Corrected entry: When Anna, Kristoff and Olaf get thrown by Marshmallow, Anna does not have her hat on when they are sliding, yet her hat is back on in the next shot.
Corrected entry: When Lucy drives away with Gru at the start of the film after picking up the minions, the cloth that the minions used as a parachute never returns to ground. (00:10:10)
Correction: Last seen the cloth was floating about 30 feet (9 meters) above Lucy's car. All the following shots are close-ups of the car and last in total 6 seconds. There's no reason to expect the cloth to land exactly in such limited area and time.
Corrected entry: The number of arrows that Katniss has in her quiver goes up and down through the games. For example, In the second cornucopia scene when the career tributes from Districts 1 and 2 attack Katniss, Peeta, Wiress, Johanna, Finnick and Beetee, one shot shows three arrows left, but there were plenty used during the rest of the film.
Correction: The group goes back to the cornucopia after the island spins. It is perfectly feasible that Katniss picked up more arrows before heading to the beach.
Corrected entry: Roadblock is holding the rank of Sergeant-Major in the US Army (Non-commissioned officer) and cannot/should not outrank any commissioned officer, nor can he be given a position that has authority over another member outranking him, which in this case Lady Jaye, who is holding the rank of Captain in the US Marine Corps. (00:24:50)
Correction: GI Joe doesn't use traditional military rankings. You start at the bottom in GI Joe and must work your way up. Duke was a captain in the Army but in Rise of Cobra had to not only earn a spot on the team, but then was at the bottom when he did.
Corrected entry: Where did they get the second stasis pod from used for the switch? All but one were destroyed by the drones.
Correction: Any sensible design would include enough pods for all crew members, allowing them all to survive should a major disaster affect the ship. Thus, while the drones targeted the occupied pods, the empty pods allocated to Jack and Victoria would have remained untouched. The first pod he happens upon is labeled 01 and is empty. Through the gun scope, and once back in the tower afterwards, you see Julia's is 06. Later after he puts Julia into one, the one he drags out of the bunker is 01. And at the very end at we see the pod with Malcolm he took up to the Tet is numbered 02. So we can reasonably assume pods 01 and 02 were Jack and Victoria respectively and were not shot up by the drones because there was no one in them.
Corrected entry: When Sandra reaches the Soyuz space capsule she turns the oxygen 'on' by turning the red knobs counter-clockwise. When she turns the oxygen off she turned the knobs clockwise. But when she turns the oxygen back on she turns the knobs clockwise again. (01:01:50 - 01:06:20)
Correction: First, Ryan never turned the oxygen on at any point before she went to turn the oxygen off. Also, I watched this scene and she definitely turned the knobs counter-clockwise when she went to turn the oxygen off. She then turns the knobs clockwise to turn the oxygen back on, which makes sense.
Corrected entry: There were 13 barrels, one for each dwarf. Bilbo had to hang from the side of a barrel because there wasn't one for him to ride in. But after Bombur's barrel broke, he was able to jump into an empty barrel floating along with all the others.
Corrected entry: When Gerry checks out the rear cabin in the Belarus plane, he opens the curtain to see everyone screaming as the virus rages through the cabin. It's a curtain, not a soundproofed steel door - 1) there's no way that the front cabin passengers would not hear the screams just yards behind them, and 2) it's not reasonable to believe nobody would have run down the aisle and into the front cabin as they tried to escape. (01:16:55)
Correction: (1) People in the forward cabin did hear the screams and other noises of the attack; that's exactly why Gerry went back to see what was going on, and why the other passengers near him were looking around and asking what was happening. And (2) the zombie outbreak started in the little crew area between the two cabins, right near where Gerry peeked around the curtain. No one was able to run forward to escape the zombies because the outbreak started at the front of their section, so they would have had to somehow get through or around the zombies to escape into the forward cabin.
For the first point, you are correct about the people's reactions and the fact that they did hear the noise: they did respond appropriately to what they did hear, but in reality, the sounds of screaming should have been much louder and clearer than presented in the movie because, as DavidRTurner puts it, the curtain is not a soundproofed steel door. In airplanes, you can hear what happens through the curtains, and opening them doesn't affect hearing at all really. Therefore, the people would have been much more aware of what was really happening when hearing the noise, and not acting confused as to what the noise could be. As for the second point, you would be correct, Aerinah.
Corrected entry: Nova Prime's sky is full of huge planetary bodies and moons...can you imagine the tidal effects from the gravitational pull of these bodies? The planet would be uninhabitable.
Correction: Although we cannot know how old Nova Prime is as a planet, it can be assumed that it settled into its 'current' habitable state after eons of adjusting to the moons' gravity. When Jaden is running with the Rangers, we can see one very large moon and a smaller one; perhaps the large moon's gravity is enough to make the others insignificant in impacting the planet.
