Other mistake: In 99% of movies, cars have their windows rolled down to avoid the filming crew from being reflected. This is even more weird when cars are parked or it's raining.

Common mistakes
18th Jun 2022
Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)
Other mistake: When the movie begins and a Terminator walks on the beach, there's a car framework in front. His leg clips through it. CGI glitch there. (00:02:38)
13th Apr 2022
PAW Patrol: The Movie (2021)
Other mistake: When the car stops and Chase is left on the curb the door is closed and it magically goes through him. (00:11:54)

And Just Like That... (2021)
Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered - S1-E8
Other mistake: When Charlotte is on the phone the reflection of the mirror behind has very evidently been digitally blurred, most surely to avoid filming crew reflections. Notice how just the left half of the mirror is blurred.
4th Jan 2022
Jason and the Argonauts (1963)
Other mistake: When Jason unscrews Talos' heel blood spurts but 1) it never creates a puddle and 2) the blood jet disappears in the wide shots.
10th Dec 2021
Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2020)
Other mistake: When Gary is about to test the trap check the bus door on the right: there's a reflection of what seems to be his shirt, but it's a long sleeved wrinkled shirt, not the short sleeved he's wearing. What's even more bizarre: when Gary moves around, the reflection stays completely still and, drumroll, a shot later, from the very same angle, the reflection disappears. Either it was a crew member hiding, or a CGI-made reflection placed to hide some unwanted crew or equipment reflection.
9th Nov 2021
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
Other mistake: When the kids pedal away from the FBI and turn towards the homes under construction, skidmarks from previous takes are visible before the FBI cars arrive.
13th Oct 2021
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987)
Other mistake: The part of the great wall of China that Superman fixes where bricks grow has nothing to do with the broken part from before, nor with the wall we see once he fixes it.
20th May 2021
The Witches (2020)
Other mistake: When the white mouse runs to save the brown mouse, he runs at normal speed, but the witches move in slo-mo for reasons unknown. (00:47:23)
9th Apr 2021
The Infiltrator (2016)
Other mistake: The movie poster shows a reflection of a $100 bill on the lenses. The bill should be flipped.

Suggested correction: Since this isn't part of a scene in the movie, it's not a mistake. It's just a stylized image. It would be no different from pointing out a group of people superimposed over each other or appearing larger than big objects they're next to.
8th Dec 2020
Goldfinger (1964)
Other mistake: Inside the plane Bond punches Goldfinger's chest. However, Goldfinger reacts as if he had been punched in the face.
3rd Jul 2020
Sex and the City (1998)
Other mistake: When Carrie opens the newspaper to read her column, the same paragraph is repeated at least twice.
17th Jun 2020
After Life (2019)
Episode #1.1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: When Tony walks by the school there's a girl in a blue dress with a hula hoop that can't stop staring at the camera.
1st Jun 2020
Sex and the City (1998)
The drought - S1-E11
Other mistake: When Carrie is trying to kiss Big, the reflection on the TV doesn't match the opposite side: The lamp and Carrie are missing.
6th May 2020
Richard Jewell (2019)
Other mistake: When Kenny Rogers sings and Richard's mom claps, everybody is looking at the left except for a man with a hat who can't help staring at the camera all the time.
15th Mar 2020
Superman II (1980)
Other mistake: When the three villains jump out of the Daily Planet window they just break some glass; however, from a ground level shot huge chunks of concrete are falling. This is more dramatic, indeed, but senseless.
22nd Nov 2019
Mission: Impossible 2 (2000)
Other mistake: Ambrose smacks a stone on Ethan's forehead. No blood nor even a bruise appears seconds later when Ethan is kicked in the face and we get a close-up of him.
2nd Aug 2019
Casino (1995)
Other mistake: When the man goes into the casino and takes a suitcase full of money to Kansas, he is parking in a supermarket. Later in the movie, after a plane lands on the golf course the same shot of the car in the supermarket is repeated. Check for the same parked cars: a blue VW beetle and a red car.
19th Jul 2019
On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969)
Other mistake: In the bobsleigh chase, when a grenade rolls around Blofeld's feet the rear projection FX suddenly swaps from showing a tunnel to showing a landscape going wildly in circles, as if the bobsleigh had crashed. However, on the following shot the bobsleigh is sliding along the tunnel normally and the rear projection plays the tunnel projection as if nothing had happened.
16th Jul 2019
Toy Story (1995)
Other mistake: When Andy's friends show up all of the Caucasian boys have Andy's face and hair. Most surely due to the limited technology available then, but weird nevertheless.
