goofs. do you guys notice them

[dajaga]

i was wondering do you guys notice any goofs when watching a movie. like inconsistencies in a scene. ex. 2 people are in a conversation actor 1 has his hat on backwards and during the same scene the hat will magically switch to the side and than on backwards again.

bad example.
for me i dont notice these things, i guess i get too involved in my movies

[tiger roach]

I usually do not notice them unless someone points them out to me.

[GOAT]

same here... recently when watching the Pinocchio BD the commentators pointed out Gepeto (sp?) went back and fourth from having a hat to not having one... had never noticed til they pointed out

You're a goof.

* Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): At some point Dr. Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) can be seen in the laboratory filling a pipette and subsequently holding it upside-down (which would cause the liquid to run into the apparatus and is strictly to be avoided).

* Plot holes: Near the ending of the movie, after the Na'vi have taken over the base, when they are marching the human military back onto the cargo planes to leave they are not wearing any masks to protect them from the air.

* Continuity: During the first battle between the humans and the Navi, the Navis' arrows failed to penetrate any of the human vehicles' windshields. However, during the final battle, the Navi arrows successfully penetrate the windshields.

* Plot holes: During the attack on Hometree, Trudy decides not to fire her missiles and actually retreats in her helicopter (much to the surprise of the gunman who had been firing on the Navi). Wouldn't she have faced some sort of disciplinary action for this? Yet later in the film, she appears to have full access to the guarded prisoners.

* Continuity: During the first conference meeting with Quaritch and Selfridge, Jake Sully's arms change position back and forth, from overhanging the complex map display to hanging in his lap, between shots.

some scenes in quantum of solace....daniel criags collar is out of his suit then it changes and its inside his suit....and when olga kurylenko has her arms over mathieu almeric i think....her hands magically movie from his shoulders to his arms

I try to ignore goofs or errors in movies, and NEVEr look for them. I like to be immersed in the experience and "goofs" ruin it for me.

[My_Two_Cents]

Lots of discussionon this topic here.

[sfmarine]

If you watch Fast and the Furious...when Tran is racing the crazy guy in the Jetta...Tran changes his shirt and it is quite hilarious. I guess they broke for lunch and he changed into a tank top but it's very noticeable. Goofs are common but you'd figure someone would notice them lol.

[tom pain]

I spot a few.

The one I noticed is in Rocky IV when Creed is about to fight Drago. You see him sorting out his gloves in the ring (lacing them up or something) then in the next scene he points at Drago without his gloves on, then they are immediately back on again!

[ShelbyGT500]

Yeah I notice them but not all the time. Sucks too cuz once I see them I start looking for more durring the movie. Sometimes they are just funny, sometimes there are so many it takes you out of the movie.

[Q?]

I avoid goofs at all times!
I hate knowing them, don't want to, helps to keep the magic alive...

[Steve]

I notice them occasionally.

I just love the 7 speed Eclipse in that movie

But yeah I notice goofs here and there. In Next Friday, when Ice Cube is fighting Joker in the backyard at the end, he throws the Joker on the ground and his shoe comes off. When he gets up, his shoe is back on

[Show spoiler]That's not a goof. The penetrating arrows had a lot more velocity to them. Gravity tends to do that.

[ScarredLungs]

Here are a whole list of goofs.

I notice more in TV shows than in movies.

Actually, no.

[Show spoiler]The speed of an arrow shot from a bow would have a much higher velocity than the terminal velocity of the arrow from gravity (and they are not additive). I just assumed the arrows were larger (more mass = more force, and they did look larger) and tipped with something that would allow better penetration of the glass.

[Psychonaut]

I notice sometimes but they have to be pretty glaring. I'm not looking for them at all.

[LordCrumb]

I certainly notice more continuity errors more than usual, it find them hard to ignore because some of them are just so obvious.

One real, real bad goof I hope they fix when it comes to BD, is in the film 'Papillon' when one of the characters goes into a leper hutt, the lepers are talking but their mouths dont move at all (the UK dvd is too bright).
