The Goonies (1985)
Other mistake: When Mikey is telling the story of One-Eyed Willy, something stuck to the lens of the camera is visible on his head. This is visible on the television airings but may or may not have been fixed for home media.
12th Apr 2021
Dirty Harry (1971)
Other mistake: Due to the way the opening titles were created, likely with an optical printer on plastic or glass, dust or other particles are very visible when they fade into the shot.
5th Jan 2021
Lethal Weapon 3 (1992)
Other mistake: Murtaugh is in the bathtub in the end and his kids rush in to celebrate his retirement. He's supposedly naked. Later, he pulls his wife in with him and you can tell he is wearing black underwear.
26th Nov 2020
The Simpsons (1989)

5th Oct 2018
Radio Flyer (1992)
Other mistake: The newspaper at the gas station is dated 1962. The movie is set in 1969. The problem with this is that in the beginning, the narrator mentions that the Fisher incident happened 10 years before they moved to Novato. It has only been 7.
23rd Sep 2018
Highway to Heaven (1984)
Other mistake: When the bratty kid walks out of the garage to chastise the girl about her bike watch the lighting around her. As she walks out of the garage it's as if someone is dimming the light around her. It abruptly gets darker the further forward she walks.
11th Aug 2018
Fargo (2014)
Other mistake: In the scene in 1987 which takes place where the movie did, the location of the case of money is different than it was in the film. In the film there were no power lines and it was on the opposite side of the road. The sun angle can be used as a reference. The film and this part of the episode were supposed to take place in the same spot.

9th Apr 2018
Braveheart (1995)
Other mistake: Near the end of the battle of Sterling after Wallace nearly hits one of his allies on the horse, look on the right side of the shot. An English man wearing metal armor is fighting some Scots. He doesn't make much effort, barely swinging his sword. The Scots fighting him also don't put up much of a challenge either.
Suggested correction: Because they're exhausted.
27th Feb 2018
Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002)
Other mistake: Right as Austin performs "Daddy Wasn't There", the camera moves in on the band and people move out of its way. One of the extras on the left side quickly looks right at the camera and realises she needs to move.
2nd Nov 2017
Gremlins (1984)
Other mistake: One of the evil Gremlins is messing with a stoplight by shorting out wires. The result is a very bright spark. Bright light is supposed to have a negative effect on the Gremlins - when we see them hit by the headlight beams in the bar they scream.
