0:00:02 > 0:00:05There was once a noble quest undertaken by Tommo and Ben,

0:00:05 > 0:00:09two hairy men from the Midlands, and Matthew, the painfully white.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13Bravely, they sought out motion picture mishaps,

0:00:13 > 0:00:18cinematic screw-ups and filmic failures.

0:00:18 > 0:00:22They travelled as far as Odeon and through the many caverns of Vue,

0:00:22 > 0:00:25where they have returned with their prey,

0:00:25 > 0:00:29captured on shiny golden rings known as DVDs.

0:00:29 > 0:00:33Fine, fine, I know they're not gold.

0:00:33 > 0:00:38Join them now as they celebrate Great Movie Mistakes.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43- This will surprise you guys, but I'm actually a bit of a nerd.- Stop it.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45No, all true, all true.

0:00:45 > 0:00:46It's all right, Matthew,

0:00:46 > 0:00:49it's actually pretty cool nowadays to be a nerd.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Yeah, in fact coming up next, we've got

0:00:50 > 0:00:54a whole section dedicated to movie mistakes that happen in nerdy films.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56Oh, fantastic.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Is there anything from the biopic of George de Mestral,

0:00:58 > 0:01:02the inventor of Velcro, or from the 1970s documentary

0:01:02 > 0:01:05Velcro Wars, about the golden age of the Velcro industry?

0:01:05 > 0:01:09- Uh...no.- No.

0:01:09 > 0:01:14It's like comic book stuff and sci-fi and things.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Oh. That's actually fairly mainstream these days.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Certainly nothing about Velcro.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25You massive nerd.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28Yeah. Nerd.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32It's blood-sucking vampire Bella in the ever-rancid

0:01:32 > 0:01:34and ghastly Twilight series.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Hey, you're just bitter because you're Team Jacob

0:01:37 > 0:01:40- and she picked Edward.- What?! Spoiler alert!

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Well, here's a spoiler, boyos.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46- Look at the page from The Merchant Of Venice.- Yep, I see it.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48Just a regular smudge-free page.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57- But wait! Where did those smudges come from?- Smudge-tastic.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04This fight scene is the one redeeming feature of all five

0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Twilight films.- Or is it?

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- Because even this epic scene has a movie mistake.- No!

0:02:15 > 0:02:16Afraid so, Tom.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Look, there she is with high heels just as Edward hurls her,

0:02:19 > 0:02:22in one of Twilight's many potent feminist moments.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28- And now? Flat boots.- Oh, I give up.

0:02:33 > 0:02:38Spooky things in the mediocre and lacklustre horror Dark Skies.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41Daniel's got a new job, hence the flowers.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43We need to celebrate for a change.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48Hey. Where did they go?

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Either she dropped them or she tucked them into his jeans

0:02:50 > 0:02:52so they could snog.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Let's celebrate.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56And now he's got them again. Somehow.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07Though Mr Ratner is a portly man, he's clearly an elite martial artist.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11Few have mastered the Mobius hand punch in which you start

0:03:11 > 0:03:15punching someone with your right hand and finish with your left.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Impressive.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Dredd was a well-made,

0:03:21 > 0:03:24violent but fan-pleasing interpretation of the strip.

0:03:24 > 0:03:29As megafans know, Dredd's never seen without his helmet or without his gun.

0:03:29 > 0:03:34Well, helmet is fully intact there. Stallone, take note.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36Where's his gun?

0:03:36 > 0:03:39Phew! There it is! Franchise nearly ruined there.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50Four mean-looking thugs walking down a hallway.

0:03:50 > 0:03:55Hang on, is this a clip from Dredd or an old music video from Blue?

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Cracking reference, Tom.- Agreed!

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Point is there are now only three of them.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Lee Ryan probably got confused looking at his reflection

0:04:04 > 0:04:06in a broken window.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Handcuffs in the future are brilliant.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14- Brilliantly accommodating, that is.- Wahey!

0:04:18 > 0:04:20There they go, becoming invisible

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- and moving apart.- Like my parents.

0:04:28 > 0:04:32Dredd's not a lawman of the future but the past.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35Pause here and you see this shot of old stony face in action.

