cool things in movies you miss

When Agent Smith pulls up in an Audi at the beginning of the film (Reloaded), his license plate is IS 5416. In the King James Bible, Isaiah 54:16 says, Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy."
oh and in the star wars movie when there in the senate debate theres 3 E.Ts on one of the platforms
Also, a lot of the car number plates are Bible references. For example, the car Trinity and Morpheus drive during the highway scene has DA203 as its number plate. Daniel 02:03 refers to King Nebuchadnezzar describing a dream he has had; "I have dreamed a dream, and now that dream is gone from me". This is exactly what Morpheus says when the Nebuchadnezzar hovercraft is destroyed. Morpheus is also named after the Greek god of dreams, which fits well with his character. As I said earlier, the films really seem to fit together better when you pay close attention
in Black Hawk Down, the cabbie hired to point out the target building can be seen firing at the Americans in multiple later scenes.

I watched the Butterfly Effect the other day and noticed a fault in it...
When Ashton's mum was driving the girl home (as kids), Ashton was in the front seat and the girl was in the back. The car stopped outside her house and the girl got out without Ashton moving. THE CAR IS A 2 DOOR CELICA!!! Oviously the car in the studio they filmed it in was a four door and no-one cared or noticed the difference. 
NOTE: I can't remember what the name of Ashton Kutchcer's character is so I'll called the kid Ashton.

I have seen two totally different endings for that movie too... I won't describe them both because it will stuff the movie up for people that hasn't seen it yet. But, the two endings are more than just 30sec long. It's at least the last 5-10min that is different... From him watching the home movie onwards. The home movie is totally different in the two endings and hence it has a totally different effect on stuff.
One copy I watched was a dodgy rip from Asia somewhere and the other a preview tape for Civic Video. Apparently the dodgy version was the same as the one shown in Australia at the cinemas. WTF is going on there.

The preview DVD that I watched is IDENTICAL to the one that will be sold and rented in Australian video stores. I checked it for the other ending and only found a couple of slight differences. ie: two alternative street scenes (the very very last scene). They are called the "happy sappy ending" and "stalker ending".
These are only the last bit. The real difference I was talking about is much longer.
As I said before, I don't want to be the cnut to ruin the movie for people... I am not gonna spell out what happens.

yeah, i saw the directors cut, which has the ending where he, hmmm, how can i put it without giving it away, watches the birth. my sister said when she saw it, it had a different ending, but i got a pre release dvd, and it only had the driectors cut.
that didnt ruin anything did it?
back on topic, i also remeber this bit in braveheart, in one of the battles, when willy wallis waves the flag to signal his allies, and they fuck off on him, there are two extras in the direct centre of the bakcground "fighting", with swords and they are just standing there tapping their swords together.

In that case, the director's cut is the one that will be in video stores... That is the only one on the preview tape my bro got. It fits better with the story as well. It seems to be the intended ending. The other one is ok but doesn't fit with the rest of the movie quite as well.

thats probably coz the driectors cut it a bit controversial, and might piss people off, saying its bad taste and whatever. but on the dvd i had, it had two option when you select to play, directors cut, and theatrical version, but i could only highlight directors cut.
theres heaps of movie mistakes here

I meant that the "watching the birth" ending was the one on the video.

I can't stand the amount of mistakes that are made in many movies. If they took just a bit more care shooting scenes and following simple rules of shooting, such as camera position and where not to relocate it to. Such as keeping the camera on the same side of a person for a scene/conversation and not changing sides. And i spose also the most common problem of prop positioning. Whilst not a common problem with the so called block busters, it still slips through.
Sorry to be podantic, but doing drama/film for HSC has made me realise how many mistakes are made in film which could have easily been fixed. In some ways it destroys the illusion that the film may be real.

In Independence Day there is a scene where there is a plastic rubbish bin in the background with "Prop Dept." written on it in big letters.

yeah you will also notice that in the second star wars when the bounty dude is fighting the jedi dude outside the place that makes the clones when going inside his ship he nocks his head
thus all storm troopers have the bang head dna as are created from him. or something

In hell boy, in the sewers theres is a scene where Hell Boy's gun is in his right hand.
Also in the two towers at helms deep there is a few defenders that don't know how to use a bow, one of them knocks an arrow, thinks about it (waits for his queue), then *gently* puts it down and runs into the fort. Made me laugh.
As for the butterfly effect with getting out of the back seat, I noticed this too, but I think he had his seat all the way forward and then leant forward a little more for her to get out. I don't think there was a 4 door car (or a prop-car with no side on it).
