The world of the image is a fascinating world that has the power to dazzle us in static compositions such as photographs or photomontages and also dynamic ones such as films from the film industry. But the techniques and especially the professionals are not infallible. At least not in most of the cases.
In a previous post, we saw some unforgivable mistakes with Photoshop and I wanted to do a little review in film version. No work or person is exempt from the possibility of making mistakes. Not even those films that have been awarded with the best honors such as nominations for the Oscars. Here I bring you a sample that the biggest are also wrong.
American Pie: The mug held by the girl with Stifer changes color from one shot to another, but that's not the only mistake in this movie as the following video shows:
Pretty Woman: Costumes, positions and even the model of a limousine change from one plane to another…. You do not believe it? Look at this video:

Pirates of the Caribbean: Accumulate more than 200 errors, including the appearance of electronic devices, modern tattoos or equipment technicians in the middle of the scene.

gravity: It is one of the films of the year thanks to the seven Oscars it has won, but no matter how good it also contains gaffes. There is a dramatic scene in which Sandra Bulloc bursts into tears. As his character is in space, one of his tears ends up floating towards the camera, and it is certainly a beautiful and poetic image but it is false. And it is that in space tears do not float freely as the Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield demonstrated in a video he recorded. In the video you can see perfectly how the water sticks to the astronaut's face, forming a ball that gets bigger and bigger as more water is added. And it is that the tears would not float in the air, they would remain stuck to the skin.
Gladiator: Hundreds of contextualization errors appear, clocks, technicians ... and even in one scene you can see the gas propellants that the horse carriages have incorporated, don't you believe it? look:
The witches of Zagarramurdi: It has been a box office success and has also won eight goya awards, but as much as we like Álex de la Iglesia, he also screwed up. And there is a very serious error in one of the scenes in this film, where Mario Casas appears with paint stains on his face when he is in a car. The paint on his nose appears and disappears during the six minutes of the scene and the more than thirty changes of plane.
Spider-Man: It contains more than a hundred errors, including a surprising one. A marginal character carries a gun, in the next shot he carries a knife in that same hand, and in the next shot he carries a gun again… Anyway, here you have more errors from this movie:
The day of the Dead: In the final sequence, the same zombie appears in two different places. A zombie wearing a football shirt with the number 22 on it. We see him entering the shelter of "the good guys" through the main entrance, but at the same time (in the next shot) we see him entering the other end of the den. The same zombie at the same time in two different places, you have to see what they did in the horror movies of the 80s to save budget ...
Finding Nemo: Algae that grow in a matter of seconds, posters that appear and disappear or scars that disappear from one plane to another ...
Forrest Gump: Jenny shows Forrest a newspaper clipping from September 1982, however Jenny's grave shows that she died on March 22, 1982.
The orphanage: When Laura falls on the beach, you can easily see how she breaks her right leg. However, at the hospital they bandaged his left.
