When i first seen fellowship of the ring at the pictures (cant mind what scene) there is a ford focus driving past. And when the nazgul get swept down the river there was a dingy boat siting there.

In the Yellow Snow Cone skit of the Jackass movie...once sec he's eaten it all then next it's all perfectly on the cone...wrong way around mate.
In Fight Club when Meat Loaf's supposed to be dead you can see him beathing.
In Jurassic Park when you see the raptor getting born the egg turned turns the egg..thehn disappears on close up with Hammond.
Bah..editors.

I've noticed that one as well. I notice a lot as well, only one i can remember at the mo is from the film The Faculty, in the scene when Josh Hartnetts character is looking through his microscope at his wee dead mouse he moves his glasses round to the back of his head then it shows you him with them on his face 2 seconds later.

i noticed that in scream2 the girls swap sides when they went someplace in a car.

i refuse to believe there's a focus in Fellowship until someone shows me it on my DVDs.

my god, he's right...

"Many viewers reported that they spotted a car in the background of the theatrical version when Sam says that he is now the furthest he has ever been from home. Director Peter Jackson in a 1 December 2003 Newsweek article confirms the presence of a car, seen in the theatrical release of the movie. The DVD versions reveal no such car, because it was subsequently removed digitally. Jackson says: "We actually didn't know about the car until we were cutting the movie. The smoke and dust wasn't so bad because there was already lots of it around, but the bloody windshield was reflecting the sun back into the camera lens. So we erased it for the DVD. I think some people were upset because they tried to show it to their friends and it was gone.""

AAAAAAH thankyou ive always wondered about this

I'm not good at spotting these, I remember the Big Breakfast had a segment full of them, it was especially funny when it was a movie I dont like. There's a Short Circuit fansite which has a bit with all the errors in the film, but why don't they just let it lie, eh?

There's a Beach Boys TV movie which is full of inaccuracies and outright lies. Mike Love had a hand in it though, so it's no great suprise.

I'm convinced that Love Actually was just one big mistake, or at least a joke gone too far.

I hope passion of the christ has some doozies (i'm not talking historical inaccuracies, i'm far too shallow for that, more like someone wearing a watch, or a frankie Says Relax T-Shirt in shot).

don't know if anybody else noticed this but in the return of the king when sam has just wiped all that web shit off frodo's face his eyes are closed but when it goes to a further back shot of the two together his eyes are open, then when it zooms back in again his eyes are closed again.

also in star wars episode 2 when they are in the bar after aniken jamp out of the ship thingy (can't remember exactly been a long time since i've seen it) the poofy ponytail thin he's got that comes over his shoulder keeps switching from shoulder to shoulder.
