Corrected entry: When Blade is rescuing Karen from the hospital, the police mistakenly believe he is kidnapping her and proceed to open fire on him while he is carrying her, and then again when he jumps to the rooftop across the street. Police officers would not fire freely at a suspect when his supposed hostage is in such close proximity due to the obvious risk of accidentally shooting the hostage.

Blade (1998)
Correction: And Whistler even mentions to Karen that the vampires "own the police."

Blade (1998)
Corrected entry: When Blade and Karen are in the room of manuscripts, Quinn comes in with a load of guys. When one of the guys loses a hand by holding Blade's sword, there's blood all over the handle of the sword, yet, the next time we see the sword, there's no blood at all. (00:50:45 - 00:52:30)
Correction: It turned to ash - whenever a vampire gets a limb cut off or killed they disintegrate into ash. Same thing happens with their blood.

Blade (1998)
Corrected entry: Near the end of the movie when all the head Vampires are lined in a circle, one of the Vampires is talking to Arly Jover's vampire character. She gets angry at him and stabs him through the stomach with Blade's sword, then she kicks him into the wall where he turns into ashes upon impact. Now if he is one of the head vampires, wouldn't killing him effect the "La-Magra" awakening?
Correction: If you look closely there's 13 pure-bloods - they obviously brought a spare from the same house, in case something happened.
Correction: He wasn't one of the important ones.

Blade (1998)
Corrected entry: If Whistler said that Blade and he were not trying to take this war to the streets, how come Blade takes out a gun on the streets and starts shooting at the fake policeman working for Frost?
Correction: Blade doesn't seem to really care about the 'sugar coated world' and is more focused on killing vampires and their human servants. Frost is a particular obsession for both Whistler and Blade so its possible that Blade's only objective is finding and killing Frost, regardless of how he does it.
Correction: He didn't shoot his gun out in the streets, he just pulled it out and threatened the officer. He only puts it down after he loses visual of him when he runs away.

Blade (1998)
Corrected entry: At the end of the first fight scene when Blade has nailed Quinn to the wall, why doesn't he disintegrate having been nailed to the wall with the silver stakes as other vampires had before?
Correction: Blade himself expresses surprise at having difficulty killing Quinn, and says that silver's not worked before, hence trying fire this time. He would have stayed around to check the job was finished but the police showed up.
Correction: The reason he didn't disintegrate was because both times the silver stakes got him in the shoulders, Blade even says later to Karen "aim for the head or the heart"

Halloween 4 (1988)
Plot hole: At the end of Halloween 2 Michael is completely engulfed in fire for several minutes. Even if somehow he was to survive he would be covered in scars. When we see him at the beginning of part 4 he has a few small scars on his arms. Same with Loomis, he has a few small scars on his arms and one on his cheek despite being in a gigantic explosion and fire. Obviously this was done so they could bring the 2 characters back but it still makes no logical sense.

Suggested correction: Michael has the supernatural ability to heal as shown when he's shot in the eyes at the end of Halloween 2 because in this one he can see, as for Loomis it's possible he was blown into another room or into an area into the room where the flames couldn't reach him, no mistake.
Michael does have some scars though. If the excuse that he heals is the reason he doesn't have more than all of them would be healed after 10 years. Also Loomis was in the same room with Michael, even if Loomis was blown into another room he would have been engulfed in flames and would have been either dead from the shock wave or still burned worse than he is in part 4.
Suggested correction: This one's tough. On the one hand, this is intentional and if it were released today I'd chalk it up to being a (very) soft continuity reboot and that in this film the explosion was simply not as severe as it was in Halloween II. On the other hand, in the context of its release era, and just by watching you can sort of tell they were hoping viewers either had a fuzzy memory of Halloween II or were willing to just go with it. I think I'll err on the side of the former, but it's interesting.
The original script contained an opening scene which showed how Dr Loomis was blown out of the hospital. They had no enough money, so that scene was never shot.

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995)
Corrected entry: Michael kills Mrs Strode outside, in the backyard, splattering blood everywhere. 6 seconds later, Kara comes home from school. Michael cleans up the blood, puts the sheets in the washer, and puts Mrs Strode in the attic in the one minute 5 seconds that it takes Kara to walk to the back yard and look around. (00:38:45 - 00:39:50)
Correction: There's no way of telling how much time elapsed from when Michael killed Mrs. Strode to Kara arriving home perhaps it was a leap forward in time like probably around three to five minutes giving Michael plenty if time to hide Mrs Stode's body in the attic and put the bloody sheet in the washer.

Halloween 4 (1988)
Corrected entry: Michael kills the mechanic for his overalls with a metal pole through the chest, but there is no blood or hole in the overalls when Michael is wearing them.
Correction: There was a scene filmed but cut, where Michael stabs the mechanic through the throat with the metal pole but since we don't see him stabbing the mechanic through the throat you'll just have to assume Michael did stab him there when Dr. Loomis discovers his body he's wrapped up in chains one of them wrapping around his entire neck.

A Bug's Life (1998)
Corrected entry: Near the end when Hopper is choking Flick near the bird's nest, at first it looks like they're inside the nest, but when the bird bends down to reveal itself and Hopper turns around, both are suddenly outside the nest.
Correction: They were never actually inside the nest, they were standing next to it when the bird reveals itself - it was simply looking down at them, it didn't bend down to see them.

Correction: Blade mentions later to Karen that the vampires own "half of downtown" and we also see that at least one cop is a familiar. So it's not unlikely that the cops in the hospital are also familiars and know who Blade is, and therefore have little regard for any "hostage" of his.
