Outcast picture

Other mistake: It is stated by the caption ("The far East; 3 years later") that the events of most of the movie take place 3 years after the prologue. Thus, both Nicolas Cage and Hayden Christensen have made it to China and learned flawless Chinese (there's no language barrier whatsoever and they understand each other perfectly at all times) in less time than that, while being on crack and on other considerable hardships, too.

Some Kind of Beautiful picture

Other mistake: In the flashback to Richard's childhood, when he looks from the door at his dad randomly shagging a party guest, the door appears open wider in the POV than it is in the other shots, where the opening barely fits his head. Besides, with the head in that position, he wouldn't see the door handle as shown. (00:02:00)

Boyhood picture

Other mistake: Mason Sr spends time with Sam and Mason every other weekend. After going to the Butterfly Center, they tossed a football and ran around (playing tag?) a while before going to the Houston Astros vs. Milwaukee Brewers baseball game. The limited footage of the game in the movie (which included Astros #16's home run) was adequate to identify it as the 4/17/06 game that started at 7:07 PM... on a Monday (not over the weekend). (00:39:45)

Zombie Fight Club picture

Other mistake: After the longest introduction ever, a text crawl (in English in the original version too) details the event leading to the titular fight club. It says that the city fell "A PART" and the institution "IS COLLAPSED." Also, it warns us; "cannibalistic zombies are malformed." (00:59:30)

Everly picture

Other mistake: The blonde hair sticks out from a spot opposite to the one Everly dumped the corpse in. It should also be noted that after cleaning the bloodstain right by it's really hard to imagine she could have missed something so conspicuous. (00:42:25)

Guardians of the Galaxy picture

Other mistake: At the end when the ship crashes that part of the city is leveled - we see injured people, but no one is covered in dust or dirt thrown up by the impact - everyone is clean.

Ouija picture

Other mistake: While exploring the attic, Lane sees a yellow chair in the attic. Trouble is the attic opening is much too small for that size of chair to have gotten through.

Ardennes Fury picture

Other mistake: When Lance and the coloured soldier disembark the tank near the start it's heavily raining, and they get soaked. However, the rest of the crew around and on top of the tank stay completely dry. (00:06:10)

A Merry Friggin' Christmas picture

Other mistake: The clock on the kitchen wall was at 5:03 PM when Donna asked, "Where the heck can they be?" After an outside scene and returning to the kitchen, the clock was still at 5:03 when Donna said she couldn't find her camera. The battery in the clock could have been dead, but the display time was what could be expected around dinnertime (suggesting the clock was supposed to be in working condition). The "non-advancing" clocks seem to be a common occurrence in movies. (00:10:20 - 00:11:18)
