Gamer (2009)
Other mistake: Assuming we buy that Kable can run the truck on Vodka with no modifications, the bottle he drank from wasn't particularly big, and the truck wouldn't have run as long as it did on the paltry amount he was able to get into the tank. By virtue of the truck moving around so violently would mean the Vodka would be sloshed around the tank and the fuel pump would be incapable of extracting it. Fuel tanks typically need a minimum amount of fuel just to ensure the fuel pump has something to run on, and that bottle isn't going to achieve that, no matter what fictional future technology you can dream up in lieu of what's onscreen.

Terminator Salvation (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Marcus is driving the big tow truck down the highway, he smashes into the back of a red VW Jetta with custom chrome wheels that is parked on the right side of the road. A few shots later, the same car is shown again, now on the left side of the road, and is hit again. That's fair enough, as the truck seemed to reverse direction when the first bike crashed into the bus. But seconds after the second hit, this car is again on the RIGHT side of the road, and is struck a third time (this is actually the first hit, shown now from a different angle). (00:41:05)

Brink! (1998)
Continuity mistake: When the girl in the orange slides over the stones and then falls to the ground tumbling over and over, you can see that her arms are completely protected by black arm protectors, yet when she comes to a complete stop, they are now missing.

Beyond the Poseidon Adventure (1979)
Continuity mistake: When the purser's safe falls through the ceiling, we get to see the safe come to a rest, and we can see the door to the safe is still perfectly in position and still closed. The next shot looking down on the safe now shows the safe with the door now fully opened.

Beyond the Poseidon Adventure (1979)
Revealing mistake: When the purser's safe falls through the ceiling, the ceiling metal is far too thin. Bearing in mind also, that the on the other side of the ceiling metal is supposed to be the floor of the next deck up, and that too is a thin flimsy metal, that doesn't even appear that it could support any kind of weight.

Monsters vs Aliens (2009)
Trivia: The musical cue playing and the shot of the missiles firing away from the camera toward the robot are exactly the same as a scene and music in Independence Day.

Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)
Continuity mistake: As Trevor and Hannah and the boy are traveling up the volcano on the cushion of steam, Trevor's arm constantly changes position instantly with different shots. Sometimes his arm is across Hannah's chest, then it's under her head, and back across her chest.

The Island (2005)
Other mistake: When Lincoln and Jordan first enter the city, just before Jordan sees a poster of herself, in the background you can see two trains high in the air, with a skyscraper behind them. If you look carefully at the shadows cast by the two trains, one of them is completely wrong. The train that goes from left to right has its shadow trailing on its left side, and the train going from right to left has its shadow trailing on its right side. Irrespective of which direction the two trains are travelling, both their shadows should be trailing from the same side, as there is only one light source, i.e. the sun.

Cars (2006)
Continuity mistake: Before Lightning falls off the end of Mack's trailer, you can see Snot Rod and one of the other cars running alongside the trailer. But when the camera moves to show Lightning coming off the trailer, you can see alongside the trailer in the background, and the cars are now missing. Camera switches back to the front of Mack, and the cars are back alongside again.

Monsters vs Aliens (2009)
Continuity mistake: It's shown in many scenes that the robot Gallaxar sends isn't particularly quick moving when it walks. But when it's chasing Ginormica around the city, even though Ginormica is sprinting away, it can catch her far more quickly than its speed would allow. It doesn't suddenly speed up - in the shots when the camera focuses on the robot again, you can still see it moving slowly.

Wall-E (2008)
Continuity mistake: When the ship bursts through the field of satellites, you can see that none of them attached to the ship or WALL-E, but in the next shot, there are now 5 or 6 satellites attached to WALL-E and the ship. (00:32:10)

The Incredibles (2004)
Continuity mistake: When Mr. Incredible opens the window of the RV when the family are flying to the city to save it, you can see lots of paperwork flying about the cabin and exiting the now-open window. However, when the camera does the outside shot of the RV in flight, there's no paper.
