Ace Ventura: Pet Detective picture

Audio problem: At the beginning, when they steal the dolphin, you hear the peel-out sound effect as if the truck was on a paved road, but they were on grass. (00:07:15)

Speed picture

Audio problem: When Jack tells the bad guy he wants to get off the bus, he says "it's not against the rules." The bad guy then says "All right, but I want you back real fast." Look at his mouth while he says the line. You can see that the talking isn't similar to the moving mouth. This is because Dennis Hopper originally said "in ten minutes" instead of "real fast." Since Jack was gone longer than 10 minutes, the line was re-dubbed to something less specific. (01:10:37)

Audio problem: Right after Jackson has been dragged through the desert by the creature, it wakes him up and he says, "Get away from me," but his mouth never moves. (00:40:30)

True Lies picture

Audio problem: In the public restroom fight, Arnold slams one of the bad guys head into the ceramic urinal. Although you hear two loud and clear "klonks", the urinal bends when Arnold presses the bad guy's head down. [Only visible in the pan and scan version.] (00:31:55)

Star Trek: Generations picture

Audio problem: Counsellor Troi visits Picard in his quarters after he finds out that his brother dies. Listen to Picard say "Counsellor - er". There is an audio editing mistake of some sort where you could clearly hear that his voice was dubbed over the original, the original being off by a fraction of a second. The "er" sound from "Counsellor" is repeated. (00:38:20)

The Crow picture

Audio problem: There is a scene where Eric is following the crow through a dark room. The camera trails off to show the crow's shadow and there is a sound as of wings fluttering yet the shadow is perfectly still. (00:10:10)

The Mask picture

Audio problem: When Tina is tied to the palm tree with the bomb armed and Ipkiss is fighting with the goons. Ipkiss fights with Dorian and punches him over and over with Dorain on his back. The punching sounds are VERY obviously off from the action.

Audio problem: When Shame points both his guns to the 2 guys in the beginning of the movie, you hear both guns click, but you can see that they are already cocked.

No Escape picture

Audio problem: When the good guys finally get the Chevy V8 running, the sound it makes sounds more like a moped than a high-performance engine. It has headers and no mufflers, so it should have been quite loud.

Audio problem: Although the cast speaks English throughout (with wildly varying accents), when Sandrine Holt is being lowered into the cave, one of the Chilean extras can be heard saying, "Cuidado." (Be careful.) in Spanish.

Beverly Hills Cop III picture

Audio problem: When Hector Elizondo comes to the park near the end and shoots the guy in the lift, there are a lot of rides operating around him. We don't hear the rides making any noise. Anyone who has been to an amusement park knows how loud rides are.

Street Fighter picture

Audio problem: When Chun-Li's group is pretending to be the magicians, she ends the act by jumping into the outstretched arms of Balrog and Honda. You hear Honda say, "How about our explosive finale?" His lips don't move, even though you hear him say it.

Guyver: Dark Hero picture

Audio problem: During the final battle, when Sean and Crane start fighting with their arm-blades, listen closely. There's just a few too many "blade clashing" sound effects added in, and it doesn't always perfectly match up to what's on-screen. More were obviously added in to make it seem more dramatic, but it doesn't quite seem "right" if you pay close attention.
