Aliens indeed - just before the alien ship crashed in the Life of Brian.

I was watching some low budget King Arthur movie the other day and one of the characters says "It will be a blast". The fact that gunpowder won't get to Europe for couple hundred more years hit me on a 2 second delay.

Been several movies where the phrase "lock, stock, and barrel" was used hundreds of years before guns were invented.

I remember going to the theater to watch "Presumed Innocent" starring Harrison Ford. At the end, when he was being interviewed leaving the court, I jumped off my seat and screamed, "There's no tape in the microcassette recorder!" Everyone started laughing... But what the hey? How do they miss something so blatantly obvious?!

Or watching "The Ten Commandments" and listening to Edgar G. Robinson, playing an Egyptian, but sounding like a wise-guy...

Geeks only truly argue about Luke Skywalker's use of the word parsec.

They'd most likely argue that Han Solo—not Luke Skywalker—is the one with the "less than twelve parsecs" line.

I know the guy who drove Bond's Mustang and it was really his wife's car. Buzz drove the car from Tampa to Vegas, did the stunt, got the check, and drove home!

My stunts looked more like the cop car, but I would try to ski it on two wheels for a while and one time I wiped out the clown's car.

Not an error, but I was surprised when I saw "Star Wars" that Han Solo's sidearm was based on an 1896 Mauser Broomhandle, the first viable semi-automatic sidearm.

By mid-1960, there would have been Boeing 707, Boeing 720, Convair 880, Douglas DC-8, DeHavilland Comet and Sud Aviation Caravelle jet airliners creating contrails in addition to numerous military planes.

I think there ar we scenes in Ben Hur where you can see wristwatches...

Which is actually a misquote (but you knew that). The actual line is "Yonda lies da palace of my fodda da caliph," IIRC. It's from "Son of Ali Baba."

Gotta love Tony Curtis.

Nonono, it's right there in the Hall of Famous Movie Quotations, next to "Play it again, Sam" and "Judy, Judy, Judy!"

In Back to the Future Marty McFly shreds at the high school dance on a Gibson ES 335, a guitar that came out in 1958, three years after the dance.
