Red 2 picture

Corrected entry: When Sarah shoots with Marvin's Mag 44, you can tell it is loaded with blanks, since that gun should have a very powerful recoil, but she holds it completely steady.

Jacob La Cour

Correction: It's mentioned in dialog that it is a Sig, not a Mag. Sigs generally have a smaller round and therefore a lower recoil.

We're the Millers picture

Corrected entry: In the end of the movie, when they deliver the drugs, Brad says it's all here, but we know it's not, because of the "baby" that was run over by the semi trucks earlier.

Indigo Noir

Correction: We don't see this meeting take place from the beginning. David undoubtedly told Brad about how this bale came to be lost, along with many other highlights from his trip, as the goods were being brought in to Brad's office.

Diana picture

Corrected entry: Diana is driving her car to the hospital on the right side of the road. But she is in England, and she should be driving on the left side. (00:30:05)

Correction: When we see Diana driving to the hospital, she's driving down a 1-way (and 1-lane) road.

Elysium picture

Corrected entry: There are two plot holes in the factory that Matt Damon works in, where they build droids. There are very sophisticated droids throughout the movie performing several different tasks. So why is he working there where his job is to stamp sheet metal, attach it with bolts, and then move the droids to the oven? Surely a droid would be capable of this work, and with the factory's high level of production they would likely be able to afford a generic one for those menial tasks. Also, what is the purpose of the giant oven that irradiates everything inside? It can't be to temper or treat the metal of the droids, because then you have radioactive robots, which also means this can't be a way of charging up their batteries/ power plant. Plus they're assembled by this time, so it's irradiating the wires, hydraulics, and circuitry as well.

Correction: Both points in this entry are based on assumptions and unknown information. It's entirely plausible that at this point in the future human labor is actually less costly than robot labor. Also, not knowing the purpose of the radiation is not a mistake. Watching the film my assumption was that the radiation room was some sort of test of the materials to be sure they could withstand radiation.

The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones picture

Corrected entry: In the scene where Isabelle does Clary's hair, the piece of hair continues to change sides/positions all the way until Jace takes it out.

Correction: The first time Isabelle does her hair she's looking in a mirror, therefore the hair would be on the opposite side when the shot is of the mirror.

Rush picture

Corrected entry: In the scene at Nürburgring where Niki leaves the pit after his tire change, he closes his helmet visor. In the next shot where he is stuck behind the car the visor is open. (01:09:40)

Kris Eskra

Correction: Just as Niki is blocked by Andretti, you can see his right hand is moving to open the visor again.

The Last Stand picture

Corrected entry: There is no way a Corvette ZR1 6.2i V8 can drive that far at that speed without having to make a fuel stop.

Correction: No one in the movie ever said the car didn't make a stop for fuel. It still could have happened, and not just be shown on screen.

Devil's Pass picture

Corrected entry: As Holly and Jensen are discussing Velma (one of the Scooby Doo characters), two figures can be seen crouched down and crossing from right to left behind a ridge in the background, at about the same level as Holly's right elbow. (00:38:00)

Canuck5

Correction: This is not a mistake. The figures you see in the background in this scene are the creatures that are in the movie. This is one of the first glimpses of them, it's a tension builder.

The Hangover Part III picture

Corrected entry: At Alan's dad's funeral, when Alan takes a picture of himself in front of his dad's portrait with his camera phone, the phone's camera is facing away from him. This is corroborated further when he takes a picture later in the film with the same phone of Phil climbing down to the balcony of Chow's suite at Caesar's Palace. The phone's camera is now correctly facing towards Phil. (00:09:25 - 01:10:15)

Neo X

Correction: A good number of phones have dual cameras, where you can switch back and forth from a front facing camera to a rear facing one so that you can always see the screen. One for self pictures, such as when he take a picture of himself posing with his father's picture, and one for taking a picture of Stu on the balcony.

Bad Words picture

Corrected entry: The main character misspells the word Rugose during the spelling bee, yet is not eliminated.

Correction: The rules require that when they are down to two contestants, the second contestant must spell a word correctly in order to win. Since the next word was also spelled incorrectly, they keep alternating until one or the other is eliminated by the other speller spelling correctly after an incorrectly spelled word.

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters picture

Corrected entry: After Grover is kidnapped, Percy tells Annabeth that Luke said that several half bloods turned to his side. We never heard Luke say that before he left the camp.

Roman Curiel

Correction: After Percy has killed the bull, Luke appears. During the conversation between Percy and Luke, Luke tells him that he feels that the adults all think of the young demigods as "just kids". Luke then elaborates that he's not the only half-blood who thinks so, leading Percy to the conclusion that Luke has others on his side.
