Smart House picture

Other mistake: It's reasonable to assume that the house can hide small things like posters and even shelves when projecting images on the walls. When Ben's two friends arrive for the party, one of the walls shows an image and the couch disappears, and that's just way too big of an object to simply phase away, given what we see that the house can do.

The General's Daughter picture

Other mistake: Both Brenner and Sunhill are First Sergeants, yet their military IDs are very different: Brenner's is just a plastic ID card, but Sunhill has both a police ID badge as well as a paper card authorizing her to make arrests.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Paul Brenner is a Chief Warrant Officer 4, Sarah Sunhill is a Chief Warrant Officer 2. His mil ID is 1SG because he is undercover, it's not Paul Brenner's. First Sergeants are never CID agents, though Master Sergeants could be. Brenner holds his CID credentials to the MP's at the gate when heading to the murder scene.

The Talented Mr. Ripley picture

Other mistake: Tom Ripley's ticket says first class in the limo, but when he boards, the rich girl says she saw his stuff in the third class stack. Dickie also says that he's a third class mooch, but according to his ticket he rode first class, so that'd make him a first class mooch, not third. His cabin is never shown. (00:07:20)

Varsity Blues picture

Other mistake: Multiple mistakes are made at the end of the game against the Wildcats. Before the final touchdown, the Wildcats are shown leading 13-0 with 6:00 minutes left in the game. After the touchdown, the Wildcats are shown leading 20-3 with 3 seconds left in the game. Based on Mox's position in the two shots, no other plays happened, meaning that the time and score in one of the shots is incorrect. The clock also continues to run when the touchdown is scored even though it's supposed to stop.
