The following glaring mistake is obvious to anyone who lives in Chicago. The movie When Harry Met Sally begins at the University of Chicago, located in Hyde Park, which is on the south side of Chicago. They are heading to NYC. As their car leaves the city, there is a wide shot of them travelling south on Lake Shore Drive, heading into the city, which makes no geographical sense. What makes this even sillier is if they had just set the opening scene at Northwestern University in Evanston, then the LSD scene would make perfect sense.
Oh wait, I’ve got one. I can’t give a specific reference because it seems to happen in EVERY SINGLE MOVIE AND TV SHOW, when someone is driving they act like children pretending to drive, turning the wheel in a way that woulds put them in the the wrong lane or on the curb. For god sake, 99% of these people must know how to drive. Why do they still do this?
In Strange Days, there’s a shot of the limo driving down an alley with bullet holes in the trunk, a few seconds later, they cut to a shot of a gunman in the car pursuing the limo firing his machine gun and the bullets hitting an undamaged trunk!
In Terminator 2, the semi that T-1000 uses to try to run over John Connor gets badly damaged when it first lands in the storm canal, but then it’s fine a few frames later.
I don’t see the problem here. It’s been a while since I’ve seen ST VI, but the way I remember it was that everyone except Sulu was on Enterprise, and that Enterprise was the ship attempting to track the rogue Klingon Bird of Prey. It was Spock and McCoy who modified a torpedo to do the tracking.
I turned the movie off when I first saw the Venice scene. Ever been to Venice? Theres no way the Nautilus could fit in the canals, let alone be submerged. Also, there aren’t any “roads” in Venice, since there are no automobiles there even NOW. Driving through Venice like that would be impossible since its practically made off alleyway built for foot traffic.
From Blade Runner:
One dies before we meet it. Deckard takes care of Roy, Pris, Zhora and Leon.
What happened to the sixth replicant?
Another Robin Hood one, the Sheriff calls Robin and his men a gang of thugs.That particular word came out of India a lot later. (yeah, I know the film is in modern English, not proper period dialog, but this particular word was jarring)
Well it was jolly thin. :eek:
Anyway, provided I remember correctly, they only showed screws on the back of the submarine. So having sailed up the narrow canals, how did it get back out? 
I always though that we’re meant to suspect it was Deckard.
The problem is Excelsior was the ship cataloging gaseous anomalies, not Enterprise. So Uhura’s suggestion they attach the gaseous-anomalies-tracking-equipment on the torpedo makes no sense, because Enterprise was not the ship tracking the anomalies.
Does “spotted by 40 million people, only not so many watched the movie” count?
In one of the Mission Impossible movies, there’s a scene at the beginning that takes place in Seville during the Holy Week processions. Lots of pretty women in gorgeous typical dresses. Only, the dresses are typical… from Valencia. About as realistic as having a scene with 1000 blonde, blue-haired, 6’-tall Spaniard chicks, you know?
Carnival is the whole week before Lent, actually. “Mardi Gras” would, originally, have been its last day.
Or maybe it’s standard equiptment carried by all research/ exploration vessels. Showing another ship using it makes it a more believable plot device than simply announcing that we luckiliy just happen to have a device to solve this particular problem.
Hannibal Lechter, the man who has spent the last seven years in a cell, can suddenly open a handcuff with a pen tube and paper clip lock and then overpower two cops with guns? PLEASE! :rolleyes:
It’s entirely possible to open an old fashioned handcuff with a pen tube and paper clip. I can’t do it, but I’ve seen it diagrammed.
Any time they show different locations in the world supposedly reacting to the same thing at the same time it is daytime… all across the globe (I’m looking at you Independence day!!)
Casablanca… why would the Nazis be powerless against letters of transit especially signed by DeGalle??
If they thought Victor Laslow was a threat why not arrest him right away.
This movie is full of anachronisms. The sword scene I mentioned grates on my nerves more than the others. shrug
(I had forgotten about the “thug” comment that Peter Morris mentioned. This bothered me when I first saw the film, in middle school.)
In the Star Trek movies – all of them – spaceships routinely travel faster than the speed of light. (This error also appeared in almost every episode of the various TV series.)
What, warp technology can’t handle this?
No, it’s been established in the ST universe that even warp speed is a linear mode of travel, and has an upper speed limit. I believe it’s 1000X the speed of light, but someone will likely come in and correct me soon.
