The Good, The Bad, The Weird picture

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 Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior picture

Other mistake: When Noah gets hit in the back with the arrow and falls to the ground, Mathias holds him up as he dies. When he dies, he's lying on his back, even when there is an arrow sticking a good six inches out of his back.

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.

Bangkok Dangerous picture

Other mistake: Nicholas Cage travels to Bangkok with a fake Canadian passport - but his last name (he's "Vincent Cadillac") is spelled two different ways on the same document, with one L only at the bottom, which also has the wrong format (lacks "CAN", the code of the issuing country, in front of the last name). (00:07:15)

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.

Wargames: The Dead Code picture

Other mistake: When the guy is playing a computer game in the second scene, he complains to one of his teammates not following orders. He is seen with his hands away from his keyboard, yet his character in the game is moving about. (00:03:00)

Punisher: War Zone picture

Other mistake: In the dinner shootout scene, The Punisher hangs from a chandelier upside down using his legs, and starts shooting people while spinning for about 20 seconds, but there is no apparent force which makes him spin so much in the first place; he doesn't even make a "first turn" with his body in order to start spinning. (00:08:00)
