Toy Story 4 picture

Other mistake: When Jessie pops the tire on the RV, Bonnie's dad gets upset and says "I just bought it." Throughout the rest of the film however, he says the RV is a rental.

Suggested correction: Not exactly a mistake considering he bought a rental.

That's a self-contradicting statement. Buying something means you have ownership of it. Renting something means you pay for its use with the understanding that it will be returned at a specified time. You can't buy a rental any more than you can rent something you buy.

Phaneron

Suggested correction: At best it's a character mistake. As he was exasperated as Bonnie's mother says to her "Daddy's going to use some words" apparently meaning he was going to swear.

Joey221995

If it's a character mistake, it's still a mistake, so no correction is needed. I think it's a valid other mistake because it's the screen writers flipping back between owning and renting, but not an actual plot hole. I've been exasperated with a rental before and never in my anger or frustration said I bought the rented item.

Blinded by the Light picture

Other mistake: The lead is loaned cassettes of 'Darkness on the Edge of Town' and 'Born in the USA' by his mate and then quotes a lyric from 'The River' which he hasn't listened to yet.

Stuber picture

Other mistake: Vic and Stu get into a shoot out inside the animal hospital with some thugs, guns firing all over the place. The building is full of animals like dogs and cats and parrots. However, the animals stay completely calm and quiet during the entire gun fight and seem unaffected by the rapid, very loud banging of gun fire. Even right after it, a cat that just had it's tail stepped on sits on a dead body and meows like nothing happened. This is completely uncharacteristic of how animals would act to loud gunfire in an enclosed building, especially in a vet's. (00:45:00)

Aladdin picture

Other mistake: The scene after Genie saves Aladdin from drowning, Aladdin is recovering. The left pocket of his pants has a clear outline of a smartphone in it, or possibly a radio mic.

The Addams Family picture

Other mistake: In the sequence when Pugsley gives the 'reading' for the Mazurka, the written part of each of the three book pages is identical. The pages have also been flipped backwards. (01:07:50)

Holiday In The Wild picture

Other mistake: The ex-husband makes out a check for $108,000 at the start of 2020 when Kate returns from Africa after Christmas, but it is dated 3/18/2019. (01:12:06)

Knives Out picture

Other mistake: During the revelation of the second death, when the killer opens the toxicology report they just retrieved, the date is revealed; it says it was issued on 09/27/2018. But the events of the movie happen in November (it's Sunday 18th Nov when Marta wakes up with all the reporters at her door). It should also be noted that when a close-up of the report was shown earlier (when Ransom was looking at the anonymous letter brought by Marta) that copy had a big stamp in a corner saying 11-17-18, that in this copy is totally absent. (01:56:55)

Pokémon Detective Pikachu picture

Other mistake: The Psyduck is technically incapable of defending the group against the Quajutsus. Regardless of which psychic attack Psyduck uses, Quajutsu is immune to it because of its typing (water/dark).

Suggested correction: As an adaptation, the movie is allowed to bend the rules of the game. Furthermore, just because they're strong against psychic-type attacks in the game doesn't mean they'll be completely unaffected or totally immune, especially given how powerful his attack is.

Vivarium picture

Other mistake: Aerial views of Yonder gave the impression that a basic grid pattern was used - parallel horizontal and parallel vertical lines that form right angles; yards were of equal area, either a square or rectangular lot. [However, some of the views from the couple's car as they were trying to find the exit showed some slightly curved roads that didn't fit the grid.] Following the sun as a way out, the couple was jumping over fence after fence - but they could've simply walked along perpendicular roads.

Suggested correction: But they tried getting out using the road by car, and they felt that the roads were causing them to go into a loop. So instead they take a route they know for sure is straight. Btw, Yonder isn't real so the way the roads bend and how the grids are made up is purely an optical illusion.

lionhead

Walking (not driving) along the perpendicular fences would be the same difference only easier and less exerting. If/when they encountered a fence that looked different, that's when they could jump over it to see if it made a difference. How could they "know for sure" that the fences they were jumping over took them in a straight line? Also, they realised the clouds weren't real, so following something in the sky (the sun) was not necessarily a good idea. [This will be my only response here.].

Pagalpanti picture

Other mistake: The opening (like most of the movie) does not make much sense, so you can pick your kind of mistake here; the special effects are cartoonishly bad throughout the big firework explosions. When John Abraham is knocked through a window by a rocket (which takes off with a 270° turn without even rising) to the face, he gets up unscathed and starts screaming for Junky and Chandu. The camera moves from them to him and he's running with the girl in the red costume in front of him (which was way behind, safely, when he crashed through the window, so already that is wrong), and then there's a wider shot. In that shot, you can tell that Adams is bumping into the same people as before and the distances between the extras are all wrong. (00:06:35)

Jumanji: The Next Level picture

Other mistake: When the characters return to the real world, they all arrive at the same place at the same time, whereas in the previous movie "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle", it's established that the characters return to the real world at the point in time that they entered the game.

Cats picture

Other mistake: Whenever a cat puts a hat on, there are no cuts for the ears to pop through. Instead, the ears simply swap from being on the cat to being on the hat between frames. Sometimes, when the cat's head is a bit too high, the ears on the hat are sometimes slightly misplaced.

Zeroville picture

Other mistake: The Burglar (while tied to a chair and talking about "My Darling Clementine") says, "Apex of Ford's art, you feel me?" Vikar (James Franco) responds, "I feel you." The movie starts in 1969, but rapper E-40 (Earl Tyrone Stevens, Sr.) - "slang master" - supposedly created the expression "you feel me" in the early 1990s. (00:19:53)

Rim of the World picture

Other mistake: The girl turns on all generators in the basement of the JPL building. Yet there is no power to the basement where she is. Just flashes of light, highlighting the suspense. There is power everywhere else. (01:23:10)

Suggested correction: The building is severely damaged. There could be several reasons why the power in the basement isn't working.

Kim Possible picture Kim Possible mistake picture

Other mistake: In the fight at the beginning of the movie, Kim bends over and launches her jet-pack towards the villains. Almost everyone falls down way before the jet comes anywhere near and/or receive no impact, but they are KO as if they took a rocket to the gut. (00:01:40)

Other mistake: Jethro said to Brian, "Shall I tell you how I know you're lying? Because when you said that, you looked up to your left." However, Brian looked to his right and Jethro even pointed to Brian's right when he was telling Brian that he looked to his left. (00:56:00)
