Sandlot

After Smalls hits his home run one of the kids throws his glove behind him when he is trying to take it off and a kid behind him catches with a surprised look on his face. You may have to slow the film down to see this.

When Tim Allen first puts on the Santa suit, and goes into the house where the little girl is laying on the couch waiting for him, they talk. She has her two front teeth missing. The next year when he is really Santa, he goes back to her house, and she is waiting on the couch for him again, she still has the same two front teeth missing.

Travolta's friends pick him up with the car to go to 2000 odyssey. The roads are wet. When they reach the end of the block the roads are dry.

Saving Private Ryan

This is a complete guess, based on a short glimpse during an interview. Am I right in saying that the guy who played Eddie in Friends and the guy who played Phoebe's brother in Friends are both in this film?

When they go to find Private Ryan there are 8 of them, when they go to a German town and the guy picks up the little girl and he gets killed there are 7, right? Wrong. A few scenes later they show all 8 of them marching on to the next town, only in a far away camera shot so its hard to see.

Scent of a Woman

In the scene where Charlie and Colonel meet, the level of whiskey in the glass held by Al Pacino goes down and then up again.

Scream

See No Evil, Hear No Evil

There is a scene with Richard Pryor crouched in a corner being shot at by bad guys. A statue behind him is hit and shattered. In the next shot, it's standing there like nothing ever happened.

Set it Off

I guess Jada Pinkett had the same hairstylist for this movie as she did for "The Nutty Professor". When she goes to visit Blair Underwood at his home you can clearly see that her braids are either latch hooked or just a wig.

Se7en

Throughout the film, the guys dress like the weather's cold. (sweaters, jackets, trenchcoats) Later on, when they're out in the field, a character says that it's 7:00 and it's still sunny, like it's summer.

When Brad and Morgan are driving in the rain, it's raining a lot on one side of the car but it's barely sprinkling on the other side.

When they are in the car with heavy rain, you can see the pedestrians are NOT using umbrellas or wearing raincoats.

Sloth has three arms.

In the scene at the end, where they are taking Kevin Spacey to the desert in the car, when you see the back seat, there is a screen separating it from the front, but in another shot, there is no screen.

When Sommerset and Mills go to the safety house to show the lawyer's wife the pictures of the crime scene, Mills arrives there completely wet, but Sommerset is absolutely dry. Both of them got there walking.

In the first scene when the girl is walking down the sidewalk she passes by a female zombie wearing a brown shirt twice, and she passes by a male zombie in a blue and white shirt, and a few seconds later he's with a group of zombies that carjacks her in the woods outside of town.

The Shawshank Redemption

When the warden offers Tommy a Marlboro (before he is shot) the pack has Marlboro Miles on the side. Not in 1965 or '66.

When the warden shot himself he shot the middle of his neck but the bullet hole is on the right side.

At the end when Andy escapes, he is wearing the warden's shoes and suit shirt. It is obvious neither would fit a man of Andy's frame.

When Andy is talking to Red for the first time in the yard, Red is playing catch with a few guys. Towards the end of the conversation Red catches the ball twice without throwing it back the first time.

When Andy is carving his name in the wall towards the beginning the "A" is different when they show it at the end.

Shenandoah

In the middle part of the film, as they look out across the field you can see the shadow of a airplane cross the field.

Shine

In the first scene where we see David Hilfgott, there's a mark on his ring finger, probably made by a wedding ring. In that scene David isn't married.

The Shining

At the end of the movie there is the chase scene through the hedge maze in the dead of winter in Colorado. While Jack Nicholson runs after his son in a winter setting you cannot see their breath in what would be the cold night air.

In the scene at the beginning of the film, when Doc and Mr. Halloran are eating ice cream, if you pay attention to Danny's hands, they move from folded in front of the ice cream bowl, to the back, and so on. They move about 5 times, each different.

Shooter

The final chase/fight/shoot-out sequence starts in the Presidential Palace but by the time they are on the roof of the Building they are 3 miles away across the river on the roof of one of the National Theatre.

The Shootist

Showgirls

Right before Nomi is arrested, she is in the club dancing with 3" heels on. When she is in jail you can hear as she walks that she has on heels, but when she leaves she has on slippers.

