Movie 'goofs' with cars......

[rx8er]

Sorry guys, this may have been already done on here :dunno: .

Seeing as I own a 2005 Blue RX8 I just had to watch the X-Men 2 dvd right ;) .

Any way, I spotted this 'goof' with the rear licence plate :clap: . I understand that quite a bit of the movie was shot in Canada so perhaps some of u guys may recognise the plate - even though its up-side down AND back to front :eek: . How the fcuk did they manage that :confused: .

Answers and other goofs here please :thumbsup:

It's not on backwards. It's a reversed frame. We do that sometimes for continuity, sometimes to make the scene more interesting, whatever, but it is very possible and actually quite common to take a scene and mirror it horizontally.

An example: guy enters apartment from scene right, but in the previous scene the door to enter the apartment would make it on the left of the scene. So, instead of a reshoot, just flip the scene. That's what happaned there in the X-Men 2 shot. They just reversed a scene :D

[/////AMG]

I've never noticed that before, don't know how you did rx8er lol

[Vagabond142]

Well, with a name like his, he probably plays that scene 20 times a day :D

[rx8er]

^ Err............. 25+ times per day actually mate :D . Thanks for the explanation tho', vey good :thumbsup: . R u involved in movies then Vagabond142 ?

:werd: It's reffered to as the action axis. That's what I was looking for as well...but you can't read them emblems on the back of the car. I was expecting them to be backwards.

PS, BB1 is a the chasis code for a Prelude.

Rx8er: In the independant scene here in Calgary, yes. I've worked on ~15 movies, directed a couple, and am (hopefully) gonna be out of the homework and able to finish writing the last edit of my next screenplay sometime before the second coming :rolleyes: Bloody University <_<

Basically Fast and Furious is one huge movie about car goofs...

in 2F2F if you watch the car scene where they're all coming out of the garage from the helicopter view they have some of the same cars over and over again with CGI

BB1-BB4 (not sure if there is a 5) is the chassis code for 4th Gen preludes.. BB6 is the code for 97-01 Preludes.

best one here i found from 2F2F...when at the Tej's gargage while modifying those muscle cars, they do an undercarriage shot front the rear to the front, and paul walker is under the front of the car...anyway

one header is attached to the exhaust, the other one isnt, i believe the left one isnt

liek i could understand "open header" with a phony exhaust to fool police.....but one open and one not?

f**k up

ciao

in F&F 1: Their standing in front a bunch of Acura Integras with empty engine bays, asking were they can get Nissan SR20 engines.

Danger to manifold and the damn floor board comes off.

Motec system exhaust

theres so many in f&f

in the beginning when you first see the three civics, you can see the shadow of the camara man/truck on the road

when toretto is walkin out of the parkin garage, a crown vic police car drives past him but a caprice does the sweat smokey turn

the seats in the s14 change back and forth at 'race wars'
