Super Grover

Correction: A misspelling on a sign at any given restaurant is a pretty common occurrence, so an eatery in Bikini Bottom is not exempt.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In the shot where Dobby tells Harry he must punish himself, you can see a sweater on the end of the bed, next to where Harry sits. In earlier shots, the end of the bed had no sweater on it. (00:04:45)

Correction: From the moment Harry walks into his bedroom and Dobby bows to him, to the moment Harry tries to catch Dobby, who holds Harry's letters, there is a striped sweater/shirt lying near the edge of Harry's bed, near the wardrobe. Seen on fullscreen and widescreen DVDs.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In the shot when Dobby is punishing himself after agreeing with Harry about not meeting many decent wizards, Dobby begins hitting his head against Harry's drawers. You can see in the upper left corner a piece of clothing hanging out, and in the lower right corner a green piece of clothing. In the next shot, the green clothing is gone, but reappears again in the following shot. (00:04:15)

Correction: The green piece of clothing that hangs out the right corner, of the bottom drawer (there are five drawers), is in every single shot where that corner is visible, during the entire scene in Harry's bedroom, in both the widescreen and fullscreen DVDs.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Dobby is in Harry's room in the beginning of the movie he punishes himself by hitting his head into something. First it is a wardrobe and in the next shot it is a chest of drawers.

Correction: Dobby only bangs his head into the chest of five drawers and later, the lamp. Dobby never bangs his head into the wardrobe, Harry simply tosses Dobby in there when he hears Vernon coming.

Face/Off (1997)

Corrected entry: When Castor arrives to taunt Archer at the prison, he holds up his hand with the wedding ring on it. The hand we see in closeup is much hairier than John Travolta's hand.

Correction: That hand is not "much hairier" than Travolta's. John has an ample amount of dark hair on his hands and fingers and the close-up is consistent with that.

Face/Off (1997)

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the movie when Archer is with his son, the merry-go-round is going one way, then, in another shot it is going the opposite direction.

Correction: The carousel is running anticlockwise in every shot.

Face/Off (1997)

Corrected entry: When Archer (Castor Troy at the time) takes the cigarettes from the daughter's room, and goes to light one up, when he opens the pack, the end of the smokes is orange, yet after Archer takes a puff, the entire cigarette is white with no orange end.

Correction: When he takes the cigarette from Jamie's pack it is entirely white and stays that way.

Face/Off (1997)

Corrected entry: When Dubov is in prison and is about to be electrocuted, his boots are taken off and he is left with inner boots. After the shooting and killing, he scrambles on the floor and is barefoot when he throws the cot against the security guards, then he climbs up the stairs and has the inner boots on again.

Correction: First, Dubov is not about to be "electrocuted", he is in the prison clinic to receive electric shock treatment for misbehavior and second, he is actually barefoot when the scene opens. Third, it is Sean (as Castor Troy) whose magnetic boots are taken off, when he is dragged into the clinic and he is left with regular boots. Fourth, during the rest of this scene, Dubov remains barefoot and Sean (as Castor) wears the boots.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Harry is in the Owlery, an owl flies in through the window and lands on a post. When Harry takes the letter off it, it shows the window again, but the beams on it are arranged differently. (00:40:00)

Correction: They are two different windows opposite each other. The owl Sirius sent flies in through one window, as Harry stands by another window on the opposite side. When Harry takes the note from the owl and reads it the window he stood by is seen behind him. The windows are consistent.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In the scene where Barbossa retrieves his piece of eight from Ragetti, it pops out of his left eye. However in the scenes following he wears an eyepatch on his right eye and his left eye is normal.

Correction: Ragetti's wooden eye "pops out" of his right (viewer's left) eye socket and is consistent with the rest of the film.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In the ending shot, as everyone is leaving and walking down the path, Luna is walking behind Hermione. Then she comes from behind and is walking beside her, yet when it cuts, Luna is now back behind Hermione and out-of-sight.

Hamster

Correction: Just before the first shot cuts away, in which the camera moves to directly in front of Hermione, Luna never comes up from behind Hermione and walks beside her, she still remains behind her when it cuts away. In the second shot, the camera is positioned to Hermione's right, directly in front of Ron, and because of the angle change Luna can't easily be seen behind Hermione.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: Just after Davy Jones kills Mercer, he descends the stairs to the main deck of the Flying Dutchman to find Jack Sparrow. As Jones comes down the stairs a gold chain can be seen hanging from his belt, but when he draws his sword (and in all following scenes) the chain is gone. It's not the string on the hilt of the sword because the string is too short.

