Twilight

Corrected entry: During the first biology scene, the planaria switches positions with each shot. The last shot it is moved back to where it started.

Correction: This is intentional. The shots are not subsequent - it is a montage of a few shots, showing the various stages during the lesson, to emphasize how long and uncomfortable it is for Bella to be sitting next to Edward with the way he was treating her and glaring at her. Therefore the items, including the planaria, are not in the same position in each shot.

Hamster

Corrected entry: When Bella and Mike talk about the school prom, you can see the microphone reflected in the pick-up's window. (00:25:50)

Correction: There is no boom microphone reflected in the window - what might look like a mic is actually just Bella reflecting into the small triangular part of the window. Other than that, there are no other reflections.

Hamster

Corrected entry: Vampire hair doesn't grow, but in the beginning of the movie, Edward's hair is short and above his ears a bit. Throughout the course of the film, it becomes longer and fuller and then short again. Note: look at his hair length before they enter the restaurant.

Correction: No-where in the film (or in the books for that matter) does it mention that vampire hair doesn't grow. This is an assumption that comes from other vampire films and books.

Corrected entry: When Bella is first herded into the warehouse area by the potential rapists, before Edward arrives, you can see a cameraman up on the warehouse stairs and in the next shot from the same angle he is gone.

Correction: It's not a cameraman. It's two people making out.

Corrected entry: When Edward drops Bella off at the prom - she sits on the bench and Jacob approaches her. Edward first begins to walk off in front of the car and in the next shot he is driving it away.

Correction: It's not a mistake, there's just a short time lapse. Edward is already in the car when Jacob appears. You can hear the car driving away as Jacob says, "hi" to Bella.

raywest

Corrected entry: When Bella goes on the field trip, and Edward and Bella are talking by the bus you can see that the bus doesn't say Forks High School it says Quilette Valley School.

Correction: Actually, the school bus says Quillayute Valley School District, and Forks High School IS in this school district.

Corrected entry: When Jessica says Bella invited Edward, Embry is without a sweet, but when Ben asks, "What?" Embry is chewing on a sweet. Then when Mike says that the Cullens are freaks, once again Embry is without a sweet. (00:33:00)

Correction: He put a sweet in his mouth and then swallowed it.

JagSmakarSkit

Corrected entry: During the scene where Bella asks Edward if there are "other vampires out there," Edward responds with a "yeah" without his mouth moving at all. (01:00:40)

Correction: You can say "Yeah" without any visible motion.

Phixius

Corrected entry: In the prom scenes, when Bella and Edward are walking into the prom, there are numerous shots of people dancing. In one particular shot, Victoria can be seen standing in front of a big game wheel which is part of the Monte Carlo theme. Wouldn't Edward somehow have sensed that she was near?

Correction: No. Edward can hear thoughts, not "sense" the presence of individuals. There's a room full of people whose thoughts and voices are drowning out Victoria's thoughts.

Phixius

Corrected entry: On the field trip to the greenhouse, Bella doesn't have her coat on, but as she is leaving the greenhouse she has her coat on.

Correction: She's wearing it before - perfectly plausible that she simply removed it in the humid environment, then put it back on when she left.

Corrected entry: In the cafeteria after Edward picks up the apple, when he's asking Bella 'what if he's the bad guy' his ear is reddened flesh colored as if he just came in from the cold, not white like the rest of his face.

cupcakeninja

Correction: Vampires have blood, and it is stated in the book that they can appear "flushed" under certain physical or emotional conditions. At first, Edward is very nervous when he is near Bella.

raywest

Corrected entry: At the beginning, when Charlie and Bella are walking into the house and just about to go up the stairs, if you look at the upper right of the screen towards the living room, you can see presumably a crew member standing there, as no-one else is meant to be in the house.

prncssfpwr

Correction: It's just a jacket hanging on the back of a door.

Jon Sandys

Corrected entry: When you first see Charlie's house, there is a truck parked in the driveway. When he is unloading Bella's bags from the cruiser's trunk, the truck is gone.

ashleysugg

Correction: It's there, just out of shot - we see the back end of it very briefly.

Corrected entry: When Edward and Bella are at the top of the forest/mountain, lying beside each other, Edward is wearing a shirt without any pockets. Then, as the sun is shining on both of them, he is wearing a shirt with a pocket.

Correction: It's the same shirt with pockets throughout the entire scene, so look closely, use zoom if necessary, and you can see the pocket the entire time.

Corrected entry: When Charlie gets Bella new tires, he walks to his car, says something and then ducks into the car. When Bella thanks him for the new tires, he's standing straight up and then ducks back into the car for a second time.

Correction: No, he stood back up so he wouldn't look like he was ignoring her, THEN sat back down.

Corrected entry: In the baseball scene, when Jasper hits the ball and runs, you see Carlisle run to third base. But when Rosalie hits the second time, Carlisle runs again to third base.

Correction: Already submitted and corrected. This is a common occurrence in baseball. It's called "stealing third" and Carlisle failed.

Phixius

Corrected entry: During the baseball scene, Rosalie slides into home and Bella calls her out. The next frame shows Emmett saying "Out!" but he makes the gesture for safe.

Correction: So? He was goofing? He was confused on the signs? Not a real mistake - just a character's quirk and mistake.

Brenda Elzin

Corrected entry: When they drive up to the baseball field, they are facing the field when they park, but when they get in to leave, the jeep is already turned around.

Correction: When they arrived at the field, the Jeep was pulled so close to the field, it was practically on it. It was moved prior to beginning the game and, apparently, turned around.

Brenda Elzin

Corrected entry: When Bella and Edward arrive at the prom, if you look closely, Victoria can be seen in the background. She's standing at the roulette wheel - her red hair in a bun and she is wearing a white fur.

Correction: How is that a mistake that she is at the prom? Victoria is checking where Edward and Bella are because she has vengeance on her mind, so it would make sense that she is hiding at the prom to spy on them.

Tricia Webster

Corrected entry: In the first segment of the scene where Edward tells Bella that he was changed first, then Esme, it's raining and they are wet. After the cut scene showing Carlisle changing Esme, it's no longer raining and Edward and Bella are dry.

loverboy1980

Correction: Wrong. Note the passage of time; they have changed clothes and location.

More trivia for Twilight

Question: When Edward and Bella were by the lockers at school, how come Edward couldn't read Bella?

Answer: Edward is able to read anyone's mind "except" for Bella's. He cannot understand why and that confuses and frustrates him. It is learned later that Bella has an unknown ability to block any mental intrusion. That is why Aro could not see Bella's memories and why Jane was unable to mentally inflict pain on her in "Twilight: New Moon."

raywest

Answer: Edward can't read Bellas mind because of an invisible barrier that protects her from mind effects. After she became a vampire, she was actually able to transfer the barrier to protect people. However she had to train to control the power.
