The Aviator – Chocolate Chip Cookies
The 2004 film The Aviator was a critical and commercial success. In one of the scenes from the movie, Howard Hughes (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) buys chocolate chip cookies.
Well, it is a blooper because the writers didn’t realize that chocolate chip cookies weren’t invented until 1938, which is two years after the movie was set.
Django Unchained – Sunglasses
This 2012 hit film made an error which many people noticed, and many didn’t. In the movie Django (played by Jamie Foxx) wore sunglasses. But the thing is that they weren’t prevalent back then and were mostly used when prescribed by doctors.
Given that Jamie Foxx was so good in the movie, most of us simply ignored or forgave this big mistake.
Titanic – Lake Wissota
Titanicย became the biggest grossing film of all time and was a massive hit among the audiences and the critics. However, most viewers didn’t notice that Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) tells Rose that he and his father used to fish in Lake Wissota.
It was a good story to tell a girl, but the problem is that the Titanic sank in 1912, and Lake Wissota was formed in 1917.
Braveheart – Wearing A Kilt
This American epic historical fiction war film was nominated for ten Academy Awards and won five. But the issue is that William Wallace (Mel Gibson) character wore a kilt.
It is because Scots used to wear them, but not in 1300 in which the movie was set. Wearing a kilt became popular in the 1600s.
Forrest Gump – Apple Stocks
Okay, this is one of those errors that could make anyone laugh. In the movie, Forrest Gump receives a letter from Apple, but the film was set in 1975.
Surprisingly, the famous rainbow logo of Apple was not designed until the following year, and Apple became a publically traded company in 1981.
Gladiator – “The Spaniard”
Any fans of Russell Crowe and his famous role of Maximus Decimus Meridius? Well, his character in the movie is also called ‘The Spaniard,’ which is, in fact, an old French word that was invented in the 1300s.
It was a silly mistake from the writers as the Gladiator movie was set in 180 AD, a thousand years earlier!
The Dark Knight – Spell Check
Christopher Nolan is frequently called a perfectionist, but it seems like there was one proofreading mistake that he and his team didn’t notice.
By the way, the word “Hiest” can even make the fans of Money Heist a bit angry.
The Hurt Locker – Xbox Games
In the movie, you can see the characters playing a game on Xbox 360. The Xbox itself didn’t come out until 2005, and the game they were playing, Gears of War, was released in 2006.
As the movie took place in 2004, this little error is enough to make it on our list.
Harry Potter And The Chamber of Secrets – Cameraman On Set
You can find tons of bloopers of the famous Harry Potter film series. It is probably because most of the actors in the films were kids. But there is one particular blooper that is absurd and unbelievable.
You may remember the scene in which Malfoy is on the ground, and Hogwarts students are looking at him. In that scene, you can clearly see a cameraman, and it makes one think that the editors were smoking something during post-production.
Pirates of The Caribbean – Granny Smith Apples
If you’re a fan ofย Pirates of The Caribbeanย movies, you may have noticed that Captain Barbossa likes to eat apples. In one scene, you can see him with an apple, Granny Smiths, which didn’t even exist until 1868, approximately 140 years after the film was set.
Even if you love apples and the Pirates of The Caribbean, we’re sure you didn’t know about this fact.
