• (Continuity) Jack Nicholson is at his character's retirement party. Camera shows him and wife eating dinner at the head table and their plates are nearly finished. Camera goes to a guest speaker at the party and back to head table and now their dinner plates are full again. - Sharsie

• In the scene where Seagal fights the guys in the liquor store, he picks one of them up, throws the guy over his shoulder, and jumps through the plate glass window. In the fight and while preparing to jump, Seagal is wearing black cowboy boots. When he crashes through the window and lands on the sidewalk, he's wearing black Reebok athletic shoes. - Kieth Moreland

• In one scene where the bad guys enter the "exit pond" room in the underwater base, they sees the base of the "water worm" where it emerges from the water. You can clearly see that the computer graphics that makes the worm stops somewhat above the bottom of the picture, forming a cut-off line. - Axel Eng

• Not really a goof but funny. Why does a underwater drilling platform need license plates? - navylady2

• When the bad buy is trying to set off the nuke, Bud is chasing behind him. If you look at the bad guy's propellers his submarine you notice that they aren't spinning yet the submarine is moving forward at good speed. - LordCthulhu

• I just keep wondering and wondering... on the scene where 2 main characters have to swim to reach an other side... How is it possible to keep your breath for so long? Okay perhaps they have big lungs.. they are divers anyway... How come the seawater looks so clear, it doesn't look polluted or troubled. But what I really wonder, how come none of them seem to have problems with the water's temperature?? - Dennis

• In the part where Bud and the Navy SEALs go into the sunken submarine there are the dead sailors. There is a bright light shining on them to sort of show their faces better. A director's effect. Anyway, one scene shows a dead sailor in the bottom right-hand corner. When the light shines on him his eyes twitch from the bright light. (DVD) - Bowzer

• (Revealing mistakes) Along with the amount of time that the divers can hold their breath, let's also consider the enormous pressure of being that far under water. When a minisub gets a slight crack, it implodes violently, but we're supposed to believe that the fragile lungs of a human can stand up to similar pressure? - dhull
  • Correction: Divers are pressurized so the pressure surrounding them are the same as inside their body. Therefore a sub do not implode if cracked... neither does a human body! The facts shown, because the level of water inside the ridge is pressured to sustain a low level, making it possible to dive from an open-buttom ridge. - MDK
  • Explanation: Let's also consider the enormous pressure of being that far under water. When a minisub gets a slight crack, it implodes violently, but we're supposed to believe that the fragile lungs of a human can stand up to similar pressure? Actually, The human body will adapt to the pressure, and become equal to the surrounding pressure... otherwise we could never dive more than about 20 feet deep... the whole point of the guy Coffee going crazy was about the uncommon failure to adapt to the pressure. - Caradoc

There is a chess board, and this chess board has all of the pieces neatly organized on it. Now I forget if Ace knocks the pieces off or what, but in the following scenes the chess pieces are not on the board, and then mysteriously back on the board. - James Wiese
  • Ace doesn't knock the pieces off, they just disappear.

• When Ace falls out of the back of the fake rhino, you can see his balls if you put it in slow motion. - Beck1

• In the beginning, when Ace and Fulton (is that his name?) are in the jeep crashing through the forest, Ace sings "CHITTTTTTYYYYYY!!!" really loud and guns the pedal. The car comes busting out of the brush, flips over, and the driver side door opens, revealing the driver, who is wearing jeans. Excuse me, but when did Ace wear jeans? - Sue

Herbert Mundin as Much the Miller's Son

• In the part where Harrison Ford Has been tied up and he unties himself to attack the bad guy, he swings to punch the guy, but if you play in in slow motion, you can definitely see he swung at nothing Yet the guy who got "punched" must be a really good actor because it looked like it hurt. - Katie
  • Comment: Katie says it's a goof when you can see, in slow motion, that the actors doesn't hit each others for real in fights. It's just a movie! The heroes aren't for real, and it's not intended to be watched in slow motion! I'm pretty tired of reading all this "goof-comments" about what you can see in slo-mo. A goof is, in my opinion, something that you can see in normal viewing, that shouldn't be there. - Olav Westerman
    • Comment: When someone says "If you watch in slo-mo." or something to that effect...it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't tell the goof is there without slow motion, it could mean that watching it in slow motion may help you see the goof better. And even if the goof needed to be viewed in slow motion to see it, it is still nice to know in case you want to check the "goof" out...you don't have to take it as a slam to the directors of the films or the films themselves...it's just something cool to see. - David
    • Comment: "Olav"'s comment on "Katie"'s goof. Hey Olav! how do you think Katie saw the goof? Do you really think she watched the whole movie in slow-mo? The fact that she noticed it means that she saw it while in "normal viewing". So, Olav, next time, before making any comment, think about it first, okay? - tochi

