Stupidity: There is no security team on earth that would allow a major pop star to walk around in the hallways of an arena without being by her side at all times, not to mention allowing her to be alone in a room with a stranger she just met that night.

Stupidity: There is no way that the FBI/SWAT team would allow a serial killer that they are taking into custody to not only stop and straighten his daughter's bicycle, but also allow said daughter to run up and hug him. This isn't some white-collar criminal being taken away on tax evasion charges.

Dirty Business - S4-E6

Plot hole: Starlight, Kimiko, and Hughie are torturing Tek Knight by transferring millions of dollars to organizations he hates. Even though it's needed to move the plot forward, there is no way they could have known the routing and account numbers for those organizations.

Continuity mistake: This film takes place after the events of "Alien." At the end of "Alien," the Nostromo is vaporized in a massive nuclear explosion, but in this film, massive chunks of it are found floating in space. Not to mention the fact that even if such giant pieces survived, they would have been propelled outward indefinitely and would not all be floating in the same confined area.

Continuity mistake: After Rain shoots all the xenomorphs in zero gravity, and she and Andy have to traverse through the floating blood splatter, the bodies of the dead xenomorphs have suddenly disappeared.

wizard_of_gore ★

Factual error: When Rain shoots the Xenomorphs in zero gravity, their blood forms long ribbons and other splatter-type patterns. In reality, due to surface tension, liquid in zero gravity forms into spheres. The blood would not have remained 'stretched out' like it does.

Trivia: Near the beginning of the movie, as the SWAT vehicles are approaching, a billboard is visible in the background advertising the movie "The Watchers", which was directed by M. Night Shyamalan's daughter, Ishana.

Factual error: The cloud surrounding V'ger is noted as being 82 AU (Astronomical Units) across. This is more than the distance from the Sun to Pluto and back. As such, V'ger would never have been able to approach Earth. This was adjusted to 2 AU in the special edition DVD.

Trivia: The burned-out car, along with John Candy's trunk, from "Planes, Trains and Automobiles", can be seen as part of the debris littering The Void. Ryan Reynolds has repeatedly stated how much he loved John Candy and his Del Griffith character, and there is a reference to him in every "Deadpool" film.

Trivia: Both of Ryan Reynolds' and Blake Lively's children have cameos in the film. Olin Reynolds plays Babypool and Inez Reynolds plays Kidpool.

Trivia: Michael Bay, director of the first two films in the franchise, has a cameo as a pissed off driver who almost runs over Mike. He's driving a black 964 Porsche 911 Turbo, which is the same car Mike drove in the first film.

Trivia: David Letterman auditioned and screen-tested for the role of Ted Striker, which ultimately went to Robert Hays.

Plot hole: SPOILER ALERT! During the final fight, Joey kills Frank and she reverts back to human form. Abigail tells her she's fine, because Frank was the one who turned her. However, when Frank kills Lambert he does not revert back to human form, even though Lambert was the one who turned him.

Factual error: The movie is set in the US, but there are several things which aren't found in the US that give away the fact that it was shot in the UK. In one scene, a Tesco superstore can be seen in the background and the lift bridge seen in the film is Kings Ferry Bridge which connects the Isle of Sheppey to the Kent mainland.

Trivia: Composer Jerskin Fendrix has a cameo as the musician playing the strange instrument in the Lisbon restaurant dance scene.

Trivia: Musician Jack White, of the White Stripes, has a cameo as one of the actors in the radio stage play at the end of the film. Another well-known musician, Pete Yorn, has a notable role as Acie Kirby.

wizard_of_gore ★

Trivia: The radio play scene at the end of the film was shot at Martin Scorsese's alma mater, Cardinal Hayes High School in the Bronx, NY, after principal photography had wrapped in Oklahoma.

Factual error: During the Christmas party, "Silent Night" by The Temptations' Silent Night is playing. That version of the song, with Glenn Leonard singing lead, wasn't released until 1980.

Factual error: When Angus and Mr. Hunham go to the liquor store, the sign on the door shows that they are open on Sundays. In 1970, Massachusetts still had blue laws in effect, and a liquor store would not have been open on a Sunday.
