Pick at a movie here.

I've been watching films for a few years now. No, really. And although they are my Number 1 passtime, I love picking holes in them.

So, a few for ya :

Commando : the bit where the yellow porsche gets turned over, watch it after arnie rights it again, as he drives off, the smashed to fff door is somehow pristine again.

robocop : as clarence boddiker gets thrown through a window, slow it down, the window smashes a whole second before he hits it.

robocop : watch the rocket ed-209 fires - there's a black wire guiding it.

predator 2 : in the first one when the pred takes his mask off, his vision goes all red, in the second one, he has it taken off and his vision is exactly the same.

ok, you got the idea, less-av'em.

Oh, right - thanks for clearing that up. I'm not a schoolboy - that's why I didn't know.

*ahem, indeed*

In Shawshank Redemption, it's quoted as "just under 20 years" that have passed. Every schoolboy knows that nobody ages visibly in a period of any less than exactly 20 years.

In "the" car chase in Bullit Steve McQueen passes the same green Volkswagen Beetle about 5 times - this was mentioned on a TV programme *after* I'd spotted it.

In one of Steven Seagal's film - the one where the bad guy turns out to be twins - he chops (one of) the bad guy's head off but you can tell it was a dummy because you can see someone holding the rod that's stuck up it's ass.

In the greatest film ever - The Shawshank Redemption - a period of 20 years passes but no one seems to get any older.

In Pulp Fiction John Travolta's character gets shot by Bruce Willis, but at the end of the film he's still alive ... ; ^ D
