    Didn't the poster change over the years?

    Raquel Welsh wasn't it?

    Edit:

    Yes indeed it was, and the film was One Million Years BC.

    I deserve a cookie for that I think. :)

    Well no actually,
    Red got him the second poster of Raquel Welch as a welcome back present after he spent time in the hole.

    The most known goof in that film is of course:

    How did Andy get the poster back up on the wall after he had crawled into the tunnel to escape??

    This is pretty close (but don't think it's the exact same!) to the poster on the wall:

    I stand corrected.

    He didn't need to get the poster back up on the wall as he never took it down.When it shows digging out the wall he is standing with his head under the poster. It was stuck to the wall at the top so in order to escape all he has to do is lift it up climb in to his tunnel and and the poster would fall back against the wall again.

    Yep, I think it was on that level that ends with Duke getting into a submarine.

    Spot on indeed, was just going to explain that but saw your post :D
    The film covers explained it all very easily,

    My only complaint is when it came out on DVD, when the opening menu comes on the screen for the DVD it gives away the ending of the whole film, wtf like???
    anyone else know what I mean or do I need to provide screens shots ;)

    Other then that its one of the best films of all time and is in my top 2,