Near the beginning when Nomi and her female friend (can't remember her name) get a bite to eat, Nomi's friend gets two huge sodas. A few seconds later Nomi puts the straw in and takes a sip, but it makes a noise like it's almost empty.

Silence of the Lambs

In the scene with the ambulance in Memphis, the Tennessee license plate on the ambulance says Davidson County. Memphis is in Shelby County, while Davidson County is Nashville.

In the scene where the elevator comes down with the nearly dead man without a face, there's a microphone hanging down.

Singing in the Rain

When Gene Kelly does his classic singin' in the rain dance scene, it's only raining in the front half of the shot. In long shots, you can see that the back part of the scene is enjoying clear weather.

Sink the Bismarck

Near  the end of the film  the planes from the carrier Ark Royal make a mistake and attack the British cruiser "Sheffield" instead of the Bismarck.   After the pilots realise their mistake and head home the film cuts to the captain of the Sheffield where he mouths the words "mother f***ing b***ards". 

Six Days, Seven Nights

It usually doesn't snow on a sunny day in New York.

Sixteen Candles

When the family is getting into the car to go to the wedding one grandmother says to the other "let me in". The grandmother gets out to let the other grandmother in but the first grandmother never gets back in the car, she just pretends to. You can see her hiding behind the cars as it backs down the drive. Both grandmothers are in the car when they see Lond Duc Dong on the lawn.

They make the point that Ted can't take the prom queen home in Jake's car because he does not know how to drive a stick shift (Jake's Porsche) so Ted takes her home in Jake's dad's Rolls-Royce. Later in the movie when Jake shows up at the wedding, you can see that the Porsche is an automatic as he shifts it into drive.

Slapshot

Sleeping with the Enemy

In the final confrontation Julia Roberts has a Heckler and Koch semiauto - she shoots five times and it runs out of ammo. Unlikely as the semiauto used carries many more shots.

Sleepstalker

When the white boy is standing outside the car talking to the gangbanger inside the car, the gangster's sunglasses disappear depending on the camera angle.

Sliding Doors

In one scene when Gwyneth Paltrow's character has short hair, she is talking to John Lynch. As the camera cuts between her and Lynch, her fringe alternates from being held behind her ear to hanging down her face.

Sliver

We can see William Baldwin looking at Sharon Stone in her bathroom through his fixed cameras. But, sometimes the camera is tracking her round.

Smokey & The Bandit

Sheriff Buford T. Justice gets out of his car and leaves the door open. A few moments later, we see a different shot of the car with the door closed. Then a truck drives by and tears the car door off which is open again.

Snake Eyes

The original ending planned was a massive tropical storm/water based chase scene. However, this was decided to be too expensive, and was switched for a cheaper, and some say weaker ending. Nonetheless, in Nicholas Cage's final speech, he says "I keep thinking about that tunnel, and what would have happened if I'd drowned." This makes no sense, given that in the new ending he came nowhere near a tunnel or drowning.

In the end, where the cops attempt to arrest Gary Sinise's character, look closely at his back near his left shoulder. There is a device jutting out under his shirt, which is used to create the effect of the bullet shot when he kills himself.

Sneakers

Martin walks really slowly in the room where the box is so as not to be caught by the motion sensor while some dog sharks are swimming quickly in the fish tank behind him without being caught by the sensor.

Towards the end where they steal the chip, they are detected and about a million security guards are all running around, yet 30 seconds later, the ONLY security guard is ONE MAN with a shotgun. What happened to their big army of security guards?

Soapdish

When Sally Field asks which apartment, she's told 2D. She goes to apartment 2A, and finds the guy she's looking for.

Somewhere In Time

When Christopher Reeve is looking backstage for the amazing Elise McKenna, we see a number of plywood stage items. Set in 1912, this action predates the invention of plywood - 1933. There are also extruded aluminium door controllers on many doors.

There are cars at the Grand Hotel - Chris drives up to it. They never show the ferry to Mackinaw Island, the site of the Grand Hotel.

Aged Elise McKenna presents college student with pocket watch in 1974. Student (Reeves) takes pocket watch back to Elise McKenna in 1912, and she keeps it her whole life to give back to him in 1974. Who made the watch - where did it come from?

Reeves' character tells McKenna's agent that he is a playwright who has seen his work published - yet this memory doesn't throw him back to his own time; he has to see a penny to be snapped away from Elise.

