What’s going on Youtube, i’m your host Joce welcome back to top 10 beyond the screen.
Give us a follow on social media for all the behind the scenes, our links are down below.
And stick around until the end of this video to join me as I handpick some comments and
respond to them.
Hollywood is a place where mistakes around allowed, but at the same time, they are strongly
encouraged.
We’d be lying if we said we don’t like a good movie slip up; it’s kind of nice
to know even the professionals aren’t perfect.
And, let’s admit that some of them give us a pretty good laugh.
Let’s check out some of them with today’s list of Top 10 Funniest Movie Mistakes.
10) Starting off our list at number 10 is one from American Pie.
The hilarious movie that started the series back in 1999 was filled with more than one
mistake, oops, but one of them definitely catches your eye.
It was a continuity mistake.
In the bedroom scene when Stifler is talked to a girl, you can see she is holding a clear
cup full of beer.
The camera goes off of her and when it comes back she is holding a blue cup.
It’s like magic, but it gets even better.
When the camera goes back off her and then on her for a second round, the cup is back
to being clear again.
This mistake would only be noticed in the rated movie version.
Turns out, it doesn’t appear in the unrated version because the blue cup scenes were shot
specifically to secure an R rating from the MPAA because you cannot see the contents inside
the cup; the alcohol.
The editors just got the scenes a little mixed up.
9) At number 9 is a goofy mistake from Mr & Mrs. Smith.
This one is almost impossible not to notice and I’m not sure who to blame, Brad Pitt,
the director, or the editors.
Or everyone involved.
The continuity mistake happens when John and Jane get home after racing each other from
the restaurant.
If you can remember, Jane crashes her car into his.
Right before her car crashes into his, you can see he’s wearing a black jacket, you
know, the iconic slick looking suit jacket.
But right after she hits him his jacket just disappears, it’s no longer on him.
We can see him in his white dress shirt that was underneath his suit jacket, but no jacket.
It’s like her car just took the jacket right off of him.
Not an easy mistake to hide, and I want to know how it even happened.
Like, not 1 person noticed this?
Brad didn’t realize his wardrobe was completely different?
Rookie mistake for someone who’s not a rookie.
8) Coming in at number 8 is one from Star Wars.
This mistake can be seen during Darth Vadar and Obi-Wan’s lightsaber battle on board
the Death Star.
I feel like it’s an absolute disgrace to Star Wars fans to mess up something like the
legendary lightsaber.
Throughout the scene, there are multiple times where you can see the white power cord coming
out of Obi-Wan’s lightsaber.
Were they out of batteries?
Or?
Turns out the white power cord was used to light up his weapon.
Later on this effect was scrapped and the actual light that we see was added in post
production.
But clearly they forgot about the very visible wire hanging out.
It makes it look like a toy from the dollar store to be honest, in one of the most iconic
movies of all time.
7) Swiping the number 7 spot is a mistake from Mean Girls.
The movie was hilarious in itself which might have been a distraction to some of the obvious
mistakes throughout it.
One of them happened during the Halloween scene.
Remember when Cady goes to the Halloween party looking like a zombie bride, aka an ex-wife,
and she sees Regina kissing her crush Aaron samuels.
Well she then leaves the Halloween party to go cry to her good friends Damian and Janis,
who happen to be curled up on a couch together watching a scary movie.
Cady happens to walk in their door in her bloody costume at the most suspenseful part
of their movie, which causes Damian to toss his popcorn bowl in the air.
Obviously, the popcorn spills everywhere and the bowl is left empty.
He screamed like a girl.
But in the next shot, Janis stands up to talk to Cady and the popcorn bowl is full again.
That’s a cool circus trick, some fun popcorn magic.
6) In at number 6 is a mistake that comes from Titanic.
Another iconic movie that is wildly successful and should really have no mistakes in it but
actually has a handful of them.
Fans have noticed a lot of silly mistakes, but let’s just blame it on the fact it was
made in 1997 and maybe things weren’t so sharp back then.
One noticeable mistake is a simple question: glass or no glass?
Out of all the errors found in the movie, this one gets the most attention because of
how obvious it is.
However, I never noticed it until it was pointed out to me.
The mistake happens when Rose breaks the glass to get the fireman’s axe.
When she breaks it, she removes all of the glass from the frame in order to get to the
axe, which makes the most sense.
But then in the next shot, when she goes to grab the axe, we see that most of the glass
is back on the frame.
It’s a simple oversight but one that many fans have hung onto and continue to poke fun
at.
5) Half way through the list at number 5 is from the movie North By Northwest.
The drama mystery movie came out back in 1959, so I know the movie is like hella old, no
offence to anyone born during that time, but this movie mistake was too good to NOT put
it on our list.
The thriller is considered one of Alfred Hitchcock’s best work but it’s also known for the silly
mistake that made it into the final cut.
During the gun scene in the Mount Rushmore cafeteria, Eve starts to threaten Roger with
a gun.
