10 MCU Mistakes You Can NEVER Unsee

2. The Frozen Man (Avengers: Endgame)

Let's wrap up with a pair of pretty huge blunders from Avengers: Endgame's final battle. This incredible sequence might be the most dissected moment in MCU history, and in the two years since the movie hit cinemas, fans have noticed some rather peculiar details hidden amongst all the fighting and explosions.

One such detail can be found during the "battle charge" shot, where our heroes and villains run straight at each other as the fighting begins (above). Just as the two sides are about to collide, keep your eyes on the sword-wielding chap in the bottom-left of the shot, who - bizarrely - freezes in the middle of his run (below).

It looks as though the VFX team forgot to continue his animation, which, to be fair, is actually understandable, considering the insane amount of people featured in this shot. He just stops and stands there in a battle-ready pose, which presumably made him quite an easy target for Thanos' oncoming forces. Poor guy.

Once you notice this mistake, you'll never be able to take your eyes off it, so apologies for potentially ruining your repeat viewings of this epic moment.
