10 Stupid Mistakes You’ve Never Spotted

9. Oscar Blunders

Even Oscar-nominated films can find themselves at the wrong end of the movie mistakes spectrum if they don’t keep a close enough eye on what’s happening beyond the camera lens. This year’s Oscar nominee blunders included the changing spelling of Captain Philips title in the Tom Hanks movie of the same name, some impressive oxygen-preserving by Sandra Bullock in Gravity, and some magical appearing underwear on multiple occasions in The Wolf of Wall Street. For some reason, it’s always doubly satisfying to catch the blunders of a movie so well respected.

    My favorite was the dust trail of the car driving uphill behind Gandolf and Bilbo riding into town, in the premiere of “The Hobbit” as seen in Bangkok. I understand the dust was translated into smoke from a chimney in later copies.

    Worst movie mistake of all time? Hope Floats. The whole thing.

  • Al Scarbrough

    In the 1974 movie “Duel” starring Dennis Weaver, the scene where Weaver’ character is in the phone booth talking to the police, you can see Steven Spielberg’s reflection in the glass of the phone booth during close-up shots of Weaver. Spielberg’s beard and huge 70′s glasses are in plain sight in the reflection. You even see him give Weaver a couple of timing cues. Classic blooper that I have never seen anyone talk about. The only reason I know about it is that I recently bought a DVD of “Duel” and happened to spot the blooper.

    • jim marcum

      i like that movie and have watched it a few times even on youtube. I never noticed it. now I will watch it again to see this, thanks you are observant.

      • Al Scarbrough

        Thanks. I have always had people tell me that I am observant of the most minuscule details, so seeing different flubs in movies is something that I have always been able to do and enjoy it immensely. Nothing quite like finding that seam in multi-million-dollar productions. LOL

    The JURASSIC weather is not a good example. The shots in question were 180 degrees from each other and therefore the weather could look different, especially on a mountainous island.

    • Duke Sweden

      The one thing that always bugged me about Jurassic Park was the fact that both Timmy and his sister could easily have slid through the huge holes in the fence. They didn’t need to climb over it. Also I’d have bee-yotch slapped Dr. Grant after he pretended to be electrocuted. Didn’t the kids suffer enough trauma up to that point?!?

      • Jamie Longan

        You know what bugs me about Jurassic park is that DNA only has a half life of 520 years which means after 1040 years there is no usable data to even clone the dino.

    In the nemo one that isn’t a ziploc bag. The plastic tracks are missing. They are so obvious it would be hard not to see them if they were there.. It’s just the edge of a regular bag. Sorry guys, you messed this one up.

    • way2kay

      I was saying the exact same thing when I read that…it doesn’t look anything like a zipper bag…

      < MARTINEZ,,,This system reveals to people exactly how they can rapidly lose over 1 pound of body weight daily.

You don’t need to restrict yourself to certain types of foods like ‘no carbs’ or ‘no sugar’, but rather include ‘the good stuff’ as well to help burn the fat.

        < WILSON …L0sing weight in a short space of time has always been thought of as a near impossible task.

    One the jerassic Park comment, obviously you have neve been to nevada. I have multiple pictures where one part of the sky is COMPLETELY clear and the other has clouds just like this. So I beleive this is still completely realistic. Since one shot if the sky infront of him and the other is behind. So this mistake is a reach in my eyes.

    For #10 in the article, the added sound effect was not just a “thump”, but also included a squeal of feedback, as if hitting his head had briefly activated the armor’s built-in two-way radio.

    and then there is the Princess phone on the wall of Mrs. Ryan’s kitchen when she walks toward the door in ‘Saving Private Ryan’… another Spielberg goof.

  • Devin Hanna

    In Need for Speed, in one shot, one of the door mirrors is visible where the thin camera is supposed to be.

    Does it count if whomever did the write up for Jurassic Park, spelled ‘Dinosaurs’ incorrectly? Dumbass spelled it, d-I-n-a-s-o-u-r-s. Whaa? Spellcheck people, use it.

  • decrepitoldperson

    Rebeccadrellermay: Sorry to point this out, but in your dressing down of dumbass, you used “whomever” incorrectly. “Whoever” should be used as the subject of the verb “did”. You have a complex sentence; it needs 2 subjects. “It” is one, and “whoever” is the other. And dumbass missed class in 4th grade the day the teacher explained that we don’t use apostrophes to make pronouns possessive. “It’s” has one meaning only, and that is, “it is”. The word “it’s” NEVER means “belonging to it”. Thank you. I shall now crawl back into my cave in order to avoid the avalanche of rocks that shall be thrown in my direction.

  • Kate Vazquez

    Does anyone care?

  • Jamie Longan

    Those “gas lamps” in gone with the wind are not gas lamps. You can clearly tell they are light bulb lamps and yes they have been around since before the movie was made. Not to mention gas lamps are actually called “paraffin lamps” or “paraffin oil lamp” and also a “kerosene oil lamp.”

  • Jamie Longan

    The jurassic park one is wrong, the camera man could not have gotten over the fence and filmed the guy from the other side without capturing the children behind him! It’s obviously a different angle!

    On the Jurassic Park scene, just because the sky in one direction is clear. That does not mean the entire sky, within the characters view would be clear. Have they ever heard of the weather term, scattered clouds?