Son in Law

Rebecca and Crawl are flying home from LA to her farm in "South Dakota" for Thanksgiving. However, when the plane lands, her family is standing in front of a sign that says "Wasco." If you look at a map, you'll see that Wasco California is just outside Bakersfield, which is a mere hour and a half drive north of LA.

The family lives in South Dakota, and Becca goes off to college in Los Angeles. Yet when Becca and Crawl "Fly Home" for thanksgiving, and the family is waiting at the airport, if you look behind the family you see the airport sign says "Wasco." If you look it up on a map, Wasco California is just outside of Bakersfield, about 2 hours north of Los Angeles.

Sophie's Choice

There is a long scene wherein Meryl Streep is sitting in a bay window going on about something. When we first see her, her eyes are brown. Moments later, they are blue. At the end of the scene they are brown again.

The Sound of Music

At the end of the do-re-mi number, as Maria and the children are going up the stairs at the end of the song, Kurt still has his mouth open, even though the song has finished.

In the scene in the beginning when Julie Andrews is singing the "I have confidence" song in front of the Von Trapp house, if you look at the tree while she is singing there is a person's shadow running by it.

Gretel, the youngest girl, is five years old. Captain Von Trapp's wife died seven years earlier. How could Gretel have been born if her mother wasn't alive?

While they're on the carriage in the Do-re-me scene, the oldest Vontrap girl isn't singing even though the song is still going. It's on the right of the screen.

Spaceballs

When Dark Helmet is talking about coffee and radar, one of the men working on the ship grabs himself before everyone else.

When we see Snotty pleading with President Scroob about the beam, he has a Scottish accent. True, it's bad, but it's present. When he speaks again, his accent is gone.

Space Jam

In the scene where Bugs Bunny is trying to get Michael Jordan down the golf hole, he loses a shoe. But when he is on the court with the Toon Squad, he has shoes again. In Loony Tune Land, you cannot get shoes.

In the scene where the Tune Squad players are being introduced to the crowd, the announcer says that Daffy Duck is number four. But when Daffy comes out, you can clearly see that he is number two.

Space Oddessy

When the ship's computer and one of the crew members are playing chess, the computer stated a mate in 2, which is not true. It's mate in 3.

Spartacus

If you look at the legions of Roman soldiers at just about any point in the film, they're wearing wristwatches and trainers.

In the scene where she drives the car (with the kidnapped woman in it) down the hill towards the breaker/electrical box, when she hops out at the very last second you can clearly see a person dressed all in black sitting in the driver's seat driving the car down the hill.

Species 2

If the female alien (Natasha Hensridge) is supposed to be secluded from men then why does she have a television that show shows with men?? In the chase scene the female scientist says that her favourite show is "Dukes of Hazard"... MEN!!

All the children that are born... where do they get their clothes so fast? They all must shop in the exact same place as well!

The rape scene in the parking lot... there is no one around for THAT long? But wait, once the detectives come in the scene two people are walking in the background with a shopping cart - they must have seen something!

One scene we are in the alien's (when she is still normal) living space and we can hear through a speaker everything the scientist is saying...wouldn't the alien pick up that something was happening and do something before...?

Speechless

In one scene Geena Davis is repairing Michael Keaton's car. She has dirty hands. Then her boss drives by. She talks to him with a clean face and the next shot, she has oil or something on her face.

Speed

Sphere

The scientists in the water base make a mistake when creating an algorithm that decodes a code sent by the Sphere, and mistake two letters (H and A) for another two (J and E). But that would still screw around with any other word using those letters. For example, a message reading:
HELLO. MY NAME IS JERRY was actually, with the right letters:
HELLO. MY NAME IS HARRY (The H and A were switched with the J and E), But the message would have read:
JALLO. MY NEMA IS JERRY (or whatever, but you get the idea) if the letters were switched properly.

Spy Hard

In the scene near the end of the film Leslie Nielsen"s character gets out of a Volkswagen Beetle. When he opens the car door to get out, you can see the reflection of the cameraman and some crew members.

There is a boom mike clearly visible in the billiard scene.

There are 1980's cars visible in the background at the junk yard.

Teddy's hair changes in every shot after being dunked in the swamp.

