Continuity mistake: The photos Charles is holding of the Maitlands in sheets are 35mm photos based on the shape of the photo. The pictures Lydia took of them were Polaroid which are square and not as detailed or sharp as the other pictures, much less the same shape even if they were blown up.

Beetlejuice (1988)
13th Jan 2012
Beetlejuice (1988)
Continuity mistake: When the fly lands in the cemetery, the ground is some sort of spiked rubber. When the camera is flying in, we see the cemetery is actually dirt and sand glued to the board.
13th Jan 2012
Beetlejuice (1988)
Other mistake: If the Maitlands cannot be seen in a reflection being ghosts, then Lydia would not have seen them in the attic window in her camera, as that uses a mirror to reflect the image through the viewfinder.
13th Jan 2012
Beetlejuice (1988)
Other mistake: When Adam's headless body runs into the hallway to go shut the attic door, you can see a reflection of his body when he crashes into the banister. Ghosts don't have reflections, as seen in the beginning.
12th Jan 2012
Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)
Continuity mistake: The fog on the bridge at the end sequence varies greatly from very thick (when on the ground looking from behind the police) to very thin from aerial shots to almost non existent in some overhead shots.
12th Jan 2012
Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)
Continuity mistake: The number of primates running around at the end of the movie seems to be exponentially larger than the amount of them that were in the zoo and the sanctuary.
11th Jan 2012
Phone Booth (2002)
Other mistake: In one scene we see a "chalk outline" on the ground of where the pimp's body was laying. This is something that is never done in real life given it can contaminate the crime scene. (00:34:00)
29th Dec 2011
The Brady Bunch Movie (1995)
Audio problem: When Jan hits Mr. Dittmeyer with her bike, she drives off with the cord and handset attached to the pedal, however we hear someone saying "hello" which would have not been possible given it was no longer connected to the base.
29th Dec 2011
Little Fockers (2010)
Revealing mistake: When Jack is doing a search for "Andi Garcia" on Google, the links show up in the searches he does as purple and not blue which means that they have already been visited, despite the fact that he's supposed to be doing this search for the first time.
29th Dec 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
Continuity mistake: Outside the court at 2:15 when Fletcher is first talking to his son in his cell, the clock has the sun lighting up half its face. When he hangs up, the sun disappears from shining on the clock only to reappear again towards the end of the scene when he is gagging and walking away from his client.
29th Dec 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Fletcher spits water on himself while listening to the tape in court, the amount of water on the left lapel of his jacket changes from shot to shot from a little to a lot.
29th Dec 2011
Tremors (1990)
Revealing mistake: When the graboid goes to launch out of the side of the cliff, you can see the wall is fake because it moves in and out right before it breaks through.
29th Dec 2011
Tremors (1990)
Revealing mistake: Given that the store is a set to move up and down to simulate the graboid attacking it, we can actually see the store's brick walls bouncing in the shot before the effect was used.
29th Dec 2011
Tremors (1990)
Revealing mistake: After the lawnmower flips over, the camera angle from behind it shows the steering mechanism that's attached to the front wheels would not be on a normal one.
29th Dec 2011
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
Other mistake: When Frodo is riding along with Gandalf the Grey as they pass the kids in the cart, we see a shot of the path they are riding along that shows an automobile tire tread in it.
1st Dec 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Continuity mistake: When Carrie Fisher is shooting at the Blues Brothers in the tunnel, there are 3 pipes that run along the left side of the wall that aren't alongside Carrie when the camera angle changes to shots of her.
30th Nov 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Continuity mistake: When the Blues Brothers first go into the tax building in Chicago, the building has gold numbers above the door that they are blocking from the inside that read 118. When the rest of the cops and a firetruck pass by, we now see the numbers are black and not even the same shape as the gold ones.
30th Nov 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Revealing mistake: When the Chicago police cars have the first major pileup underneath the elevated roadway, a number of the cop cars are seen flipping over by using two rail-like beams along the road. When the rest of the cop cars come to a stop in the next shot, the beams are gone.
30th Nov 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Continuity mistake: When the cop car comes out to chase the Blues Brothers from behind the sign, the car starts off directly behind the sign. When the Good Ole Boys pass in the Winnebago, we see the cop car is before the sign and already has a running start.
30th Nov 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Continuity mistake: When the Blues Brothers go off the highway down the steep embankment, the cops are directly behind them, however when we cut to the shot of the first cop car crashing, the Blues Brothers' vehicle is nowhere to be seen on the side road up ahead.
30th Nov 2011
Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son (2011)
Continuity mistake: At the end, Trent texts Malcolm that he's "in library", however when Malcolm looks at the text on his phone, the "in" is missing.
30th Nov 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Revealing mistake: When the cop car hits the Winnebago to chase the Blues Brothers, we see a puff of white smoke emit from under the cop car as it rolls over that was used to help flip it. The pole can also be seen rolling around near the top of the screen in that same shot.
30th Nov 2011
The Blues Brothers (1980)
Continuity mistake: After the cop car hits the Winnebago, we see the car's back window is completely gone in two separate shots. However, when the camera angle does a close up on the car, we see a cop pushing out the rear windshield which was simply not there the shot before.
28th Nov 2011
Dinner for Schmucks (2010)
Continuity mistake: At the end when Barry puts the Evel Knievel display on top it's off center to the right of the box below it. When they cut to the next shot far away it's centered, only to go back to being off when they go close up again.
16th Nov 2011
Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002)
Continuity mistake: The amount of urine (apple juice) that Austin hands to the doctor seems to vary up and down between shots as he's spilling it all over.
26th Oct 2011
Zookeeper (2011)
Revealing mistake: When Gryffin first hears the animals talk to him, he runs home and at one point takes a bath. If you look at the bubbles, they move in a solid mass when he shifts around in the tub indicating they are not only fake but not real bubbles.
24th Oct 2011
Lake Placid (1999)
Factual error: Grizzly bears are not present as far East as Maine and therefore would not have been anywhere near Lake Placid.
20th Oct 2011
Terra Nova (2011)
Continuity mistake: Skye and Josh are swimming by the rocks with the geometric drawings. When they get out of the water they focus on Josh and it's sunny on both of them, and overcast when they focus on Skye, from shot to shot.
20th Oct 2011
WarGames (1983)
Continuity mistake: Towards the end when the NORAD door is closing, they keep showing it opened further from shot to shot in order to delay how quickly the door actually is closing vs. how slow it really would have had to move in order to allow David and Dr. Falken to actually have still made it in.
16th Oct 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
13th Oct 2011
Scary Movie (2000)
Continuity mistake: When Cindy is walking away from the bum after giving him a sandwich, we see a white VW van driving away over her left shoulder. When the bum throws the sandwich back at her the van is parked back by the sign again.
9th Oct 2011
WarGames (1983)
Factual error: While it makes for a great story for the movie, the reality is that all computer systems used by government agencies - especially in the DoD - are required to provide their source code for thorough inspection to ensure there are no back doors, hidden subroutines or other types of software code that are not relevant to the task designed for. Given the critical nature of this system being in control of launching nuclear missiles, the reality is that none of the games that Falken wrote - much less the whole routine to allow it to simulate a game like this - would still be in, for obvious reasons. Of course it could be argued Falken hid this, however given the lack of complexity for a computer of this era, it's highly unlikely.
9th Oct 2011
Pitch Black (2000)
Other mistake: When Fry is looking around for Riddick at the end, she's holding the blue bottle of bugs to light her way. The blue light on her face isn't from the bottle as she holds it, as she's circling around in some cases with the bottle completely behind her, yet her face is still lit up blue.
9th Oct 2011
The Gate (1987)
Other mistake: Despite the noise of the demon in the house, the tornado clouds outside, the flashing lights from the demon exploding and the fireworks in the sky - not a single neighbor is anywhere to be seen. Even after daylight breaks the neighborhood is a ghost town as we pan away from the actors.
6th Oct 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Continuity mistake: When Pee Wee walks up to the bums at the drive in, the soda falls over in the holder in his right arm. When he steps in to give them their snow cones, it's instantly standing again only to see it fallen over again when he watches the fight scene with the ninjas on screen.
