6 audio problems - chronological order

(2 votes)

Audio problem: When George starts to chase Jill he has a huge mouthful of apple, but in the next two shots he's cackling and smiling, with there being no time for him to have chewed and swallowed. Also, although he cackles when he runs, his lips do not move at all, as it was obviously dubbed later. (00:07:20)

Super Grover

Audio problem: At the party, when Jill and Johnny Pope are talking on the tennis court, after she asks, "When do you go to Egypt?" the audio we hear does not match his mouth movements at all. (01:22:20)

Super Grover

Audio problem: When the cleaners pull up in front of Jackie's home, we hear the audio of the two dogs barking and yelping, but the dogs are in full view and they are both lying down quietly, not moving at all. (01:41:40)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When Lorna yells that she's nothing like her mother, in the wide shot she's holding the carrot in her right hand and she starts to sway her left hand. Yet in the next close-up as she sways her hand around, the carrot is now in her left hand. Also, the carrot changes size throughout this scene, regardless of the fact that it's being eaten. (00:49:30)

Felicia: Oh god, Lester you are a miserable human being. You're not helping anybody! You're just twisting arms here for a lot of silly sons of bitches who are all out for themselves. You're kidding yourself if you think your new business partner is going to keep his hands off your girl. Or if she's going to keep her hands off him.
