10 MCU Mistakes You Can NEVER Unsee

3. The Careless Crew Member (Doctor Strange)

Doctor Strange can use magical powers to turn back time and create portals between far-flung locations, but something he clearly can't do is make his movies blunder-free.

56 minutes into his first MCU outing, the titular hero wanders through a room full of strange relics and artefacts, coming face-to-face with the Cloak of Levitation - which is locked in a glass container - for the very first time.

At the start of this scene, there's an establishing shot that pans across the room, and here - on the right-hand side of the frame - there's a random crew member stood in full view of the camera, just staring into space. What the hell is he doing!?

It's one of those obvious mistakes that'll have you wondering how the filmmakers missed it, because the shot itself is a good few seconds long, and as you can see from the image above... the man isn't exactly well-hidden.

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!
