:17:05)

zenee

Correction: This is simply wrong. The attendant can be seen moving and reacting to what’s going on.

You are likely referring to the shot before the stroller crashes into the railing. The attendant is moving there, but after the stroller crashes and the lady runs up to it, she becomes motionless.

zenee

Correction: When the lady runs up to the crashed baby carriage, in this shot the attendant in the booth in the background (seen in this specific shot for 2 seconds) you described as "motionless" and "frozen, with no animation on her at all." This attendant's stance and facial expression realistically convey shock at what has just happened, so she stands there staring with her eyes wide open and her mouth agape for the 2 seconds. Her animation is appropriate for this situation. There's really no mistake, and there's nothing revealing about it.

Super Grover

I suppose I put this mistake under the wrong category, but I never stated that the attendant doesn't react to what happened. You mentioned her stance and facial expression, and I agree with that. But here's the thing: the attendant is standing still, which is fine, but there is no movement to make her look... well, alive. As a result, she looks like a statue. It's an animation error. That's what I'm saying. If I'm still wrong, please explain why, because it really doesn't look right to me.

zenee

Within the 2 seconds this attendant is visible, she doesn't look like a statue; she just looks completely transfixed and shocked - perfectly appropriate for the moment. And actually, movement to make her look "alive" is unnecessary because for those 2 seconds she's seen, the fact that she's standing there transfixed, with her shocked expression, is quite human in this instance. Her animation does not appear odd or weird in any way, to me.

Super Grover

I mean, she still looks off to me, but fair enough, I suppose.

zenee

I watched this shot a few more times; it's starting to look a bit more natural. I guess with it being a 3D character model, it looked like there wasn't any sign of life with no motion added to her, hence my original thoughts. Despite all that, your argument about her just being appropriately transfixed and shocked is growing on me.