Corrected entry: Enterprise and Vengeance's battle forces the Enterprise to drop out of warp 237,000 KM from earth. If the Vengeance hadn't damaged the Enterprise, when were they planning to drop out of Warp? At light speed, even a few more seconds of travel would have taken Enterprise way past Earth. (01:17:05)
Correction: We have no way of knowing how much longer they were going to spend in warp if the Vengeance hadn't damaged the Enterprise. For all we know the Enterprise was only going to spend another half second in warp. That could have easily gotten them right next to Earth.
Corrected entry: The SEALs in this movie are equipped with M9 pistols. SEALs in real life use Sig Sauer P226s, not Beretta M9s.
Correction: A lot of the Special Operations community have multiple choices of sidearms. It's the team's choice.
Corrected entry: Why did it take over a decade for someone to decide to attack the fissure the Kaiju used to travel between their world and Earth? Even if direct bomb attacks failed, wouldn't someone have at least thought of covering tons of rubble over the fissure to block the Kaiju from coming through? Or since it's the only place that the Kaiju appear from, why not set a perimeter of bombs around the fissure and detonate them every time a Kaiju came through? The ending already demonstrated that the Kaiju could be killed via explosion.
Correction: It did not take a decade. It was stated numerous times that similar attempts had been made and all had failed. It can therefore be logically assumed that similar strategies to those this submission suggests were also attempted but each also failed for whatever reason. We weren't show any of this because it's an action movie, not a historical study of the Kaiju wars.
Corrected entry: The runway on the airbase for the finale of the movie has to be 10 miles or longer, given how long the chase goes on for. The longest runway in the world is much less than 4 miles long.
Correction: It's time compression. This technique is common, especially in action movies, and requires suspension of disbelief. All of the action is occurring at the same time, all of the exterior fights, all of the interior fights, and the focus on different characters is to be happening at the same time. Since there are about four different stories occurring at once, we can safely divide the time involved in the scene by four, making it about three minutes of simultaneous action. People have calculated the runway using straight time would have been over 28 miles long, but if you're going to a Fast and Furious movie for scientific accuracy, you're going to be massively disappointed.
It's not just the same moments from different character's points of view, it's also the same moments from different angles (like a ground view, side view, then a top/aerial view, close-up/character view, etc - all of which are depicting the same sequence of time) which is also a fairly common cinematic technique.
Corrected entry: When the mob guy that is after Diana is on the phone with the woman who tried to kill Diana, she is talking to her boss while getting her tire fixed. The boss guy is in jail and tells her to get rid of Julia, not Diana. Julia was the fake name she gave the real Sandy.
Correction: Pablo says you get "Julian" and get it done. Which is her partner's name. He never says Julia.
Corrected entry: While there is such thing as a "surface-to-air" Javelin missile of British design, the one being deployed in this film in the helicopter scene is the American made anti-tank weapon.
Correction: The FGM-148 Javelin is a United States made man-portable fire-and-forget anti-tank missile. While its primary role is in anti-armor operations it is also a select fire weapon capable of fire-mode selection between 2 modes. The first being the familiar Top-Down attack mode where the warhead can fly up 500 feet and land on the target from above. The second mode, as demonstrated in this movie, is the Direct Attack mode which allows it to engage covered targets, bunkers, buildings and helicopters. The missile has an infrared guided warhead hence the fire and forget moniker and is fully capable of engaging any target of significant heat source under 500 feet.
Corrected entry: When the black hole is created from the collision of the plane and Zod's ship everything is pulled towards it, whether of Earth origin or Kryptonian origin, except Lois who keeps falling away from it. Even Superman had problems escaping it. (01:59:00 - 01:59:55)
Correction: Anything exposed to the Phantom Energy was sucked into the singularity (not black hole), which includes the debris around Zod's ship, the ship itself as well as Superman (who stood right in that energy beam, and also travelled through the phantom zone as a baby). Lois however, was never exposed to the phantom energy, which is why she kept falling and was not affected.
Corrected entry: Both Pripyat and Chernobyl are located within a zone with very tight military security. You pass two rings of fences and control posts when entering the area. John and Jack would not be able just to drive into the area.
Correction: The bad guys, with all their trucks and vans and bulldozers, would have encountered the tight circle of security measures and destroyed them; the bad guys paved the way for John and Jack.
Corrected entry: When Logan and Mariko arrive at the hotel it's daylight, but when they get into the room it's night.
Corrected entry: In the beginning, when Stark and Maya are in the bedroom, Stark is sitting on the right side of the bed. However, once the plant explodes and Stark is tackled by Happy, he is suddenly lying on the left side of the bed.
Correction: Actually he is on the left side the whole time. The camera is on the bed, therefore you see Tony on the right and Maya on the left.
Corrected entry: In a scene where the principles are standing in front of a car, the license plate is yellow with a white sticker in the upper right corner that is for the year. However license plates back then did not have stickers for the expiration year. Those plates had the year as part of the plate itself. those plate were replaced each year. There was no such thing as an expiration sticker as we have now. And this mistake is repeated several times throughout the movie.
Correction: Those aren't stickers. The year section was silver in 1949.
Correction: Just re watched the scene and she has her hat on.
