Revealing mistake: When McCreedy flashes back to when he first saw the Hobgoblins, the magazine he is reading in the flashback obviously has no pages. You can tell when he closes it and sits it down that that the inside covers are blank too.

Saw III (2006)
Revealing mistake: After Jeff shoots Amanda she falls to the ground. You can tell it is a dummy, just watch her arms and head.
Suggested correction: First of all, she doesn't fall to the ground. She stumbles after being shot and then slowly collapses to a seated position. There is also no dummy being used, as Shawnee Smith's face is visible in every shot of her until she dies.

Pi (1998)
Revealing mistake: When Max meets Lenny in the coffee shop, there is a McDonald's logo on the cream he opens. In some shots it's visible and others it's covered by white tape.

Titanic (1997)
Revealing mistake: As the Titanic is leaving you can see the news guy holding a hand cranked camera. He's cranking it left-handed, but all hand-cranked cameras are right handed. Either a construction mistake or revealing that the shot was flipped - a mistake either way. (00:25:50)

Surf Ninjas (1993)
Revealing mistake: When they are surfing using the boards they cut from the trees, you can see the ankle cuffs on the boards, clipped on to the actors. They didn't cut the ankle cuffs as seen earlier and when they are running to the sea they don't have cuffs either.

Revealing mistake: In "Wonderful, Wonderful Day" there are live birds flying on the set, but they were confused by the backdrop and several crash into it. (The director acknowledges this in a documentary.)
25th Jul 2009
Revolutionary Road (2008)
Revealing mistake: The magazines in the Wheelers' living room, and Frank's Berlitz guidebook, are dog-eared and browned. They're probably from 1955, but they look like they're 50 or 60 years old.
