The Bad News Bears (2005)
1 continuity mistake
Directed by: Richard Linklater
Starring: Billy Bob Thornton, Greg Kinnear, Marcia Gay Harden, Sammi Kane Kraft
Deliberate mistake: When Buttermaker goes to the trunk of his car to get the new team jerseys, he opens a box sitting on top of a pile of stuff. There is no way that this box would have fit in the trunk with all of this stuff and closed properly. The front of the car was loaded with Buttermaker and some of his team, so it couldn't have fit on the seats, either.
Tanner Boyle: My dad says the only people who put ketchup on hot dogs are mental patients, and Texans.
Trivia: Buttermaker gets a gentleman's club for the team's sponsor but one of the many sponsors he looks into first is Chico's Bail Bonds which was the team sponsor in the 1976 version of the movie.
