Corrected entry: The Poppers take their penguins to Antarctica. As the Poppers stand amidst the snow and ice, their breath doesn't crystalise when they speak.
Corrected entry: When Will and Sylvia are running to get to the Timekeeper's car in one of the last scenes, while Sylvia is running she has on flat shoes, but when Will is running back to her and they meet she has on heels again.
Correction: After reviewing this scene carefully, it can be seen that in every shot showing her shoes, she is actually running in the heels.
Corrected entry: [Bit of a spoiler alert so don't' read any further if you haven't seen the movie yet.] At the end of the movie Sheriff Dewey tells the person who is the killer that Sidney is in critical condition and may or may not live but a few seconds later we see Sidney awake and alert and with enough strength to fight off the killer once again.
Correction: Anger and fear can be more than enough to gather enough strength to fight your way out of a difficult situation regardless of how much of a critical condition you are in.
Corrected entry: In the scene with the Missing Dogs Board is shown, it includes a missing Puggle. The Puggle cross-breed was not created until the 1980s.
Correction: I didn't see a Puggle, but I did see a Pug. The name above him looked like it said "Chuggles". The name definitely started with a "Ch", not "P". It didn't say Puggle.
Corrected entry: Matt Damon is sitting on a chair in a large warehouse with men from bureau. His hands are secured together. He runs and attempts to escape. They trip him and drag him back to chair. His hands are no longer secured together.
Correction: In his flee attempt it is shown he throws off his restraints, which aren't much more than some sort of band. Previous to his attempt, while the guys from the bureau are talking he's fiddling about with his restraints, probably loosening them up.
Corrected entry: An ICBM warhead does not detonate upon impact. It detonates hundreds (thousands) of meters above ground in order to maximise the effect of the explosive impact.
Correction: Nuclear warheads detonate where they are programmed to. There are generally four types of detonation:- 1. Exo-atmospheric. Warheads detonated in near-earth orbit. Causes no physical damage but creates a massive electromagnetic pulse, EMP, which can destroy vulnerable electronic systems. 2. Airburst. Detonation at a height of 5 to 10 thousand feet is ideal when targeting cities, maximum physical damage, but less in the way of fallout. 3. Groundburst. Used primarily against military targets - airfields, naval bases, missile silos, etc. Massive damage but with large amounts of radioactive fallout which would hamper rescue and repair efforts. 4. Subsurface. To destroy a hardened underground facility, such as a missile launch control centre, government bunker or the NORAD facility at Cheyenne Mountain, a large nuclear warhead is fitted with a penetrator, a hardened steel nose, that uses the speed of reentry to 'punch' through the ground before detonation. The physical damage above ground is severe but these warheads produce massive amounts of fallout.
Corrected entry: During Isaac's death in the massage parlor, after his phone rings during the acupuncture scene the elderly woman takes his phone and puts it on the edge of the shelf near a candle, however in the next shot the phone is not on the edge of the shelf but further into the shelf and right next to the candle.
Correction: It's not the next shot. And the reason it moves towards the candle is because it's on vibrate which makes it move.
Corrected entry: In the machine gunning of the train carriage scene the weapon would not have been available to the soldiers in 1891. While an order by the British army is said to have been placed in late 1888 for 120 Maxim guns it first saw only limited use during the First Matabele War of 1893. It officially entered British Service only in 1896, seeing action during the First Boer War.
Correction: The implication is that these men were not British soldiers but agents of Moriarty.
Corrected entry: The Colt pistol's box is form fitted for a revolver, not a semi-automatic and the gun was described as having pearl grips but shown with wooden grips.
Correction: The gun used by Mick is a semi-automatic acquired for him by his driver and not the Colt Woodsman. The revolver was stolen by Roulet, and is the gun used by his mother, Mrs Winter, to shoot Mick near the end. After Mick fires back and she falls the gun hits the floor. It appears to be a revolver and the handle appears white in keeping with the idea of a pearl handle.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Daniel Craig and a bearded man are attempting to throw explosives into the ship's hangar, the bearded man drops all the matches over the ledge. However, in the shot where the matches fall toward the camera, you can see one of the matches still sticking out on the ledge. This would invalidate the brief problem of not having any matches.
Correction: They still needed a surface to ignite the matches on. Even if late 1800's matches could be ignited on "any surface", Jake saw a easy solution, making the need for matches moot.
