Movie Trivia/Goofs

As a pilot, early in the film, Ned Plimpton wears a Rolex GMT Master. This watch is popular with airline pilots for calculating time zones. By the end of the film, he has given up the GMT and plumped for a Rolex Submariner, for obvious reasons.
Movie Goof (revealing mistake): When the crew is examining the sunken aircraft, we see the black box which is labeled "Black Box". In reality, airline "black box" flight recorders are colored bright orange.
Movie Goof (revealing mistake): When Steve and Ned are in the helicopter, they're supposedly far out in remote "unprotected waters". There's a two-masted sailboat visible over Steve's right shoulder in several shots. In the same sequence, the water beneath the helicopter is shallow and churning with brown sand, indicating this was shot very near a beach.
Alistair Hennessey (Jeff Goldblum) wears composer Mark Mothersbaugh's custom designed glasses. Without them, Mothersbaugh is legally blind.
