17 Movie Flaws That Are Only Obvious Once You See Them
It's okay, Twister. I forgive you.
We asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us about a movie inconsistency that took them a while to notice. Here are the "oh yeah wow"–worthy responses.
1. In Mamma Mia!, Donna says her mom is dead, but her mom is very much alive in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
Universal Pictures
2. Dorothy's hair completely changes length throughout The Wizard of Oz — even over the course of one scene.
Warner Bros.
3. The Twilight vampires explicitly don't have heartbeats — and therefore don't have pumping blood — so where are the erections, shall we say, coming from?
Summit Entertainment
4. Cinderella's shoes fit her oh-so perfectly, but one falls off when she runs away.
Walt Disney Productions
5. In The Meg, it was only just discovered that the big bad sharks aren't extinct, but the main character interacted with one five years ago — and in a whole different part of the ocean.
Gravity Pictures
6. In High School Musical 2, Chad does a full song-and-dance number during the baseball game...about how he doesn't dance.
Walt Disney Pictures
7. In Mean Girls, Damian spills the entire popcorn bowl when Cady scares him, but in the next shot, his bowl has mysteriously refilled itself.
Paramount Pictures
8. Ariel from The Little Mermaid knows how to write — she signs Ursula's contract — but she doesn't write down anything to communicate with Eric when she can't speak.
Walt Disney Pictures
9. In It's a Wonderful Life, Harry's grave is supposed to indicate that he died at age 9, but the years on the gravestone mean he was 7 or 8 when he passed.

10. In Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent curses Aurora to die before sunset on her 16th birthday, but the fairies bring Aurora back to the castle and leave her alone before the sun sets. Did they not hear the curse???

13. This is more of an inconsistency with the world than with the movie, but in The Notebook, Noah says he would watch traffic lights turn "from green to red to yellow" with his dad, which is not, you know, how traffic lights work — as indicated by the light changing correctly while he talks.
New Line Cinema
14. Also more of an inconsistency with the world, but how is it possible that no one else could fit into Cinderella's glass slipper? No other lady has her shoe size?