0:04:35 > 0:04:40But wind back exactly an hour and you get exactly the same moment again.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44And they complain about there being too many repeats on TV.

0:04:44 > 0:04:50Yeah, I saw this movie four times in one day in the same cinema.

0:04:50 > 0:04:51Unbelievable.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59It's Peter Jackson's rather-expected return to Middle Earth

0:04:59 > 0:05:03with the far-too-long and eked-out The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

0:05:03 > 0:05:09Check it out, guys. Here's Bilbo with his hand on the door.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13- Now, it's by his side. - Hmm, it's not a massive mistake.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Yeah, well, he is tiny.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Who said?

0:05:19 > 0:05:22I'm not afraid, I'm up for it.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25I'll give him a taste of dwarfish iron right up his jacksy.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29James Nesbitt here as Bofur, the cheeky dwarf.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32Look at him leaning forward with his pipe out of his mouth,

0:05:32 > 0:05:36and now leaning against the wall with his pipe IN his mouth.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Classic Murphy's Law.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45The bad thing about movies is if you watch a terrible one, you can't get the time back.

0:05:45 > 0:05:46True, that.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49I wrote to Ben Affleck after I watched Pearl Harbor

0:05:49 > 0:05:53demanding that he send me back three hours plus interest.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57- He never replied! - What were you expecting he'd send?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Three and a half hours.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01Maybe a bit more, according to the exchange rate.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05I was very disappointed by Gone In 60 Seconds.

0:06:05 > 0:06:06Way longer than advertised.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08I think that's the time it took them to write the script.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11ALL: Hey-o!

0:06:11 > 0:06:15Actually, I was pleasantly surprised by The NeverEnding Story.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Slightly alarmist title, that one.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20So, as a public service, we've trawled through the world's

0:06:20 > 0:06:24worst films and highlighted the mistakes so you don't have to.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Yippie-ki-yay, Mother Hubbard.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32- Good old Brucie as John McClane, can't go wrong.- I beg to differ.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Look at the car window - open.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Then closed.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39That's about as wrong as it gets, mate.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44Check out this packed courtroom.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48I had a similar turn out when I was in court for my naked rambling.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Yeah, you really shouldn't have rambled nude

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- through the packed courtroom, Ben. - So it transpired.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57Oh, my days, it's a triple car bomb! Pe-eow, pe-eow, pe-eow!

0:06:57 > 0:07:00Don't worry, through the medium of continuity errors,

0:07:00 > 0:07:04everyone in the courtroom has miraculously escaped.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Except for that guard. - Don't worry, he gets shot.- Yay.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Pay close attention and you'll see it.

0:07:16 > 0:07:20There it is, proof that A Good Day To Die Hard was in fact

0:07:20 > 0:07:22a film filmed by a crew.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25Cor, you've really lifted the lid on that one(!)

0:07:25 > 0:07:27You're welcome.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32What is it with old people and phones?

0:07:32 > 0:07:33They just can't work them properly.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36I'd argue this old lad is actually quite impressive.

0:07:36 > 0:07:41He successfully made an outgoing call while still on the dialling screen.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42Either that, or he's having

0:07:42 > 0:07:45a full-blown discussion with the voices in his head -

0:07:45 > 0:07:48in which case, that whole scene is just really upsetting.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Wait for my command to execute...

0:07:53 > 0:07:55An all-star cast doesn't make a great film,

0:07:55 > 0:07:57as Olympus Has Fallen shows.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59What ruins it for me is this.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Even I know the plural of terrorist isn't terrorist!

0:08:03 > 0:08:06Go on, then. What is it, then?

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Terrori?

0:08:08 > 0:08:10..the most protected building on earth.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17In After Earth, our planet's now host to giant creatures.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18And camera cranes.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Ah, yes, and camera cranes,

0:08:20 > 0:08:22one of which reveals itself with its shadow.

0:08:22 > 0:08:26This really is a slow and tedious film. Let's move on. Quick!

0:08:31 > 0:08:34Judd Apatow goes grown-up at the request of absolutely no-one,

0:08:34 > 0:08:36in the coarse and plot-less This Is 40.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40- It's just a bunch of guys that get together and ride.- I know, I know.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44But watch, as Barry heckles the dangerous driver.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46The car disappears!

