Smart People picture

Other mistake: When Lawrence and Janet are on the way to the airport and going through the tunnel, the taxi is on the wrong side of the road. This is apparent when there is a shot of the taxi, because the double yellow lines are on the left side of the screen (passenger side of the vehicle).

Disaster Movie picture

Other mistake: In the shot where the Hulk's pants get ripped off by the wind, you can see that he's wearing green underwear (helps if you pause it at the right moment). (00:43:25)

W. (2008)

W. picture

Other mistake: Near the very end of the movie, Bush has a college baseball game on between the Texas Longhorns and the Miami Hurricanes. We see a Miami player rounding third and scoring at home plate. But the TV announcer says, "and Texas takes a 2-1 lead." With Miami doing the scoring, Texas can't be taking the lead at that moment.

Kung Fu Panda picture

Other mistake: When the villagers return to their homes, Po is seen emerging from an alley obscured with dust. In the shot where we can only see his profile, Po's "cape" is blowing in the wind, but the dust does not seem to be affected.

Suggested correction: You'd have been correct if the only inconsistency was a misaligned cloak. But that scene is far too elaborate. At first, we see a stereotypical legendary warrior in a long cape and straw hat pacing through magical dust. But soon, Po's figure transforms completely; even the dust vanishes without leaving a trace. I think what we see is either what the villagers thought to have seen or a mirage that the magic dust had cast.

Tropic Thunder picture

Other mistake: After the part where Cockburn explodes to bits on a mine, Speedman finds and picks up his walkie talkie as Cody is trying to communicate through it. The device is not only smoldering hot, causing Speedman to have to drop it, but it even appears to be melted. With the amount of heat it went though, much less the jar of the explosion, it should not have been still working at all. The 'actors' should not have heard Cody though it. Not only this, but the establishing shot of it on the ground shows the antenna snapped and broken over. (00:29:50)

The Love Guru picture

Other mistake: In the beginning of the movie when Mike Myers starts to play 9 to 5, the title comes on the screen. Beneath it it says: (R) MXVIII Paramount Pictures. It's actually supposed to say MMVIII as the movie was made in the year 2008 and not in year 1018. (00:04:40)

Baby Mama picture

Other mistake: In two separate scenes the same item is used. One at Angie's apartment, when Kate drops her off after the procedure, as soon as they get to the top of the steps and turn the corner there is a sconce visible on the wall with no candle... Later that same sconce is in Kate's apartment (in the scene where Oscar is drinking a red-bull, it is to the left of him). (00:19:35 - 00:28:20)

Made of Honor picture

Other mistake: It makes no sense that the tartan that Collin's mother puts on the wedding dress does not match the tartan that Colin is wearing at the Highland Games. Clan tartans are a big deal in Scotland so this makes no sense.

Other mistake: In the end credits, the pseudo-newspaper text surrounding James Marsden reads "The best man was Kevin Doyle's long-time friend and colleague, Trent, who has [James Marsden] The best man was Kevin Doyle's long-time friend and colleague, Trent, who has recently taken over." The part before the actor's name is repeated immediately after.

Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging picture

Other mistake: When Jas and Georgia are playing netball and talking to each other about how Georgia used Dave to make Robbie jealous, they are on goal attack and goal defence. However, they are only allowed on the first third of the court. However, they are both of the center third of the court, and in a netball game that would call for a foul.

Futurama: Bender's Game picture

Other mistake: When Leela is pumping dark matter, you see the lumps in the hose that's supposed to be the matter. But the nozzle is a regular nozzle, and the balls squeeze through easily, even though they're super-dense, and therefore solid.
