Stuck in the Suburbs picture

Other mistake: When Jordan Cahill sings on the porch of the old house, he is holding the guitar but he is not actually playing it (he's not really fingering on the fingerboard).

The Living Daylights picture

Other mistake: When James is on the top of the jeep, there is a brief shot of it from behind as they go past an armed soldier. Watch carefully, the jeep goes over a few bumps and Bond on top seems to jump all over the place in a very unnatural way. This is because the footage has been sped up to make the Jeep appear to be going faster.

Center Stage picture

Other mistake: After Jody, Charlie, and Cooper take their last curtain call, the shot goes backstage. Sergei yells at Eva, "You! I'm gonna kill you!" presumably because she surprised him by taking Maureen's place. Eva responds, "I'm so sorry. I wanted to tell you." And they argue playfully and then hug. But it's been a long time [the entire length of Cooper's ballet] since their ballet finished. And we saw the backstage scenes immediately after Cooper's ballet and after the Italian Symphony ballet, and everyone had a chance to talk right then. And Eva and Sergei finished their ballet in each other's arms. So they should have had that whole conversation a long time earlier. Even if real ballet dancers wouldn't be permitted to talk after a performance, the dancers in this movie are shown speaking freely to one another backstage as soon as the curtain falls. (01:44:05)

The Doors picture

Other mistake: Early in the film, before they were signed to a record deal the Doors were playing small clubs around L.A. in 1966. After one of these gigs, a promoter comes up and asks Jim Morrison how old he is, in which he replies "21." Morrison was born in 1943, so the youngest he could have been is 22, not 21.

O Brother, Where Art Thou? picture

Other mistake: The radio station had no power or telephone lines anywhere in the vicinity, and the lines would not have been buried in 1937. A telephone is seen on the wall inside the building, yet it couldn't have been connected to anything. There wasn't a generator to power the radio transmitter, because it would have had an exhaust pipe through the roof, nor was there any adjacent building to house a generator.

El Cantante picture

Other mistake: In the scene when Hector Lavoe and his wife (Mark Anthony and JLo) are walking down the street in New York, on the right hand of the screen you will see a man taking a picture with his cell phone. The scene is supposed to be based in the 70's.

La Pianiste picture

Other mistake: When Erika peeps at a couple at the drive-in cinema, the man makes eye contact, jumps out of the car, and starts running after her. We see her running away, but the guy never catches her, although she isn't running very fast and didn't have much of a head start. (00:50:40)

Step Up 3D picture

Other mistake: In the vault when everyone is discussing Moose's win over kid darkness, the camera focuses on their phone (the blackberry) and we get to see the ending of the battle. But what we see on the phone is totally different from what actually happens. (00:06:30 - 00:12:10)

Detroit Rock City picture

Other mistake: Lex is in the backstage area and is being chased by a guard. He is walking around carrying a piece of drum equipment and he trips over a cord and drops it. But when the camera shot changes back to him the cord is nowhere to be seen, therefore he really tripped over thin air.

Rock 'n' Roll High School picture

Other mistake: Before the hall monitor folds the note into a paper airplane, the note has creases as is it was already folded into a paper airplane, and then flattened out for a different take.

Walk the Line picture

Other mistake: In the scene where Johnny Cash is seen beating his first wife, there are at least two shots from behind where the "tag" on Johnny's t-shirt can be seen. However, this visible tag is one of the new Hanes tag-less tees, which clearly was not available at that time.
