Character mistake: In the opening scene when John Wayne calls the other truck, the response is "go ahead John", not Sean.
Suggested correction: I listened several times and I heard "Sean" every time.
Character mistake: Sam and Maurey were watching TV news coverage of Kennedy's assassination (11/22/63). When Petey got home (around 12:05 PM MST), he tried to change the channel, then said, "Mom, Maurey won't let me watch 'Rocky'." Laurabel/Mom said, "You know he watches 'Rocky' every afternoon." But school was let out early due to the assassination, so Petey would normally be in school at noon and therefore not be able to watch "Rocky" at that time in the afternoon. (00:21:30 - 00:23:17)
Character mistake: Ashley should be smart enough to know not to wear high heels while buffing the bowling alley lane. They might break or scuff up the floor, she should've worn sneakers or sandals.
Character mistake: Lucy says the source of the quote "To err is human" as Alexander Pope's "An Essay on Man." The quote actually originates from Pope's earlier work, "An Essay on Criticism."
Character mistake: Gail reads right through Katie's poor excuse about crotcheting, and says she won't go to the ball "after what you pulled today with Guy." She did not do it (well she didn't do anything, but 'supposedly did') today, but yesterday. (00:31:00)
Character mistake: When Randy is introduced for his semi-final match, he comes out to "Rock of Ages" by Def Leppard. The announcer says the song is by the "supergroup" Def Leppard. A supergroup is comprised of band members who were previously successful solo artists or band members prior to joining this band. Def Leppard is an original band. None of the band members were famous or successful prior to this band. (00:03:00)
Suggested correction: At best, this is trivia. Perhaps if the announcer was in the music business and knew the music jargon, it could be seen as a character mistake. I myself never knew "supergroup" had a specific meaning until you mentioned it. To me, it sounded like he just thought Def Leppard was super. Like calling them a totally radical group, despite no members being radicals - someone who wants complete political or social reform.
Character mistake: When Andy calls Linda, as Linda and Steve are hooking up, he addresses her (on the answering machine) as Tammy.
Character mistake: Corinne suffers a seizure and is at the hospital with Jane at her bedside. Dr. Mitchell enters the room and, without asking what relationship Jane is to Corinne or if Corinne wants Jane to be present, proceeds to tell Corinne the results of her CT scan, referral to a neurologist, and that the hospital has a very strong oncology department. Dr. Mitchell does not take the necessary precautions to maintain Corinne's right to privacy. (00:28:16)
Character mistake: Jenna has Sparkle letters at her work. Wouldn't she get caught earlier?
Character mistake: Jean rolls, kneads, and flattens the dough a few times, repeating the steps to give the image of still preparing the dough. After the dough was flattened, it was well-shaped (round, higher, and more compact) then flat again. The way she was shaping the dough suggests she was making biscuits, but biscuit dough should not be handled that much (or the biscuits would be flat and not flaky). (00:18:00 - 00:19:00)
Character mistake: When we see the door to Elisabeth's, her name is spelled with a s. Later when Nick looks her up on the computer, it's spelled Elizabeth.
Character mistake: When Tracy's mom enters Motormouth Maybelle's place she is surprised to see her daughter. When she calls to her she says, "Tracy Edna Turnband" instead of "Turnblad."
Character mistake: Tom goes with Hannah to meet with the reverend who will be conducting the ceremony. Hannah (and the credits) say his name is Rev. Feiten. However, Tom refers to him as Rev. Flint.
Character mistake: A priest is holding a globe with a fire to light the globes carried by others. There are two lines with globes approaching the man with the lit globe. The first person in the line from the right has trouble lighting their globe. She starts to return for a second try, but apparently thinks better of it and continues on with the unlit globe.
Character mistake: The tour guide inside the "Degenerate art" exhibition ridicules the 'child-like' paintings of the likes of Mondrian and Kandinsky. In particular he stands in front of Kandinsky "Upward." The German name of the work is "Empor", but the tag says "Empore." (00:03:40)
Character mistake: Thomas rips off his one glove as he makes his escape but then grips the bottom edge of the security door to slide under it. Smooth metal door would leave perfect finger and palm prints. I doubt detectives would miss prints on a door that was normally recessed away from the public. His prints may not be on file but would be easy to obtain once he was under suspicion. (00:19:20)
Character mistake: During the military parade, check the lady behind the soldier on the left. She can't help stare at the camera the whole time before the soldiers arrive. (00:07:03)
Character mistake: When Marian is correcting Amaryllis for the girls' poor grammar in saying "can I" instead of "may I" over the cross-hand piece, the girl then asks if she can go play that cross-hand piece and Marian replies, "now you can play your cross-hand piece."
Character mistake: At the party when Michael tells a girl he's thinking of getting a Toyota Tercel, he says it has dual side airbags. The Tercel was never available with side airbags.
Character mistake: When Holly and Amber go to see Amber's uncle at the Bistro, they say the 'report' is due tomorrow. However that day will be Sunday (no school!), as previously it was mentioned that the day was Saturday.
