Hellboy II: The Golden Army

Revealing mistake: When Liz, Abe and the Agent are shooting at the Tooth Fairies, the Agent is holding his gun in his right hand, and you can see the fingers of his left hand holding on to the top of the gun's slide while he is firing, showing that it's a prop gun and the slide isn't moving.

Revealing mistake: The sealing caps of the map container have a slightly larger diameter than the container itself. When placed horizontally on a flat surface, the middle should not touch the surface. When the Prince rolls it on the table to reveal the map, the map is CGI.

Suggested correction: The fact the end caps being larger than the middle is correct, however, the middle section's reduced diameter is not the portion that touches when rolled. The middle portion has elevated sections that are what touch the table to reveal the map. When the Prince holds it up before rolling, the elevated portions on the middle are evident. Also, the end caps were not heated like the middle when rolled so no marks are left.

Continuity mistake: After the golden army bots awaken, it zooms out to show how big the army is, when they do the prince and princess disappear in the background, then reappear.

Suggested correction: There are two black silhouettes on the background, they should not be black, but still.

Question: When the Princess Nuala asks Abe what he's wearing early in the film, Abe answers "It's a breathing apparatus". But he only dons the mechanism twice in the film, and rarely wears it outside where the microbes in the air can kill him! Why even wear it?

CCARNI

Chosen answer: Why not wear it? It's clearly something that's useful to him, even if it's apparently not particularly essential. It may simply just make him more comfortable, like a human wearing a scarf in cold weather - allowing him to breathe the water that he prefers rather than air. There's never any mention that Abe can only survive for a limited time out of the water; equally, there's no suggestion that he's particularly vulnerable to atmospheric microbes. It's part of his equipment that he uses when he wishes to, that's all.
