The School of Rock one isn't a blooper. Judging by the phone, that is during the time when it cost you per number of texts. He wasn't texting. He was with someone and typing something for them to read. Probably because the band was so loud they couldn't talk to each other and be heard.

[@MitchQuadrupleTree]

I was just coming into the comments to see if anyone else had this same opinion of the moment. Yeah, to me it isn't a blooper either.

[@aaronworthing1023]

The biggest blooper in die hard is actually identified by the filmmakers. late in the movie they drive an ambulance out of the back of their truck as part of their plan to get away. The problem is that toward the beginning you saw inside the truck and there was no ambulance

[@stephenlindsey7876]

My favorite movie "blooper" is from Independence Day. Just after the initial attack, when the aliens blast all the major cities, you can see destruction everywhere. Everything is charred, and covered in ash. Yet, all the palm trees are as pretty and pristine as can be.

[@problematicgoose]

Okay I thought so, too, but they made me rethink 👀

[@k31than]

@7:55 LOL Reminds of Nelly's music video song for 'Dilemma' wherein we see Kelly [Rowland] receiving a text message via Microsoft Excel.

[@Redbeardian]

4:35 Why does that have to be a picture from the second movie? Could it not be a different sighting from 1990 that doesn't have a movie about it?

[@rodscarbrough2337]

that's what i was thinking. since apparently the predators have been here several times in our history. who's to say that picture isn't from somewhere else.

[@bodar]

Mainly because Predators come to hunt when/where it's hot out, which would not be the case in December. Unless Agent Peter Keyes (Busey's character in Predator 2), whose name is shown on the photo, was observing a Predator in the southern hemisphere. The latitude and longitude are wrong for LA though, and 17N is near the equator, so maybe he was in Mexico. That's where the coordinates shown in the photo point to.

[@WhatTheFirstAidSpray]

ART DEPT = Alien Research Team Department 🤣

[@speedincooper]

Now that's some good thinking! 😆

[@AirQuotes]

Makes sense

[@michaelhowell2326]

In the second Predator, it states it takes place during a hot summer on 1997, not December.

[@jeremyball3899]

Came to the comments to say the same thing. Good on you.

[@lindseysharon259]

I've seen it mentioned on a few Easter Egg lists and I'm personally in agreement.

I feel like people have forgotten the whole "drawn to heat and conflict" thing.

[@gincairn8763]

How do we not know ART dept wasn't an acronym? It could be the Alien Replication Technology department... right?

[@barbstephenson8045]

That’s a great explanation! I’m going with that.

[@CyclopsWasRight616]

Jesus, how many "fresh viewings" of Terminator 3 do you expect to have in your lifetime ?

[@cristhian900]

Sure T3 doesn’t hold a candle to T1 and T2 but at least it’s better than anything that came out after. Genesys and Dark Fate were so over-the-top it took me out of the experience.

[@MapleDog]

Goofs not bloopers

[@SterlingQrow]

"blooper" is an embarrassing or humorous mistake during the filming of media. Some are caught and put into "blooper reels" while others are not caught in editing. Goofs ARE bloopers, just 2 different words for the same phenomenon. You basically went "That's not a dog it's a puppy"

[@CornPop2]

[@230791]

You missed quite a few from Jurassic Park. The one that irritates me and has done since I was a child is the misspelling of stegosaurus in the embryo scene.

[@michaeljeary1719]

In Jurassic Park, Nedry is watching a CCTV feed of his contact while on the phone to him. Not video calling. The time line could still be considered an error though.

[@remo2708]

Surely a CCTV feed wouldn’t have a time slider going along the bottom though?

[@michaeljeary1719]

Agreed, that's why I added 'the time line could still be considered an error'.

[@dinomonzon7493]

Best Spielberg film? Easily Raiders of the Lost Ark- a wonderful homage to the cliffhanger serials of the 1930s-1950s.

[@rinwall4765]

The LOTR blooper that gets my goat is Gandalf's staff when they meet Theoden. The scene RIGHT AFTER Gandalf plays up leaning onto his staff, he strides into the hall, holding the staff parallel to the ground like the younger man thathe is.

[@GroundhogJay]

Maybe it wasn't a text message. Maybe he was just typing it for his friend next to him to read?

