10 MCU Mistakes You Can NEVER Unsee

5. Smile For The Camera! (Thor: Ragnarok)

Thor: Ragnarok is one of the funniest movies in the MCU, but at the same time, it also contains one of the franchise's darkest events, with Thor's home getting completely annihilated by Surtur at the end of the movie.

It's during this sequence that we find our next mistake. When Asgard gets blown to smithereens and Korg quips "those foundations are gone - sorry", there's a shot of the surviving citizens gazing forlornly at their fallen planet (above).

At a glance, there's nothing unusual about this shot, but look a little closer and you'll spot something out of the ordinary. More specifically, take a look at this fella at the back of the crowd (below), who stares right into the camera for the majority of the shot, which lasts for a good few seconds.

Hilariously, he then tries to brush it off and look away from the camera, but too late buddy! We noticed.

Either this man was determined to end up on a movie mistakes list one day, or he simply started daydreaming mid-shoot, and accidentally stared down the lens.

In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
