I had a quick hunt and couldn't find another thread on it so...

I'm watching Die Hard at the mo and spotted that when the second guard is killed the sound of the gun going off is heard after the shot lands...

Anyone else spot some mistooks in Hollywood's finest?

ETA: Also, casting Alan Rickman as a German was a pretty bad move

Watched the bank job last night, set in the 70's but the phone number they read out starts 019, would have been 09 back then.

The recent trailers for Quantum of solace had Bond looking beaten up talking to Judi Dench. In one shot his shirt collar is sticking out from his jacket, in the next its not.

The latest Indiana Jones film, and the latest Star Wars films, all one huge mistake.

I think one of the most obvious is the Porsch in Commando, but it doesn't really matter, being a true 'watch with a curry and six pack' movie.

One of my favourites is Ice Cold In Alex (great war movie) - at the end of the film when one of them is carted off by the rozzers, he's picked up in a Land Rover, which weren't released until after the war.

The stormtrooper who hits his head in Starwars is a classic.

One that I notice everytime is The Terminator where Arnie is rampaging through the police station, assault rifle in one hand and a shotgun in the other. Cop takes a pot shot at him from beind, Arnie wheels around and opens up with both guns, except the shotgun makes a rifle sound and the rifle makes a shotgun sound.

How very sadnerd

Not entirely accurate. The film ends with a POV looking out the rear of a period truck, and an errant Land Rover is seen by the road side.
There is a Landy in "633 Squadron" though.

Tyre tracks in the sand at the end of El Cid and TV aerials on the houses in the background are two I remember.

Think so. Equally in Gladiator, one of the centurions is wearing a digital casio.

I watched Diamonds are Forever the other day and the car entering the allyway on its right wheels and exiting on its left wheels was so obvious.
