During a conversation with Rose, Jack reveals that he and his father went ice fishing out on Lake Wissota, a real lake in Wisconsin. The problem is Lake Wissota is a man-made reservoir that was created five years after the Titanic sank, in 1917.
The Statue of Liberty would have still had a brownish colour as it wasn’t yet fully green in 1912, the world map in the radio room shows countries with 1997 names and borders, and Rose admires a Monet, 'The Nymphs' - which wasn't painted until 1915.

For someone who is nitpicking, you might want to remember that NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is spelled with all capitals. Hey! Splitting hairs is fun!

In Titanic, Rose pays for her portrait with a Roosevelt Dime, not yet created. Also, in Gladiator, women are shown sitting in all levels of the Coliseum. Only the Vestal Virgins and Caesar's wife were allowed to sit in any tier other than the fourth level, where all the slaves sat.

If we are being picky The Green Mile was not based on a short but on a novel broken down into smaller parts.

Good feature - but I am going to join in with the nitpicking and tell you that the word is Scandinavian and not Scandenavian. I know that, and I am not even a Scandinavian. J.

In Almost Famous, those aren't post it notes. They're squares of yellow legal paper, as explained by Crowe himself on the commentary.

Gladiatorial combat ceased to exist 200 years after the events of Gladiator how could they have only started wearing helmets 700 years later when the Roman Empire didn't even exist anymore. Also how can a list about anachronism be missing Public Enemies. That movie is incredibly inaccurate timeline wise
