In Mean Girls, after the Halloween party, Damian tosses his bowl of popcorn all over when Cady walks in but his bowl is full in the next scene.


What are some mistakes you've seen in movies?

In the Movie Black Hawk Down, a crew member is clearly visible in one of the Humvees during a battle sequence.

I noticed the other day in Batman that one of Joker's goons puts paint on a painting, in the next scene it's not there.

I love movie goofs, and I love when I catch them while watching the movie. It makes me feel like I've accomplished something.

This is not really a goof, but a fact...in the movie Invincible, during the game vs. the Giants, the actor on the Giants (who in real life was a football player for a local college) was not supposed to make contact with Mark Wahlberg. However when the cameras were rolling, he took him out full force with a really big hit. They kept the cameras rolling though and Wahlberg played the scene out as if it nothing happened. The actor/player who hit Wahlberg was fired/thrown off set, but the scene stayed in the movie.

In that Arnold movie Eraser, the bartender guy puts his vest on, then it goes to a cut scene, and then it shows him putting the vest on again

One of my favorites is in Gladiator when Maximus is walking around the camp near the beginning of the film and you can see a crew member in jeans and a t-shirt between the legs of a horse. The crew member clearly realizes he's in the shot and suddenly walks backwards out of it. I point it out to my friends every time we watch it.

There are a lot more than that.

-A compressor tank during the chariot fight
-Printed posters advertising (the printing press came over 1000 years later)
-Extras that were killed seen in the audience and/or fighting again

I always think about the gas tank inside of the chariot in Gladiator. Haha. Classic.

Oh yeah, I know about those (looked em up on imdb) but the crew guy is my favorite because of his stumble out of the frame. I chuckle every time.

It happens right after I think. There's that scene where you see Commodus sparring with a couple guys and then I think it cuts to Maximus walking around. I believe if you look off to the left of the screen you can see a horse and if you look between its legs you'll see the crew guys legs. It happens pretty quick so you have to watch closely but once you see it for the first time...you can't help but look for it every time I think.

One of my favorites, because I caught it when I was 8 is in Jurassic Park when the cars are parked at the Tyrannosaurus Padlock in the rain. Gennaro runs out of the car in fear towards the bathroom, leaving the door wide open. A wide shot of both cars is shown and the door is clearly shut. In the next shot, Tim shuts the door, catching the T-Rex's attention.

The Three Men and a Baby scene was rumored to have a ghost in it, but it's really just a cardboard cut-out.

In Star Wars: A New Hope when the Stormtroopers enter the Millenium Falcon and one of them nails his head on the top of the door. There's a loud "thud" and the scene was never cut. It's so obviousl, yet so easy to miss when you watch it.

I also like the one in Spider-Man where Peter is practicing his web shooting. He's in his bedroom and he hits a lamp with his webbing and yanks it back, clearly breaking the lamp. Then it cuts to his Aunt May coming to the room and you can clearly see the lamp sitting right back on his desk, unbroken.

Ugh, I'm glad but that was still creepy. Even if it had just been some random kid standing there in the shot I still would have been creeped out. Little kids are just creepy haha.

I remember seeing something on tv about the entire scene when they were attacked, and it didn't make sense to have the cars over the cliff, cause originally there was nothing like that there beside the cars. But Speilberg kept it anyway, just cause that whole thing made the scene.

In a scene in Oceans Eleven Brad Pitt is eating out of this cup and immediately following he is seen eating from a plate.

Dumb and Dumber has some of the best movie mistakes of all time.

Especially how in one scene, Lloyd can't read the news paper, and 15 minutes later he exits the bar, reading the news paper article on the wall - "We landed on the moon!"

War of the Worlds- the aliens took out every electronic in the city when they landed, yet someone is filming the ship coming out of the ground with a camcorder a few minutes later.

In Final Destination 3, when the main character gets on the roller coaster, she has a vision of the roller coaster crashing, which occurs because another passenger on board (the creepy guy who wants to videotape the hot girls), took his camcorder on board with him, and when the coaster goes around the first loop, he drops it onto the track below, which the car later hits and it puts its wheels off the track. However, when the main character awakes from her vision, the guy with the camcorder gets off the rollercoaster, with his camcorder in his hand, meaning the coaster never should have crashed.

Spielberg does whatever the hell he wants for dramatic effect. He realizes he's making a goof but still does it, haha. Like in Jurassic park, there's ground on the side of the vans where the goat that gets eaten is tied up. Yet when they escape from the T-Rex, it's a cliff.