Corrected entry: During the scene when Hilley is driving in a hurry out to Skeeter's house after the book is released, there is an aerial shot where we see her car careening around a corner. She nearly runs off the road and is fish tailing down the road. Ahead of her car, skid marks from a fish tailing vehicle can be seen. These are most likely from additional takes of the same scene.
Correction: This is conjecture and not really based on fact. How do we know it wasn't a different vehicle from carousing teenagers speeding around on a country road?
Corrected entry: At the beginning of the film, Kristen Wiig is leaving Jon Hamm's house. When the gate won't open, she tosses her purse over the wall before trying to climb over herself. The gate opens when she's halfway over, cutting to an exterior shot, and the purse is nowhere to be seen. (00:04:10)
Correction: You can see the purse on the ground, it's not in the original spot because it gets pushed by the opening gate.
Corrected entry: Throughout the film, Atom's shadow function switches back and forth between mirror and mimic for no apparent reason or command from Charlie or Max.
Correction: It's mirror when his shadow is facing him head-on, mimic when his shadow is visible but not actually facing him.
Corrected entry: The invitation from August to Jacob uses the name Rosenbluth instead of Rosenblum.
Corrected entry: In Kung Fu Panda 2, Master Shifu is seen with Master Oogway's staff throughout the movie. however, in the first movie, Tai Lung breaks it. So there is no way he could be using it, if it snapped in half.
Correction: Master Oogway's staff has something wrapped around it where it broke before, to keep it in one piece.
Corrected entry: In the movie they show the filming of many scenes in the silent movie. They use a "Clapboard" to start the scene. Granted the slate part was accurate but the clapper was designed for sound use to line up sound with the film, so wouldn't have been used before the advent of talkies.
Correction: Wrong. The filming of silent films are shown using slates that don't have clappers. Clapboard slates are used only in the depiction of what are talkies within the world of the film (such as in the final scene).
Corrected entry: In the scene when Daniel Craig is in the woods scouting around, he is shot at by a hunter's rifle. The impact of the bullet is near a tree or pole, over his left shoulder. He ducks to the right. It appears the shot missed him. When he appears back in the frame, it looks like his left temple is nicked. In the next scene Lisbeth is using dental floss to stitch up his right temple which is bleeding.
Correction: Daniel Craig is actually standing in-line, if not barely in front of, the pole/tree, from the camera's/audiences perspective. We can say when he turns his head camera left in this scene that his head is dissecting the pole. The shot actually comes from camera left. It nicks/grazes Daniel Craig's right temple when his head is slightly turned camera left and then hits the pole/tree. We can say it comes from camera left because the location of the family members homes is established earlier in the movie and as we know by the end it was Stellan Skarsgard's character who took the shot.
Corrected entry: When greeted by Tomar-Re on Oa Hal Jordan knows all about Tomar-Re's sector. He now knows the number of galaxies in it and number of inhabitants, because his ring has fed the information to him from its database. Yet, it doesn't make sense the ring's database doesn't seem to have any information about Oa, the green lantern corps or the guardians, and Hal has to ask Tomar-Re.
Correction: It's reasonable to assume that the Green Lantern initiation process specifies that the basic information should be supplied by another member of the Corps, and that only subsequent information can be downloaded straight from the power ring. After all, Hal finds it bizarre enough to suddenly know the information about Tomar-Re's sector - had the ring simply info-dumped the whole thing into his head right from the start, he could have completely freaked out, which could lead to him rejecting the ring entirely. A far more reasonable approach to start with a one-to-one chat, then let the ring do its thing after that.
Corrected entry: In the scene at the apartment where Vika, Anne, and Natalie are scavenging supplies, an alien sees them from outside of the building through a window. According to the shopping center/mall scene the aliens cannot see a person through glass, therefore the alien shouldn't have been able to spot them through the window.
Correction: The window is open so the alien would be able to see them.
Corrected entry: When Cameron Diaz first meets Justin Timberlake, you can see lots of green in the reflection of his glasses, which would be the nice big green screen.
Correction: Or the anti-reflective coating on the plastic lenses of his glasses, which appears green when looking at glasses from the front.
Correction: This type of 'mistake' has been corrected time after time. Just because it is cold doesn't mean you always see breath. It's more variable with humidity than cold in that sometimes you can see breath with temperatures above freezing, other times you don't see it even when well below freezing.
