We've all seen movies where we see something amiss, or we walk out of the theater and go, "Wait a minute, that didn't make since" "They really Messed up" What are dome of the ones that are your favorite?

In Brubaker (Robert Redford): There is a scene where they are diding up the exercise fields around the penetentury and finding bodies. It is a dark pouring rain. It could be night for all we know. A trustee runs up to Brubaker and tells him one of the "Bad" trustees has taken off with one of the Prison vehicles. Brubaker says to get a couple of men and guns...they're going after him...the chase is on. Cut to: A prison Van, with Brubaker driving, speeding down aHOT, DRY, DUSTY road. Okay, it coulda been a localised storm. But the car is dry, the men's clothes are dry (except for sweat stains) and it's a bright cloudless sky! I had to go back and see it again just to confirm it. (Maybe they did it intentionally? LOL)

In the movie 'Titanic', a man with a yellow shirt & a black moustache fell off the boat & drowned. 5 minutes later the same exact man was seen playing the violin with 2 other men.

In one scene in the film Titanic, you can see a small hill with a town on it over Leonardo DiCaprio's shoulder, even though he is supposedly in the middle of the Atlantic.

In the movie Beetleguise, Ortho & Delia are walking up the steps of the house. Before they walk up the steps, Ortho pops the top off a spray paint can & hands it to Delia. But, when they cut to them walking up the steps, the cap is back on & he actually pops it off again.

In "Grease" one scene has Frenchy in the soda shop with the waitress. It's closing time and as the waitress goes to turn the light off, you see her struggle to turn it off with her elbow, you hear the light switch click, and the light goes off. Only, her elbow is nowhere near the light switch!!

In Maverick (Mel Gibson) there is a knock on his door and Jody Foster comes in. they immediately go into a passionate revolving kissing scene that takes them into the middle of the room. Sudenly there;s a knock on the door. They turn and ask "Who's there" to the closed door. Unfortunatly, the never got around to closing the door in the first place.

A friend and fellow Matrix-fan pointed this one out to me in the movie The Matrix:

The lobby scene involves LOTS of shooting, and the marble pillars are shown, at the end of the scene, to be all crumbling and busted up from the bullets. A few minutes later, the elevator is dropped, and it is seen exploding, the flames shooting through the lobby. Problem is, the marble pillars are untouched in this scene.

In the movie Air Force One...In the scene where the president first tries to get into the conference room, we see one of the terrorists put two bullet holes in the door. Later when the president opens these very same doors, the bullet holes are gone.

This has to do with the movie The Game and how it ends. So if you haven't seen the movie and plan to, quit reading this. Otherwise scroll down please.

Near the end of The Game when Michael Douglas jumps off of the building, how did the people running the Game know that he would jump off at exactly that spot and crash thru the glass roof and land on the big air bag? Just a lucky guess I suppose?
But, I still thought it was a great movie.

In the movie Twister, Helen Hunt & Bill Paxton are driving in his red pick up truck. This happens right before the gas tanker truck blows up. They're driving down the road in the midst of the tornado, debris flying all over, a childs bike(I think that's what it is), hits the windshield of their truck and cracks it. The screen quickly switches back to show the twister, then back to them in the truck, this time the windshield has no crack. Ta-Dah!

In "Buccaneer Bunny", Yosemite Sam chases Bugs Bunny for discovering the former's cache. Bugs leaps into an anchored boat on shore and keeps rowing though the boat slips under him! Sam swims for his ship, where Bugs has fled, only to swim back with the oars! But when he jumps in the anchor and rope vanish, leaving only a knot in the rope ring, and when he swims back, that's gone and the boat has drifted from shore!

In one of the biblical epics from the 1960s, I believe it was "King of Kings," when they do a pan of the crowd listening to the Sermon on the Mount, a woman in the crowd is wearing sunglasses.

It has to be the vanishing and reappearing carpet in Rocky Horror. When Columbia does the tap dance bit in the middle of Timewarp, watch the red carpet - now you see it, now you don't, now it's back again!

In both Armageddon and Independence Day, events happen and then reactions around the world are shown. Why is everyone in daylight in Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, etc.?
