Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues

Character mistake: At the end of the fight when the Channel 9 news crew shows up, Jack Lime says that they're outnumbered 3 to 1. This doesn't make any sense. Even if he's talking about the entire fight his math is off. If he's talking about who's in their group it seems to be about 9 people on Jack Lime's team, and 8 on Ron/Wes' team.

Suggested correction: There's a shot of the group when Wes says his line about his news teams emptying their gas tanks and you can count 12 people on Jack's team (there's a total of 20 people in the shot and 8 aren't on Jack's team). Jack is only talking about 12 to 4 against Wes' team, not 12 against both teams.

Factual error: When Ron starts to fume at Jack Lime; Tony Montana, from Scarface, is seeing shooting his gun, in Ron's eyes. However, Scarface (and thus Tony Montana) didn't come out till 1983 and this takes place in 1980.

Trivia: Netflix uses the International Theatrical Version of the film (which they tend to do a lot), that cuts a few jokes or changes some scenes from the US Theatrical Version. For example, instead of Tony Montana from "Scarface" in Ron's eyes, it's Frank Dux (Jean-Claude Van Damme) from "Bloodsport", which is also a mistake since the film came out in 1988.
