“Terminator 2: Judgment Day”: A Magical Healing Jacket
Big Arnold has a habit of being in movies that have items that heal themselves. In this instance, it’s the blockbuster “Terminator 2: Judgment Day.” During a scene when the T-1000 is facing down Arnold and John Connor, the enemy terminator unloads a cartridge into the T-800’s back, peppering his leather jacket with bullet holes but not doing too much damage to Arnold’s robotic body.
A few moments later, however, as the two terminators are in close-quarters, the jacket Arnold has is once again whole and unmarred. Probably not comfortable wearing a jacket with holes in it, but they should have at least tried.
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”: Eye Witnesses
Ask any Harry Potter fan, and they will tell you that Harry looks exactly like his father, except he has his mother's green eyes. Not only is it mentioned in all of the books, but the films are full of that mention as well.
So what on god's green earth made the casting director cast young Lily (that's Harry's mom for you) as a brown-eyed girl? No one knows for sure, but the fans will forever remain furious.
“Dallas Buyers Club”: The Future of Cars
During one scene of “Dallas Buyers Club,” we sit inside the office of Matthew McConaughey's character, Ron Woodroof, who is diagnosed with AIDS and goes on a quest to get medication for AIDS/HIV, during a time when research for the disease was underfunded. The movie came out in 2013, and for the most part, it looks just right in its mid-eighties setting, but there are still a few mistakes.
One of them, behind Woodroof's chair in his office, is a poster of a Lamborghini Aventador, a sweet sports car that, unfortunately, didn't come out until 2011.
“Avatar”: Instant Wheels
Saying there are mistakes and goofs in “Avatar” is like saying there are plums in plum pudding. We all know that it's going to happen, so let's get this over with.
At one point, as Jake tears open his capsule during a tense scene, it's clear that there is no wheelchair near him when the lid of the capsule opens, but when the camera angle changes, the wheelchair is right next to the capsule, close enough for Jake to slid himself into and kept the action rolling. Thankfully, it's a rather innocuous mistake, but there are plenty more where that came from.
“Inglourious Basterds”: Maybe it Kept Falling Off
Richard Sammel's character, Sgt. Rachtman is a brutal and ruthless SS officer that appeared on screen opposite the Basterds from another one of Quentin Tarantino's violent historical movies.
We already know that Tarantino isn't all that strict about having his movies be historically accurate, but even he toned it down for this World War II flick. Yet a mistake still slipped in during a scene that has Sammel's character wearing a medal on his left breast. In one shot, it's there; in the next, it's gone, and then it returns in the next shot.
