Conan the Barbarian mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: After Conan retrieves his father's now broken sword, it cuts to Doom's temple. In some versions the first long shot is a side view of the temple, with Doom standing alone on the balcony in front of the hanging tapestry. Then, in the next long shot facing the front of the temple, there's a crew member near Doom who is dressed in black, hunched over, standing beside the tapestry, and this person is wildly gesturing to come on up, just as a high priest walks up the long stairway (before his close-up).

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: During the jungle chase, Marion jumps out of the truck, leaving Dovchenko driverless.

Later, in the chamber with the crystal skeletons, Mac admits to lying about the CIA, then as Spalko climbs the chamber stairs, it looks like her lav mic is a bit visible between two upper buttons.