6th Oct 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Revealing mistake: Throughout the studio scene where Pee Wee is shot from the front being chased by security, the fact that his bike is on a rig can be seen by how rigid the bike is when he pedals it and it doesn't move side to side like it does when he's riding it freely in all the other shots.
6th Oct 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Revealing mistake: After the bar scene where Pee Wee leaves riding the motorcycle, we can see it's a stuntman, given the different physique of having wider shoulders and a fuller head of hair than that of Pee Wee.
6th Oct 2011
Bridesmaids (2011)
Continuity mistake: When Annie is driving on a 2 lane country road between two large fields from the bridal shower, we see Megan drive past her with the car full of puppies. The issue is that Megan was filmed on an entirely different road that has a fence, walkway, double yellow line and is 4 lanes wide - nowhere near what Annie is driving on.
6th Oct 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Continuity mistake: After throwing the candy to the bikers, Pee Wee is holding a box of Milk Duds and a candy bar. After he watches himself in the movie, the candy bar disappears then reappears behind the Milk Duds between shots. Then in the next shot of him skipping towards Dottie - all of the candy disappears completely.
6th Oct 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Other mistake: The security footage that Terry shows of Pee Wee going through the Godzilla set is simply a black and white version of the same footage we see as movie watchers of the film, not from the camera being used to shoot the movie.
6th Oct 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Continuity mistake: In the studio scene, the tow rope from the boat flies through the area and attaches to the antlers of Santa's reindeer to start dragging the sleigh. In the subsequent shots of the boat and sleigh, the tow rope is attached firmly to a bar between the reindeer.
6th Oct 2011
Sweet Home Alabama (2002)
Factual error: While it may be an artistic thing for the movie, fulgerite (lightning + sand) does not create anything near as ornate, long, crystal clear or tentacle like as portrayed in the movie. If anything it leaves tubular or clump like structures that are more reminiscent of kitty litter.
4th Oct 2011
Young Frankenstein (1974)
Audio problem: At the end of the movie when The Monster is shaking hands with Inspector Kemp, he pulls his prosthetic arm off. Inspector Kemp is heard saying, "Oh shit," however his mouth says just "Oh."
23rd Sep 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Continuity mistake: When Pee Wee is dressed as a nun on the sound stage, he looks impatiently at the bike - we see only a shadow from the bike on the left side. Then from the front shot, there is now the shadows of the actors right all behind the bike which weren't there in the prior shot.
4th Sep 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: The distance of Dr. Marshall and team when being chased by the Allosaur and T-Rex in the desert scene varies from being only a few feet away to instantly being hundreds of feet away.
4th Sep 2011
Piranha 3D (2010)
Continuity mistake: When Jake goes into the water with the tow rope around his waist, the rope is going over the top and through the railing of the boat. When he gets pulled away with the girl, the rope is seen down in the water.
4th Sep 2011
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)
Continuity mistake: The cracks in the rear window of the lab truck when it's hanging over the side of the cliff seem to vary between the shots outside underneath vs shots inside as to where they are in the glass. There is a major one above (not underneath) Sarah's hand that's visible from inside and not from underneath.
4th Sep 2011
Piranha 3D (2010)
Factual error: All propane tanks for the last 30 or so years have a safety valve which prevents them from simply releasing gas when the valve is turned on. Given these tanks looked brand new and Jake only turns them on, the gas would not have been released.
Suggested correction: The propane tanks they use are PEN15 models and the safety mechanism is easily circumvented.
29th Aug 2011
Life as We Know It (2010)
Factual error: The movie starts off saying its 2007 and Smart Cars were not sold in the US until 2008.
21st Aug 2011
The A-Team (2010)
Other mistake: Towards the end when we see one of the $100 bill plates up close, the plate is not of any money ever put into production in the US. While I know most movies do not try and use actual money, there are things that don't match how real money is made: serial numbers are not on the plates, circle around Ben's head doesn't go to the border, "The United States of America" is missing above the "100" on the left, just to name a few.
21st Aug 2011
The A-Team (2010)
Revealing mistake: When the 2nd BMW SUV is blown up on the dock, you can see the underside of the vehicle which reveals how they removed the drive shaft to help reduce the weight of it in order to flip it easier. There are also 2 jets of white gas seen coming from 2 pipes under the rear bumper which are what launched the vehicle end over end.
21st Aug 2011
All About Steve (2009)
Continuity mistake: The cardboard sign behind the pink one under Mary's arm when they decide to drive to Texas for the storm changes from vertical to horizontal to vertical positions between camera shots.
21st Aug 2011
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)
Revealing mistake: When the dinosaurs are released from their cages and are running around the camp, a jeep is launched into the air and lands almost on top of the 2 hunters who leap from the tree. When the jeep falls forward, and down out of the tree the bottom of the tree moves and shakes in a way it shouldn't if it was truly made of wood.
21st Aug 2011
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)
12th Aug 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Fletcher deposes the boyfriend on the stand, the water stain on the left lapel of his suit grows significantly when he stands up compared to when he was sitting.
12th Aug 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
Other mistake: Tower Air never had direct flight service to Boston, only to NY from LA.
12th Aug 2011
All About Steve (2009)
Other mistake: The camera shots that Steve takes during the storm are far too steady given how much we see him moving the camera, almost as if it was on a tripod. The problem is that Steve is holding the camera and we can see how much it moves during the ground collapse footage he takes when the kids are being rescued.
12th Aug 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
Continuity mistake: At the end when Fletcher is talking to his wife, there is a reflection of an outside window in the background showing a overcast but daylight sky in the window. However, when the camera pans away from the house we see that it's instantly night.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Factual error: When Kevin and Marcus pick up the Wilson sisters, we see them driving away on a back road by the airport. The issue is that there are no roads or surrounding areas like that in or around JFK airport where they are supposed to be.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Continuity mistake: When all "4" Wilson sisters are on the runway stage, the dragon circles them and then leaves the left side of stage with Marcus and Brittany but apparently does so despite the 3' drop off. You can see that they don't step down or anything as the tail of the dragon seems to step off as if there was stairs or a platform that's simply not there.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Other mistake: When Marcus comes out for the first time on the runway with the real Wilson sister he's supposed to be, both of them are wearing the exact same outfits they had just walked the runway with.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Continuity mistake: When Denise ends her broadcast at the end of the movie, the cameraman walks toward her to take her mic. The camera then changes angles and the cameraman is now instantly gone and Kevin now appears in front of her.
26th Jul 2011
Liar Liar (1997)
Revealing mistake: At the end of the movie when Max is getting ready to blow out the candles, the shadow on the wall behind the mom comes from a light source that's equal in height to Audrey. Since the candles are the only light source in the room the angle they would cast would be more towards the ceiling.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Continuity mistake: Given how long it takes to air brush all exposed skin that's not a prosthetic (neck, hands, arms, etc.) it would not have been possible for Marcus and Kevin to apply their makeup in any amount of a reasonable time when their friends show up for the slumber party.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Other mistake: When Marcus' wife is at the restaurant, she hands her credit card to the waitress who comes back just a few seconds later to not only tell her the card was declined but to also have an agent on the phone. Given the scene is shown in realtime - there's no way all that could have been accomplished in just a few seconds.
26th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Continuity mistake: When Kevin is wrestling with the dog at Latrell's house, the dog that bites his right leg right below the calf disappears temporarily when we see Kevin on his belly from a front shot.
25th Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: After the T-Rex takes out all the sleestak, we see Holly hand her belt to Will twice - after the second time she runs through the portal. In the next scene inside the portal, she's now wearing the belt again.
