I was watching the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen a couple days ago. Everyone is on the Nautilus, on the surface, and Nemo says, "The solar panels are charged. We can get underway."

Never registered in my head before.

    Actually he meant that they were charged on his VISA. Submerging would sever his 4G link and he had to wait until the transaction was complete.

    If that's the only mistake you noticed in that movie you just weren't paying attention! :p

    Honestly I wish I could get that 110 minutes of my life back.

    It was the only 'renewable energy' blooper I noticed. Or course the rest makes one squirm in their seat, like how a 100 ft tall submarine cruises around Venice without dragging bottom. :confused:
