Trivia

Mel Gibson makes a brief (nearly hidden) appearance in the Apocolypto trailer. Click the pause button when the screaming monkey appears (a little bit after the pregnant woman, but before the solar eclipse) then use the left arrow (button) to step the video back, frame by frame, to the guys painted white. Step back another frame or two and you'll see Mel, with a lot of beard, smoking a cigar.  »

Goofs

Continuity: The "sick" girl they meet has her hair covering her right ear, then showing it, covering it again, in subsequent shots.  »