25th Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: The skins that Dr. Marshall and Will find when they go to rescue Holly are out of proportion and don't even look close to how the rest of the sleestak are shaped. Even though it was a "shed skin" - it doesn't even have the same patterns on the legs and arms as the real ones.
25th Jul 2011
The Hangover (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Stu first finds Doug on the roof, the sun is half on his face. When the camera changes sides and shows Doug again when they are all standing around him, the shadow is much longer and there is no sun on his face.
25th Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Holly is translating Chaka's talk with Will around the campfire, we see the closeup shots of Holly showing her right hand holding the bottom of her notebook while she is writing in it. In the closeup shots of Chaka and Will, her hand is up underneath the book curing over the top.
25th Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Factual error: When Dr. Marshall and team launch the tank of nitrogen into the mouth of the dinosaur, there's absolutely no reason why the tank would explode as it was swallowed whole and didn't experience any sort of impact that could have punctured, ruptured or broken the valve off the tank.
25th Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Dr. Marshall is running towards the catapult with the Nitrogen tank, we see a shot from under the catapult with Rick but no dinosaur behind him. Given the relative flat layout of the land and height of the dinosaur, it's clear they forgot to add it into the scene.
22nd Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the 2 dinosaurs smell Rick by the ice cream truck, they are at most 100 feet from them. However when we see Rick catching up to Chaka, the dinosaur is now several hundred feet away, catching up.
22nd Jul 2011
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Rick goes to pour pee on himself, the face of Will's watch is more on the side of his arm. When the camera cuts back the watch is now facing up from his wrist again, only to go back again to being on the side in the subsequent shots.
22nd Jul 2011
Happy Gilmore (1996)
Continuity mistake: On the last hole, Shooter McGavin overshoots the hole and the ball ends up going past the green. However once he shoots the ball off the man's foot and onto the green, we now see him coming onto the green from the fairway side at the bottom of the screen, not from behind the green past the hole.
22nd Jul 2011
Happy Gilmore (1996)
Continuity mistake: On the last hole of the big tournament, it goes from overcast to sunny between shots depending on the camera angle of Happy or Shooter McGavin.
21st Jul 2011
Jaws (1975)
Continuity mistake: Throughout the movie we see a number of underwater scenes with the camera shot looking up under the swimmers where the water is very clear and blue given how many swimmers we can see from a distance. The only problem is that the water everyone is swimming in is greenish and cloudy as can be seen with the camera shots that are half in and out of the water right along side of the swimmers.
15th Jul 2011
Alphas (2010)
Factual error: The show is supposed to be taking place in NYC, however its clear by the shooting locations that its shot in Toronto. This can also be seen very by the various signs throughout the city that are not found in the US and are very Canadian in nature, such as the Do Not Enter and One Way.
15th Jul 2011
Alphas (2010)
Continuity mistake: When Rachel is examining the shell casing of the .30 calibre bullet, when we first pan over to her sitting in her office and on her desk is a Newtonian Collision Balls swinging back and forth. When the camera shot changes to a closer shot, its stationary and no longer moving.
15th Jul 2011
Alphas (2010)
Continuity mistake: When Gary is at the end of the table talking about Golf, he's actually seated in front of the table as seen by how he grabs his cup in front of him. In the very next shot, he's no longer sitting in front of the table and is sitting past it.
15th Jul 2011
Alphas (2010)
Factual error: When is the team watching the surveillance footage of the man being shot in the police station, the video suddenly goes out from the laptop. Gary explains later as he fixes it that it was the VGA port however when we see the back of the TV, there was no VGA cable hooked up, just some standard RCA cables.
15th Jul 2011
Alphas (2010)
Continuity mistake: When the team is on the rooftop examining the bullet path of the sniper, there is a man on an adjacent rooftop taking photos. The pictures on the camera are slightly different than the people he's shooting such as the position of the people and a brown sign seen in the first two pictures above the blue door behind them.
13th Jul 2011
Wargames: The Dead Code (2008)
Factual error: Throughout the movie, we see various shots of the Ripley computer system with some sort of fog being pumped around the circuit boards inside. Presuming that this might even be a coolant of some sort, the way in which its being directed and not dispersed would create moisture on the electronics and easily short circuit things.
13th Jul 2011
Wargames: The Dead Code (2008)
Factual error: We see Will using a gummy fruit to lift off a fingerprint from a can to then use on the fingerprint reader. This would not be possible due to the fact that the reader used relies on optics to read the ridges on a finger, something the gummy could not reproduce.
10th Jul 2011
Wargames: The Dead Code (2008)
Factual error: TSA regulations strictly prohibit passengers from leaving an airplane once they have boarded, regardless if the doors are still open, except during an emergency situation. However, Dennis was permitted to leave to look for Will.
10th Jul 2011
Addams Family Values (1993)
Continuity mistake: When Hand first starts driving the car to hit Debbie, a large metal ring that had been on the hood following the house explosion is no longer there.
10th Jul 2011
Revenge of the Nerds (1984)
Continuity mistake: When Lewis and Gilbert pass over the couple with their trunk - there are 2 people sitting up in the sun who are wearing red shirts. However, when they first arrive in their car with the trunk there were 3 sitting in that same place, now in the shade.
10th Jul 2011
Wargames: The Dead Code (2008)
Plot hole: When Will is on the airplane talking to his mom, there's a knock at her front door and she says, "There are men in suits here". However, when we see her open the front door, it's covered in thick frosted glass which would make it impossible for her to determine what the people were wearing.
10th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
Continuity mistake: When Latrell first puts the drinks on the table in front of them, they appear to be two feet apart. However, in the next shot the drinks are only a few inches apart.
9th Jul 2011
White Chicks (2004)
7th Jul 2011
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)
Deliberate mistake: When the ship crashes into the dock, all of the scenes leading up to the crash and after it show a clear view across the harbor as we can see lights and land on the other side. It's not until the ship is about to crash that a thick and dense fog appears and disappears within a minute to mask the ship to create a more dramatic effect.
5th Jul 2011
The Amityville Horror (2005)
Other mistake: The type of pan George uses to make eggs is far more modern a design than when the movie is supposed to take place in the late 70's.
1st Jul 2011
Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Revealing mistake: During the highway scene with the black GMC Decepticons chasing the Autobots, a number of civilian cars are flipped. If you look at the underside of a few of the cars, you can see the hole they use to launch a post to help flip the vehicle for the stunt. A brief puff of white smoke can also be seen on a Toyota Camry which is from the CO2 used to launch the post during the flip.
27th Jun 2011
Alien (1979)
Continuity mistake: When Dallas uses the pen to catch the acid, it melts the back of the pen to the point that it's deformed and smoking. When he hands the pen back to Brett, the back of the pen is no longer deformed at all but it's still smoking.
22nd Jun 2011
2012 (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the door opens on the ark to let the mass of people in, there is a large yellow arm that starts to close in on Jackson and his family. The tunnel that his son is pushed into last minute had a large metal door open on it that instantly disappears like it was never there when the arm passes the opening.
17th Jun 2011
Wayne's World (1992)
Continuity mistake: When Garth is holding the air ratchet gun, he's facing to the left. However every time the camera shot goes back to Wayne, Garth is in the background instantly facing the car. Then when it cuts back to Garth, he's turned 90 degrees again.
13th Jun 2011
Aliens in the Attic (2009)
Factual error: When the kids are putting firecrackers in the duct system, we see them flying around the aliens exploding. However the fireworks that were used were not the type with propellants on them and therefore would not fly around.
7th Jun 2011
Shallow Hal (2001)
Continuity mistake: After Mauricio hits his head after explaining to Hal about being beat up in gym class, some of his shake-on hair becomes dislodged, leaving five or so bald spots on the back of his head. In the very next shot from the back, the bald spots are filled in again.
7th Jun 2011
Shallow Hal (2001)
Continuity mistake: When Rosemary gets into Mauricio's VW at the end, the car drops down rather significantly (for comedic effect). However when Li'iBoy (who is heavier than Rosemary) and Ralph were in the right side of the car when it pulled up to the house, it wasn't leaning at all.
6th Jun 2011
Clash of the Titans (2010)
Continuity mistake: Towards the end when the one villager calls for Andromeda to be sacrificed, the sun is behind him shining through the scaffold they built to hold the princess. However when the camera angle changes to behind the guy - the sun is gone.

