Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Battle Beyond the Stars — The entry states the film was released on July 25, 1980, but the actual release date was September 26, 1980.

Battle Beyond the Stars — The entry says the film earned five Saturn Award nominations, but it actually received four nominations.

BraveStarr: The Movie — The entry states that a PAL European version was released on a Region 1 DVD, but PAL is a European format incompatible with Region 1 (US/Canada); the actual release was an NTSC Region 1 DVD.

Cowboy Bebop: The Movie — The film's Japanese subtitle is 'Heaven's Door', not 'Knockin' on Heaven's Door'. The Japanese title is 'Cowboy Bebop: Tengoku no Tobira' (Heaven's Door). The Bob Dylan song is 'Knockin' on Heaven's Door', but the film's subtitle was never that.

Cowboy Bebop: The Movie — The film was announced in September 1999 is unconfirmed by widely-known canon; the first public announcement was in 2000. No reliable source confirms a September 1999 announcement.

Cowboys & Aliens — Harrison Ford did not appear in 'A Time for Killing' (1967) or 'Journey to Shiloh' (1968); his first credited film role was in 'Dead Heat on a Merry-Go-Round' (1966).

Cowboys & Aliens — The claim that the film resulted in a $75–80 million loss for both Universal and DreamWorks is inaccurate; the loss was a combined total, not split per studio, and the phrasing is ambiguous.

John Carter (film) — The production budget is commonly reported as $250 million, not $263 million; the $263 million figure may include marketing costs.

Moon Zero Two — The asteroid is described as 'pure ceramic sapphire' in the entry, but the film only refers to it as a 'sapphire asteroid', which is a factual inaccuracy.

Oblivion 2: Backlash — The claim that Julie Newmar drew on her experience of running a real estate agency for her portrayal of Miss Kitty is not supported by widely-known canon or reliable sources; this appears to be an invented or unverified detail.

Space Adventure Cobra: The Movie — The film is not the first anime to use Quadraphonic Dolby Surround sound; it is often cited as the first anime to use Dolby Stereo, but 'Quadraphonic Dolby Surround' is a misnomer or inaccurate description of the format.

Space Adventure Cobra: The Movie — Matthew Sweet's 1991 music video 'Girlfriend' did not use excerpts from this film; it used footage from the 1965 Japanese film 'The Birth of Japan' (also known as 'The Three Treasures'), not 'Space Adventure Cobra: The Movie'.
