The last time i saw Drive i noticed that when Ryan Gosling is breaking into the Mustang he is wearing gloves and then a cut later when the door opens they have appeared in his back pocket. Still an amazing movie though.

I watched Howard The Duck over the weekend. I just noticed when Howard is being pulled away from DuckWorld, the planet is egg-shaped.

i realized the other night that the guy riding the racing snail in THE NEVERENDING STORY is Deep Roy

Listened to Rob Reiner's commentary for Stand By Me for the first time earlier. I've got that movie completely memorized, but I never noticed (Til Reiner pointed it out) Jerry O'Connell's radio-mic dangling out of his pants after the first train dodge.

I saw Return of the Pink Panther once in the theater and a couple times on broadcast TV. But when I watched it on DVD, I finally noticed while Sellers is questioning the beggar


...and I thought the theater audience was laughing at Sellers' relentless questioning.

I saw Christmas Vacation 1000 time and never noticed until someone pointed out to me, in WalMart when Clark and Eddie are shopping, Clark buys light bulbs then Eddie drops the dog food on them breaking them.

I think you're missing a word or phrase?

Why So Blu?

Oh shit, you're right. It's a big ass

Thx

That's always been one of my favorite bits in Christmas Vacation. The timing between Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid is perfect!

godzilla rules

That's the point of the whole scene. Anyone who has seen the movie knows this. Not something that is not noticed.

the scene in 'The Birds' where after the man is engulfed in fire he drops his match into the gas, the subsequent shots of the fire as it climbs back up the hill towards the gas station - the quick four edits of Tippi's face as she watches the flames - I had never noticed that brilliant editing choice by editor George Tomasini and director Hitchcock.

Why So Blu?

I should have clarified that I know that now but didn't like the first 2-3 times I saw it years ago.

In Ghostbusters

^The beautiful thing about widescreen. I'm pretty sure the reason I never noticed that when I was a kid was because I had only seen the movie in full screen. It wasn't until I bought the DVD with my first DVD player that I noticed that.

Crocker Jarmen

That's great! It reminds me of how on the audio commentary, one of the producers says the movie is dated by how much the Ghostbusters smoke, and Ramis makes a big deal out of saying, "Not me!"

Twice in the past while talking to two fans of the Exorcist, I've mentioned how brilliant the head-turning scene is, in that Regan is not only mocking how Burke Dennings was found (with his head turned completely around), but also speaking in his voice. Neither of the people I've mentioned this to had noticed the connection. I think they were both distracted so much by the famous head-turning that they never thought about what Regan/the demon was implying.

I actually found this out years ago but for the longest time I never noticed: in the first naked gun after leslie neilson stabs the jelly fish with the unbreakable pen (I think that's what he does) he starts talking about nordberg saying that "he's doing pretty good so far and soon he'll be able to play the guitar" (or something similar) I never noticed this for the longest time because the camera is focused on what he's doing with the fish and he says it somewhat quitely.

You Only Live Twice. Seen it a zillion times, including several times at theater. Recently watched the BD. Towards the beginning, when Bond is walking streets of Tokyo at night, never noticed that he is being shadowed by several of Tanaka's female agents. Each time he passed a particular spot he was passed of to the next girl.

In Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, when Max is leaving after concluding his deal, Pappagallo, declaring that he will drive the tanker, has an hourglass in his hand.

I remember noticing this in the theater the first time I saw it. One of those times that the big screen image really makes a difference.

BuckNaked2k

In one of the Oceans Trilogy films, not sure which one, there's a scene where Matt Damon's character is in a European city talking on a cellphone while walking down the street. The cinematography shifts to a very choppy hand-held camera as an inside joke / homage to his Bourne films, shot in the very same manner.

Why So Blu?

It would have been the first one since the 1st and 2nd one did not leave the states.

Defiant1

The second one was set in Europe. The first and third were in Vegas.

Why So Blu?

You're right. The fuck was I thinking?!

2 is also pretty awful.