(01:22:50)

4th May 2011
Home Alone (1990)

Continuity mistake: When the security guards are seen pulling the cords out from the wall, we see four of them pulling the plugs. However when the shot changes, we see three of the carts pulling away and the fourth guard still hasn't reached his cart or plug yet. (01:12:30)
5th Apr 2011
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
Audio problem: The carts the guards are chasing Pee-Wee in are electric, which we see when they first get to them and have to unplug them. However throughout the entire chase scene we distinctly hear gas engine sounds. (01:12:30)

Annie (1982)
30th Mar 2011

20th Feb 2011
The Crazies (2010)
Continuity mistake: When the principal stabs the 3rd victim (male) on the gurney, we see that the tongs on the pitchfork extend almost their full length underneath the bed. However as we see up top, the pitchfork couldn't have been that deep given it had the height of the man's chest to go through as well.
20th Feb 2011
The Crazies (2010)
Continuity mistake: At the end when we zoom up from the Sheriff and his wife, the "spy satellite" view zooms significantly back but we don't see any of the telltale evidence of the recent massive explosion to the south of them that was seen in the distance while they were walking through the field.
20th Feb 2011
The Crazies (2010)
Revealing mistake: At the end scene when the Sheriff is escaping in the truck away from the nuclear blast, the truck begins to flip through the air. While it is flipping we see under the vehicle and can see the hole they use to launch a post to help flip the vehicle for the stunt. A brief puff of white smoke also emanates from that hole briefly during the flip.
20th Feb 2011
The Crazies (2010)
Factual error: Given the destruction from the nuclear blast threw the truck in the air, the rest of the surrounding area would also have experienced similar destruction. However when they are walking away from the truck to another town in a nearby field, there is no visible impact of what was a recent nuclear explosion anywhere to be seen.
17th Feb 2011

30th Jan 2011
Kindergarten Cop (1990)

30th Jan 2011
Kindergarten Cop (1990)
Revealing mistake: In the shot where Dominic is falling from the radio tower from afar, he supposedly gets hung up by his backpack. However the lack of tension on the straps indicate that something else kept him from falling. We see the proper tension on the backpack when the scenes change to an up close shot.
30th Jan 2011