• On the plane when the terrorists shoot a guy, bullet holes appear in the back of him but there are none in the front. - Dr. Crawford
  • Correction: I'd like to point out that bullets do not always necessarily go "through" a person when shot. You can be shot in the back and not have one mark to show for it in the front. Thus making this NOT a goof. - Aine
  • Explanation: It is perfectly possible that you see only the exit wounds. The entry wounds are small to invisible, especially if through clothing (don't believe all those blood fountains they show you :-)) - Ido

• In the scene towards the beginning of the movie when Harrison Ford first boards the plane, he is in his room and he's talking with his wife. Look at his tie and you will see a huge coffee stain on it. A very noticeable goof, Indiana Jones. - Sean

• In the beginning of the movie when the terrorist are shooting guns, Alison opens the door to see what's the matter and yells for "daddy". It's clear that her shirt is white. At the end when they "retake" the plane her shirt is now gray. (And not from just being dirty.) - Cerasi

• (Factual errors) When it is learned that Air Force One is hijacked, F-15's are scrambled from a base in Germany called "Rammstein Air Force Base." In reality the base is called "Ramstein Air Base" and it does not contain fighter jets, including the F-15's. I know, I lived there. Perhaps the makers knew this, and went with it anyway. However, this factual error didn't ruin the movie for me or anyone else on the base when they saw it in the theater. - AZJoe

  • Well, not much makes sense in this crazy, spoof, parody, comedy. "Surely you can't be serious?" "I am serious and don't call me Shirley."
  • Correction: When you've seen the whole movie, you'll see that the man of which you presume he is an assistant is completely nuts (Bridges:'more koffee!' Man:'no thanks'.) - Bart

• On the carpet ride, Aladdin and Jasmine fly past a full moon. A minute later, they see a half moon reflected in the water. - The Big J
  • Correction: Actually, when Aladdin and Jasmine fly past the moon, you see the whole moon but only a portion (on the left hand side as you are looking at the moon) is lit up. Therefore, they did not fly past the full moon, since a full moon would have been completely illuminated, not just one section. So the reflection in the water is correct. - Macrae

• [View Trivia]

• Why would a cargo ship containing mineral ore have a self destruct sequence? - The Briggster
  • Comment: It would be very wise to have such a device if the ship malfunctioned and was about to crash on Earth, or another inhabited planet. Remember: This ship was HUGE! - Olav Westerman

• There is no security device where the captain and second in command have to enter a code to access it. Ripley accesses it by herself! - The Briggster
  • Correction: Well, Ripley is second in command of the ship, that's why she was able to access it. There was a security system as well. Before they could go into that room to talk to Mother, they had to "match" one of those little cards into the correct slot for the door to open. I don't know what that's called, but it was a sort of key system. The only people who had access were Ripley and the captain (I think it was Dallas). Ash got into the room later in the movie though, while Ripley was in there, if that's what you mean. But remember he was an "artificial person", who was programmed to kill the crew to assure the alien was brought back alive, so he can probably bend a few rules. - ToAsTeR
    • Explanation: She is in fact in the engine room not the console for Mother. She is turning the cooling system off which will lead to the detonation of the engines. This is why she is given 5 minutes before the self destruct is unstoppable. Past a certain point, turning the cooling system back on will not be sufficeint to stop the meltdown of the engines. As for the matter of not having authority, there is such a thing as poetic license but also maybe she is now the only person authorised to detonate the engines after other senior crew members have been killed. But more importantly, who is anyone to say that she needs someone else to authorise the self destruct? Surely only Weyland Yutani have any involvement in those decisions. - LazyGit

• The amount of alien slime on Dallas's hand changes between shots.

• The star's in the background are usually the same, implying they only had 2 curtains.

• During the conversation about Brett being a parrot, the length of his cigarette constantly changes.

