Hackers

When the "Hackers" are in the airport trying to throw off the police, they tape the receivers of the phones together to stop them from tracing the call. The only thing is that they taped the ear piece of one to the ear piece of the other. That wouldn't work - it would have to be the ear piece to the mouth piece.

When they visit Lord Nikon the night before Joey gets arrested, they are watching the cop on TV getting interviewed by the reporter. The only thing is this interview is the same one that gets shot the next morning when Joey is being arrested. The news shows the arrest before it actually happens.

Halloween

At the very beginning, Michael Myers' sister and her boyfriend "go upstairs." Michael then sneaks around the house, picks up a knife, and follows them. As he is about to go upstairs, his sister's boyfriend leaves. He then proceeds upstairs, and finds his sister nude. The actual time elapsed from proposition to his exit is about one minute and fifty seconds. Is this really enough time to go upstairs, get undressed, go about your business, and get dressed again?

At the end, Dr. Loomis shoots Michael Myers in the chest seven times with his six-shooter.

Michael Myers escapes from prison when he is 21. He is able to drive a car even though he has been incarcerated since childhood. Where did he learn to flawlessly drive a car during those years?

Even though the story is set in Haddonfield IL, all of the cars have California license plates.

After Linda and Bob are done talking to Laurie on the phone, when Linda starts to walk you can see her stumble on something on the floor. In the long shots there is nothing there - it's probably a wire from the filming.

When Laurie is in the closet she stabs Michael with the knife and leaves it up there. When they show all the locations at the end of the movie, in the shot of the living room look near the floor up close - you can see part of the knife there, even though it was left upstairs.

When Annie is taking her clothes off, her underwear is a solid colour, but in the laundry room it is polka-dotted.

When Laurie is walking home the sidewalk instantly goes from wet to dry.

There is a scene that's supposed to take place at 6pm and it's still very light out. At the end of October, it's dark by 5 pm.

Halloween 2

In the credits, Michael Myers is said to be 24. However, the fact that he is supposed to be 21 in both films (because #2 took place directly after the first) is stated in both movies.

Hamlet (Kenneth Branagh)

Hamlet is killed and in the next scene is being carried with his arms stiff to his sides. The men carrying him go over a bump, jolting Hamlet, and he blinks.

When Ophelia's coffin lid is being torn off by her grief-stricken brother, she blinks, ever so slightly...

The Hand that Rocks the Cradle

There is a scene where Marlene is frantically driving. They show her from the side without a cigarette and without any cigarette in either of her hands. then they show out the front windshield so that you can just see her empty hands holding the steering wheel. When they cut back to her a face she has a miracle cigarette in her mouth.

Hang 'em high

While Clint Eastwood is walking into a saloon (or maybe a jail) you can see the cameraman and director's shadow on the ground.

Happy Gilmore

In the final round, when Happy and Shooter McGavin are about to tee off on the first hole, they show a picture of the 18th green with the Volkswagen Beetle already crashed into the TV tower. However, this doesn't happen until Happy gets hit by the car later in the game.

The gold putter Happy gets from Chubbs keeps changing brand names.

In the beginning of the movie he is not taken onto the hockey team. After he is hustling at the driving range he goes to toughen up. As he is toughening up, Chubbs unplugs the machine. The kid tries it, but he never plugged it back in and the machine still manages to work.

In at least one scene, you can see the ruts that the filmmakers made in the greens to make Happy's putts go where they wanted them to.

When Happy is trying out for the hockey team, he sends a slapshot in front of the coaches and it breaks the glass. In the next scene the glass is intact.

When they are playing in the Micholob Invitational, Shooter McGavin's caddy is wearing the vest for the Visa Everglades Open. The flag (in the hole) also shows this same event. They play another tournament before they get to the Everglades.

Heart and Souls

When the bus is coming to pick up Alfre Woodard as she is finally meeting her son, we see Robert Downey, Jr. briefly touch her on the shoulder. Since she's a soul, this is impossible.

Heartbreak Ridge

In the movie, after the invasion of Granada, when Clint Eastwood is directing Mario Van Peebles to get on the bulldozer, he is seen moving the selector on his M16 from "safe" to "auto". Just after Van Peebles gets on the bulldozer, he again moves the selector from "safe" to "auto".