0:08:49 > 0:08:52- You want to see pictures of the kids?- Oh, yeah!

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Hooray! 3rd Rock From The Sun!

0:08:55 > 0:08:58John Lithgow's done much more than that, Ben.

0:08:58 > 0:09:02- He's a Shakespearean actor.- Yes, but that mobile is clearly upside-down.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Is he playing "Man Who Can't Use an iPhone Properly" from Hamlet?

0:09:08 > 0:09:13That sixth form update of Hamlet you did was NOT the definitive version!

0:09:15 > 0:09:19As we all know, Americans are only capable of driving automatic vehicles.

0:09:19 > 0:09:23They also can't handle roundabouts.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26But to make things tricky, Pete and Debbie are driving whilst their car

0:09:26 > 0:09:30is in park mode, when the thing shouldn't be able to move at all!

0:09:30 > 0:09:34- Bit of a non-starter all round, this movie.- Boring.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40- What does he have you doing? - Nothin', baby...

0:09:40 > 0:09:43If you're one of the 11 people who have seen Stolen, I can only

0:09:43 > 0:09:44offer you my condolences.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48It is not strong, though it does mark a milestone

0:09:48 > 0:09:52in that it is Nicolas Cage's ten millionth film!

0:09:52 > 0:09:56But it does have this blunder. Here, Cage knocks this guy off his stool...

0:09:58 > 0:09:59MAN GROANS

0:09:59 > 0:10:03And now, somehow, the stool is back upright.

0:10:03 > 0:10:04You tell me where she is

0:10:04 > 0:10:07or I'll blow your lunch all over this carpet.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Yeah, honestly, don't see this film.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17Here's where Stolen goes from savagely mediocre to really gross.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Nicolas Cage escapes from his handcuffs using

0:10:19 > 0:10:23the time-honoured method of dislocating his left thumb.

0:10:23 > 0:10:24Oi, nasty!

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Hello. I'm here...

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Then, after a preposterous double car crash,

0:10:35 > 0:10:38he gets out of the car and resets his RIGHT thumb.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Or possibly also dislocates it for fun. Who knows?

0:10:41 > 0:10:44Really comin' down to the wire on this one.

0:10:46 > 0:10:50It's the ghastly and unwanted Sweeney movie.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Now, we've seen over-keen extras in films,

0:10:52 > 0:10:56but it's a bit much when the extra is St Paul's Cathedral.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58- See it here?- Yep.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02Ah, yes, it also pops up later on the other side of the car here.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07They also seem to be driving along the same bridge for absolutely ages.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10What secret massive bridge are they using?

0:11:10 > 0:11:13The one next to the two St Paul's Cathedrals, I guess.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Sharknado, a concept so daft Ben could have come up with it.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22You say that, but I still haven't attracted any funding

0:11:22 > 0:11:23for Goatpocalypse Now.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Thank God for that.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Now, searching for mistakes in this is like shooting fish in a barrel,

0:11:28 > 0:11:31which is probably the way the special effects were filmed.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34Here we see a house clearly massively flooded

0:11:34 > 0:11:36and sharks are swimming all over the place,

0:11:36 > 0:11:39which really begs the question of how they opened the door!

0:11:39 > 0:11:43And why the water level outside is almost nonexistent.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46And how they managed to close the door again.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48And why there are sharks in tornadoes!

0:11:49 > 0:11:53And what Tara Reid did to her once promising career.

0:11:53 > 0:11:54Great news, guys!

0:11:54 > 0:11:56She's just signed up for Goatpocalypse Now!

0:11:59 > 0:12:01Everybody out of the pool!

0:12:01 > 0:12:03In a film with amazingly ropey special effects,

0:12:03 > 0:12:06it's remarkable that they wasted money on this effect

0:12:06 > 0:12:08that makes absolutely no sense.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Specifically, that Connect Four game.

0:12:11 > 0:12:16- Is one of the reds actually floating in mid-air?- Yes, Tom, it is.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18Great work, art department(!)

0:12:18 > 0:12:21- And that's your lot. - See you soon for some more...

0:12:21 > 0:12:24ALL: Great Movie Mistakes!
