Battle of Britain, it's plainly obvious that aircraft from both sides being blown apart are models. In some scenes you can see the receiver antenna trailing behind the planes.

Burt Reynolds, Navajo Joe. Much of the filming is fantasy, especially Joe sticking the hatchet in Duncan's forehead.

There is a scene in Goldfinger, where the ***** Squadron flies over Fort Knox, and release some sort of “chemical”…..knocking all the personnel to the ground.
The actions by the extras was so campy and poorly done that it is more than a. Bit hilarious to me.

Let's also add: any WW2 movie, including "Saving Private Ryan" in which the Allied or the Germans are using medium or heavy machine guns. No one in the real war pulled the trigger and left it shoot for a full minute or longer at a time. The barrell would be burned out and useless in quick time. Standard procedure taught was very short bursts and then the barrell lasted much longer.

Saving Private Ryan where the American sniper swaps scopes on his rifle and is able to keep accuracy without sighting it in.

Any WW2 movie where the Germans are firing their machine guns non-stop. They fired them in bursts.

Any movie where the hero is running through a bunch of guys shooting at him with automatic weapons and rifles and missing yet he’s picking them off with a handgun while running. I also think it’s funny in almost every movie where there’s a bad guy, that bad guy is always the last one left to square off with the hero. Hundreds of bad guys get killed, but they always manage to not get the one they should be going after the most.

John Ford’s Midway where he shows aerial combat scenes with planes not yet in service, like F4U Corsairs but maybe he deserves a break since he used actual war footage.

In the recent Midway remake which used CGI and thus, has no excuse, had Devastator’s armed with both a torpedo and bombs.

Any movie scene from inside an allegedly moving vehicle. As soon as I see a static scene against a movie backdrop, I check out.

That’s like cowboy movies where they are on a horse, at full gallop shooting their revolver and hitting people. And not just shooting, but jerkingly projecting their arm out when they pull the trigger. Also, horses never seem to get shot.

And the hero never gets shot unless he gets grazed. Amazing how these bad guys got to be bad guys when they’re such poor shots…if that bad, they likely would have been killed the first time they tried to rob something.

Not a movie, but the Hunter TV series used the same dummy shot falling from a building in 3 different episodes.

It is amazing how many movies set in the Civil War and earlier have muskets that never have to be reloaded.

The recent Napoleon movie where, with two shots, French artillery blows the tops off two pyramids. Never happened and artillery was not that accurate.

Recent Midway movie. Apparently American carrier groups did not use any fighter aircraft. All they show are torpedo and dive bombers.

When they are out of bullets, why do bad guys in westerns throw their guns?

Why is it henchmen never get wounded? They always die immediately. The main villain, not so much.

WWII movies that use more modern tanks. IIRC, the Battle of the Bulge movie used M60 tanks and not mock ups of period correct German or US tanks.

Actually the movie “Patton” used M60’s, although Battle of the Bulge did use other modern US tanks.

1930s to the 70s. Cars are running away and driver throws his arms in front of his face and screams just before crash.

60s and 70s detectives and spies fight runaway vehicle. Why not just reach down and turn off key. Same with screamers and crash.

Retarded.

There was an old low budget western I watched. It was based around 1875 and as the stagecoach was pulling away they panned to a long shot. What they didn’t edit out was the 1950’s station wagon parked behind the fake stage depot.

That also happened in Cisco Kid. As Pancho and Cisco are chasing villains , no one noticed vehicles driving on the highway behind the trees.

Charles Bronson, Borderline. If you look closely at the front of the white truck, you can see divots where the fx charges are planted that later become bullet holes as Ed Harris shoots up the truck.

Face off. John travolta and Nicholas cage survive but every single other person in the movie dies.
