Superman II (1980)

Audio problem: When the villains blow the people back in Metropolis, all the ones near the KFC restaurant (the waitress, the guy in the phone booth and the couple) shout or make comments but their mouths either don't move or are not in synch.

Superman III (1983)

Audio problem: When Gus is talking Brad into opening the glass door, the reflection of his mouth doesn't match what we are hearing.

Audio problem: Dinner with Kay. Chaplin's doing Hamlet. When he says "Perchance" audio drastically changes quality and he is not mouthing the words we hear from him.

Audio problem: In the cinema the girl that bites Chaplin's ankle starts to talk and sing, but her lips don't move.

Audio problem: When Hynkel refers to the peace treaty and says "I'll sign it," you can hear the sound quality change abruptly, and when Hynkel is saying "Napoloni the grosse peanut, the cheesy ravioli," his lips are not in sync.

Audio problem: The first time all friends are in the bedroom together Charlie says "Unless you're a genius like Meeks." Meeks replies "He flatters me so I'll help him with Latin." Halfway through this sentence the shot changes to a sideway shot of meek and his mouth isn't moving.

Audio problem: During any fight when people are yelling "Mo cuishle", watch the spectators around and you'll notice that no one is mouthing the words, or is in sync with those words. Even if the yelling came from offscreen (i.e. from the farthest bleachers) the noise should have sounded from far away, not as neat and close as it sounds.

Audio problem: The producer sings along Simon and Garfunkel's "The boxer", but changes the lines "Just a come on from the w*ores on 7th. avenue" to "just a come on from those gals on 7th avenue". I'm sure the Coen Bros. did it deliberately. And strangely enough, when the song is played during the final credits it's the original text. (00:01:15 - 01:34:50)
