Corrected entry: When Homer goes to the barbecue, he grabs a plate of burgers. There isn't a burger at the top of the pile. However, when Flanders talks to him there is a burger on the top.

Mr. Bean (1989)
Hair By Mr. Bean of London - S1-E19
Corrected entry: When Mr. Bean is giving a haircut to the person with grey hair, when he is trying to get the hair off the razor, the bell can be heard, but nobody walks through the door.
Correction: Every time I've watched the scene, there is only the razor noise and no bell.

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Corrected entry: When all the apes are gathering around the big block at the beginning of the film, look carefully at the sky. The clouds never move, not even slowly. (00:11:55 - 00:13:55)
Correction: It's not that they NEVER move; they just don't appear to move within the few minutes we are watching, which is perfectly natural.

So It Has Come to This: The Simpsons Clip Show - S4-E18
Corrected entry: When Mr Burns comes to the hospital, he says that Homer is costing his health insurance plan money. But in "Homer's Triple Bypass" Homer says that he gave up his health insurance with the boys at work.

The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When Homer takes a chocolate lollie from the freezer at the Kwik-E-Mart, it is exposed (we see Homer eating it later without having to peel a wrapper). Wouldn't it be in a wrapper?
Correction: Not really,there's an episode where Apu is seen putting old hot dogs to sell.So why would Apu use the safety rules now?

The Simpsons Christmas Special: Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire - S1-E1
Corrected entry: When you first see Patty and Selma, there is nothing connecting the beads on Selma's necklace.
Correction: Actually, if you look closely, you can see a thin string connecting beads, it's just not distinct enough on the yellow background.

The Simpsons (1989)
Tree House of Horror III: The Simpson's Halloween Special III - S4-E5
Corrected entry: At the beginning of the episode, Nelson punches Martin. Surely Marge would have noticed it, but she didn't.
Correction: Not really a mistake. She just didn't notice it.

Brother Can You Spare Two Dimes? - S3-E24
Corrected entry: Homer wants a vibrating chair because his sofa fell apart, which his brother buys for him at the end. In the last scene, Marge is sitting on the same sofa as if it is intact.
Correction: Homer's brother could've paid for a new, resembling the old one.

The Simpsons (1989)
Midnight Rx - S16-E6
Corrected entry: In this episode Apu says in the car on the way to Canada that he worships several gods. But in a much earlier episode, "Homer's Barbershop Quartet" during a flashback when Apu is asked to change his name he says "It is a great dishonour to my ancestors and my god."
Correction: Apu is a Hindu. Hinduism teaches that there is in fact only one god (Brahman), but that it manifests itself in many different ways, such as Vishnu, Shiva, Ganesha etc. Each of these manifestations can be worshipped as a deity, and most Hindus chooses which manifestation to worship (the "personal" aspect of the deity, Ishvara). But ultimately all prayers and sacrifices are directed to the same entity. As we can see through the entire series, Apu worships Ganesha primarily, but he would recognize other forms of god, called Devas, which often translates as "gods". It is not entirely accurate, but that's the problem with translation. So there is nothing wrong with him expressing both a monotheistic and polytheistic wiew of the world.

The Incredibles (2004)
Corrected entry: Whenever we see one or more of the Incredibles wearing a mask, when they blink their eyelids are black as if the mask covers their eyelids.
Correction: Considering the type of suits Edna Mode can make, is it really such a stretch that she can make masks that cover the eyelids as well? It does help camoflauge.
15th Jul 2005
Volcano (1997)
Corrected entry: At one point we see a camera's view inside a tunnel with some lava approaching it. The lava then hits the camera, and it shows noise on the screen. However this wouldn't happen, a black screen should have shown because the camera would be severely damaged by the lava so it wouldn't be able to operate any longer.
Correction: Not so. The camera is connected to a VCR - it is not a camcorder. When the camera is destroyed the VCR will then send a disrupted signal to the monitor banks, and you get signal noise. What you see on the screen is 100% accurate.

One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish - S2-E11
Corrected entry: At the start of the episode, you see the meatloaf inside a metal tin in the microwave. Heat waves reflect off metal, so the microwave should have been blown up.
Correction: Putting metal in a microwave doesn't make it blow up, it just creates sparks everywhere.

Little Britain (2003)
Corrected entry: When the man's phone goes off while he is playing the piano, there is a monophonic sounding text tone. That phone is a Nokia 6100, and the tone should have had a more polyphonic tone to it.
Correction: Polyphonic phones can still be used to download monophonic tones. My phone enables real sounding ringtones yet I still have my old monophonic tones.

Little Britain (2003)
Corrected entry: In several sketches with Ray, when he plays his flute, the music doesn't match his finger movements.
Correction: This is done deliberatly, it's part of the gag.
3rd Jun 2005
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When the woman in Krusty's studio says that the wolf gets spooked by loud noises, Krusty mentions "loud" as the day's secret word. There are video cameras in sight, indicating that it was being aired on TV. The only problem is, it's not going to be the secret word any longer if it is revealed like that.
Correction: That's the point. Its a spoof of Pee Wee's play house where if a guest said the secret word noises and lights would go off and everybody cheers and yells. It would not ruin anything because it's just a fun play along gag for the kids at home and in the studio to play and get into. I believe the secret word is reveled at the beginning to the audience, just not the guests.

Mr. Bean (1989)
The Return Of Mr. Bean - S1-E2
Corrected entry: When Mr Bean is shopping at Alders, as he goes up the escalator a box has appeared in his basket that wasn't there before.
Correction: At varying points in the sketch Mr Bean is seen having more things in his basket than we see him actually buying. It's quite feasible that the item to which the contributor is referring was put in the basket by Mr Bean before he stepped onto the escalator.
22nd Aug 2005
The Day After Tomorrow (2004)
Corrected entry: When we see the outside of New Delhi, there is a news reporter outside, speaking in English (he is definitely Indian). If he's Indian, why is he speaking in English?
Correction: A major conference of the type depicted in the film would attract interest from all over the world. The reporter is covering the conference on behalf of an unspecified English language news network - you can see that the logo on his microphone has the word NEWS written on it in English.

The Simpsons (1989)
$pringfield (or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling) - S5-E10
Corrected entry: When Mr. Burns is laughing in church it has a purple interior instead of its usual orange.
Correction: Looking at the shot inside the church there is nothing to indicate that this is the local church that most the townspeople go to. Everything about the church is different from the local church including the walls (which are blue not purple) and the glass paned windows. Being also there is no familiar faces in the church its more likely that this is a different church.
23rd Jul 2005
Thunderball (1965)
Corrected entry: During the underwater fight scene, Largo pulls off Bond's diving mask so that he can't see. Bond takes one off a dead bad guy and puts in on. Surely the mask would still be full of water?
Correction: If you seal a mask against your forehead at an angle and blow bubbles up into it, the water is replaced with air. I have done this many times before and if you watch Bond he does it when putting on the mask.
