Great Films/Film Flubs.

J.R. Hudson

Spirit Animal
There are couple kick-ass films I have watched lately where terrible technical flubs can be noticed.  Case in point:

ALIENS

The scene where NEWT is being sucked across the platform due to the vacuum of space and BISHOP (The dirty Android bastard according to Ripley) is all severed in half and reaches out to grab her hand.  If you look closely, you can plainly see the hole in the stage and his waist sticking out of it.  

Sigh....

Superman

In an early scene where LOIS and CLARK are leaving the Daily Planet (This is right before she gets into the helecopter) they are walking past glass partitions.  Sure enough, throughout the exchange, you can see the Boom Mic.  


I showed these Flubs to my wife and she gasped "Oh my god!  Look at that!" and then I explained the Curse of the Filmmaker where we can't help but notice these things.
 
Re: Great Films/Film Flubs.

There are SEVERAL flubs in Superman (which I just happened to watch this weekend) -- check out how the product-placement Cheerios box moves in the scene on the morning Clark leaves Smallville.

Word has it in the scene you mention above, you can also see Richard Donner.

I just watched is as well. Lately I have been introducing my son to The Movies That MUST BE Seen.

What's sad about the DVD extras is that you see the Superman II which COULD (should?) have been.
