Continuity mistake: When Cherry gets up from the dinner table, after Sam asks her who invented Vaseline, the position of the small red napkin on the table changes, and the angle it lies at is different. (00:03:50)
Continuity mistake: When Cherry and Sam begin to kiss and roll around in the bubbles in the kitchen, between a wideshot and closeup, the amount of bubbles on the side of Cherry's head signifcantly increases. (00:04:55)
Continuity mistake: When E. Johnson and Sam get hauled into the huge water chute, they get out of the car and begin to descend down, when they slip, and slide down. Sam's suitcase opens as they fall. In the next shot as it slides down, it is closed.
Visible crew/equipment: During the shots when E. Johnson and Sam leave Glory Hole, to travel to Zone 7, there are two shots from the side of road showing Johnson's car fly past. In both, you can see the cameramans shadow on the ground. (00:25:40)
Continuity mistake: During the opening credits, we see Cherry apply a very dark shade of red lipstick on. When Richard gets home, her lipstick is a much lighter shade of red; almost a pale pink. (00:01:20)
Continuity mistake: During the opening dinner scene, between shots the wine glass beside Sam's placing keeps on disappearing between shots. In frontal shots the wine glass is not there, in reverse shots it is. (00:03:10)
Continuity mistake: When Johnson is fixing the plane at the garage, she wipes her face, and gets a big blue smear left on her face. Between the two shots before we see her wiping the smear off, the appearance of the smear completely changes between shots. (01:12:10)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Sam is trying to make his escape from the Sky Ranch with E & 6FJ, Sam grabs one of the cans of gas, pours some along the cars, and then sticks a rag into the spout lights it and puts it inside the door of the beehive. When Sam first lights the rag, the flames immediately move up the rag to the spout. As he lifts the can to the deck, we can see the fire is now *only* at the tip of the rag, and continues there as he pushes it inside the beehive, and then as it explodes, we see the fire again go up the rag to the spout (then boom).
Continuity mistake: At the end, Lester lasso's the landing gear of the plane, and holds on till he smacks into the statues in front of the casino. While the plane is flying off, we see Lester hanging by his right ankle and his left leg is forward (in front of him) bent only slightly at the knee. A few shots later, when we look up from the ground, his left leg is bent at 90 degrees and is now completely behind his body instead of in front of it.
Continuity mistake: As Sam & E Johnson leave glory hole, and then break through the barriers, driving through the flame torch, the light is that of early morning, yet in the following shots it's night time.