Heat

At the end when there is gunfire in the streets, Robert DeNiro's sunglasses appear on and off his face a few times, but he clearly has no time to put them there.

In the shootout scene in the streets of downtown L.A., the driver of the getaway car is killed when shot in the head by a single bullet. In the shot prior to this event, the bullet hole in the windshield appears prior to the shot being fired.

The millions they stole, even in $100 bills, would be to bulky to fit in the duffel bags they ran off with.

Hello Dolly!

In the opening scene of the film, when the sepia toned picture of Old New York turns fluidly into a moving image, you can see a window air conditioner in the top left hand corner of the screen.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth

In this film, The Pinhead Cenobite's objectives are stated. He wishes to destroy the box that can send him back to hell, and stay on Earth. At the beginning of the first Hellraiser, Pinhead, after poking through the remains of Frank, solves the box himself, and sends himself, along with the other Cenobites, back to Hell. Why does he want to stay all of a sudden?

The new Cenobites made from Joey's friends can remember exactly who they were, and even conversations that they've had before the transformation, yet at the end of the second Hellraiser, Pinhead doesn't remember who he is until Kirsty hands him a picture of his former self, and gives the Cenobites a lecture.

Pinhead is able to return to earth in the form of a statue. This is supposed to be the same statue as the one that rose up out of the mattress at he very end of the second Hellraiser, but that statue was made of wood, and was covered with living images of Hell, while the statue in this film is about four feet taller, and now made of solid stone or marble.

When Joey's television set is flipping through the channels all by itself, on one of the channels is an interview with Tony Hickox, the director of the film.

Also, after the television is through telling Joey of the carnage at the club through the newscast, there's a pan to her floor, showing that it's unplugged. Does Joey unplug her T.V. every time it's not in use?

At one point, Pinhead pulls nails from his head. These nails not only miraculously grow back, but are much longer than the ones we saw hammered in at the beginning of the second Hellraiser.

One of the chains reaches from the sewer and grabs Joey by the sweater during the chase scene. Every time the chains are used in the other films, they are incredibly accurate. One grabs Frank by the hand, as he grabs for Kirsty in the first film, and another effectively blocks Kirsty's way in the second, but now they can only grab Joey's sweater.

There is a church scene. The church that scene was filmed in wouldn't allow them to film the movie, so the crew had to break into the church late at night.

Her Alibi

In one scene Tom Selleck and Paulina Poro....something are riding down a highway in a convertible. Behind them are these huge, bright, obvious yellow/orange holding tanks in a waterfront area. These are Baltimore landmarks along Interstate 395. The film's set in New York or LA (anyone know which?).

There's a scene in the movie where Nina is outside in the pool and Philip is inside his house looking at her. He begins to walk outside just when his house is engulfed in a huge explosion. At the end of the movie (apparently little time has passed) Nina goes back to Philip's house and snoops around on his computer. Also, there's a love scene towards the end of the movie in what was an exploded house. I guess the director overlooked the huge explosion....

Hercules

When Hercules punches that blue horse guy that's holding Meg, at least 5 horseshoes fly after him, but only 4 come back down.

When he sees Meg in the river of death, he reaches down and touches it. Then, when he jumps in, he makes a dive of at least 50 feet.

When Hercules first visits the Temple of Zeus, he is carrying a pack. When he leaves the temple, he is no longer carrying it, and it's nowhere to be seen.

This is a Greek legend, so why do they use Roman numerals?

Hercules is the Roman name for the hero Heracles, but they use the Greek names of the gods.

If they are in Greece B.C., why are they singing about the "Gospel truth"?

How could Meg sell her soul to the lord of the underworld if they believed that EVERYONE went to the underworld when they died?

Why didn't the Lord of the Underworld know that Hercules wasn't dead?

There is a scene where Hercules is being painted on the side of a vase or something. Hercules is wearing a lionskin - when he throws the lionskin down, if you look carefully, you can see that the lionskin is made out of Scar, from the Lion King.

High Noon

This film supposedly takes place at noon, but the shadows vary greatly in direction and size.

