The Cat in the Hat picture The Cat in the Hat mistake picture

Other mistake: When the things clean Mom's dress, the purple goo goes directly onto the couch on the right side of the room. After Conrad asks about the couch, and the camera pans over to the now filthy couch, look at the end table and lamp. They were in the direct line of fire, but didn't get touched. Also, look closely at the lamp. It appears to be a piece of thin lumber cut into a lamp shape.

Other mistake: While asking Napoleon to pull him into town, Kip is putting on his roller blades. They live on a gravel road seen in other shots which would be impossible to rollerblade on while being towed behind a bike.

Ghost Town picture

Other mistake: When Dr. Pincus looks at the three laxative bottles, there's a close-up of one of the bottles. The label on the bottle reads "Take 1 tablet daily with a glass of water" and "Qty: 50". Doesn't sound like a label for a liquid solution. (I noticed this in normal playback then paused to confirm it.) (00:09:10)

St. Trinian's picture

Other mistake: After Kelly and the twins climb out of the sewer tunnel and hear footsteps, the twins sit atop the steel grating pretending to cry while the rest hide below. All the walls and paintings behind the twins are the very same ones behind Kelly, Taylor and Andrea later, when they've finally reached their target painting, in a different area of the gallery. We can even see the square of wood planks covering the area of the steel grating seen earlier. (01:13:35 - 01:24:00)

The Stuff picture

Other mistake: When the fake TV ads for the Stuff are shown, the container states "1 Pint (.474ml)". 0.474ml is about an eyedropper drip of liquid. The decimal point shouldn't have been there.

Gone in 60 Seconds picture

Other mistake: When Memphis and Kip are hiding from Johnny B and his crew in the cafe following the ambush, Memphis devises a plan to make good an escape. He sends Kip out to use the tow cable on the heavy tow rig to destroy Johnny B's Mercedes. First angle shows a cable wrapped around a rear A-arm of the vehicle and the hook connected to the cable, the next shows a hook directly attached to the front axle, which is the one that gets torn from the Mercedes when the tow rig pulls away. Additionally, a different cabling rig and loose cabling used in the stunt are strewn behind the car. So even if Kip somehow made 2 connections without being seen or heard, the rear rig is different than the one shown in the first shot. (00:51:00 - 00:53:00)
