Many Eyes, Shallow Bugs, and Spider-Man

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the entomology-incorrect-pun-goes-here dept.

Danious writes Seems Spider-Man is clocking up 'bugs' at movie-mistakes.com faster than any previous movie (now 95 and counting). The reason, according to this Independent article, is not that it may have more mistakes than usual, but that 'huge numbers of people are going to see it - and that makes for lots of pairs of eyes checking every inch of the screen.' The top movie is currently 'The Matrix' with 147." A lot of the bugs simply aren't really errors, and I'm sure the comic book guys out there can debate them.

    Is getting your poor website submitted to slashdot. Although the crash and burn effect is kind of pretty...

    In the parade scene, Peter spots MJ and Harry on the balcony and Harry sees Peter on the ground. Yet, when MJ is falling from the balcony after it crumbles, the distance to the ground is much farther than a few storeys.

    The plural usage is "Stories"

    As I see it, almost all of the Simpson's episodes execute simultaneously in time, so it's quite possible that the nerds were helping homer at the very time he was deriding them in the Poochie episode.

    Of course, that's BS, but it explains why time doesn't pass except when provisions are made.

    There should be a moratorium on the use of the apostrophe.

    Isn't "Sentence Fragment" a Sentence Fragment?
