#1)Scenes where crowd extras inappropriately stare at the principal(s) as if to say, "Hey, that's De Niro!" Or else, they have inappropriate expressions, such as smiling and laughing (all the while following the camera's eye) as they storm an embassy (or military objective) to attack the inhabitants;
#2) Microphone visible at top edge of screen. This happened in TWO big budget Hollywood movies in the cuts I saw: "War of the Roses; "As Good as it Gets."
Both cases are inexcusable, especially #2: don't these guys run "dailies" or edit films anymore?
