Iron Man 3 picture

Other mistake: When Tony's house is destroyed by the Mandarin, watch closely when Pepper is blown through the air, just before Tony attaches his suit to her - she's very obviously wearing high-heeled shoes that would make it impossible for her feet/ankles to fit correctly into the suit without them being crunched up by the suit's boots. But later on, when she gets out, if you listen, you can hear the "clicking" of her unbroken heels as she runs around.

The World's End picture

Other mistake: One of the three girls swallows the wedding ring and later it's retrieved by pulling it out of her stomach, but earlier in the fight in the toilet when the boy's head came off, there were no pipes or tubes connecting the head to the stomach.

After Earth picture

Other mistake: When the ship begins to crash, Cypher Raige tries to calm Kitai down and is violently pushed to the far left by the force of the ship accelerating. However, less than a few seconds later, the camera shows that to Kitai's right, the force is now tearing the back end of the ship apart and sucking people outside. This is contradictory because the massive air current resulting from the ship's acceleration would have either sucked everyone, including Cypher Raige, outside, or it would have pushed them inward, which we see with Cypher Raige. There is no way for the force to suddenly change directions within the same area of the ship.

Odd Thomas picture

Other mistake: When Odd Thomas and Stormy are riding on his moped through town to stop the massacre they pass a car dealership. All of the letters on the dealership signs are reversed except for a large lighted awning sign that says "Welcome to quality." The normal and reversed signs appear at the same time in the same frame. (00:48:00)

Riddick picture

Other mistake: The trip back on foot from the nodes for Johns was way too fast, and he likely would not have had enough ammo to handle the entire trip back. From Riddick's perspective, John's left, he cauterized his wounds with some explosive debris, fought several creatures and then ascended the hill continuing to fight creatures. By the time he hit the top of the hill, Johns had made the entire trip on foot, which was long by bike, had Dahl join him, locked in the node, and piloted the ship back to Riddick.

Nebraska picture

Other mistake: In the closing credits of the film the titles of production coordinator and assistant production coordinator are misspelled as "production coördinator" and "assistant production coördinator" respectively. (01:51:47)

Suggested correction: Although the film was made by an American studio, that is British (and old American) spelling.

Leicaman

I'm British - no it isn't. The point is the umlauts on top of the second O, which isn't how "coordinator" should be spelled.

Suggested correction: For whatever reason, it was done intentionally (which would be the Dutch spelling of the word). Every "coördinator" is spelled that way, which appears at least 8 times in the credits.

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox picture

Other mistake: In the flashback of Bruce Wayne getting killed, his mother is cradling his body and weeping. She has his blood all over her hand from touching his wound. She rakes her fingers across his shoulder and down his chest with her bloody fingers, leaving no trail of blood, but when she places that same bloody hand on her face it leaves blood all over her face and mouth. (00:35:05)

They mention 5 suspects, Chrissy's parents, Brick Pimiento, Mel Richmond, Dewey Ottoman, and Lotte. When they look at the list though, only 4 pictures are shown. Chrissy's parents are not there, yet they were the first to be mentioned. (00:25:35)

Prisoners picture

Other mistake: When Detective Loki is researching the article detailing Keller's father's death, the date on the computer is 2/27/2013. This takes place shortly after Thanksgiving, which would set the movie in late November or early December, not February. (01:25:05)

Sharknado picture

Other mistake: After the bridge rescue, when the wind picks up the letters of the Hollywood Sign are uprooted and take flight, and we see the "Y" flying through the air, but later when they're driving away we can see Mt. Lee behind the car with the remaining letters, and the Y is still mounted there.

Oblivion picture

Other mistake: When the alien drone is deciding whether to shoot or not, the screen showed that the operation system was in English. It should be in an alien language or have no language.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: The drones are maintained by the Techs. The Techs speak English. So the drones have an English OS (and surely no alien language, which would be traitorous to the story in the brains of Jack and Vika).

The Lone Ranger picture

Other mistake: When the Lone Ranger is on the roof of the train he shoots at Fuller, who is uncoupling the carriages. He looks back at the train and shouts something - at this point the two trains are on a bend and The Lone Ranger is just coming into view, making his shot at Fuller impossible.

The Book Thief picture

Other mistake: Liesel goes to live with Papa and Mama in 1937, and starts attending school. About half way through the movie, 1942, Mama goes to school to tell her that Max was okay. Liesel is still sitting in the same chair and with the same teacher as in 1937, and the kids around her have not changed a bit.

Safe Haven picture

Other mistake: When the husband breaks into the old lady's house and checks her voicemail, it says that Katie left a voicemail Monday at 11:47am. When the husband calls the restaurant, the recording says they are open from Tuesday to Sunday. So Katie shouldn't have been at work.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty picture

Other mistake: When Sean Penn is about to let Ben Stiller look through his camera at the 'Ghost Cat' he bumps the camera. They are very far away from the animal and any bump of the camera would A) be immediately noticed by the worlds best photographer and B) move the subject very far out of frame.