[@anthonywaggett9317]

Area 51 would definitely have an Art Department to provide the needed untruths to cover the real situation.

[@HardtruthFYT]

Doesn’t Predator 2 take place during the summer months. It has been awhile but wasn’t a part of the film about how hot it was in L.A., making people more aggressive?

[@rockero1313]

in "The Predator" defense, the 1990 footage could be actually from 1990 but from another Predator. remember that the Spec Ops team had knowledge about the Predator before 1997 so maybe that "1990" footage was actually from 1990. also, it says Dec 2 1990 and I don't thing LA would be that hot in December.

[@Metalchick36]

The biggest blooper that I remember seeing was in the movie While You Were Sleeping. In the theatrical release, you can see the mic at the top of the screen in the hospital scene. It’s been edited out since, but there are other bloopers still in the film, such as the knee pads on Bill Pullman after he and Sandra Bullock slip and fall on some ice.

[@RobHorrorLive]

This channel usually talks about movies I personally don't know about. I've heard of these movies and have seen most of them.

[@eaglerider1826]

One of my favorites was from the original Halloween movie . In one scene Lori and her friend are smoking a joint in a car with the windows rolled up . The sheriff calls them over to talk and they roll down the window and the sheriff sticks his head in the car and doesn't smell anything . A few minutes later when they drive off you see Michael pull up to a stop sign , look both ways then pull off . if he has been locked up since a child and never driven before how would he know to do this .

[@GeorgeArthurJr]

I've always loved seeing Michael looking both ways at the stop sign before he drives off as well. Lol

[@SterlingQrow]

The look both ways thing doesn't have anything to do with driving......we are all told to look both ways at stop signs and before crossing the street as children, why wouldn't one assume the same rule when in a car? And as for the whole "knowing to drive without being taught" thing.....also not weird. Driving isn't that difficult, cars back then were even simpler than now. I taught myself how to drive by literally just doing it, anyone can if given the chance to just get behind a wheel and mess with the car

[@eaglerider1826]

@@SterlingQrow You have your opinion . He is not crossing a street . He is making a left turn in a car . He also got in the car and drove over 150 miles to get to his home town in the middle of the night. Is it possible that he somehow taught himself how to read road maps and follow traffic signs , and speed limits ? Michael is not described as a genius but only as evil .

[@ArnoldLokman]

There's also a mess with police cars license plates in Terminator 2.

[@leesherman5192]

There's also the disappearing cigar burn during the bar scene. It's so obvious that at first I thought we were supposed to notice it, like it's demonstrating his insta-healing bio-flesh or something.

[@shaneblessley1141]

Anybody else feel that the mid video like and subscribe feels too much like the end of a video?

[@speedincooper]

Yeah I hate it. Just about to click on the next video and it's mid-way though!

[@sam77rat]

If I had to guess, #3's mistake was intentional. I imagine that in the tight shot of Bella's face the tubes weren't visible enough so they just moved them to be in the frame.

[@YouLousyKids]

I didn't even know about the T3 error until earlier this week. Meh. I don't care. The one that has always driven me nuts is the 1990 film Presumed Innocent. A character is on the courthouse steps and reporters thrust microphones forward to get a word. One of the reporters holds out a small cassette player, with the face of it clearly shown to the camera...and there isn't a tape inside of it. And it isn't like it's off to the side and you'd miss it. It's DEAD CENTER of the frame. I caught it in the theater because it's so blindingly obvious.

[@whyjnot420]

Terminator 3 has one of the most badass car chases in history. I have to give them credit on that.

[@ashes2ashesuk]

Also, regarding Predator 2, the whole premise was that it’s summer and there was a heat wave, hence the presence of a Predator in LA

[@TaeKwonMoe]

How do you think they faked the moon landing? With the help of their Art Department of course!!!!

