Watching a movie is the best way to tune out the rest of the world for a couple of hours. Having a hard time at home? Watch a movie! Bogged down with tons of work? Let a film help you procrastinate.
Movies take us out of our lives and bring us into the slightly more interesting lives of fictitious characters. That’s why it’s always a drag when the fourth wall is broken we see something we shouldn’t see. Though film crews try as hard as they can to avoid mistakes, a few blunders still slip through the cracks and end up on the big screen.
Yes, this happens in almost every movie. Don’t believe it? Look no further than your favorite films.
Gladiator
I don’t remember film crew members serving as spectators at the Colosseum in ancient times.
I also don’t remember anyone wearing jeans, either.
Spy Kids
This boom operator is the real spy here.
Braveheart
Remember the brave man who fought alongside William Wallace in a baseball hat?
Troy
Somebody in ancient Troy somehow got their hands on a radio.
Jurassic Park
Raptors travel in packs, and sometimes they even have people hold their tails for them.
The Matrix
Is that a camera, or a glitch in the Matrix?
Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl
What’s that modern-looking gentleman doing on the Black Pearl?
The Twilight Saga: New Moon
There’s something you need to know about vampires’ girlfriends: They’re always in good company, and they’re always armed with a mic wire.
Titanic
Jack and Rose are trying to get off the ship, but the film crew is going down with it.
During their time on the Titanic, the camera men at least got to enjoy looking in on a fancy gala.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Ignore this muggle and his camera.
Men In Black II
Upside-down, or wearing a harness? You decide!
The Fast and the Furious
They take their lives a quarter mile at a time, but with extra precautions.

I don’t know about you, but I’m going to queue up Gladiator tonight and find out what happened to that denim-clad warrior.
