What is your favorite movie mistake?

[knightdriver2001]

A couple I can think of since I watched it the other day is in Batman
returns.

When Batman confront Selena at the end, before he tears his mask off, he
has eye makeup, as he tears it off, the eye make up is gone.

Also when the Penguin falls and dies, the birds are dragging him down to
the water. As he floats in, the little cart he was rolling is seen still rolling
away as he floats off it.

I'm sure there is more..............

War of the worlds, Tom Cruise playing a 'poor' guy, but drives a classic 1965 (Mustang)Shelby GT-350 Hertz, that even if it's a replica would easily pay both his children through college...

I think this is kind of the point of his character- instead of doing the responsible thing of having a good home for his wife and children, he sunk all his money into that car. Probably one of the reasons he is divorced in the film. Shows he is irresponsible and selfish.

My take on it at least.

[HAL9000]

Another Blade Runner one.
When Deckard is listening to the recording of Leon's Voight-Kampf interrogation, the delivery of the line "let me tell you about my mother" is completely different to the one at the start of the film.

That's deliberate. Something about memory changing things. Bud Alper
has mentioned it.

Dr. Strangelove - Towards the end of the film, when Strangelove is fighting with his renegade right hand the Russian Ambassador clearly laughs at peter sellers performance and then quickly regains his composure.

Braveheart - towards the end of one of the big battles, and the fighting is winding down, you see two extra's in the near background (supposedly engagled in mortal combat) believing it was a rehearsal or that the scene was over, stop fighting and rest their weapons on the ground and look like they are just talking / laughing.

First Knight - CGI mistake When Lancelot steps back after killing Maligant, he swings his sword below his belt line feigning weight, but obviously the entire blade is missing - my wife couldn't believe i kept rewinding this scene to make sure she was seeing this.

In Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Staff of Ra is said to be 72 inches less 12 inches tall (6 Kadam (sp?) in height less 1 Kadam).


When Indy places the Staff into the correct slot in the Map Room it certainly isn't 60 inches in height... Unless Harrison Ford is really three and a half feet tall. :lol

"Watch out for snakes!" -- Eegah. (As riffed by MST3K)

Let's re-arrange his family while he's away.

How about in Blade Runner when ever you see a car lift off, you see the cables.

Or how about in the chase scene near the end where you see the shadow of the camera men as Deckard runs through the condemned building.

My Favourite movie mistake happens in the James Bond movie's.

If you watch them back to back you can clearly see that every 5 or so movies James Bond's face changes .......... seriously its true you can see it clear as day.

 

[Supa troop]

heres another

if Andy Dufrense escaped from his Shawshank prison cell down a tight tunnel then how did he put his poster back on the wall ???

They actually played on this a couple of times in the films-

In "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" Bond says "This never happened to the other fellow."

And in the trailer for "Goldeneye" Pierce Brosnan walks up to the camera and says, "You were expecting someone else?"

Both plays on the role changing actors ever so often. I think there may have been a couple other onscreen jokes like these.

(Not sure what you call this sort of occurance in films- kind of like Breaking the Fourth Wall so to speak. OHMSS is a double meaning joke, but the Goldeneye trailer is the 4th wall.)

In the movie. Star Trek: First Contact the captain is walking the decks talking about the ship being 24 decks. This is correct. In the later movie Star Trek: Nemesis (with the same ship) during the battle scene they are boarded and send the security team to deck 29 ......?

 

[SSgt Burton]

This reminds of another one about the Enterprise's decks-

Star Trek V (I know... I know... "the entire film was a mistake") anyway... :lol

Kirk, Spock and McCoy are in the turboshaft and need to escape qucikly with Spock's rocket boots. When Kirk orders Spock to fire the boosters (and you read the deck numbers in the background) they quickly pass by decks-

35, 36, 52, 64, more 60s, 52, 77, 78 and... 78. :lol

He put it up before he escaped silly ....:lol

I don't remember the movie so clearly but he could have just had it attached on the top and let gravity do the rest.

Ha not possible as the warden punches a big hole right in the middle of it, surely if the poster was not taught enough it would have just crumpled when he hit it ..... :thumbsup

Look here : YouTube - ‪The Shawshank Redemption- The tunnel‬‏
He did not punch a big hole into it, he threw a rock or something into it and made a small hole then he used his finger and arm to thrust thru the poster. It could have worked the way i wrote it.

oh yeah your right :wacko but surely the stone would have bounced of as the poster would not have been taught enough ............:cry :thumbsup

Speaking of Raiders, there's the truck that "exploded" and flipped over, but you can clearly see the telephone pole sized piling they used to ram the ground and flip it sticking from the bottom.

If was a modern poster maybe.. This movie was set in 1947 and im just guessing it was made from pretty standard paper.

BTTF Doc uses a remote control on a manual transmission but never see him shift on the remote. He also sends Einie 1 min ahead, I counted 1:21 seconds til he gets there