Continuity mistake: When Cindy and Bobby are talking in the school cafeteria after he gets out from jail, the students in the background keep disappearing as they go off camera from shot to shot when they should be seen walking away behind the characters.
30th Jan 2011

Audio problem: When Mahoney and Lt Harris are driving in the car on the dirt road and Harris tells Mahoney to run behind the car, all of the conversation up until that point is done with neither character moving their mouths.
24th Jan 2011
WarGames (1983)
Plot hole: Given the number of possible combinations the launch code could be (over 3600 trillion possibilities) it makes no sense that W.O.P.R cannot process that significantly quicker given how easily it's able to calculate thousands of ICBM impacts, damage inflicted, casualties, etc. for each "War Scenario" at the end as quickly as it does to determine a winner.
24th Jan 2011
WarGames (1983)
24th Jan 2011

4th Jan 2011
Dante's Peak (1997)
Revealing mistake: When the group is first leaving shore in the boat in the acid lake with the cabin behind them on fire, the angle of the river behind them compared to the shore line doesn't match and moves independently showing how they matted the two different scenes together.
4th Jan 2011

4th Jan 2011
Kindergarten Cop (1990)
Other mistake: When Det. Kimble comes out of the school on the stretcher, we see all his class gathered by his side yet still next to the school. Standard FEMA operating procedures (and common sense) would have had the kids far away from the school and not standing near the entrance emergency workers are actively using to get the fire under control.
4th Jan 2011
Kindergarten Cop (1990)
Continuity mistake: When Det. Kimble opens the door in the school to see the two kids making out, we see the hallway behind him is clear of smoke. However, in the next shot the hallway is now full of smoke again.

All About Steve (2009)
Revealing mistake: During the distant shot when Mary, the reporter and little girl are first coming up out of the hole, the cable going back down into the hole is barely taut and moving around too freely to actually be pulling that much weight up even for a steel cable.
29th Dec 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Revealing mistake: Throughout the movie closeups of Enik's eyes reflect the lights and set around him that aren't part of the movie. During the scene when he's talking to Dr. Marshall about how the crystal controls the sleestack, you can see the white ceiling of the soundstage and lights which instead should be the sky.
14th Dec 2010
All About Steve (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the crane breaks, it only drops one end of the cable with the hook into the hole. However, later on Mary makes a contraption which the cable snapped and both ends are in the hole, going up over the pulley on the crane. The number of cables going into the hole from the crane varies for the remainder of the movie from 1 to 2 cables - and is not to be confused with the string of lights.
8th Dec 2010
X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)

28th Nov 2010
Twister (1996)

25th Nov 2010

Continuity mistake: When the team lands on the pile of bones, there is some sort of yellow stuff holding it together. The pile is also flush up against the sides of the cave.

27th Oct 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: After Holly yells at the T-Rexm after eating Dr. Marshall, the camera shot first shows the T-Rex passing her as she is now past its legs by the tail. When the camera shot changes we now see the T-Rex's legs haven't passed her yet.
21st Oct 2010

23rd Sep 2010
Entourage (2004)
Continuity mistake: When Vince is standing in front of his friends in the hospital, his right eye itself is bloodshot and there's a lot of blood on the side of his face. When he turns to face the cop who's holding the bag of coke, the contact lens to make his eye looked messed up is gone and there's hardly any blood on his face.
20th Sep 2010
Dragonheart (1996)
Factual error: When Draco is first "shot" to hustle money from the villagers, we see an overhead shot of him swimming underwater. However given the amount of water he's deplacing while swimming, we do not see any swell or disturbance due to water refraction of him beneath the surface that would clearly have been visible.
17th Sep 2010
The Great Outdoors (1988)
Revealing mistake: When the bear gets shot in the hind quarters, you can see that the "bare skin" is nothing more than an overlaid prop based on how it shakes and moves independent of the bear as the bear runs away.
6th Sep 2010
Scream (1996)
Factual error: At the end when they are loading Dewey into the ambulance on the stretcher, it is standard procedure to put the patient neck brace when they receive any type of unknown injuries (stab wounds) to their back as Dewey did - it was notably absent.
6th Sep 2010
Scream (1996)
Plot hole: Given the magnitude of the crimes that occur at the house at the end, the police can be seen in the last shot dusting Dewey's truck. If the police are so careful as to dust for prints when the entire rest of the crime scene is heavily contaminated by everyone from the EMTs, Gale doing her news, police, etc. makes what they are doing seem silly. (01:43:25)
6th Sep 2010
Deuce Bigalow (1999)
Revealing mistake: When Kate is using the chisel on Deuce's head, you can see it's made of rubber as it bends as she is hammering it and stops when he turns around.
2nd Sep 2010
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
Plot hole: The super warriors that are given the venom are supposed to be fearless and without self preservation. However, during the scene in the Sahara base when they are helping to get the warheads back from the Joes, one of those men screams out in fear as he falls down the shaft, which makes no sense as the one guy did not scream in frustration when he was bitten earlier by the deadly snake and knew he would die. (00:40:20)
2nd Sep 2010
The Hangover (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the guys are going to bring "Carlos" to his mom in his apartment, he is wide awake as they approach the room. However when Jade picks him up, he's now suddenly sleeping.

1st Sep 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the mosquito is sucking on Dr. Marshall's neck, it keeps changing positions from higher up on his shoulder to more towards the front between shots. This is clear by watching the legs of the bug going from in front of his shoulder to being over the strap even when his head isn't moving.
30th Aug 2010
Blankman (1994)
Revealing mistake: When Blankman is using his homemade grappling hook, you can see that the string is attached to the top of the invention and turning the handle isn't doing anything as he's simply being lowered.
29th Aug 2010
The Hangover (2009)
Continuity mistake: The amount of dirt on Phil's pants varies greatly between shots, during the scene after they let the guy out of the trunk in the Mercedes.

