Theres the topic. I think the one for me is in Moonraker, Bond has a camera, breaks into a safe, takes photos of the documents in the safe, someone is coming so he has to get outta there, puts the camera IN THE SAFE and closes the safe door.
Share yours.

In Full Metal jacket there is a shot where the camera follows the squad as they advance towards the snipers positiosn. you can see a blurred head in front of the camera as it moves frm left to right, as one of teh set hands didnt get out of shot quick enough.
Another commen mistake; example. Grenade goes off outside car. Windows explode outwards. wtf?

In "Harry Potter and the Prisoner Of Azkaban", the shot where Sirius and Harry are talking together near the whomping willow looks really badly blue-screened. I mean really badly, for a film with that sort of budget.

In Terminator 2, when the T1000 is on the motorbike driving through the wreck towards the big office building, you can see a head running past the screen in the smoke.

In the first Austin Powers, Austin and Vanessa are lying on the bed. There is a wineglass on the bed beside Austin. Then the change camera angles for a second, and when it goes back to the same angle, the glass is on the night table. Watch the movie, it's very noticeable.

In Star Wars episode 1 or 2 Senator Palpatine changes his robes in the space of a screen-shot. Superman i think not.

I Gladiator at the beginningthere's a shot of Russell Crowe looking at a robin. Then you see the robin fly off and Maximus looks up at it as it flies off. Robins stay low when the start flying to avoid predators, it wouldn't have gone high in the air. Crowe is clearly not a method actor.

Anacondas are not as big, fast, or bloodthirsty as the Jennifer Lopez/Ice Cube movie would lead you to believe. They are indeed among the largest snakes in the world, but not THAT big.

i've only noticed a boom mic in living hell, and in killjoy they actually keep in a scene where this guy messes up his lines. two hilarious films.
apparenlty, in kill bill vol. 1, when go-go and uma are fighting, after go-go is hit with her weapon and flips on the table, you can see her stunt double's (who is a guy) hairy legs.

In Spaceballs they accidentally capture the actors' stunt doubles... and they kept the scene in! I can't believe they did that.

Somewhere in gladiator, you can see a guy in jeans and t-shirt walking backwards out of shot (probably a director or something, they didn't notice it till afterwards).
In Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone, when Harry meets Ron on the train and Ron is asking about Harry's scar, each time the camera cuts back to Ron, his hair is parted a different way.

cheaper by the dozen had several cases where you could see the mics.
in home alone, harry reaches for the doorknob and his hand is turned level with the ground, the design on the door that is burned into his hand is perpendicular to the ground. when harry's hand is burned, the burn mark,(which shapes an M i think), is parallel to his hand though.

It's just laziness on the director's part. Like in the climactic duel between Lonestar and Helmet, you can clearly see the camera crew for several seconds!

At the start of American Pie(right before the cum guzzling), the two people are in the bedroom with a cup of beer, which is blue. The camera changes angle and the cup becomes white, and then blue again on the next angle. Spooky.

In Twister, where Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt drive to the "Sisters", if you look outside the truck from the inside on the shot of Bill driving, you will see a sunny road, a few seconds later there's the shot of the truck in a stormy weather with the "Twin Sisters".
Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, after Sam tries to swim after Frodo and gets pulled in, the scene change after he gets pulled in his clothes are dry, but his hair isn't.
Alien vs. Predator hardly had any gore for a movie with Xenoforms and Yautjas.

A Beautiful Mind: Jennifer Connely(sp) has had enough of her hubbies worsening condition and is up alone late at night in the bathroom with a glass of water. She sobs, drinks the entire glass, then throws the glass at the mirror...sending water splashing everywhere. Always a fav. that one :)

The recent Rollerball was made. That movie was probably the worst thing that I have ever seen in my entire life.

In Napoleon Dynamite theres a head shot of Uncle Rico (i think thats his name) talking and he has some golden necklace on, then it goes to Napoleon talking, and when it goes back to Uncle Rico, theres no necklace.
Also, in Blue Crush towards the end and the chick is suposedly getting barrelled, if you look closely at the shot, its a dude wearing a Bikini because the actual stunt double got hurt.
in LOTR one i was told in the backgroudn as sam and frodo are leaving the shire there is a car in the background.
They haven't seen it. Its definatley not on the DVD.
In Pulp Fiction when Samuel L. Jackson is eating the burger the cheese changes colour everytime they cut back to him.

In the beginning of Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory, when their singing the "Candy man" song, The Candyman walks back behind the counter and closes the door. If you look closely, you'll see that the door hits the little girl following him. She just slighly moves her head up.

In "Napoleon Dynamite", during the scene where Napoleon and Pedro arrive to Napoleon's house on bike (after Pedro leaves the cake on Summer's porch), Uncle Rico chucks a piece of steak at Napoleon's face. Right after the shot where Napoleon gets hit and falls off the bike, there's a shot where Uncle Rico says something to Kip about his throw, and then spits out a piece of chewed-up steak in a napkin directly afterwards.

In Terminator 2 in the very beginning when Arnold takes the shotgun from the bartender. He's walking up to him, takes his hand on the rifle. Camera changes angle, his hand is on the gun, changes angle again, and his hand is off the gun.

Yautajas? Is that what they call themselves? The director of that film should be burnt, slowly for ruining it and Resident Evil.

In Predator one of Arnies troops gets his name wrong. A scorpion that is crushed underfoot is the wrong way round when he lifts his leg up. Surely the worst ever is Arnies mate who goes after the Predator, gets his arm blown off but you can clearly see it sloppily tucked into his haha sleeveless waistcoat!!

In saving Private Ryan, when they are at an airbase or something, where they look through dog tags and then later shout in the long line of soldiers, the soldiers go around in a loop. You can see the same soldier going past them twice.
They haven't seen it. Its definatley not on the DVD.
In Pulp Fiction when Samuel L. Jackson is eating the burger the cheese changes colour everytime they cut back to him.
I heard somewhere (I've never verified this) that in Pulp Fiction, all the clocks are set to 4 o'clock.

after all the giuys have threatened the police chief in the toilets of the restaurant, they leave out the back door. you can see bob's (the fat guy with ****) trousers fall down, and he pulls them back up again
bourne identity
when escaping from the embassy, jason ends up outside on a little platform with a ladder, if you watch the various shots you can see that sometimes it is deep in snow, and other times has no snow on it.
at one point he is walking straight away from the camera, and has a van goes by he 'disappears'. you can see his feet running along behind the van

Is it on the VHS version because I have it and i will try ot find it if it is.

Yea, if you watch the DVD version 's special features they tried getting that scene right and they use a blue cup and a clear cup of beer.
