Corrected entry: When Abe shows Broom what happened in the library you see Kroenan crawl down the wall and stand up. In the next shot you see him already halfway over to the glass cabinet but he didn't even start to walk yet when we last saw him.

Corrected entry: When Hellboy and the agents go back to look for eggs in the subway, they enter through a working subway tunnel. Later, when HB is searching for Kronen and encounters Sammael, they fall into a hole, fighting as they drop hundreds of feet. But they crash through the ceiling of a subway station. Why is there another subway system hundreds of feet below the one they came in through?
Correction: In subway systems, different lines run on different levels, to allow the tunnels to cross each other without interference.

Hellboy (2004)
Corrected entry: When Hellboy hits Myer with the rock, he is on a rooftop across the street and pretty high up, but they are more or less facing each other. When the shot cuts to Myer getting hit, if you watch slowly, the rock appears to come from behind, hitting him in the back of the head or at least the side. Myer puts his hand up to his forehead, where you would expect him to be hit, considering the direction Hellboy is throwing from. But then Myer turns around and yells, "hey, who threw that?" behind him, where it appeared the rock came from in slo-mo.
Correction: They're not even close to facing each other - Hellboy is looking at them almost side-on. The rock comes from the correct direction, hitting Myers on the right-hand side of his forehead, exactly where he puts his hand to. He then stands and looks left and right first, and only turns round to look behind him once he's failed to spot the thrower in the more plausible directions.

Hellboy (2004)
Corrected entry: According to Agent Manning Hellboy is supposed to be about 2.13 metres tall. But, compared to the other people in the movie, Hellboy does not appear to be remarkably tall - some of the other characters are even taller than him.
Correction: In the museum Manning says that Hellboy is six foot five, which is about 1.9 metres, not 2.13. This is tall, but not remarkably so, so it's not unreasonable that some of the other characters could be taller than him.

Hellboy (2004)
Corrected entry: Why did Myers, upon walking into the BPRD, stop and stand on the symbol in the centre of the room? I know this is essential as the symbol is the hidden lift, but surely anyone would have walked on to the desk? He didn't know about the lift, and the man didn't tell him to stop. (00:18:55)
Correction: Myers has obviously been given some pretty unusual instructions - go to this rather mysterious building, press a particular button on the keypad, identify himself and so on. It's reasonable to assume that stopping on the symbol and identifying himself to the guard on the desk when he enters would be part of those instructions.

Correction: Perfectly standard cinematic technique of time compression. We don't need to physically see Kroenen walk the whole distance, it just wastes time.