Continuity mistake: When Jennifer is in behind the mirrors, we see that she was by the 3rd mirror from the end when the killer stabs her. However Dewey had already shot that glass out and only 2 were remaining out of the 6. (01:24:50)
29th Aug 2010
Brothers (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the butterfly clips are put onto Tommy's head after the fight, the amount of blood on them through the following scenes that night and the next day varies from bloody, to clean, to bloody again, over and over again.
29th Aug 2010
Scream 3 (2000)
Continuity mistake: The knife that was thrown at Dewey left the killers hand with blood all over the blade, but was perfectly clean when the butt of it hit his head to knock him out at the top of the stairs. (01:26:55)
Suggested correction: Watch in slo-motion the sequence when he gets hit and you'll see the blade is bloody even during that. He then pulls out of his sleeve (literally!) a clean knife, but it's not supposed to be the original one, since he never retrieved it.
29th Aug 2010
The Hangover (2009)
Continuity mistake: A different "Carlos" baby can be seen during the apartment scene, in which the baby the guys bring to the apartment is different than the baby used during the breastfeeding shot. The two babies have different face and eye shapes.
29th Aug 2010
Anaconda (1997)
Other mistake: After they blow up the dam blocking their passage, there is a far away shot as they are going up river and there's a grassy landmass that goes across the river blocking their route up river.
24th Aug 2010
Storm of the Century (1999)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when they are trying to bring Mr. Leniog into the rear of the door we hear them trying to open the door from the inside, shaking it rather violently. From the outside shots we hear the door rattling but it's not moving at all like it is from the inside shots.
12th Aug 2010
Shallow Hal (2001)
Audio problem: When Hal is talking to Katrina, after he's been de-hypnotized, in the over-the-shoulder shot of him facing her, we hear him talking but his mouth doesn't start moving until he turns to look away from her.
2nd Aug 2010
You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)
Continuity mistake: When they throw the Neosporin on the window it lands approximately two feet in from the right edge in the shots taken directly from in front of the store. In the in between shot that's taken from an angle, the blob is now right next to the frame of the window above the "Closed" sign instead.
2nd Aug 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Other mistake: Due to the gait of the T-Rex, its head moves rather significantly when it walks as seen throughout the movie. However when it approaches Dr. Marshall with the laser in its teeth, the laser is steady and able to pinpoint a line up his head in a very steady manner which would not have been possible.
2nd Aug 2010
Village of the Damned (1995)
Continuity mistake: When Barbara is standing on the cliff, we see that is is cloudy and foggy all around her. When she looks down to jump, it is sunny along the bottom of the cliff. However after she looks up, it's cloudy and foggy again for the rest of the scene.
2nd Aug 2010
Zombieland (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Tallahassee first enters the fried Twinkie shop storeroom, there are Twinkies hanging out from the box. However when he goes to grab one he has to reach inside and there's not any outside the box anymore.
1st Aug 2010
17 Again (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Ned calls off the Hummer it is immediately in the street behind the Principal, but was completely absent in every shot before that as you can see the street behind her it wasn't there.
1st Aug 2010
Zombieland (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Bill Murray first does his signature hand pray/bow maneuver for the praises from Tallahassee, Bill's hands go instantly from up in front of him to his pockets between camera angles.
1st Aug 2010
Zombieland (2009)
Continuity mistake: The yellow Hummer goes from being initially dirty on the doors, to shiny clean when they get out to investigate the girls' Cadillac when it breaks down.
1st Aug 2010
Zombieland (2009)
Visible crew/equipment: As Tallahassee is driving them to Bill Murray's house in the Hummer, you can see the camera crew riding alongside in the reflection on the truck.
1st Aug 2010
Village of the Damned (1995)
Revealing mistake: When the eye doctor becomes hypnotized to put the wrong drops in her own eyes, if you watch the bottle nothing ever comes out of it that could cause her to scream.
25th Jul 2010
Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003)
Revealing mistake: When the pickup truck stops short and the Creeper goes through the cab, the truck flips over frontwards. If you look near the rear axle when it flips over you can see the puff of white smoke and the cylinder that helped to flip the truck.
25th Jul 2010
Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003)
Continuity mistake: When Bucky jumps on the hood of the bus to get back in, the Creeper flies from in front of the moon towards the bus causing all the kids to run away. Bucky can still be seen staying put on the hood when they run - however in the next shot of all the kids running you see him at the front of the pack which would have not been possible given that he didn't run right away.
25th Jul 2010
Children of the Corn (1984)
Continuity mistake: When Burt and Vicky are first heading toward Gatlin after hitting the kid, the sun varies between camera shots dramatically.
24th Jul 2010
The Money Pit (1986)
Continuity mistake: When Walter is hanging from the staircase after its collapse, Anna is about a foot back from the edge of the steps when she first approaches. However in the closeup shot we see that she's now on the edge and on Walter's fingers.
19th Jul 2010
Poltergeist (1982)
Revealing mistake: When Diane is pulled back from the front door near the end of the movie, they use a stunt double, as you can see the stunt person scramble off to the right after the real Diane lands behind the stairs.
Suggested correction: You're close. They did use a stunt double but you don't see the double "scrambling off." The stunt double is barefoot and the person you see clearing the shot is wearing shoes. Most likely a stage hand helping the stunt double with the landing.
19th Jul 2010
Poltergeist (1982)
Continuity mistake: The reddish brown goo on Robbie's face after he's almost eaten by the tree varies between camera shots.
19th Jul 2010
Poltergeist (1982)
Visible crew/equipment: When Diane and Steve go to their neighbor's house after the scene of the chair sliding across the floor, there's a flash of lightning that reveals a shadow of a fan that's blowing on the actors on the left side of the house.
19th Jul 2010
Poltergeist (1982)
Continuity mistake: When Carol Anne goes to the TV in the parents' bedroom the first time, the clock on the TV changes from 2:38, 2:58, 2:38 and then back to 2:53 with each camera angle change.
22nd Jun 2010
Tommy Boy (1995)
Continuity mistake: When Tommy and Richard pick up the hitchhiker, the close ups show the windshield with many more small spider cracks in it than later scenes with the car where you only see a few large cracks instead.
17th Jun 2010
Dude, Where's My Car? (2000)
Factual error: The average speed of an African Ostrich is 31mph, not 27mph as noted in the film.
14th Jun 2010
The Hangover (2009)
Continuity mistake: When the guys are sitting down for breakfast, it is clear that in some of the far away shots during that scene "Carlos" is not the same baby as the shape of the baby's eyes are different.
14th Jun 2010
Police Academy (1984)
Continuity mistake: In the beginning when the Kodak photo booth is thrown from the bridge, its moving away from the bridge - not under it. The next shot the booth changed directions as it goes under and comes out the other side of the bridge.
13th Jun 2010
Yes Man (2008)
Revealing mistake: When Carl and Allison are hugging in the barn scene, you can see how the rain making equipment is forming a rain ring on the ground outside the barn door.
4th Jun 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Holly removes Chaka's hand from her chest after learning his name, up close it's his left hand and in the next shot she's removing his right hand.
