Candy Cane Lane (2023)

Revealing mistake: Nick is supposed to play the saxophone, and his cheeks are puffed full of air, but they do not move at all. Playing the saxophone requires blowing into the mouthpiece, which moves the player's cheeks, mouth, and lips. (00:57:00 - 01:06:55)

Revealing mistake: The stairs are a prop. About a dozen steep steps - just to the landing - are almost as high as the front door. (00:55:48)

Ebbie (1995)

Revealing mistake: The width of the telephone pole behind Ebbie is about two-thirds the span of her shoulders but is just as wide when the background is blurred. (00:22:10 - 00:23:18)

The Invisible Man (2020)

Revealing mistake: The "rain" falls in straight vertical lines, but stops hitting the parking lot pavement about 5' behind Cecilia. Within a small area, rain is much heavier in some spots than others and does not appear to be hitting various objects or people (although clothes are wet). It is not noticeably raining while James walks into his house, but rain pours right outside the front door when a camera picks up a front view of James at the now-open front door. (01:31:00 - 01:37:00)

Another Happy Day (2011)

Revealing mistake: While Lynn is driving, the scenery outside the driver's side window goes white a few times and, other times, with intermittent specks of green tree leaves/shrubs. The white-outs are too low to be representing the sky. For a period of time, the lower third or so of her side window is a horizontal white bar. (00:02:20 - 00:03:38)

Revealing mistake: Vivian talks on the phone as she walks towards the camera. A couple walks behind her in the opposite direction. A bicyclist emerges from the left-center side of the screen and heads straight across the path, perpendicularly towards the couple. The bicyclist "disappears" behind Vivian, just before he reaches (crashes into) the couple, and the camera cuts to Carol. Seconds later, Vivian still walks towards the screen, and a different person walks where the couple was. (00:14:38)

Just Jake (2023)

Revealing mistake: There is a glimpse of a bench on the porch landing, roughly parallel to the steps where Jake is sitting with his back at about a 45° angle to the railing. Front views of Jake show the bench oddly angled upward as though it ascends like the steps. (00:38:10 - 00:39:12)

The Burial (2023)

Revealing mistake: The airplane windows on both sides of the aisle are solid white ovals, with no variations to indicate the airplane is moving in the sky. (00:40:30)

Awareness (2023)

Revealing mistake: Ian stands on the rooftop, with an elevated highway to the right of the screen, some distance from the building. The right-side rear view of Ian reveals the elevated highway much closer, practically against the side of the building. The CGI elevated highway's height compared to the rooftop also varies, being lower when Ian sits, and the support posts are not even flat against the underside of the elevated highway. (00:41:54 - 00:42:20)

Rage (2023)

Revealing mistake: Alberto forces minor Alan to smoke a cigarette. Alan appears to be puffing on the cigarette, but no smoke comes out of his mouth when he "exhales". At one point, Alan is inhaling and the red tip of the cigarette (prop) blows outward. (00:36:45)

Bite (2022)

Revealing mistake: When Yaz and Nina are fleeing the men, the "car" has no visible structure (window frame/body) on the passenger side where Nina is sitting - it is all open "window". (00:38:00)

Bite (2022)

Revealing mistake: The "rain" moves with Nina, being heavier (or present) on which side of the screen she is on. Then there is no rain on the street when Nina is off-screen, but it is pouring behind her when she gets inside the building. (00:14:35)

Blight (2022)

Revealing mistake: Luke points a flashlight along the side of the staircase, but no shadows are produced on the wall from the vertical posts. Luke points the flashlight in front of himself and produces his shadow on the wall behind (and the shadow doesn't look like the way he is holding the flashlight). After Luke goes through the entryway aiming his flashlight ahead, a circle of light is behind him. The power is out, so the flashlight is the only light source - except that used for filming in the dark. (01:03:00 - 01:05:25)

Revealing mistake: The "horse" in the stall on the left has to be fake. With the exception of a barely visible half-blink, it does not move the slightest when the girl (while handling the reins) walks around its head, and a couple of girls are touching (pretending to be removing) the saddle. (00:29:25)

Black Warrant (2022)

Revealing mistake: Initially, there is a little movement that can be seen in the passenger's side mirror on Juan's car, but it is subsequently reduced to still-frame. Also, the driver's side mirror is tilted upward, showing movement, but not in a typical position to enable viewing of vehicles behind the driver. (00:00:55)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: The dog may be trained to go down the hallway, looking for a treat, but not to encounter Henry and "act" like he is happy to see a family member who just returned from vacation. Instead of being excited to see Henry, the dog's body language is indicative of stress or discomfort - tail pointed down with no wagging, slight cowering posture, weight shifted backward, and he even starts to back away from Henry. When lying next to Henry, the dog tries to crawl over the side of the bed. (01:17:45 - 01:31:00)

The Moment After (1999)

Revealing mistake: A woman drives along a straight street with a row of houses parallel to the driver's side of the car. She turns her steering wheel to the right to give the impression she is making a right turn, but the houses along the street stay parallel to her car. There is not enough curve in the street to require turning the steering wheel that much. (00:07:10)

The Moment After (1999)

Revealing mistake: In addition to the chain and lock not being in a position to actually secure the entrance to the "Metro Christian Shelter", the board covering the entrance does not appear to be securely attached to the building on the right side. Furthermore, when the men move the board over, it is a rather thin piece of plywood/board that can easily be kicked in. (00:17:17)

Gigi & Nate (2022)

Revealing mistake: Driving home from meeting Gigi, there is an image on the windshield of a blue handicapped parking permit/placard that is supposed to be hung on the rearview mirror, but there is no placard hanging - the permit's image is superimposed on the windshield. The image even briefly appears and reappears. (00:34:05)