During her threatening speech, you can see a boy in the background cover his ears, before
she sends off the gunshot.The young actor must have known the moment to cover his ears
based off of previous takes.
Not only did he ruin the mood for the scene but he also gives it away that Eve is actually
going to shoot.
Way to go kid.
4) Here we are at number 4 with a mistake in Pirates of The Carribean: The Curse of
the Black Pearl.
The movie came out in 2003 and although many mistakes have been spotted, most of us probably
didn’t notice them because we were too focused on the hilarious Jack Sparrow.
It’s a common mistake in the movie world that a crew member or some crew equipment
is visible in a scene.
That’s the case in this movie.
Near the end of the movie, Jack is on deck and starts to tell the other pirates to do
the same.
If you look over Jacks shoulder, you can see there is a crew member standing there.He’s
wearing a tan cowboy hat, a white short sleeve t shirt, sunglasses, and is just chillen there
looking out at sea.
Little does he know he’s actually standing in one of the most inconvenient spots, in
the shot, directly behind the main character.
3) Alright you guys, another one of Brad Pitt’s fails comes from Ocean’s Eleven.
This guy doesn’t know anything about continuity it seems.
Even if the director and crew didn’t pick up on it, wouldn’t you?
Especially when it involves big and very obvious props.
It happens during the scene when Linus and Rusty are standing in the Botanical Garden
at the Bellagio and are discussing Linus’ observations.
In the beginning of the conversation, Rusty, aka Brad Pitt, has a cocktail glass of shrimp
in his hand.
But then in a split second the camera angle changes and he is suddenly holding a plate
in his hand that has some different foods on it.
The angle then cuts back to the first one, and it’s the shrimp cocktail again.
On top of that, the napkin on his is folded differently in both angle takes.
2) In spot number 2 comes from the movie Braveheart.
There are a few mistakes from this movie that have left people laughing, but one of them
is more ridiculous than the rest.
Yet another dollar store like prop somehow ended up in one of the most epic scenes of
the movie.
At the end of the movie, Wallace’s friend is charging in slow motion, and if you look
at the big axe he is carrying, the blade is actually flopping around and blowing in the
wind.
Obviously, an actual axe blade would never move, but this one is clearly and very noticeably
made of rubber.Now, I understand you don’t want your actors running with an actual axe,
for safety purposes.
But even a plastic blade wouldn’t blow in the wind and would have been a better option.
The axe literally looks like a toy my nephew has.
So ridiculous.
1)Taking our number 1 spot on the list is from American Sniper.
The fake baby.
Need I say more?
By far the worst, most embarrassing, and most ridiculous movie mistake of all time.
I don’t even know if it’s a mistake, this was like a choice, a very bad one.
If you don’t know what I'm talking about, there’s a scene where Bradley Cooper’s
character gets to hold his baby daughter for the first time while his wife cries and says
their marriage is falling apart.
The scene was meant to be this gut-wrenching moment but instead it was hysterical because
the baby Bradley is holding, is very much not real.
And it’s no obvious, that you can’t help but laugh when you watch it.
At one moment, he even uses his thumb to move the baby's hand, as if no one was going to
see him doing that and we were actually going to believe this plastic baby was real.
Bradley spoke on it on the Ellen show saying: I couldn’t believe it, like, I couldn’t
believe we were working with a plastic baby.
I was like, this is nuts.
Well at least he can agree with us on that.
Turns out that the producer came forward saying that wasn’t the original plan.
They had a real baby who showed up to set with a fever, and then their backup baby was
a no show, so they had to make it work.
Yeah, how about rescheduling the shoot day, because this definitely didn’t work.
Alright guys, that’s our list for today.

For now, let’s check out some comments from my last video: top 10 biggest celebrity transformations
you won’t believe.
Monique 131972 says: I've done what you call the Kylie challenge with the lip thing but
it was when I was about 15 and I didn’t know sucking on a cup would cause that but
it didn’t look good on me so I never did it again bye. - - ya I didn’t do the kylie
challenge but I definitely did that as a kid where you’d suck a cup so that it’d suction
to your face.
My mom always hated it.
Bettyann Dean says: I really like your vids joce.
If I could get that skinny for a roll I would not do it that’s so unhealthy - - honestly
I probably would, it’s part of the craft.
They get paid a lot of money for these roles.
Weight can always be gained back.
Arne Sahlen says: here is one more non-hater.
You come across as genuine, energetic and friendly.
You’re not wrapped up in celebrity-culture extremes, yet you can say how you feel without
sneering at other realities.
Canadian too!
How about that?
- - Thank you so much.
You know what they say about us Canadians.
I wonder what people actually say about Canadians.
Dean Winchester says: number 2 is so scary can’t believe anyone wants to look like
a doll - - honestly, it’s getting more common.
If you google it there’s a handful of people who go after that extreme doll look.
It’s nuts.
