Plot hole: In the scene when the guys bet on the outcome of the football game, their prediction is proven wrong when the vomit covered squirrel from the earlier scene runs onto the field and disrupts John Elway's pass. The movie takes place in Colorado, but the AFC Championship game featuring "The Drive" was played in Cleveland, OH. That's a lot of distance for a squirrel to travel in a couple hours.

Suggested correction: The movie is a comedy. Sure it's unlikely for a squirrel to travel that distance in the given time, but so is a time machine in the form of a hot tub. The scene is there to demonstrate the effects of altering the future, not to prove how fast a squirrel can be. In a comedy, this is exactly the kind of liberties one might expect from a scriptwriter.

Happy Gilmore (1996)

Corrected entry: When Happy and Bob Barker are fighting, just after Happy is sitting on Bob, Happy stands up and is grabbed around the throat by Bob. The camera cuts to Bob laying on the floor, meaning if he grabbed Happy his arms must be about six feet long.

Cheryl Gibson

Correction: Happy sits on his knees, so Bob Barker can grab his throat.

Godsend (2004)

Corrected entry: When the Adam clone writes "Zachary" on his burning school drawing, the marks for the letters are visible on the drawing before he writes over them.

Correction: It's common to teach children to draw with a pencil first so errors can be erased, before applying the definitive colouring.

Corrected entry: Rory's car changes from a convertible to a hard top with a sunroof throughout the pileup scene.

Correction: In the shots from the front you just see through Rory's rear window. Although it may look like a convertible at first, it appears not to be so when looking closely. The wind comes in from his side window.

Corrected entry: At the end when Doctor Evil is freezing himself for the second time, Austin is holding a machine gun. The shot cuts out and then back in as Austin shoots at Doctor Evil as he climbs into the metal egg thingy, but Austin is firing with a pistol. After the big boy has taken off again, it shows Austin again with a machine gun. (01:19:45)

Correction: First Austin has a machine gun which No. 2 takes from him. He then picks up a pistol from the table and fires. In the next shot you can see him pick up the machine gun (probably after putting down the pistol in the meantime).

Corrected entry: In the bathroom scene, when Austin is strangling the Irish assassin. The assassin had opened a hole in the wall to strangle Austin. After Austin drowns him in the toilet and Tom Arnold says something to Austin, you can see the opening in the wall in the stall next to the one the Irish man is stuck in. (00:33:15)

Correction: After watching this sequence frame by frame I must say that I haven't been able to spot the hole in the next stall. That the hole in the stall with the assassin had disappeared could just mean that Austin closed the hole with the same sliding door with which it was opened.

Corrected entry: Just before Foxxy collects Fat Bastard's "diaper" he looks at his poop and says something. You can see that only half of his body is casting a shadow, but the other half that is not casting a shadow is nowhere to be seen.

Jackie Menechino

Correction: The lamp isn't located right behind Fat Bastard, it's to the left, therefore we see half his shadow, without seeing his body.
