That's interesting you do that for every movie. I only do that for movies I am watching for the second time and over. If it's my first viewing and especially if it's in the theatres where I can't replay scenes then I do not look out for mistakes. it kills the movie. side note...when you do find an error...it's pretty funny

No i dont unless they show up automatically. I am there to enjoy and have fun and do not involve myself in giving an analytical view of the movies.

My husband is so big on that. But, I am not into that at all. I just try to enjoy the movie and not let anything distract me at all.

I do that for period movies where in I try to look for things that are not in the same period. For e.g. in one period movie called Guru which came recently, I saw a telecom poles whereas telecom poles such as those were not present in India at that time period. I also enjoy such bloopers. BTW, you can go to imdb site where in they publish the bloopers for each movie and see if you can add to that list. Cheers! Ram

Usually not. I prefer to enjoy the film. But if a mistake is too obvious, probably i will notice it.

I don't set out to spot them myself, although I do notice them especially ones such as "carry a bag" and then the cast runs away and its not their..

I also do the same and folks around me find it weird. I think I do because the film directors do take great pains for details but still, in a movie, certain mistakes would be seen. I like to find these mistakes so that I learn to me vigilant in all spheres of life. One of the commonest mistakes is change in dress during the same scene! Almost all movies would have this mistake.

I wouldnt say that I look for them. They are usualy staring you in the face its hard not to notice them. My wife really hates it when I mention them but when I see one it just blurts out. Take care, Terry

Yes! When I watch a movie I have some expectations depending on the type of movie so, yes, I look and along with my oartner point out the obvious mistakes for example, in a horro movie how credible the effects were or in a action movie how good the stunts were... There are soooooooooo many mistakes especially in horror movies - or maybe it is just me who expects more from today's movies :)