Correction: Actually, it IS the cord with tassle that is dangling off the hand guard on the sword hilt. There is no "gold chain" hanging from his belt.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: In the scene nearing the end where they join up on the small island where Jack gets traded for Elizabeth, Davey Jone's shadow is the shape of a human.

Correction: On the sand pit, when Jack is traded for Will, not Elizabeth, the shadow that Jones casts on the sand has absolutely no distinctive characteristics that reveal it to be human or otherwise.

Show generally

Corrected entry: London is able to pass other grades and go to High School, even though it is confirmed in every episode that she's not the sharpest pencil in the box.

Correction: This isn't a 'plot hole' by any interpretation. This sort of thing, and worse (such as high school students who can't read), occurs on a regular basis in the school system. And the fact that her father is a multi-millionaire, who would make donations to the school doesn't hurt either.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: Charlotte's water breaks when she is standing on the sidewalk; for one thing, there is no sound of water hitting the ground and secondly, there is no wet patch on the ground when the shot zooms out moments later.

Correction: Well, based on my own fun experiences in this area, I will tell you that for two of my children, though I keenly felt my water break there was such a minute amount of fluid that it was not obvious to anyone around me.

I Am Legend (2007)

Corrected entry: When Robert Neville sees Anna at his house after he wakes up, Anna was seen going to the cooker wearing a pink dressing gown with Ethan in a striped T-shirt. This changes with the next shot of Anna and Ethan who are wearing a grey top and a dark grey/black T-shirt respectively.

Correction: He does not really 'see' Anna and Ethan when he first gets to the kitchen, he is actually envisioning his wife and daughter. A moment later, reality sets in and then he truly sees Anna and Ethan, hence the change of clothing.

Super Grover

Correction: The change in clothing is because at the first moment in the scene his mind hallucinates his late wife and child in the kitchen, for reasons that should be self-evident. In the succeeding moment his mind corrects this hallucination with Anna and Ethan.

Corrected entry: During the song "Gotta Go My Own Way" Gabriella gives Troy her necklace and she leaves. Then during the song "Everyday," Gabriella comes out of nowhere wearing the necklace. Where did she get it from?

Correction: Of course she is wearing the necklace again, that's the point. After Troy goes back to just being kitchen help, makes up with Chad and the others, then agrees to sing with Sharpay as well as to learn the new song, behind the scenes Ryan, Kelsi and whomever else sneakily arrange for Gabriella to show up at the talent show. Considering the fact that Gabriella came back to the resort and then learned the new song, it is also obvious that behind the scenes either she or one of their friends simply retrieved her 'T' necklace (from Troy's bedroom or locker), so when Troy sees her wearing it again he would instantaneously know that 'they' are okay.

The Rock (1996)

Corrected entry: In the beginning when Hummel is talking to his wife's gravestone, the emblem on his hat is broken.

Correction: Actually, the United States Marine Corps insignia is not broken, it is perfectly intact. The USMC seal is of an 'eagle' perched atop a 'globe' with a diagonal 'foul anchor' running through it. The same Marine Corps emblem is on his dress uniform's collars (with left and right facing anchors).

Super Grover

Corrected entry: The words that the kids spray-painted on Jimmy's trailer disappear a few scenes later.

Correction: The graffiti is spray painted on the side of the trailer with the three windows, right beside the ladder on its right. It is the opposite side of the trailer that has no windows and no graffiti.

Super Grover

Corrected entry: When Troy wrote "Let's go" he would've had to write it upside-down and back-to-front for Chad to see it the right way. (00:23:35)

Correction: Since we never see onscreen the position of his waiter order pad, as he actually writes the words "let's go" on that top sheet, all he would have had to do is flip the small pad over before we view the close-up of those words on the pad. And considering how they were all rushing about after hearing Fulton's voice, Troy simply grabbed the pad and quickly wrote the words (all offscreen) and then stood there nonchalantly when Fulton walked in. There is no 'mistake' nor is there anything odd about it.
