Character mistake: The very advanced computer on the plane can't spell, since it infers probabilities that a member of the crew has been "INFECTETED" by the creature. (01:06:40)

Rance Quest
Character mistake: In her initial cutscene when she joins, Copandon states that she bought a super-rare item that increases her level cap by 10. However, the item she is equipped with raises in fact the level cap by 20.
26th Mar 2021
College Kings
Factual error: One of the first transitions between scenes during college life is styled as a book cover the protagonists is reading. Too bad that they wrote it on the wrong page - he's not reading a manga.
26th Mar 2021
The X-Files Game (1998)
Other mistake: The suspect James Wong in international localizations of the game (Italian and Spanish that I could personally check) has two discordant dates of birth on the same official FBI file; one is 10/04/1948, the one and only in the English version, the second inside the body of the notes is 11/01/1950.
26th Mar 2021
Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express (2006)
Factual error: Roaming the Istanbul marketplace in the prologue, the protagonist Antoinette Marceau mentions that the rugs look as if they might be able to fly "like the fabled Aladdin carpet." The association between Aladdin and the magic carpet comes from the Disney movie, it's not something a lady in the 1930s would have said.
26th Mar 2021
Bang bang wo ai shen (2007)
Revealing mistake: The protagonists just had sex. The lifeline operator chats with him through MSN; notice how the timestamps of the messages do not match at all the time that supposedly elapses, going from 12:56 to 01:00 all of a sudden and even jumping from 01:01 to 01:50.
26th Mar 2021
Revelation (2001)
Factual error: When the protagonists arrive to Patmos, latitude and longitude are switched the other way around at 26°489 and 37°411. Moreover, that's not Patmos, but Anydro Patmou, an uninhabited islet unlike what is shown here.
26th Mar 2021
Heavy Metal Babes
Other mistake: The description of the in-game DVD item misspells "it's" for "its."
26th Mar 2021
Bonding (2019)
Old Friends, New Names - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Pete tells Tiff that he has so many questions. She reaches his face and holds it between her hands. She has two fingers on his ear, then her index only, then the fingertips are on his chin. (00:02:10)
26th Mar 2021
Outcast (2014)
Audio problem: The one-eyed warrior who drags the prince inside the inn says "Look who I found skulking outside", but his mouth does not open. (00:21:40)
26th Mar 2021
Outcast (2014)
Continuity mistake: When the King puts the seal in his son's hands, a longer dangling chain appears in the second shot. (00:11:20)
26th Mar 2021
Outcast (2014)
Continuity mistake: When the monk hands to the King the seal, he's holding it in different ways between shots (his right index is on the front of the seal in close-up, together with the middle in the next). (00:11:05)
26th Mar 2021
Outcast (2014)
Other mistake: It is stated by the caption ("The far East; 3 years later") that the events of most of the movie take place 3 years after the prologue. Thus, both Nicolas Cage and Hayden Christensen have made it to China and learned flawless Chinese (there's no language barrier whatsoever and they understand each other perfectly at all times) in less time than that, while being on crack and on other considerable hardships, too.
26th Mar 2021
Outcast (2014)
Other mistake: In some international versions (German, Italian) the movie is titled "The Last Templar", which does not fit at all the proposed 12th century timeframe.
26th Mar 2021
Justice League (2017)
Other mistake: The janitor, Howard, stops Dr. Stone to talk to him about the loss of his son. Look at his badge; the person on it sports a beard and sideburns and a hat, and it's "Jensen" plus initial. Later on the same janitor hears a noise inside the lab and you can see the badge picture is different and it lists the full first and last name. The first scene was a Whedon reshoot, so probably after weeks they didn't have the original prop and made another one. (00:18:55 - 00:21:15)
26th Mar 2021
Justice League (2017)
Continuity mistake: Clark is thanking Bruce for the house. They both look in the distance at Lois and Martha; there are a couple guys fetching boxes near the carpenter, on both sides of the workbench, but they are nowhere to be seen in the new closer angle. (01:45:55)
Suggested correction: Passage of time. Movies don't always show every second in real time. Martha and Lois were approaching the steps, when the boxes were being fetched. In the close-up Lois is several steps up and Martha is just stepping on them as the guys with the boxes follow. It's also depth perception. The boxes aren't near the carpenter. You can see when Clark walks up. The boxes are actually several feet in front and to the right of the carpenter. It's also very possible in the close-up, they aren't in there.
I understand the caveat about the continuity in editing since they have moved away on what would amount to a couple seconds (Lois is merely on the second step), which is a hiccup some would label error in continuity already. The boxes are not right by the workbench, but still they are near as I said; let's say the person on the left who grabbed one moved to a portion of screen where he wouldn't be visible (you do see his gloved hands); the guy in red and blue should be in frame no matter what.

Justice League (2017)
Continuity mistake: When Flash pushes the truck with the civilians, the kid has her left hand between Barry's, but at the first cut her hand is on the outside. (01:41:00)
26th Mar 2021
Justice League (2017)
Audio problem: Superman uses his heat vision against Cyborg that shot at him. Cyborg deflects it and the beam destroys a patrol car in the distance, that explodes in the background without a sound. (01:14:50)
Suggested correction: There is a sound of a small explosion. Considering the distance, and we're close to the heat ray grinding on his shield, it's pretty good sound editing. We should be hearing more of the shield anyway.
26th Mar 2021
Justice League (2017)
Continuity mistake: Flash is running to power up Superman's ship. In the wide aerial shot when he dives towards the pool (after he went past Cyborg and Aquaman with their backs turned to him) notice Diana with hair in front of both shoulders. A close-up with her and Arthur follows and her left shoulder is clear of hair. (01:12:10)
26th Mar 2021
Justice League (2017)
Character mistake: When the military security checks Flash's phony badge, his false name "Rowe, Wesley" replaces the name of one of the names in the list to the right, one "Choi, Wesley." The problem with this is that the last names this way are not in alphabetical order anymore, so Cyborg made in fact a rather poor fake, especially for such a supposedly super-powerful being who hacked the Bat-cave computer on the fly, on top of a much larger mistake with the date of birth listed as 11/06/10, and the movie is set in 2017.
