Scream VI

Continuity mistake: When Sam and Tara barrel into the corner store, you can see a bus on the street behind them. However, no bus was visible in the previous shot anywhere on the street as they ran up to the store. True, you don't see the entire street, but you absolutely should have been able to see the bus somewhere in the previous shot.

Continuity mistake: When Sam and Tara are at the police station, pay attention to the objects on the table. After officer Bailey enters the rooms, several of the objects on the table suddenly change positions from the first shot. For example, Tara's phone and coffee cup swap places. The pen has moved a few inches up on the notebook. A few of the photos shift around, etc.

Other mistake: When Sam and Tara first meet Gale outside, after Gale gets punched, pay attention to the multiple news crews behind her as they start arguing about Gale's book. Randomly, they go from paying attention and recording to suddenly all dispersing and packing up after the shot cuts to Sam and then back to Gale. This makes absolutely no sense. They're all involved in a very famous case; there's no reason every reporter there would suddenly start packing up in the five seconds they were offscreen.

Trivia: When the kids are walking down the stairs in the subway station, you can see one guy walking upstairs dressed as the character Mojo Jojo from "The Powerpuff Girls." Mojo Jojo was voiced by Roger L. Jackson, the same voice actor for Ghostface.

Trivia: The climax to this film is largely an adaptation of the ending to the notorious unused leaked script draft for Scream 2, with appropriate modifications to suit this film's plot.

Trivia: The bodega in the film is called "Abe's Snake Bodega." This is a deep cut reference to original "Scream" director Wes Craven. In the early-to-mid 1970's, Craven worked as a crew member on several pornographic films to make ends meet, and he used the name "Abe Snake" as a pseudonym.

More quotes from Scream VI

Question: The events of Scream VI take place around Halloween, but it doesn't specify what year. A news reporter said that the Woodsboro killings took place in 2022 as if they happened a year ago, and Scream VI was released in March of 2023. So, do the events of Scream VI take place on Halloween of 2022 or 7 months in the future after the film's release date?

Answer: I think this is more "trivia" than mistake. There's no error in a film taking place a bit further ahead in time than in its release date.

TonyPH

Answer: Using some conjecture, if the film states the last killings took place in 2022 and treats it like "last year," you can assume it takes place around Halloween 2023. Films are allowed to take place in the future. They don't have to be set around their release date. So how is this a mistake?
