Other mistake: Tony Danza inserts the 8-track tape into the player but doesn't push it in far enough to click in and work. He also inserts it with his right hand but then his left after a cut.
The Hollywood Knights (1980)
Directed by: Floyd Mutrux
Starring: Michelle Pfeiffer, Mike Binder, Tony Danza, Julius Averitt, Phil Berle, Steve Ballard
Genres: Comedy
Factual error: When the tape is inserted into the player, "California Dreamin'" comes out of the speakers...not in October 1965. That single wasn't even recorded until later that year, with the album released the following year. Only albums and compilations were recorded on 8-tracks, and neither would have been on that tape.
Factual error: When officer Bimbeau is locked in the restroom, officer Clark shoots the lock eight times -- with a six-shot Smith & Wesson revolver.
Bimbeau: Lemme tell you buttholes somethin'! This shit's wwaaayyyyy outta line! And you squirrels better have some nuts in your mouth... or you're goin' downtown.
Newbomb Turk: Did you ever hear the joke about the man with five penises? His pants fit like a glove.
Suzie Q: How about a kiss?
Duke: Sure, those never cost anything.
Suzie Q: Yes they did. I got used to them.
