Best Laid Plans picture

Continuity mistake: The whole premise of the movie is a paradox: The main character's colleague thinks the main character has inherited a fortune, and the colleague wants that money which is why he tries to frame him by making him steal some fake drug money. BUT why would the main character run that risk, agreeing to steal the drug money? If he HAD inherited a fortune, he doesn't need a risky ten thousand bucks now, does he? Surely his friend might work out something was up when his supposedly rich friend agreed to run a risk to earn a comparatively small amount?

The Minus Man picture

Continuity mistake: The entire bar scene at the beginning of the movie contains numerous continuity errors for the props (e.g, lamp, jar of pickles) and background. The background changes and it is difficult to see what is being shown. In some views, there appear to be some kind of pillars or wooden rails/posts that are practically up to the bar and/or above Casper's head. At times, the ceiling looks domed with pictures arched/curved from the top of the wall to the domed ceiling. There is an overall lack of continuity in the bar scene.
