PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 18, 2005 Report Posted October 18, 2005 Movie Mistakes....eh, it happens. Some of them kinda get on peoples nerves though. My biggest one is a scene in Goodfellas...and you gotta watch it to see it. Paulie, the Restaurant Owner and Henry are sitting down at a table and the owner asks Paulie to take half the business. Paulie says..."this isnt even fair...no?" In the MIDDLE of the sentence it switches angles. First Angle...back of Paulies head he has a cigar in his mouth....1 second later, its in his hand with no smoke coming outta his mouth. Physically Impossible between two words to do. That...and the sound is a little freaky there. You guys got any that you have noticed? You guys can post TV Shows...just no Lifetime movies...the mistake with those were that they were actually made.
Shawna Posted October 18, 2005 Report Posted October 18, 2005 "Blazing Saddles" in the scene at the beginning where Lavar Burton is singing "I get no kick from champagne" on the railroad, when the camera pans to Slim Pickens and his co-horts, there are several men behind them. Next scene is Lavar Burton talking. Next scene - very next line in the conversation - suddenly those people behind Slim Pickens are gone. I've got a whole book about the mistakes in "Wizard of Oz."
bazooka Posted October 18, 2005 Report Posted October 18, 2005 .. Lavar Burton .. Shawna, I think you made a mistake your own self. I believe the Blazing Saddles actor is Cleavon Little.
PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Posted October 19, 2005 Yeah, Wizard of Oz has lots of mistakes...maybe cause it was directed by like 5 different directors at different times. oh, and there was never any munchkin hanging himself.
Kevin Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 The Rocky Horror Picture Show : The criminologist describes the events of the movie as taking place "on a late November evening". In the very next scene, Brad and Janet are driving in Brad's car, and President Richard Nixon's resignation speech is playing on the radio. Nixon resigned in August of 1974.
daslied Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 My favorite is in the first Star Wars, when the stormtrooper hits his head on a door. It's the scene, I believe, when the main people are in the trash compactor and trying to contact C3PO and R2D2, who are hiding in a closet from the stormtroopers. The stormtroopers break open the door, and the guy on the back left smacks right into the door. He went through before it was fully open, and didn't duck. I watched this movie 1000 times before noticing it, and I can't believe I had missed it. It is incredibly obvious.
Ken Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 There is a website, Movie Nitpickers that dedicates itself to inconsistencies, continuity errors, visible microphones, Rolex's on Roman soldiers, jet contrails in old movies, that type of stuff. Enjoy! Ken.
Shawna Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 Shawna, I think you made a mistake your own self. I believe the Blazing Saddles actor is Cleavon Little. doh! Well then who the hell is Lavar Burton?
daslied Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 The "Reading Rainbow" guy. Also known as "Kunta Kinte". Or however you spell it.
daslied Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 That kind of looks like Urkel, with an enormous codpiece.
miamisammy29 Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THAT THING??!!
PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Posted October 19, 2005 Isnt that Jordy Laforge off of Star Trek: The Next Generation?
Tenacious_Peaches Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 Yes, it is. He's had a rather interesting career path, wouldn't you say?
PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Posted October 19, 2005 Id say so. You didnt mind watching him in Star Trek, but then...you just wanted to throw a rock through the TV when he did Reading Rainbow. It just didnt grasp my attention.
Batman Posted October 20, 2005 Report Posted October 20, 2005 For TV, there was an episode of Scooby Doo where they were underwater, and for about 5 seconds, Shaggy's hair was blonde.
PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Posted October 20, 2005 Scooby Doo had another mistake.... The laughtrack was EVERY 5 FREAKIN SECONDS! If you watch an episode of Scooby Doo today(an old episode) if you listen, it will literally piss you off.
Earth-Angel Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 www.moviemistakes.com is another good source for movie trivia and bloopers. The best movie bloopers (<)
PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 21, 2005 Author Report Posted October 21, 2005 Oof, just caught one. Ladder 49...they are in a drinking contest...first angle girl...glass is almost gone...second angle, its filled up double of what it was. i catch those small things. What i would give to be a Hollywood Director.
RyanTurtle Posted October 23, 2005 Report Posted October 23, 2005 The one that always gets me is in the first Matrix movie. When Neo gets the phone from the FedEx guy. In the background there is someone's hand setting on the desk behind Keanu.
PSYCHOcatholic Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Posted October 24, 2005 Ya know, ive seen that too Jimmy...but i never thought much of it... Theres another thing to add to my list.
Shawna Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 During "The Pelican Brief" Julia Roberts had just married Lyle Lovett, and in the last scene in the movie she's wearing her wedding ring, whereas in the rest of the movie it's not there. She got married in the midst of filming.
_jr_ Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 I paid 4.50 to rent 'Sideways'. That was pretty annoying.
