Revealing mistake: Ron leans against a barrel and sets in motion a series of events leading to an explosion. For being able to tip it with such a modest push, it is obvious it was empty (confirmed also by how it bounces). (00:02:20)

23rd Oct 2019
Batman (1966)
Smack in the Middle (2) - S1-E2
Revealing mistake: When Batman bursts out from the mammoth, one of the 'unconscious' extras changes position reacting to the practical effect. (00:20:45)
22nd Oct 2019
High-Rise (2015)
Revealing mistake: In the shot where Laing hears the horse neigh, at the top right corner of the screen that there are trees on the other side of the wall, where only the blue sky was before. (00:19:15)
22nd Oct 2019
Collision Course (1989)
Revealing mistake: A brawl in the bowling alley erupts, started by Tex Cobb tossing on the ground a bad Jay Leno stunt double (hair color does not even match). (00:58:40)
16th Oct 2019
Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
Revealing mistake: When Japp points at the news on the paper about the mine stocks going up, in the close-up you can see easily that only the title and the enlarged text of the first 3 lines talk about the mine. The rest is sports talk. (00:33:55)
12th Oct 2019
Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
The Million Dollar Bond Robbery - S3-E3
Revealing mistake: All the Liberty Bonds loaded in the bag of Mr. Ridgeway have the exact same serial number. (00:20:00)
10th Oct 2019
Adventures of Aladdin (2019)
Revealing mistake: Aladdin uses the rope horizontally to move past the fire on the floor. Obvious CGI flames get to his clothes and to him, but he does not break a sweat or feel any pain. (00:17:55)
10th Oct 2019
Baby's Day Out (1994)
Revealing mistake: Brian Haley's stuntman launches himself out of the building by his own will in the sequence when the cart reaches the edge (he lets go off the cart handle before the impact and jumps right into 'the void'). (01:17:10)
10th Oct 2019
Adventures of Aladdin (2019)
Revealing mistake: In the scene with Dariush sucked away by the dust devil, he is supposedly struggling with the pull of the whirlwind as he clings to a plant, but you can see his arms bent and the bushes undisturbed. (00:53:20)
10th Oct 2019
Adventures of Aladdin (2019)
Revealing mistake: "Prince Ali" descends on a magic carpet surrounded by fireworks...in a hall that is roughly 20 feet high. The scene is played 'straight' and not as parody. (00:39:10)
10th Oct 2019
Adventures of Aladdin (2019)
Revealing mistake: When Aladdin's friend pops out of a window, the CGI effect used given the lack of a real palace set built is of questionable quality. (00:42:20)
10th Oct 2019
Adventures of Aladdin (2019)
Revealing mistake: In the middle of the desert banquet scene, sand is lifted off the ground a second before the genie belches. (00:29:40)
10th Oct 2019
Baby's Day Out (1994)
Revealing mistake: In pursuit of the bus, Eddie is turning the van to the left from the main street into an alley. Two different takes have been edited together, as the position of the cars behind and in front of the van changes (not dramatically though, the coordination in the scene has actually been better than much easier scenes). Also you can see on the asphalt obvious skidmarks from previous takes. (00:30:45)
10th Oct 2019
Kiss the Girls (1997)
Revealing mistake: In the locker of the Gentleman Caller there are multiple newspaper clippings. When Cross looks at the one talking about his niece, it just does not talk about his niece. The clipping is on camera long enough to be able to read without freeze frame, and it's talking about things like police brutality and apartheid (actual word used), entirely unrelated to the fake headline and picture caption. (01:18:00)
10th Oct 2019
Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9
Revealing mistake: Japp is waiting for Van Braks to make his move, and when he is hopping on a taxi for the airport, he begins to tail him. When the car moves, reflected in the door is a modern No Parking cone in bright yellow (incidentally, they also pass by a parked car with a FUU 692 plate that is a bit too recent for the series, being an Austin Big 7, first produced in 1937). (00:41:05)

Kyô kara Ore wa!! (2018)
Revealing mistake: When Mitsuhashi and Ito meet on the first day of school, the clock in the classroom never advances from the 8:20 position despite the scene taking place in a span longer than one minute. (00:04:45 - 00:06:08)
9th Oct 2019
Shaft in Africa (1973)
Revealing mistake: When Shaft props the dead guy on the bus against the seat, the blood he drooled on his arm is gone, and as he tries to shut the dead guy's eyelids the not-so-dead actor closes his eyes a second before Richard Roundtree's fingers get to his eyeballs. (00:39:05)
9th Oct 2019
Shaft in Africa (1973)
Revealing mistake: Shaft kills two guys who are climbing the stairs out of the catacombs Amafi is holed in. No bullet holes or blood appear on the clothes, and they both use the railings to help their backward tumble down the stairs in a rather noticeable fashion. (01:46:00)
9th Oct 2019
Shaft in Africa (1973)
Revealing mistake: In Maiberra, with the big trucks of the villains loudly traversing at top speed the roads, all the women by the road are facing the opposite direction instead, smiling, and some of them looking into the camera. (00:51:10)
9th Oct 2019
Baby's Day Out (1994)
Revealing mistake: When the three criminals jump from one roof to the other to chase the baby, Norby rolls during the landing and ends up against a metal chimney, which gets pushed aside, offering no resistance whatsoever. (00:26:55)
