Scorpion King .

When the guards go into the cave to find The Rock, and after the guy says “stay on the rocks” they show the feet walking along the rocks. One of the guys is clearly wearing white laces in his shoes. The other is wearing leather laces.

When the Scorpion King kills warriors with his sword (the cave with the quicksand is a good example), there is absolutely not a trace of blood on his sword. His sword gets raised above his head looking like it’s just been polished.

Towards the end of the film, when the Rock walks into the rebel camp, you can clearly see a camera man in a white t-shirt and black cap. You see him crawling towards the Scorpion King.

When the Rock pulls the arrow out of his back there is no blood on it.

All swords in this movie are made from steel, and in the beginning it’s said that the film takes place years before the Pyramids were built (they were built around 3200 BC). Steel wouldn’t have been around for thousands of years.

One of the first times you see Balthazar (Michael Clarke Duncan) you can clearly see the adhesive for the fake scar on his right cheek and that it is coming loose.

When The Rock falls down the water hole with the sorceror he drops his sword. But when he is fighting with the king’s army he has the exact same sword. How did he get his sword back?

After the chief of the army (Ralf Moeller) is killed, he reappears as a guard, walking down the palace-stairs with another guard and is only disguised with a artificial, cheap, black mustache on his face.

Near the beginning when he shoots the arrow and goes down a zipwire you can clearly see the wheel under the chain, also the chain is not bending as he goes down.

When there are in the desert and the bad guys go into a cave, the angle changes and you see two sets of rocks, then several men fall into quicksand. When their leader “says stay on the rocks” the shot changes, and more sets of rocks appear.

When the Rock is launched out of the catapult, he is shot out of the window and lands in another room in the castle. A few shots later, the catapult is shown again but it is in the cocked position. The scientist was busy with his gunpowder and avoiding the guards – he wouldn’t have re-set it, surely?

After Matathyus (The Rock) finishes fighting with Balthazar (Michael Clarke Duncan), Balthazar is sort of sitting down while Matathyus is standing. You see blood all over Balthazar’s mouth. Then the shot goes back and forth between Matathyus and Balthazar three times. Each time there’s not the same amount of blood in Balthazar’s mouth.

In the very beginning of the movie, when Mathayus rescues Jesup, he fires several arrows at Jesup’s would-be executioners, and the targets of these arrows fly backward, across the room, and smash out the side of the building. I don’t think I need to go into a detailed discussion of physics on this.
 

Lord of the Rings 1.

Watch them run through long grass. Look in the grass… The Hobbits are wearing shoes! But throughout the rest of the movie, they’re barefoot.

When Gandalf and Saruman are talking at one point Gandalf is holding his staff and he has a leather strap around his finger, then it cuts to Saruman then when it cuts back to Gandalf the strap is gone.

After the battle with the cave troll, Aragorn rushes over to the injured Frodo and brushes past some large rocks which wobble, showing that they are clearly lightweight and not real.

The hobbit guys are smaller than the rest of the characters. Fine. But in some scenes, it’s obvious that they used either children or little people to complete the effect. In one scene, Bilbo shakes hands with Gandalf and you can see Gandalf’s larger hands are fake.

In some scenes Frodo has a zit, and in some scenes he doesn’t. When the fellowship is rowing down river Anduin, you can clearly see Frodo’s got a spot on his chin covered with makeup. When they row ashore, it’s gone.

When Frodo is taken to Rivendell, he is lying in bed with Gandalf sitting next to the bed watching over him. When Frodo is just waking up and starts to lean up, you can clearly see the ring on the chain. The camera switches to Gandalf, and then back to Frodo, but the ring and chain are gone. All you see is the bandage.

Some where in the scenes when the ugly pig people are attacking everyone in the forest… Legolas shots an arrow and then goes for another one, but he can’t reach it! It cuts to the next scene very quickly so you have to watch closely.

When a meeting is held in Rivendell and the ring is placed in the center, the dwarf gets up and hits the ring with his axe, breaking his axe into pieces on the table in the center. Then the broken axe pieces disappear. But then suddenly, they reappear!

When Aragorn bows over the dying Boromir there’s a pretty clear goof you can see for several times. When the shot is from behind Aragorn, Boromir has his hand on Aragorn’s shoulder, when you see them from the side, Boromir’s right hand is lying flat down on the ground.

In the shots just before Frodo tries to leave by himself for Mordor the tears on his face swap sides for no reason.
