Luke calls the damaged droid an R2 unit, though Star Wars lore names that particular droid R5-D4.
When Owen claims that Obi-Wan died about the same time as Luke's father, Luke assumes, for some reason, that this means the two knew each other.
Threepio moves after he powers down.

The Incredible Hulk pilot
Intrepid reporter Jack McGee makes multiple requests to gain an interview with scientists David Banner and Elaina Marks for The National Register, a cheap, sensationalist newspaper beneath his talents. The scientists are studying human strength enhancement, but they refuse to grant him an interview. Jack even visits Dr. Marks's home, though it does him no good. When Dr. Banner's car is found smashed in a ditch, McGee investigates and finds enormous footprints at the scene. He further interviews a man and his young daughter who report an encounter with a 7-foot hulking greenish creature. McGee confronts Banner and Marks with a plaster cast of the prints, but they deny any knowledge of the Hulk. Convinced that the scientists are hiding something, McGee sneaks into their lab to learn more, finding evidence that the Creature had been there. Banner returns and finds Jack there, escorting the reporter outside just before the building explodes and McGee is knocked senseless. He comes to just in time to get his first look at the Hulk, which emerges from the blaze carrying Dr. Marks. McGee tries to find Dr. Banner, but it's impossible to enter the inferno. Dr. Marks is later found dead; Banner's body is never found at all. Jack makes it his mission to track down the Hulk and learn the true story of the Creature. More...

Here are some glitches from the television series The Invisible Man starring David McCallum.
Although the special effects were cutting edge for their time, you still see the occasional shoe, syringe, or other object partially disappear.
The bandage roll vanishes when it goes behind Dan's invisible arm.
The contact lenses on the tray sure look brown.
Dan's eyes are visible because he wears special contact lenses, while his teeth are caps. No mention is made, however about the inside of his mouth, which can sometimes be seen. And how do all these parts remain attached to the mask when he removes it? More...
These rebels have a much easier time defeating AT-ATs than in The Empire Strikes Back. Or are Snowspeeders simply that puny?
For the first time in the history of the Star Wars universe, there is a protective railing on a dangerous catwalk, at the top of the Citadel Tower. More...
Why doesn't Rey drive her speeder up to the star Destroyer hulk? Maybe she just enjoys sliding down the hill on her exit.
Rey is set upon by thugs who try to steal BB-8. You'd think after this she would keep the little droid within arm's reach for a while, but immediately after fighting off the would-be thieves, Rey turns her back on BB-8, almost inviting another attempt.
When the turret in the Millenium Falcon freezes, limiting Finn's ability to aim, he might try climbing up the ladder to the other gun. More...
Luke struggles to pry out something that's jammed inside R2, setting off Leia's message. Is that supposed to be the death Star plans hidden in the droid? Because that's not where Leia put them.
First Owen says he doesn't know what R2 is talking about when he mentions Obi-Wan Kenobi. Then he says that Obi-Wan is dead. Is Luke buying any of this? More...
The opening narration tells us that computers took over and ruled the City of Domes, yet we know it is governed by the Council of Elders.
The wires are visible during Carousel.
Logan could use his weapon's stun setting to simply freeze his fellow Sandman, rather than kill him.
When Logan and Jessica exit the City, they see a barren wilderness on every side and choose a random direction. Do they really expect to reach Sanctuary this way? Is this what all the other Runners do? If so, it's no wonder our heroes never find what they're looking for.
One wonders how Runners even know of Sanctuary, since no one ever returns to the City of Domes to tell them about it. More...
Here are some bloopers from Return of the Jedi:
When Han is defrosted, he's not wearing the upper-arm restraints he had when entering the carbon-freezing chamber.
Right before swinging off the barge, Luke says, "Come on," without moving his lips.
Is it an optical illusion, or can you see right through the Emperor's hand when he arrives at the Death Star?
Yoda's body, like that of Obi-Wan, vanishes at death. But Qui-Gon's didn't back in Episode I.

Ben tells Luke to go to the Dagobah System to find Yoda. But he never says which world in the system to visit. Maybe the system only has one planet.
Luckily, Luke lands his X-Wing very near to Yoda's home, considering he had an entire planet to search.
Trying to hide from the Imperials, Han flies the Falcon into a cave in an asteroid, unwittingly entering the mouth of a giant space slug. The creature or the asteroid must have its own atmosphere, because Han, Leia, and Chewie are able to walk around inside it without any type of space suit. More...

The Orb hates evil; if evil persons try to use The Orb, it eventually ages them to dust. Pilot, Fountain of Youth, Bye Bly

No film has a more famous opening than Star Wars. That crawl of text is immediately recognizable: "It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire.."
You can create your own Star Wars crawl, using any text you like. More...
