The biggest error though is the bag inflating like a balloon, and floating too, I know hoover bags of that age were good at holding air inside and not letting it out, but I don't think it'd hold THAT much... :P | ||

I think it was intended as a comedy, rather than a documentary...? To most people, a vacuum's a vacuum! | ||

The common error I see with vacuums in movies is that often they are being used in the background and the bag is not inflated! The prop guys may have connected the headlight to some battery, but they seem to ignore the bag.
I think I remember a scene in "Mrs. Doubtfire" where Robin Williams is using a Hoover Elite or something similar on a carpet, but the attachment hose is still stuck in it's port! No suction is making it to the floor in that configuration! | ||

Heres the Mrs. Doubtfire Elite. I used my Eureka Boss Lite A LOT with the hose plugged into the port! (That would explain why I thought it was a crappy vacuum! :P) Sorry, the pic is a little small.

and for Hoover bags-the vinyl was perforated-so it can't inflate like a balloon. | ||