4th Jun 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: The sun keeps moving from the left side to the right side of the catapult as Will and Holly are preparing it for Dr. Marshall.
4th Jun 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Rick first meets Enik, the Sleestack are shown peering in through the portal. However throughout that entire scene, we see various other angles and the portal is nowhere to be seen.
4th Jun 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Grumpy jumps the chasm to chase Dr. Marshall, there's a large green bulbous plant that moves from the side Grumpy jumped from to the one he lands on. It wasn't there before.
2nd Jun 2010
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Alice and Sam are driving away from the party in Bumblebee after she gets squirted with "fluid", we see that they are driving down a city block. Each subsequent shot out the side windows from inside the car show distant blurry lights - not buildings we should be seeing.
29th May 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Visible crew/equipment: At the end scene, you can see a few crew members standing in the reflection of Enick's eyes and its not any of the actors as he is facing the wrong direction for it to be them.
24th May 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: After Holly takes the photo of Will with the T-Rex approaching behind him, in the next shot the dinosaur is a lot further behind as you see them running away from it.
24th May 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Rick pushes down his socks to the top of his boots to cross the lava, they are back up to his knees in the next shot.
24th May 2010
Land of the Lost (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Rick is lying in the back seat of the convertible in the desert, the speaker hanging next to him goes from being flush against the door when viewed from the front shot, to being crooked when viewed from behind.
14th Dec 2009
The Unborn (2009)
Revealing mistake: During the ophthalmologist scene, when they zoom into the view of Casey's eye you can see the ring of the contact lens used to create the pigment change special effect.
1st Nov 2009
The Mentalist (2008)
Deliberate mistake: When the investigators are in the basement wine cellar, they turn on their flashlights to illuminate the pitch black area as they walk around. However there is a light source moving with the camera shining on them as they are casting a shadow behind them.
1st Nov 2009
The Happening (2008)
Continuity mistake: When the Jeep stops in Priceton, we can see its on a single land road. However once it starts to accelerate in the next shot to ram the tree at the intersection, it is now a forked road.
Suggested correction: The road is a standard two way road that is unpainted with road markings. Almost all non major roadways are unpainted and many of them fork into two separate roads.
31st Oct 2009
Imagine That (2009)
Character mistake: At the end of the movie when the play is just starting, one of the parents in the front of the audience is holding up a Motorola Razr phone to take pictures but is facing it the wrong way.
19th Oct 2009
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000)
Other mistake: Season 10, episode 4 "Coup de Grace": When Nick is doing the phenolphthalein test on the q-tip, it turns pink immediately and starts to overflow pink coloring all the way down the side of the stick, which is not how that test works. Normally it takes a few seconds and only turns color around where the blood is.
19th Oct 2009
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000)
Continuity mistake: Season 10, episode 3 "Working Stiffs": The picture of the employees holding a sign at work with the X's through them at Paulie's house changes between two completely different photos when far away vs. up close.
5th Sep 2009
I Am Legend (2007)
Other mistake: In the scene when Robert gets caught up in the trap by Grand Central Terminal, there are no traffic lights on the upper street that they show him being suspended from.
5th Sep 2009
Hung (2009)
'This Is America' or 'Fifty Bucks' - S1-E9
Continuity mistake: When Ronnie is handing his wife Jessica the credit card to go shopping, it's a Gold Amex card as the blue logo is visible on the back. When the shot changes to Jessica taking the card, it's now silver in color and not an Amex card.
3rd Sep 2009
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)
Visible crew/equipment: When the Department of Homeland Security vehicle is pulling up outside the airplane hanger, to detain Harold & Kumar from the airplane, you can see the crew and lighting equipment reflected in the door as it opens.
3rd Sep 2009
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)
Visible crew/equipment: When Kumar hops into the yellow Mustang the first time, you can see the crew and camera reflected in the door.
31st Aug 2009
I Am Legend (2007)
Audio problem: Aside from the beginning of the movie, the generators Robert has going put out a lot of noise that we do not hear during any of the other home scenes. This would make sense for the night shots as they would be off as to not attract anyone, but nothing is heard during any other daytime scene.
28th Aug 2009
The Happening (2008)
Factual error: There are no tracks, stations or train routes in Filbert, PA.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Other mistake: During the opening scene, basic explosive physics dictates that the car should have moved away from the meteor crash, not up and over it.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Continuity mistake: When the heroes of our film are first running away from the growing napalm induced blob to their firetruck, there are a number of shots which show nothing over their shoulders where the alien lifeforms should be undulating as its emerging from the ground.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Wayne goes to shoot the fuzzy no-nose chimp, the glass panel behind the chimp goes from being intact to cracked and back to being intact after it's dead.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Continuity mistake: When Ira sits down in the diner scene, the utensils in front of him are lined up knife then spoon. However at the end of the scene when they go to leave, they are reversed.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Other mistake: The puffy small burst explosions that occur within the cave do not exhibit how napalm would detonate, especially with the amount used, method they are detonating it and sheer scale of what they were looking to accomplish by destroying the alien habitat.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Deliberate mistake: The energy the meteor would displace upon impact would have created a crater of significant size compared to what was portrayed. It also didn't appear to have any impact to the structure of the cavern it crashed into either.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Plot hole: Because humans have a layer of subcutaneous fat under the skin, the bug that travels under Harry's skin would have caused not only significant damage but an amazing amount of pain while moving around. There would have also been severe internal damage caused by the bug if it traveled into his colon where they ended up removing it from.
25th Aug 2009
Evolution (2001)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when the "blob" has an arm that crashes down on top of a house, we see in the very next aerial shot that it is isolated in the desert away from any homes.
21st Aug 2009
Meet the Spartans (2008)
Continuity mistake: During the 'Stomp the Yard' scene between the Persians and Spartans, the head Persian has a scarf around his face when he dances (because it isn't him) but it's nowhere to be seen during closeup shots.
19th Aug 2009
The Brady Bunch Movie (1995)
Deliberate mistake: In the Search for the Stars contest, at the end of the song their mouths have stopped singing as they go to bow but you continue to keep hearing them apparently sing a few seconds longer as it fades out. This is a joke referring to the original Brady Bunch episode where the kids sing the song on live television and the song similarly fades out after they've stopped singing.
