Continuity mistake: In the shot before Josh hands in his preregistration sheet, he is not wearing his cross necklace around his neck. It was in shots prior to that, and is the focal point of the scene with the preregistration sheet. But in the shot where he is just walking, his clothes and all are the same, but no necklace. (00:03:30)
Continuity mistake: When Cheryl emerges from the store and begins talking to the club representative distributing flyers, the lemonade she is holding has the cap off in one shot, then on in the next. It switches hands and then disappears entirely. The flyer she holds also switches hands.
Continuity mistake: There is a scene where the family is talking in the kitchen while Colton is drawing a picture. The picture he is drawing changes suddenly as well as the color of the crayon in Colton's hand during a split second shift to another character and back to Colton.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Corvus kidnaps Cassia and is racing through the city on his chariot, the street he is travelling down is completely devoid of rubble, bodies, and anything else that was already shown to be strewn across all of the streets.
Continuity mistake: Soon after Jane meets Stephen at the beginning of the film she writes her telephone number on a napkin. Later when he looks at the number it is written much more clearly.
Continuity mistake: The necklace Stefan gives Maleficent appears and disappears as she is flying around the Moors. This is just after she gets the true love kiss.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Logan carries Veronica into her room and covers her with the blanket, she is fully clothed. When she comes out to ask him, "don't go," and then kisses him, she is not wearing pants and has a different shirt.
Audio problem: When Jonas first shows Lily how to dance, then caught and asked what he is doing, Lily responds with "Jonas says it's called dancing." The audio is added in in post production. Lily is smiling at Jonas without moving her lips. (00:37:00)
Factual error: When Rosie calls Big Al's number, she gives his address as 41 Ocean Avenue in Howard Beach, Queens. Ocean Avenue runs from Prospect Park to Sheepshead Bay, entirely in Brooklyn, and does not enter Howard Beach. (01:05:00)
Factual error: At the diner scene at the Gimli Slider, there's an ashtray with a lit cigarette on the table. Manitoba has had a smoking ban in all enclosed public spaces for over a decade.
Continuity mistake: When Max is on the train, after finding out about the stitcher, he's next to a poster ad that has people in it. After the shot of the couple kissing, the poster ad has changed to just having words on it. The person standing next to the seats changes too, and then in the final shot is gone. (00:21:55)
Factual error: "Can't take my eyes off you" was released in May 1967. The recording scene of this song shows an Ampeg SVT amplifier in the background. Ampeg SVT was not available before 1969 and the specific model shown on the scene (with white rocker toggle) is a later 1976-1979 model. (01:54:10)
Continuity mistake: Ben Bart passed away earlier in the film but can be seen dancing on stage with the character Gertrude, at a James Brown concert where he is performing "I Got Soul (Super Bad) ". (01:46:00)
Suggested correction: During that sequence, they intercut James in his gold jumpsuit, with long hanging-down hair, and James in a black-and-white checked vest, doing the same song. In the black-and-white vest era, Ben Bart is still alive, so the dancing could have been from that era.
While that does seem to be the case, it should be pointed out that Ben Bart died in 1968, but the song James Brown is singing, "Super Bad", was recorded in 1970.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the mother introduces Mason to her college professor, the class ends at 1:35 according to the clock on the wall. In the span of a few seconds as Mason and her mother walk to the front of the classroom the clock shows 1:55.
Suggested correction: The class was not over yet. After the clock showed 1:35 PM, the lecture continued about Pavlov's dogs, (un) conditional response, salivation, and the professor asking the class for another example, etc. The class emptying the room would also take a few minutes. Film time might not have been 20 minutes, but the clock showing 1:55 PM indicated that the class was over at this point. Liv and Mason then went to the front of the room.
I saw 1:38 PM, then class might have been over. It would not take 17 minutes for the classroom to empty (maybe 5 minutes or so). Change your wording to reflect this, and your mistake will be valid.
Continuity mistake: The Judge and son are standing by the side of the road and there's a black bag on the ground between them. When they leave there is no bag on the ground.
Factual error: Brian Wilson's panic attack on the airplane takes place circa 1964. However, the interior of the plane had distinctive sculpted doors on the overhead bins, a style first introduced in 1983 on the Boeing 757.
Continuity mistake: The sheriff wears his badge over his left side, which is traditional. As he is approaching on horse in the final scene of the movie it is still on his left side. Then for a few seconds in one shot his badge is on the right. (01:23:10)
Factual error: When Jess meets her father and Martin on the embankment it is twenty to five in the afternoon, however this is between New Years Day and Valentines Day - it would be dark at this time of day in these months.
Factual error: The helicopter flown is a Bell 407. The movie is set in '88 and the first flight of this type was 1994.
Factual error: About 20 minutes in, the group find a Welsh miners' group in the phone book. The character who is making the call speaks the first two digits of the phone number: "0, 1,..." The movie is set in 1984, when the dialling code for that district was "0639" In that year, "01" was the code for London, not Wales.