[@cc194229]

There is actually a whole book full of movie errors I saw once in an airport book shop, I believe it was called “Roman soldiers don’t wear wristwatches” after the movie Spartacus in which some of the actors playing Roman soldiers can be seen wearing wristwatches

[@Blidsater]

One mans trash is another mans treasure is a great quote but not the best way telling your kid he's adopted

[@jameswaterfield]

Isn't the whole of the Twilight saga a blooper? As for Die Hard, it's only in the movies that it takes a short period to strangle someone to death, apparently it takes a couple of minutes just to render someone unconscious and then at least another two or three to actually kill them, so Karl's apparent resurrection is not a resurrection, but a bloke who returned to consciousness and saved himself

[@Narsil31]

The greatest Spielberg film is Saving Private Ryan. It's hard to pick one from the many awesome films he's made but IMO this one is the best.

[@SkageXL5]

In School Of Rock they weren't sending a text message, they were using the document to have a conversation because it was too loud.

[@larskaaber9869]

to answer Gareth's question: the best Spielberg movie is undoubtedly "Empire of the Sun", so wonderfully unsentimental, as opposed to most other Spielberg films. "Schindler's List" would have been there, too, if not for the mushy ending.

[@MurderMostFowl]

Yes… That terrible “mushy” I could have saved more of them, anguish, grief and overwhelming emotion of the weight and guilt of the actions he took. Oh … sorry… did you mean the actual last scene where they say the “yo, true story, thank you for saving all our lives” and honoring Schlinder by the real life holocaust survivors leaving flowers at his grave part?!?! Yeah real F’ing mushy there, man. You don’t have to love the movie… Hell, you don’t even have to enjoy it at all, but don’t trivialize it by calling it mushy.

[@BitOBear]

Unless she ended with Schindler's list is what actually happened. Sometimes the world is mushy. It's an actual true story.

The Jurassic Park pre-recorded video thing I actually noticed and called it out in the theater… Only to be shushed LOL. I suppose they do deserve some praise for using a real computer interface though, as it was Hollywood tradition at the time to use fake computer screens which just look terrible

[@Novastar.SaberCombat]

Reshooting scenes costs MONEY. Time. Logistics. Sometimes... it's not worth it. Not at all.

[@leesherman5192]

Here's another one I noticed in the wild: When an extra opens a car door during the frozen Gotham montage in "Batman and Robin" you can see the ice wobble like it's made of rubber.

[@kylecarlstrom1106]

Another Independence Day oops is when Will Smith opens the space craft following the dog fight. When he opens it up and you see all the tentacles, you can clearly see a hand, more obvious than the Tremors 2 one.

[@darkangelpictures]

Regarding Independence Day it's also plausible the Art Department marked the bins intended as props in the scene so they weren't mistaken for real bins and didn't expect the underside to be exposed. Though seeing as it seems to be black plastic and not metal like the others maybe it was just left there accidentally?

[@Rainbowhawk1993]

There was another blooper in Independence Day where a crew member was in the middle of the set and had to crawl down the hallway when David’s wife turned around to look at the window and let him and his father into the White House.

[@chrisbergmanniii59]

Imo Spielberg's best is Close Encounters. Also schindler

i remember noticing that jurassic park scene in the theater. i was like hey...isn't that a video?!

[@righty-o3585]

The guy in Die Hard has a twin brother in the movie

[@trumpetbob15]

Die Hard had another huge blunder, one that the director was fully aware of right around the time the movie was finishing up, as told in the Netflix show, "The Movies that Made Us." Because they were writing the story as they were still filming, they didn't have a way initially for the bad guys to try and exit the building after the heist. During filming, they got the idea to have a vehicle hidden in the box truck the team drives into Nakatomi Tower. Except...when they arrive, the camera shows the open back end of the truck and there is no vehicle. The director was informed and he basically said screw it and left it in. In the show, his quote is something along the lines of, "Well, that was an hour ago. Who cares?"

[@SAMTYLER1974]

I’ve long believed AI to be one of Spielberg’s best films and certainly one of his most underrated. Yes, Kubrick’s version would have likely been even better but as someone who thinks Spielberg, especially in recent years, has become increasingly overrated and predictable AI was and still is a film that mixed astonishing visuals with a surprisingly dark, dystopian take of Pinocchio. Yes, it still falls foul of The Beard’s cloying sentimentality but overall it’s his most fascinating, unique and rewatchable films in his career … … as for the recent fare we get the utter shite Crystal Skull, the forgettable Tintin, the dull and insipid West Side Story, the disposable BFG and the atrocious retro porn that was Ready Player One. Basically far too many duds for a supposed “master”
