Immaculate picture

Continuity mistake: Sister Cecilia is lying on the medical bed as the pregnancy is discovered. Father Sal Tedeschi whispers, "He believes you," as the cardinal says that it's a miracle. Álvaro Morte's hand is touching Sydney Sweeney's veil. She does not move her head in the reverse angle, but when we get back to the previous, the hand of the padre is far more distant. (00:35:50)

Continuity mistake: When the milkman is drinking milk in the bar and talking to the Tony the Tiger actor, the amount of milk in his glass changes with the different camera angles. It goes from 2/3 full to mostly full to half full back to mostly full. (00:54:56 - 00:55:45)

Love Lies Bleeding picture

Plot hole: Given contestants were carefully checked for steroids at show time, mainly by urine tests, it seems unlikely Jackie would have been allowed to compete once her steroid use was discovered.

Venom: The Last Dance picture

Deliberate mistake: The movie reprises the mid-credits scene of Spiderman: No Way Home. However, it's a reshoot, since the delivery of the lines and the flow of the conversation are different, and so is the way Eddie returns to the SSU from the MCU. Instead of dissolving into thin air on the spot because of Strange's spell (like everyone else), here he gets violently sucked in by a portal. Also, in No Way Home, he was leaving behind a seedling of his symbiote on the counter of the MCU bar, but in this movie this happens in his own universe.

Factual error: Near the end of the film, each time Harker pulls the trigger to shoot, the magazine doesn't spin to load a new bullet. This is especially noticeable when she tries to shoot the doll.

A Quiet Place: Day One picture

Continuity mistake: When Samira and Eric arrive at the jazz club, Eric sits Samira down and then goes outside. A drum kit can be seen with "East Harlem Best" written on the front. Right after he leaves and right before Samira stands up to plug her iPod in, a bar stool has suddenly appeared in front of the drum kit. Eric will move this same bar stool in front of the drum kit himself again later on in the scene.

Lake George picture

Other mistake: As Don is driving towards Washington with Phyllis restrained in the passenger seat, Phyllis keeps on talking about what's going to happen if Don doesn't kill her. Don starts having a panic attack and closes his eyes, even though he is driving. His eyes are shut for nearly 20 whole seconds. How did he stay on the road? (00:28:23)

The Watchers picture

Factual error: She's driving down the highway, and her car suddenly and immediately dies, with no opportunity to pull off or park. When she gets out of the car, we see it sitting on the bare forest floor - not even a footpath, much less a road. 14. (00:14:30)

Continuity mistake: When Elphaba is getting off the boat and walking towards Shitz, we see everyone in front of her part, and she has a clear path directly to the back of Glinda. In the next shot, which is in front of Glinda, people are standing right behind her and part later.