• When the alien first starts to bust through John Hurt's chest, there's a quick squirt of blood. You can see the blood packet under Hurt's shirt. (Widescreen) - Soulman

• When Kane, Dallas, and Lambert are in their spacesuits exploring the alien ship, all are wearing white/gray fabric voers on their heads under the domes of their helmets. These are like the "communication carriers" or "Snoopy hats" worn by Apollo and later astronauts. But when Kane's helmet is cut off in the sick bay, no Snoopy hat--- and there was absolutely no way it could have been removed with the "facehugger" alien on his head. - xentrick

• (Continuity) When doing the autopsy, Clemens's bloodstain frequently changes. - The Big J

• (Plot holes) At one point in the film the crew manages to seal off a part of the space they are inhabiting. This would mean that the alien should have no longer have been a threat to them because it was on the other side of the barrier they created. Yet somehow the alien still is able to get to them. Were there two aliens? Doubtful... - Jadam

• In the scene where the guns are ejected from the actors sleeve, the camera changes for two seconds and you can see the same actor with his arms straight down at his side, now am I wrong??? - Les

• At the end of the movie, as the huge "Auriga" spaceship is approaching Earth, notice that Earth is backwards--- Africa is obviously pointing in the wrong direction, as if the image has been reversed. - xentrick

• (Revealing mistakes) At the beginning of the movie, when the doctor is examining Ripley, the instrument he is holding is a "Posner Gonioscope", supposed to be placed in contact with the eye and examined through a slit lamp. Being an ophthalmologist myself, I burst into laughter after seeing this scene. The apparently had NO CLUE what this instrument was about!

• One contrast with the actual incident: In the movie, at the end, there were 17 survivors, where as in actuality, there were 16. - JP

• In one scene the World War One-soldiers are transported by trucks. One of the trucks is from about 1930 or later. - Olav Westerman
  • Info: WW I ended in 1918, so that makes the truck at least 12 years ahead of its time.

• (Anachronism) When Penny Lane boards the Eastern Airline plane, a "winglet" on the tip of the wing is clearly visible as the plane is moving away from the terminal. "Winglets" became popular after the first non-stop flight around the world and airplane manufacturers began adding them to commercial planes. This milestone in flight and the subsequent appearance of winglets on commercial airplanes occurred long after Eastern Airlines ceased to exist. - Andrew Dufresne

• When the band is coming to NYC you can see the Citicorp center in the background years before the building was built. - hifijohn

• When Russell and William are walking down the street before they get picked up (and Russell drops acid) the Volkswagen that picks them up pulls up numerous times in the different shots of the scene. - katie

• When William is looking through the albums his sister left him, all the albums are time appropriate except one. Joni Mitchell's Blue came out about half a decade later than the other ones. (VHS/DVD) - Haley

• When Alex Cross is trying to break into a computer, near the end of the film, we get to read the password as he types it in. Excuse me, but I've never seen a system, yet, that does not protect passwords with asterisks (*****)! - Kieth Moreland

• In the first scene on the boat, when Mr. Sonji is watching the news, the newscaster describes Megan Rose as 12 years old, 3'5" , and 52 pounds. My 4 year old is 4 feet tall and 48 pounds. You do the math. (DVD) - Leslie

• (plot holes) I believe this is a goof, and accidental. During the "chase" scene, Morgan Freeman is receiving instructions over the phone. He is told to go to Pennsylvania, and 6th (street corner) He radios it over to the girl following him in the car. Once there, he is told to go to Madison and 12th. The girl meets him there, though he never told her where he was going. Since she was in a car in traffic, and he was running on the sidewalk, I don't think she was following him. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think it's a goof. - bootsy_girl13

  • Comment: When they use two different phone numbers in the movie, one is their home number, and the one on the real estate sign is most likely her business number. I don't know many real estate agents who put their home number on their signs. - Lisa

In the seen at the end of the movie when the white kid gets shot he has a paper in his hand. When he is falling down the paper flies out of his hand. Then it shows a close up of him on the ground and the paper is magically back in his hand. - HeyZues Explanation: In the original script, after the boy shot Danny, he picked up the paper and read it, got a different perspective and was overcome with guilt, which is why he put it back in Danny's hand after he shot him. Still a goof in the actual movie, and maybe you've heard this before, but thought I would add it in. - gummoboy In the scene where the kid is having a meeting with the principal you can see the mic in the reflection of the picture behind the principal's head. - Bo
