Thunderbirds picture

Other mistake: Wouldn't Thunderbird 1 leave some sort of burn marks on the pool side as it lifts off? The blast pattern is close enough to the sides.

Starsky & Hutch picture

Other mistake: After taking a knife to the leg, Starsky hops off in obvious pain, not able to put weight on the hurt leg. When he is putting his "bad cop" routine on for the Korean man, he walks perfectly fine, but then when he walks from the door to the table (after Hutch and the man have their meal and conversation), he walks with a very pronounced limp. (00:56:25)

Noel picture

Other mistake: Rose's secretary tells her that Rose's sister couldn't spend Christmas with her. But in Rose's mother's hospital room, all of the childhood pictures she points out shows a girl and a boy, not two girls. One could claim that they also had a brother, and that there was never taken any photos of her sister, but since the whole story is about the fact that Rose doesn't have anyone to spend X-mas with, wouldn't she call her brother if she had one?

Mr. 3000 picture

Other mistake: The timing for the Hall of Fame vote is all wrong. The vote and the announcement for the Hall of Fame happen in December and January, not during the middle of the season.

Troy picture

Other mistake: While the Trojan warning gongs ring, in the shot of the citizens when they run past the guards to return to the safety within the walls, there is something stuck to the left side of the camera (it looks like a long piece of hair), which flickers on the screen as the camera continues to pan in closer. (00:35:30)

Exorcist: The Beginning picture

Other mistake: Both times that Father Merrin ventures into the sacrificial chamber beneath the church, as he is walking down the flight of stairs, the rock wall behind him is well lit as if there were another lamp sitting right in front of it. In the shot immediately after it, the rocks are in total darkness, even though he has not moved much. He is already far from them in the first place, so the light could not have reached the rock wall and illuminated it so brightly.

Taxi picture

Other mistake: When the taxi and the BMW are driving down the alley, the robbers are trying to escape, the cop is running after them on foot, they reach the end of the alley the BMW takes off but the taxi stops for the cop and he shows up shortly after. There is no way he could've caught up to them that fast. Not unless he can run at 30mph.

Other mistake: In the beginning of the film, letters on the screen describe the lady as the "Musican's Wife" It should be "Musician's Wife. "Musician's" is misspelled.

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow picture

Other mistake: When Polly notices the reflection of Joe's airplane marking on the water, the code "hllod" gives "Polly." That's impossible. To get "polly" from "hllod," a person would have to rotate the word 180 degrees, not view it as a mirror reflection.

New York Minute picture

Other mistake: When the twins and the dog are on the trashcan, they all move down the side of the trashcan, even the dog. IT really couldn't happen the way it did because dogs can't walk very smoothly on their hind legs especially when their hind legs probably are dangling in mid air.

A Very Long Engagement picture

Other mistake: The opening scene shows a soldier lighting his cigarette from a lantern. Not only does the cigarette not touch the flame, no smoke is seen as the soldier puffs on it.

Welcome to Mooseport picture

Other mistake: Sally is supposedly drying off a newly delivered puppy (looks like a yellow lab). Besides the fact that a vet wouldn't take a newborn from its mother unless there was something wrong, this puppy is dry, its eyes are open, and it looks about six weeks old.

Dawn of the Dead picture

Other mistake: Near the beginning, Ana speeds away from her home down winding streets in the suburbs. In an aerial views of the houses, look closely at the row of homes at the bottom of the screen. None of the homes are shown with driveways or sidewalks. Essentially, there is no way getting to these homes. This is revealed in the commentary by the director who realized the mistake, but didn't care.

House of Flying Daggers picture

Other mistake: During the Bamboo Forest Fight after Mei's bamboo weapon is destroyed, Jin jumps in to rescue her by stopping 4 swords in a close-up shot. But the third sword from the left is underneath Jin's, so should have made contact with Mei.
