Saving Silverman picture

Other mistake: When Judith is locked in J.D. and Wayne's basement, she is first wearing a long night gown and she is chained at the ankle to an engine. Then she is given a box of clothes to use and she is next seen wearing shorts - how did she put them on if she was chained at the ankle? (00:45:10)

Bridget Jones's Diary picture

Other mistake: Bridget has a large, fabulous flat in what another mistake contribution has identified as a trendy area of London - just around the corner from Borough Market - and there's no way she could afford it on her salary of assistant at a publisher's office. Her parents are ordinary, middle class folk; there is no way they could afford the £2000+ per month rent on a huge flat like Bridget's, and there is no indication that they are doing so.

Suggested correction: Who says she pays for it herself? Her parents are rather well off. Surely they can help her afford a decent flat.

From where do you get the idea that her parents are wealthy? They are ordinary middle class country folk. A flat like Bridget's would cost the 2024 equivalent of about £2,700 a month - about £1700 at 2001 prices. That is well beyond the visible means of her parents.

Making up deus ex machina explanations for blatant mistakes does not invalidate them. Bridget's parents are ordinary, middle class country folk. The thought that they could subsidize their daughter to the tune of £2000+ a month is laughable. The posting is absolutely correct.

Holiday in the Sun picture

Other mistake: In the beginning, the girls arrive at the airport in Chicago and you can see a billboard in the background. Then the credits roll and they land in the sunny Bahamas and as they are driving away in the limo, the same billboard can be seen in the background. Guess they were on a tight budget and had to computer generate the snow over a scene filmed in the Bahamas.

The Princess Diaries picture

Other mistake: At the end of the movie, when Mia is observing her new palace, the Genovian flag is fluttering on its top. But as the plane circles, the angle of the flag should change, but it doesn't. Obviously a CGI error.

The Man Who Sued God picture

Other mistake: Near the start of the film Billy Connelly hurts his foot. He can't walk without using a crutch, but not that long after he hurts it he manages to drive without any bother. Would this not be a danger to drivers, and how can he drive so well only a short while after a sharp piece of wood has just gone through his foot?

Kissing Jessica Stein picture

Other mistake: Near the end of the movie, there is a party scene in which Jessica and her ex-boyfriend are talking on the roof of the building. Behind them is a sign posted by the door to the roof. The letters are reversed, as if you're reading the sign through a mirror.

Joe Dirt picture

Other mistake: When Joe falls on the bungie, we see him hit his head in an entirely vertical position with his head at the top. This could not have been achieved considering the position he was in in the shot before.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back picture

Other mistake: During the credits of the movie, after Morris Day points to Jay and Silent Bob, there is an Asian guy jumping up and down at the far right hand corner. The shot switches back to Morris Day and when the shot goes back to Jay and Bob the Asian guy is wearing a light beige hat. The extra submitted this entry himself - he was wearing the hat during the shots. Then after several takes someone in costumes noticed it was a major logo ("No Fear") so he had to take it off. The shot was used before he had his hat on. (01:36:00)