19th Aug 2009
The Brady Bunch Movie (1995)
Continuity mistake: When the family comes back home after Jan ran away, she has 2 rollers on the sides of her head. Throughout the scene, the height of the one on the right varies from high up near her hairline to midway down just above her eyebrow.
19th Aug 2009
The Brady Bunch Movie (1995)
Continuity mistake: During the scene in which Marsha is going on a date after her football injury, the amount her nose is swollen and bruising varies between noticeable to almost non-existent throughout all the scenes that occur the night of the dance. (00:44:15 - 00:45:15)
19th Aug 2009
The Brady Bunch Movie (1995)
Revealing mistake: During the scene where Mr. Dittmeyer is standing in front of the 9 TVs, you can see that the middle 3 people (Mike, Carol and Alice) are all taken from the same camera/angle as they all have the same background. As such that would then mean they were recordings being played back vs. being live shots as beginning of the musical number portrays.
19th Aug 2009
The Brady Bunch Movie (1995)
Revealing mistake: When the family heads to Sears and are first playing with the cameras, Jan's show that her movements in her camera are slightly different and not the lag factor of the image being displayed on the TV.
19th Aug 2009
The Incredible Hulk (2008)
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Bruce is in the helicopter hearing about the other "hulk", the camera is the only thing being moved around to simulate a shaky helicopter ride. The equipment nor any of the actors inside the copter are moving around or stabilizing themselves according to how bumpy the camera movements are making it out to be.
19th Aug 2009
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
Revealing mistake: The clarity of the water in the Arctic scenes would not allow anyone to see the underground base from as far away as it was seen throughout various points in the movie. (01:14:45)
19th Aug 2009
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
Revealing mistake: During the four-year flashback scene in East Africa, after the building is bombed, two helicopters fly to the right of the building. However, because they are CGI, the telltale whirl (or any movement) the blades should have made in the smoke isn't there. (00:50:10)
19th Aug 2009
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
Factual error: During the rooftop scene overlooking the Lincoln Memorial and National Mall, aside from no building being built there to see such a perspective, it would have to be built in the Potomac river to get such a view.
23rd Jul 2009
The Happening (2008)
Continuity mistake: When the train first leaves Philly heading to Harrisburg, there are 4 cars pulling out and 5 on the overhead shot. Also when pulling out of Philly it is a diesel engine and the overhead is electric.
23rd Jul 2009
The Happening (2008)
Factual error: The cars the train is pulling for the Philadelphia to Harrisburg route are not ones that represent any passenger cars used for the Amtrak or Keystone routes. They are SEPTA cars on an undisclosed route, other than the Harrisburg line.
23rd Jul 2009
The Happening (2008)
Other mistake: When the Jeep crashes and John gets out, he sits on the ground behind the vehicle and picks up a shard of glass that's supposed to be from the vehicle accident. Given that all the glass on the jeep shows to be intact, the glass couldn't have come from the Jeep as insinuated by the audio and placement of the shard.
Suggested correction: The windshield broke when the Jeep crashed into the tree and the driver was thrown through it. So the glass of the Jeep is not all intact. That being said, the shard John picked up was a long way away from where the windshield broke.
23rd Jul 2009
The Happening (2008)
Revealing mistake: When they are sitting down for dinner at the old lady's home, it is clear that a very white light source is in the room brightening things up - something that non-electric oil/kerosene light sources cannot do.
25th Jun 2009
Stand By Me (1986)
Revealing mistake: During the pie eating scene when the projectile stream of blueberries starts, the alignment is off for most of them, as it appears to come out of their noses and chins as well. The pie eating contestant next to the radio personality has their stream fall in an arc until it looks like it's coming from beneath their chin directly downward.
23rd Jun 2009
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when Harold and Kumar watch the hunter shoot the deer in front of them, the blood on Harold's face changes from shot to shot.
16th Jun 2009
Employee of the Month (2006)
Continuity mistake: During the baseball game, the shot right before Zack finally leaves the store to come play shows the scoreboard at a 0-0 game in the first inning. The scoreboard shot before that one just showed the score as being 2-8.
11th May 2009
Shoot to Kill (1988)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when Tom Berenger is crossing the cable car by hand, the amount of rope coils left in Sidney Poitier's hand varies from shot to shot.
22nd Apr 2009
Event Horizon (1997)
Plot hole: The use of massive explosives to separate a ship makes no sense as the explosion would send fragments at high velocity in every direction guaranteeing it would penetrate whatever ship is remaining. As we see in the final scene when the ship does blow apart, it is not a precise controlled detonation to sever connections but a total (and glamorous) explosion which makes no sense whatsoever.
Suggested correction: The explosions breach the outer hull, pulling the debris outward with the explosive decompression, the film shows the ring shaped explosions at both ends of the corridor. The debris wouldn't hit the lifeboat because it is heading in a different direction.
22nd Apr 2009
Medium (2005)
Continuity mistake: When Allison wakes up from her dream about the murderer, she runs into the kitchen to write down the car's license place on a notepad: 2TH DOC1. However when she holds it up to show Joe, it's smaller written and not across the notepad as she had originally written it.
22nd Apr 2009
Event Horizon (1997)
Revealing mistake: During the opening scene, when the camera is starting to zoom in on the ship outside earth's atmosphere - the view of the crew inside zooms in quicker than the camera moving in to zoom into the cockpit.
22nd Apr 2009
You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)
Revealing mistake: When Zohan brings out the pot of Hummus to put out the fire, a black hose can be seen in the background running into the pot from the right side of the screen that wasn't attached to it when it was brought out.
22nd Apr 2009
Mr. Brooks (2007)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when Tracy Atwood is catapulted from the van, it was because the rear part of the van slid into another vehicle. As the van drove away there was no visible damage to the passenger side of the vehicle.
13th Apr 2009
The Cell (2000)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Carl is in the bathtub before being caught, there is a red razor and bar of soap on the edge of the tub next to his right shoulder. In the next camera shot when he goes to get out of the tub, the razor is already on the floor before he even hits into it.
13th Apr 2009
Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)
Other mistake: In the end fight scene between Dr. Isaacs and Alice, she bumps into the water cocoon and awakes one of her clones only to have it die a few seconds later. When she goes to cover up the body, the clone can be seen wearing a wedding ring - they don't incubate the bodies wearing jewelry in an embryonic state.
13th Apr 2009
Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)
Continuity mistake: When the tanker explodes that Carlos jackknifes at the end scene, the zombies that surrounded the tanker simply fall over from the explosion. However when Alice drives the H2 up to and through the wreckage the ground is clear of any fallen bodies. (01:10:50)
8th Apr 2009
Speed Racer (2008)
Revealing mistake: Throughout the racing shots of the movie, the close up shots of the fans in the stands show the same people used multiple times as evident by them wearing the same clothes, poses, etc.