High Road to China

In a shot where Tom Selleck rolls his plane upside down to dump the Afghan at several thousand feet altitude, you plainly see stationary tree tops at the bottom of the frame.

Highlander

There is NO invisible magic power lifting Christopher Lambert in air at the end - there are two wires clearly fixed on his shoulders.

In the end, when Conner is receiving the prize, you can see a car battery at his feet, that was hooked up to the swordsman to produce the sparks when the swords clashed.

In the scene when the Kurgan has been shot by the paramilitary mortal in the alleyway, Kurgan makes his getaway by taking
possession of a green Chevelle, with an old woman still inside. As the movie cuts to the car emerging from the alley at high speed, it is no longer a green 70's Chevelle, but is now a green duster.

Hocus Pocus

There is a scene when Max and his girlfriend are awakening from their slumber to a room filled with early morning
sunlight, but when they open Winifred's magic book, and the beam of light shoots from the rooftop, it is clearly still before dawn.

Home Alone

When Joe Pesci places his hand on the red hot doorknob on the front door of Kevin's house, he places his hand on the doorknob sideways, but after he sticks his hand in the snow, he looks at his hand and the letter M that was burned into his hand is straight up and down, not sideways like it should be based on how he grabbed the doorknob.

When Kevin is home alone, the phone lines are broken, so how could he order the pizza from Little Nero's?

Home Alone 2

In the first film, Kevin says that he's 8 years old at the checkout counter in the grocery store. However, in this film at the hotel counter scene, he says he's 10. When his parents are in the Miami airport security office, they say that he was left alone last Christmas. That would make him 9.

When Kevin is throwing bricks from the top of the apartment note the position of the gym bag beside Marv - it is in the wrong place during one of the cutaway scenes between Marv and Kevin.

Home Alone 3

At one point, the mother gets an audible page. When she looks at the display to see the number, you can clearly see that the pager is set to "silent."

Home for the Holidays

After Claudia arrives at her parents house, her dad goes for a piece of pie. In one shot, he has a big mound of whipped cream on top of the pie, in the next shot it has gone way down, and in the last shot it's still a smaller size.

When all the guys are out in the yard playing football, Tommy says that his team was winning 59-0, but a couple of minutes pass by and he says the score is 34-0.

At Thanksgiving dinner when the turkey is spilled on her head. In one scene she is wet. The next scene she is dry again and then the next scene she is wet again.

Honey I Shrunk The Kids

Wouldn't someone's glasses break or at least crack if he was thrown at a high speed off of a bee's back, and beat back several times by an ant like Nick's? Yet they are not even scratched by the end of the movie.

Hook

Captain Hook launches a knife from his sleeve into his palm during the final showdown. Everyone acts shocked and surprised and afraid. Why? All of The Lost Boys and Peter Pan took on an army of nasty pirates with swords, and now they're all afraid of one small, tired Captain Hook with a knife?

After finding his son hit a home run in the game with the pirates, Peter decides he must learn how to fly. The ball his son hit comes flying from the sky and hits Peter in the head, knocking him over. When he hits the ground, he is lying on grass, but one second later he opens his eyes on grey rock.

Hot Shots!

When Dead Meat has crashed, and Washout's parachute is lying on the road, the ambulance runs over it. In the first shot, the ambulance clearly runs completely over it without catching the parachute at all. In the next shot we see the ambulance hooking the parachute and dragging Washout along the road.

Houseguest

When Sinbad is finished playing basketball against some boys, he is standing there with the ball in his left hand. It then switches to his right hand, and this continues throughout the sequence as the point of view changes.

When Sinbad almost misses the exit on the way home from the airport, you can see another red vehicle crossing over the grass behind them.

The Hunt for Red October

When the Political Officer reads the orders, they're supposed to test the silent drive and return home "on or about the 16th of this month..." shortly afterwards, Jack Ryan is briefing Jeffrey Pelt, and asks "isn't it the 23rd"

In the opening scene of the movie, the Red October is being escorted out of the Russian harbour by a United States Coast Guard Cutter and U.S. Navy sea tugs.

Hush

At least two time during the movie, there are severe lighting changes.
