We've all been there: Sitting on the couch with our parents, watching the latest blockbuster, when all of a sudden a sex scene plays out on screen. Regardless of how old you are, you can't help but feel embarrassed as your cheeks get red and you start feeling hot. You don't dare look at your parents while the characters are going at it on screen. In fact, you just resort to pretending you have no idea what sex is.
But those days are about to be far behind you, thanks to a new website called Cringe Movie Database (aka CringeMDb).
The site, which was inspired by the Internet Movie Database (IMDb), lets users know if a film they want to watch is safe to watch with their parents (because looking at ratings is too hard). Essentially, the site certifies movies as either "parent-safe" or "cringeworthy." All you have to do to get results is type in the name of the movie -- as long as it was made between 1995 and 2015 -- and voila! You get a yes or no answer in a matter of seconds.
CringeMDb
We decided to give the site a shot, and here's what we learned: "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is "parent-safe" while "Eyes Wide Shut" is not (but that one was obvious). According to CringeMDb, though, high school classic "Mean Girls" is also certified "cringeworthy," as is "Twilight: Breaking Dawn, Part 1," which plenty of parents probably brought their 12-year-olds to see. The first "Twilight" film was OK, though.
CringeMDb
So while it's clearly not perfect yet, users can agree or disagree with the answers they receive, which will likely just make the algorithm that runs the app better at certifying films down the line. There will always be a margin of error, though, as different people have different opinions on what they would and wouldn't watch with their parents.
Regardless, this app sure would have come in handy that time we agreed to watch "Black Swan" with our parents.

The Wizard of Oz (1939)
During the sequence where Dorothy meets the Scarecrow, her pigtails are first short (above her shoulders), but as the song progresses her hair gets longer (below her shoulders), then short, and then long again. Talk about a crazy hair day.

Perhaps even more obvious, during the scene when Dorothy and Scarecrow are fighting with the trees, Scarecrow says "I'll show you how to get apples" and he gets hit by the apples. In the very next shot, it is quickly revealed that Dorothy is not wearing her ruby slippers.

Teen Wolf (1985)
"Family Guy" even made a joke about this one, with a Yoda character claiming this was the best scene in the whole movie.Many fans originally believed that this was a male extra exposing himself, but in versions with a taller shot you can see that the extra is a woman, and that white triangle is some sort of cloth.

Back to the Future (1985)
In 1995, when Marty is standing over his father's bed persuading him to date Lorraine, there is a hair-dryer in Marty's belt that seems to disappear between different frames (Note: the hair dryer's cord leading to Marty's right hand, as he holds it behind his back).
[This scene was originally longer, including a part where Marty removed the hair dryer from his belt. Still a mistake, but there's the explanation at least].

Back to the Future Part III (1990)
The character's name is Verne Brown and he is played by Dannel Evans. Much speculation has taken place as to just what Evans is doing in this scene, but the consensus seems to be that he just had to go to the bathroom. In the "Back to the Future" animated series, the character of Verne is actually a troublemaker. Perhaps this "mistake" is actually canon. But from the desperate look on that kid's face, it's doubtful.