A reflection of a camera tripod can be seen in Teddy's glasses when Teddy and Chris are arguing on the railroad tracks.

The Topps baseball card in Denny's room was not available until after the film was set.

The amount of blueberries and sauce of Lardass Davey Hogan's face before he vomits changes from shot to shot.

There are aluminium cans in the general store. These weren't used at the time the film was set.

Stargate

All through the movie, when you gets shots of the guys on the other planet, if you look at their sunglasses you see the white boards and film crew's reflection.

After the girl is killed, James Spider puts her in the regeneration unit. Just before the lid closes, you can see her eyelid flicker.

Starship Troopers

The main character's ex-girlfriend has her ship blown apart by an alien when it's approaching one of their planets. When the chief is evacuating along with the rest of the ship, a door closing from the roof crushes her. MY GARAGE DOOR IS SMARTER THAN THAT! It knows when there's something in the way. You'd think by the future, they'd have evolved even past this. The door should never have closed on her. [Wrong! Military doors don't care who's in the way - they close regardless, because it's better to kill one person in the door than allow everyone on board to die]

Star Trek Films

Star Wars

Steel Magnolias

In the scene where Julia Roberts' character is getting a manicure before her kidney transplant, she sets her arm up on the table. The camera cuts away and the next shot of her shows her putting her arm on the table, again.

When Julia Roberts' character dies, Darryl Hannah's character is pregnant and Julia Roberts' son is 3 or 4. At Easter, Darryl Hannah goes into labour - only a few months later - but the son has aged to 7 years old or something. It even says his different ages in the credits.

When the car trunk lid gets slammed down on all the coloured Easter eggs (outside Truvy's house/salon) and the group re-opens the trunk to survey the damage, they see dozens of smashed RAW eggs. Easter eggs are hard boiled before they're coloured.

The Sting

Just before the sting goes down, the assassin and the bodyguard are shown preparing their weapons. Both place largish suppressers (aka "silencers") on their guns. Both of them are using revolvers. Except for a few, rare models built specifically for the purpose, revolvers can't be effectively suppressed. There is a gap between the cylinder and the barrel that allows some of the expanding gasses and accompanying noise to escape before they can be affected by a suppresser on the end of the barrel. This is one of the most common firearms related mistakes in older and period films.

Striking Distance

In the bridge scene, Willis is seen without his crutch as he looks over the bridge at his fallen cousin. They cut to him beside the bridge and he has his crutch.

We see Sarah Jessica Parker well-dressed in red without a bra. When Bruce Willis remove her red robe, she's wearing a bra.

When Harold Ramis pays off his pushup bet with Bill Murray, he throws the dollar bills onto Bill Murray's chest, and they move around and their number changes.

When Bill Murray's girlfriend is leaving him for good, she puts one of her boots on TWICE!

Not only does the position of the duffel bag change from under Murray's head to feet in the cut aways, it switches back and forth several times, and winds up by his side. His knit cap moves on and off his head during the same scene.

Sudden Death

In the last game of the Cup finals Luc Robitalle is on a break away. There is an aerial shot of the ice, showing clearly that Robitalle is the only one on the offensive half of the ice...a true break away if there every was one! Then, there is an ice-level shot, and somehow there are two defencemen that Robitalle has to beat to score.

Summer School

At the end of the show when the kids are taking the test, the girl that is pregnant brakes her pencil in half because she is having contractions but in the next shot her pencil is intact.

Superman IV

Capes of both supermen ruffle when they are on the moon - it must be windy up there.

Superman traps the supervillain (whose power depends on sunlight) inside of an elevator to incapacitate him. Superman then ripped the elevator out of the building. He then plants it on the far side of the moon. Later on, sunlight starts to shine into the elevator through a slit at where the doors meet. The villain of course recharges and comes after Superman again. Now, if light could get through that crack there, then why couldn't it get through when the elevator was ripped out of the building in BROAD DAYLIGHT?

The Sun Man takes the publisher of the newspaper out into space. Humans cannot breathe in outer space. Even if they could, wouldn't she burn up in re-entry?

In the health club, a barbell is handed to Clark Kent. In keeping with his "weakling" persona, Clark lurches forward from the weight of the barbell and falls on his face. In the next scene, he is getting up from his BACK.
