Corrected entry: In the scene of the assassination attempt the Joker, without his makeup, is disguised as one of the police officers who will give the gun salute. Even if we can suspend our disbelief that nobody recognized him specifically as being the Joker (even though he does have the same facial scar), how on earth could he have gotten himself chosen as one of the cops who would give the salute and therefore hold a loaded gun literally next to a high-ranking city official? I'd think that the police force would double-check and then triple-check who got selected to hold a gun in that type of situation. How did he get past that and fool everyone?

Corrected entry: In the scene where Alfred is burning documents in the 'batcave' furnace, it starts with furnace open where you can see him shoveling papers into a burning pile. The next shot shows him closing the door to the furnace, except there is no visible flame in the window. In the next shots the flames are visible again through the window.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Batman is holding the Joker off the edge of a building and the Joker is obviously upside down, the camera angle is showing an very poor upright version of him. It's very obvious that he has a fan blowing underneath him and he is swaying back and forth.
Correction: His cheeks, lips, each individual hair on his head, and his coat all must have strings pulling them up too, then, because all those things appear as they would if Heath Ledger were actually upside down. And Batman isn't holding him either. He's hanging from Batman's zip line.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Jim Gordon caught the Joker (after the car chase), we can see Gordon wearing "SWAT" glasses, but a few seconds later, he speaks with someone else and now wearing standard glasses.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Joker sets fire to his half of the money with Lau sitting on top, where did the money come from? Lau took the mobs' money out of Dent's jurisdiction. Joker had time to kidnap Lau, discover the location of the money, divide it in half and stack it to stage Lau's demise?

Corrected entry: In the shot of the construction building where the Joker is watching the boats in the harbor, Bruce uses the cellular waves as a sonar and you can see the S.W.A.T. designs on the back of the officers' vests. This is impossible due to the fact that the S.W.A.T. lettering is flat and would not show up as another color. Instead, almost all surfaces would show up as one color.

Correction: He and his thugs abducted and detained the men who were selected and took their place. He didn't show up at the police station, sans makeup, and apply for a position in the 21-gun salute then, after being legitimately selected, somehow convince the other six officers to fire on the mayor with him.
