Continuity mistake: Near the end of the movie, when Jack is talking to Angelica on the deserted island before leaving her, you can see the gold earring in her left ear in the shot over her shoulder facing Jack.

And a final shot from behind Jack, where Angelica's ear is covered again.
Continuity mistake: When Philip asks the mermaid to give him back his life, the position of her hands keeps changing between shots.

Continuity mistake: While fighting against Blackbeard in the fountain of youth, Barbossa falls down and bends completely forward to help himself up. When the angle changes he is in a different position, about to stand up.
Suggested correction: It's already common knowledge that ALL the Pirate's movies have a bonus scene after the credits. This doesn't count as trivia.
And how do things become "common" knowledge? By being listed somewhere such that people who don't know things can discover them. By your reasoning no trivia should ever be listed anywhere, because everyone should know it all already.

Actually, just because something may seem common to your or I, it might not be common knowledge to someone else.
