Sean Parker: You know what's cooler than a million dollars?

Eduardo Saverin: You?

Sean Parker: A billion dollars.

And I'm not paying a dime until they start producing bug-free movies.

I mean how hard can it be? It's not that the stuff they are producing is interactive.

Yes, I can (lower picture)

You did a web-search on your parent and just copy-and-pasted from here, didn't you? You're a despicably cheap person, but I guess you need your karma back, right?

Which means that Boondock Saints narrowly beats it with 246.

D'uh...... but TV told me that tritium was dangerous... it's what Dr. Octavius uses in Spiderman 2 to explode things... uhhh.... TV good, me dumb...

After all, he still have 195 and counting bugs to fix. That means George will do more hacks on HD-DVD/Blu-Ray SWSE++ release.

After all, there are at least 187 errors in the movie. That means we're going to see yet another Star Wars Trilogy update by GL in near future, if he is still alive by then.

I wonder how they will accomplish this considering some of the recent findings about the probable locations of Atlantis.

And the old predictions of the Sleeping Prophet Edgar Cayce, who hasn't always been wrong and hasn't always been right.

Cayce Predictions

There's a lot of facts to consider when making a series like this, but I am sure the people at Stargate will do a great job with continuity.

And will make little to no mistakes.
I hope.
This time.

(but then, with such things as the Garfield movie, Armageddon can only be an improvement.)

But have you seen Armageddon? I think it's a toss up with Garfield.

yeah, well clerks had 10 mistakes!

30 mistakes? Big deal! LOTR 1 has 223. With the same number in LOTR 2 and 131 in LOTR 3. lots of movies do. so what?

The list makes SM2 look pretty good. Pirates of the Caribbean has more than 250 entries.

There are a few more bad science moments in Armageddon if you browse through the whole list at MovieMistakes.com.

How much is it for 50 connections with Oracle?

Most people who use PHP/MySQL use something like mysql_pconnect() to use persistant connection to speed the site up. However, that backfires on you when your site gets heavy load and you run out of connections. There is a warning about this in the PHP docs mysql-pconnect

Using persistent connections can require a bit of tuning of your Apache and MySQL configurations to ensure that you do not exceed the number of connections allowed by MySQL.

A better solution would be a resource pool manager for PHP/MySQL that starts to free the connections when a certain numbers of configurable connections get in the pool to try to help with the infamous "Too many connections in /usr/XXX" MySQL error. Though, in the end, there are only so many connections you can get through a little box. Put the www.moviemistakes.com site on a nice 4-8 way box with the same setup and see how well it can do against Oracle. I am not knocking Oracle, I think it is the best Enterprise class DB out there. It comes down to using the right tool for the right job. Orcale for a dynamic web site is overkill and too expensive. Orcale for financial, e-commerce, data warehousing is a much better fit IMO.

Are you sure it's not been mentioned anywhere?

I think it has...

The first movie was riddled with errors.

Here are the mistakes that fans have picked out for Harry Potter II courtesey of Movie Mistakes:

When Harry and Ron are sitting in the hall doing work and Hermione comes up to them she swings her leg over and it is bare. Then 2 seconds later as she is sitting down she is wearing tights.

When Harry Potter and Tom Riddle are talking inside the Chamber of Secrets, notice the bridge of Harry's nose. There is a small piece of duck tape under the bridge of the glasses to hold them in place.

When Ron and Harry are escaping from the spiders in the flying car the passenger's side window that broke earlier hitting the willow tree is not broken, you can see Ron's reflection. A minute later you see that the window is broken again.

During the final moments in the Chamber, Harry overcomes Tom Riddle (Voldemort) when putting the Basilisk tooth through the diary. If you watch carefully, you will notice that Harry is keeping his right arm idle, as it has also been posioned by the tooth. He keeps striking the diary and finally closes it for one final attack on the cover. Right before he closes it, you see his left hand still poised in the air with the tooth, but as they cut to the closing of the book right away, they show Harry's left hand closing the book with no sign of the tooth. Now they cut back to Harry's face and his left arm is still up holding the tooth.

At the beginning of the scene near the end of the movie with Lucius Malfoy fuming at Dubledore in his office, Malfoy's hair is fanned back behind his shoulders. The lighting in the room illuminates the back of his neck, where you can see his real, short brown hair.

When Harry first meets Dobby, Dobby is bouncing on the bed. There is a bulletin board of some kind with a Gryffindor flag thing on it. A couple of minutes later, the flaggy thing is still there, but the board itself is gone.

In the second to last scene when Dumbledore is talking to Harry and Ron, Ron's hair is a bit roughed and has a big cowlick. In the next shot, the cowlick is gone and both Ron and Harry's hair is neat.

In the scene where Harry has the bones in his arm regrown, we see him move his hand just before he sees Dobby, although he later claims that his arm has not healed yet. He also never shows any pain in this scene, while Madame Pomfrey told him the regrowing process would be painful.

In the scene when Harry, Ron, and Hermoine find Mrs. Norris petrified, the rest of the school comes rushing to them. How does the rest of the school find out about the attack? They couldn't of heard the Bastilik because they don't speak parsel-tongue. Harry, Ron, and Hermoine were also the first ones to discover the attack.

When Harry goes through the second door to get into the heart of the Chamber where he sees Ginny, the door closes slowly behind him. Then somehow Fawkes manages to fly though a solid two foot thick wall with the hat, how does he do this?

When the girl's restroom is flooding, Harry and Ron are going there and in the hallway, the water is about an inch high. In the bathroom, there are drains and the water hardly comes up to 1/4 inch. This is easy to see when Harry picks up Riddle's diary.

When Ron and the Weasley twins come to pick up Harry from the Dursleys in the flying car, they fly over hundreds of houses. How is it then that we and Harry can hear the car when it is quite a distance away, but the people who live in the houses that the car flies over can't? The car isn't even invisible at the time.

When Harry first meets Dobby, Dobby is moving all about, yet Harry is just focused on one spot.

When Harry is looking at the journal, a bright light appears right in his face and eyes, yet his pupils don't shrink.

When Hermoine takes the Polyjuice Potion, she takes on characteristics of a cat. Note that she took it before Harry did, yet Harry's wore off first. The Polyjuice Potion lasts for 1 hour no matter what you take the form of.

After the basilisk is killed, and Harry talks to Dumbledore, the sword used is lying on the desk, covered in blood. Harry picks it up, and it's clean and shiny. Later, when it's back onthe desk, it's all messy again.

The basilisk shown in the movie must be at least sixty feet long and 5-10 feet across. It would NOT be able to fit through pipes of any kind.

When Lockhart falls down the hole into the Chamber of Secrets, we hear him hit the ground a second or two later. When Ron and Harry jump down, not only do they take longer to get down, they also slide down the pipe, rather than fall straight down.

In the Quidditch scene, Harry breaks his right arm, but as he sits up after he falls off his broom, he leans directly on it.

In the first film, we see that Susan Bones (the red haired girl) is sorted into Hufflepuff, however throughtout the Chamber of Secrets, Susan not only has her classes with the Griffyndors BUT is also wearing a Griffyndor tie
