Man of the House (2005)

Corrected entry: After the girls have rescued Emma and they are on the ground trying to get her to jump into their arms, she says that they are crazy. You can hear one of the girls say "It's ok, I'm a math major!" but, none of them actually mouths the words. It sounds like a voice-over.

Kimberly Fox

Correction: None of the cheerleaders say this because it isn't coming from them. It's Emma who says "Are you crazy? I'm a math major!" None of the cheerleaders is a math major. It isn't meant to be said by any of the cheerleaders, it is coming from Emma off-screen.

The Abyss (1989)

Corrected entry: The whole scene with the rat and the breathing fluid could never have happened because rats can't vomit, so the poor thing would have died.

Kimberly Fox

Correction: Vomiting is the forceful ejection of stomach contents. It has nothing to do with ejecting substances from the lungs. That would be coughing, which rats *can* do.

JC Fernandez

Furthermore, that scene was NOT simulated. That was an actual rat breathing the actual oxygenated fluorocarbon fluid. It wasn't sci-fi; the concept exists, even if it hasn't seen much wide-scale testing on humans.

Days of Thunder (1990)

Corrected entry: Cole was a rookie. All rookies have a large, yellow stripe running the length of the bumpers. Where was his?

Kimberly Fox

Correction: If a rookie has racd on the track before, he may not be required to have the yellow stripe. Conversely, a non-rookie, who hasn't raced at the track before may have the stripe. Finally the movie was made in 1990, and Nascar may not have required a stripe at that time.

Rudy (1993)

Corrected entry: In the final game against GA Tech, Notre Dame is wearing away jerseys and GA Tech is wearing home jerseys. How can that be if Notre Dame was at home?

Kimberly Fox

Correction: Notre Dame is wearing the dark or home jerseys during the whole last game. GA Tech is wearing white jerseys (normally white is away). Nothing is wrong.

Zwn Annwn

Correction: The home team gets to choose jersey color. While many teams in the South choose white early in the season due to heat, most home teams choose dark, or more colorful, home jerseys if heat is not a factor.

Clerks (1994)

Corrected entry: When going to the wake, Randall mentions that it is a Saturday, yet in the morning Veronica talks about having classes at Mammoth and tells the cigarette hurlers to "Get out of here, go commute."

Kimberly Fox

Correction: Some colleges do have classes on Saturdays.

Corrected entry: In the last game against the varsity team, Fulton Reed is the only Duck player with his first name on the back of his jersey.

Kimberly Fox

Correction: This mistake has already been corrected, since it is very possible, and does happen in places like the MLB, for someone to have their first name instead of their last.
