A Flaw

I just noticed while watching this again a flaw in it. When Felix and Oscar are just starting out on their trip together and driving in the car, Felix is icing his foot sprain and apologizes to Oscar for yelling at him. The second that the camera pans on to Oscar, you see a person in the car behind Oscar taking a picture as they drive by. Has anyone else seen this? I would imagine it wasn't meant to be in the film, and it was probably somebody taking a picture of the trailer set-up they use to shoot in car scenes in movies.

OMG, I totally missed that! I'll have to look for it if I see it again...was this when they were leaving the rent a car place?

Yep, I noticed that the first time I saw it. I get another good chuckle everytime I watch it. Wish I could find the picture that was taken.

i noticed that too. another flaw was when the car exploded. it was upside down when it blew up then right side up in another shot.

It might not have been a flaw. The car they are in is most likely on a cart being towed, and that draws attention to people driving the same road. And some kid in the back seat happens to have a camera.

That's what I think..

That's the whole point of this thread. You're rephrasing the OP.

The baggage claim shots were shot at Orange County John Wayne Airport and not LAX as denoted under the filming locations.
