Corrected entry: When Jim Belushi and Linda Hamilton go to the Miniature Golf Course, the song "Gimme Some Lovin'" by the Spencer Davis Group is playing. As part of the intro to the song, one lyric is to yell "Hey". The scene shows Jim Belushi lip synching this, but he does so one measure too soon. (01:19:40)

Correction: The song is part of a music montage. Larry (Jim Belushi) & Ellen (Linda Hamilton) are only hearing the song in the diner. By the time they get to the mini golf course, they no longer hear the song. What Larry in fact is doing is yelling "Okay" to Ellen, so she knows she can open her eyes.

Corrected entry: When Courtney Cox fires the gun at Belushi she is holding a .45 automatic. The standard clip holds around 8 rounds and she fires well over that amount. Also with EVERY automatic handgun when the clip empties the slide locks back, which it didn't in the movie.

Correction: NOT every automatic's slide stays open when emptied - I have 2 and neither of them stays open.

Revealing mistake: When Larry is camping in the tree outside Ellen's house, if you look at his face before he falls it is a stuntman falling, not James Belushi. (01:03:35)

Trivia: Ellen Robertson's dog is named Hercules. Hercules was the name of Arnold Schwarzenegger's character in his first movie, and Arnold also starred with Linda Hamilton (who played Ellen Robertson/Burrows) in The Terminator and Terminator 2. This was done again in Terminator 3: Rise of The Machines which had a scene with a cat named Hercules. (01:02:50 - 01:11:25)

Question: What about those kids he had, what happened to them?

Answer: Nothing, they're from an alternate reality, Jim Belushi was shown a possible future if he had hit that home run. A different life, job, wife and kids.
