Suggested correction: I could not see Will's speedometer or tachometer (RPM gauge) during his drive to Frank's. What I did see (and believe you saw) was the patrol officer's instrument panel while he was parked along the road using radar. This was before he pulled out to chase Will's speeding SUV, so both gauges should have been on the far left (i.e, on "0"). [00:46:28].

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 picture

Revealing mistake: When Sonic and Tails arrive in Green Hills on the biplane, Tom and Maddie are looking up at them, but not focused on the same point. Instead, Maddie is looking to the left, and Tom to the right.

Scream picture

Revealing mistake: When Ritchie tackles Sam down the stairs, you can get a pretty clear look at both the stunt-man and stunt-woman's faces as they fall. They then switch back to the actual actors once they reach the bottom of the stairs.

Jurassic World Dominion picture

Revealing mistake: While in the helicopter, Alan's eyes do not align with the location of the Dreadnoughtus. Alan is looking to his far right before the helicopter even approaches the dinosaur and it is shown across the front of the screen. Alan's eyes then stay fixed straight ahead (even after passing the dinosaur), giving the impression he's looking at the dinosaur, but he would have needed to keep turning his neck to the right as the helicopter flew past in order to keep it in sight. (00:35:14)

Suggested correction: It's a common movie trope. The two things aren't happening in sequential order. They're happening at the same time. Alan isn't looking before the helicopter approaches the dinosaur...you're seeing the inside of the helicopter as it approaches and passes the dinosaur. They're happening at the same time.

Legacy Peak picture

Revealing mistake: In the underwater view of the fish, the ice hole is almost perfectly round and the ice appears to be quite thin - nowhere near the several inches Jason and Ben have to chip away to reach water. (00:33:55)

Revealing mistake: Corporal Shah is tied and on a chair in the command center. He then receives a powerful blow to his left check, knocking him sideways and rendering him unconscious. But his glasses do not even move a millimeter.

All Quiet on the Western Front picture

Revealing mistake: The French tanks that attack Paul et al. Towards the end of the second act are supposed to be Saint Chamond tanks. There is only one of those left in the world, and it is not on screen: the undercarriage and tracks don't even come close to looking like that of a Saint Chamond, because it's actually a BMP-1 dressed up to look like a Saint Chamond.

The Winter Palace picture

Revealing mistake: The chalet was visible behind Emily when she was outside talking on the phone, but subsequent views of Emily showed her in front of a solid white background (mimicking snow) - indicating the use of a green (white?) screen. (00:13:34 - 00:13:56)

Escape the Field picture

Revealing mistake: The size of the spider walking off Sam's face becomes disproportionately smaller too fast compared to its size while on her cheek plus the spider's awkward movements are indicative of CGI. (00:02:20)

American Carnage picture

Revealing mistake: The owl that JP saw was obviously "fake" (stuffed or CGI). Its nose was crooked and its puffy cheeks made it look like it had cheek filler injections; owls have flat faces. (00:32:50)

Mindcage picture

Revealing mistake: The cell bars appear to be about 4" apart, but are much wider to accommodate the width of The Artist's face/head when there's a close-up of him next to the bars. (01:13:50 - 01:15:09)

Gigi & Nate picture

Revealing mistake: Driving home from meeting Gigi, there is an image on the windshield of a blue handicapped parking permit/placard that is supposed to be hung on the rearview mirror, but there is no placard hanging - the permit's image is superimposed on the windshield. The image even briefly appears and reappears. (00:34:05)

Orphan: First Kill picture

Revealing mistake: The front and rear views of the house did not seem to properly fit together. The rear view showed more sections, making the house longer than what the front indicated and had three high chimneys compared to only one from the front. The rear view also showed several trees that would be aligned in front of the house, but the trees did not appear to be situated that way. (00:27:49 - 00:29:52)

My Policeman picture

Revealing mistake: Younger Tom dropped his policeman's jacket onto the "fire" and when Younger Marion came over to the fire (almost 30 seconds later), the jacket still had not caught on fire. The next time the jacket was shown, most of it still looked unscathed by the fire. (01:33:30 - 01:35:36)

Revealing mistake: Becky calls Dan on her iPhone, as she puts it to her ear you can still see the contact info while Dan's voicemail is playing and not the actual call duration screen. (00:05:21)

Love at the Christmas Contest picture

Revealing mistake: The stairs are a prop. About a dozen steep steps - just to the landing - are almost as high as the front door. (00:55:48)

Pursuit picture

Revealing mistake: When William and Jack open the door, enter the room, and walk past the helium-filled balloons (tied to a chair about 4' away), the balloons remain immobile. Due to how light helium balloons are, just opening the door or breathing nearby would be enough to cause the balloons to move somewhat - if they were actually there. (00:16:00)
