Revealing mistake: Near the beginning of the film, when Clang is outside the Beatles' flat on his delivery bike, you can plainly see the rope tied to the front of it giving him a pull as he starts to ride off. In the next shot the rope is gone.
Revealing mistake: When Woody and Sharon are singing their 'Ol Devil Moon' duet, Sharon starts to sit up, but then the shot suddenly changes to them both sitting up, Woody in a fade behind her as she sings.
Revealing mistake: Tommy picks up a chair and breaks it on a desk, but the chair breaks just before contact. (01:25:30)
Revealing mistake: A scene in which a group of soldiers appears to be running uphill was obviously filmed with a tilted camera because all the trees in the background are leaning at a 65-degree angle.
Revealing mistake: When we first see Oliver Reed, we see his shadow first on the wall at a ramp to the pub. As his shadow spreads its legs, we then see him spreading his legs a moment later. Shadow puppetry was used by the director to give the audience the impression that he is ominous and foreboding before we ever see the man himself. (00:54:10)
Revealing mistake: During the fight, Popeye ducks Oxheart's swings. If you watch carefully, it appears to be the same swing repeated multiple times from different angles.

Revealing mistake: During the fainting scene number of the extras can be seen waving and looking at the camera.
Revealing mistake: After Scott and Tom switch places, during the drive down to the hotel, in some close-ups there's black tape covering the motorcycle's chrome trim. (00:06:35 - 00:07:10)
Revealing mistake: During "Many a New Day", when Laurie sings "many a red sun will set" and before they all hear the Cummings girl laugh outside, Laurie and two others are looking into a mirror. The actresses are actually looking into the camera through a mirror frame, to give the illusion that we are seeing their reflections. When the girl with the long black hair joins them, you see her run in from the side, then her "reflection" in the mirror. However, if it was a real mirror, you wouldn't see her run in from the side. (00:44:00)
Revealing mistake: When Pinky runs into the mirror, causing it to shatter, you can that the mirror does not shatter until Pinky falls onto the floor.
Revealing mistake: Right before Dodger walks into Georgette's room in search of Oliver, she talks to herself in the mirror. But at one point the reflection moves when she doesn't. (00:43:10)
Revealing mistake: In the intro (or one of the intros, rather), they narrate Pootie Tang's origin. A fake newspaper called "New York Pone" is shown, with the front page dedicated to baby Pootie and his invention of a new language. All fun and everything, but the prop is sloppy; you can read below the name of this fake 70s newspaper the URL of the New York Post' s website and the date in April 2001. (00:08:35)
Revealing mistake: During "Never Say Never" Henri instructs Chantal to fly Fievel to immigration where he should be able to find his family. At one point during this shot, Henri's right wing casts no shadow on the Statue of Liberty - only an outline of the wing's shadow is visible. (00:23:25)
Revealing mistake: During the first round of auditions. The gal in the yellow shorts does fine. But then suddenly during the final ballet elimination, she can't keep up with the other girls and makes mistakes before Zach kicks her off.
