| 4 | The Incredible Hulk | When the Hulk throws Mr. Malone in the river during his second transformation, the first shot is too long and we see that he would fall a few feet from the closest river shore. But in the second shot he is flying like crazy and almost lands on the remote river shore. |
| 5 | Doctor Who (2005) | Considering the Jadoon have just walked across the Moon from their ship, there's very little Moon dust on their boots. Maybe they have advanced alien boots which repel this kind of thing. |

If you pay close attention, there is almost never <i>any</i> other traffic on the highways besides them. Very unlikely if not impossible, especially in Miami (or Los Angeles). |
