Other mistake: When D-Day discovers that the intestinators are magnetic, he puts the spare intestinator on himself to demonstrate. There are no troubles at all. When Stiggs volunteers to go first and have his intestinator removed from his body, not only does D-Day struggle to find where it is located, but you can also see where the intestinator moves inside his body where it didn't with D-Day's body.

D2: The Mighty Ducks (1994)
Question: Although I enjoy the game of ice hockey, I still haven't fully understood the tactics teams have. Having said that, what is the tactics of putting 2 heavy enforcers in Fulton Reed and Dean Portman on the same line? Wouldn't it be better if they were on separate lines throughout the games, having at least one heavy hitting enforcer on the ice longer than 2 on the same line that I've noticed in the movies?
Answer: There may be a number of reasons, but the most likely is that, if players work really well together, it makes sense to have them on the same line, regardless if they are both enforcers or not. To give an example, the 1990s Detroit Red Wings had the "Grind Line", which consisted of three forwards who were all known for their aggressive, physical style. The two wingers in particular were team enforcers. They meshed so well as a unit it wouldn't have been as effective to split them onto different lines, just to provide an enforcer to each. The combination of all three on one line worked very well, and other teams copied the format, though of course it was not unique to this team (see, for example, the Philadelphia Flyers' Legion of Doom).

Plot hole: At the gas station exploding scene, we see van Damme and the reporter getting in the car and drive off. Just after van Damme and the reporter drive off, we see Lundren get up from the rear seats to try to strangle van Damme. Why would Lundren be there when firstly, they had no idea van Damme took the chip out of his leg, and secondly, after realising they had been set up, they had n idea where van Damme or the reporter would be at that stage.

Suggested correction: He saw the vehicle they drove away from the motel in earlier. Once the building blew up and they knew it was a setup, waiting in their vehicle is a completely logical move. Them not noticing a 6'5 240lb man in the back is a lot more bizarre.

Other mistake: When Freddy puts his claws through Grady, not only do thy go through him, they manage to go well past the door. There is no way Freddy's claws are that long. (00:57:20)

The Terminator (1984)
Question: Towards the end of the movie when Kyle Reese dies, what will happen to him, considering he's from the future and there is no way he could be identified?
Answer: He would likely be considered as a "John Doe," with some identifying number, then buried in a modern-day equivalent of a "Potter's Field," where unknown persons are buried. Sarah Conner could have supplied Kyle's name, though this could not be verified and he'd still be considered as an unknown.
Answer: Also, in the sequel when the T-1000 looks up John Connor's info on the police car's computer, John's father is listed as "unknown', so any info Sarah had given the police was apparently disregarded.
Answer: He'd be treated like any other John Doe corpse.

Kiss the Girls (1997)
Question: The villain is driving off with Morgan Freeman running right behind him with a gun in his hand. Why didn't Freeman try and shoot the tyres? (01:10:00)
Answer: Shooting out of the tires on a fleeing vehicle is not a viable, realistic strategy. It is a movie cliche akin to shooting out a padlock or saving a hanging man by shooting the rope. It is not something people do in real life and it is therefore realistic that Morgan Freeman wouldn't attempt to do so in this film.

28 Days Later (2002)
Other mistake: When Jim, Selena, Frank and his daughter enter the supermarket, you can notice all the fresh produce (apples, carrots etc) looking fresh. This virus has been going on for a few days now, and supermarkets get their fresh produce out immediately. After 10 days or so, give or take, the fresh produce shouldn't be looking this fresh.

Other mistake: Early in the episode, Frank turns on the heater and the family discover a bottle top in one of the vents Ray has thrown from a party he held 20 years ago. This couldn't have been the 1st time the heater had been used in that amount of time. (00:03:00)

Other mistake: When the monk returns the water bottle to Siro and Taja, not long after talking to them (not realising the water bottle belongs to Kung Lao), how did Siro and Taja get so far ahead of the monk in that short amount of time? (00:05:35 - 00:06:35)

Freddy Vs. Jason (2003)
Question: When Will convinces Mark to hold off leaving town so he can go save Lori, Mark says "OK, but if you're not here by morning, I'm outta here." Just wondering how Mark was going to leave town (if he survived the night and Will didn't make it back) since Will had his vehicle?
Answer: He could choose to either hitchhike or get someone to take him to the next town.
Answer: Mark could have hiked on out of town. Or he could have bicycled. Or got a bus. Or a cab.
Answer: The town has said no-one comes in, and no-one leaves (which how do some of the character get to crystal lake which is in the movie mistakes as a plot hole) how could he leave?
