During this holiday break, I've been privileged to lay back long enough to even see bits of a few movies, especially since my mum is a movie buff. I offer you the following observations:
This last one is nit-picky, but some things need to be called out by ear:
When Jason runs with a shotgun and scans a field for movement as he seeks out a Treadstone assassin ("The Professor") in a meadow. The geographical setting is a European countryside (French?) in the morning, and the birds are singing. Among them, you can clearly hear an Eastern Wood Peewee (the link goes to Cornell's species account).
Either the scene took place in North America (the bird is native to this continent), or someone hastily took stock audio from the U.S. outdoors and put it into the scene.
This scene merits attention for other reasons, but I have a hard time articulating my thoughts about it since it' captures a mix of fairly violent and heavy moments.
- Why is the newest Karate Kid movie about kung fu?
- In Secretariat, Pancho Martin, the challenging owner looks just like Vladmir Putin.
- Mothra was a decent being and kept promises.

- There's an audio goof in the Bourne Identity.
