Corrected entry: When the police trap Snake after the car chase they say he's trapped in meaning there was only one way in. So how does Snake get his car stuck in the alleyway when he must have got through the alleyway to begin with?

The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: During the car chase scene, Snake drives into the parking lot and there is a large "Parking" sign yet when the police come through the sign is gone. (00:07:30)
Correction: The shot with Snake coming through is a wide shot where we can see the sign. When the police come through the shot is much tighter and the sign is above what we can see.
9th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When Lisa is in Skinner's office after sassing Miss Hoover, her hands change position between shots. (00:14:40)
Correction: Again true but she has time to change the position of her hands when we see her from behind. We can't see her hands during this time.
10th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: In Bart's imagination, when he is in the courtroom with his face censored, when the guy with the knife grabs Bart, the judge has disappeared. (00:13:05)
Correction: Not possible to tell, the shot is looking up from a very low position. The judge could easily still be there without us being able to see him.
10th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When the mean girls try to get Lisa out of the bad girl's washroom, the magazine that one of the girls was carrying disappears. The cigarette that the other girl was holding also vanishes. (00:11:40)
Correction: This is all true but the girl whose magazine disappears is out of shot for long enough to have dropped it or even put it down. The other girl's hand is out of sight long enough for her to have dropped it just as we saw the first girl do earlier.
10th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When Lisa enters the bad girl's washroom for the first time, the books she is carrying switches arms. (00:11:40)
10th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: Bart is seen repeatedly switching where he sits in the back of the car before and during the car chase. (00:05:50 - 00:08:10)
10th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When the cops pick up Bart at the Simpson house, it is daytime. Immediately after it is nighttime. (00:05:30)
Correction: It's a completely different shot which does not have to directly follow in time.
4th Sep 2004
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: On the series 4 DVD box set there is a message from Matt Groening. In the message he is talking about some of the episodes, and refers to "Ralph Wiggum's immortal 'Choo-Choo-Choose Me' valentine to Lisa." In actually, it was a valentine from Lisa to Ralph, and the card read "I Choo-Choo-Choose You."
Correction: The card does say that but Matt Groening is referring to Ralph's first words upon receiving the card which are "You choo choo choose me?"

Burns' Heir - S5-E18
Corrected entry: The nuclear power station has three huge chimney stacks belching smoke. Why? What are they burning?
3rd Jun 2004
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: At the beginning of the episode, where it has Troy Mclure on a TV programme, Troy Mclure has a microphone. Notice that as he walks down the orange stairs, there is a wire following him, which is attached to the microphone. When Troy reaches the bottom of the stairs the wire has now disappeared from the stairs. (00:01:50)
Correction: He's out of shot for long enough to have been given another microphone. He may need to move around and doesn't want an extremely long cable dragging behind him so there's a second mic connected closer to his current position or to the position he will next move to.

The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: When Bart watches "Gorilla The Conqueror" with Homer, the giant gorilla in the film throws a tree at various people. Some of the people are in mid-air before the impact.
Correction: Not really a mistake in the Simpsons, more a nod to the fairly obvious, and poor, special effects used in these kind of movies.

Radio Bart - S3-E13
Corrected entry: When Bart accidentally drops the radio down the well, we can see in the first shot that the rope is in a bundle and is very long. In the next shot the rope appears to be shorter. (00:09:35)

The Simpsons (1989)
Radio Bart - S3-E13
Corrected entry: When Bart makes Mrs. Krabappel 'fart,' the bulletin board on the wall keeps changing between shots. (00:08:40)
Correction: Sorry but no it doesn't, we see it from various different positions in the classroom so it appears to be different but the separate shots are consistent with the whole.
10th Mar 2002
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Corrected entry: David is in the flat after Alex has gone to work and switches the TV on. He flicks through the channels, where the BBC1 test card is showing. Surely it being a Saturday, "Saturday Superstore" or "Swap Shop" would have been on. How do we know it's Saturday? On the third channel is an advert for the "News Of The World".
Correction: When this film was made, the BBC didn't broadcast 24h a day. David is awake too early for childrens TV to have started. Remember that Alex is a nurse and may start fairly early.
Also, her shift finished at 12 midnight, so she wouldn't have started until at least 12 midday.
The two little girls walking a dog wouldn't be out very early.
4th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: At the very end when Homer runs out of Moes there is no street and only a grey wall. (00:21:20)
Correction: We can't see any detail to know what's outside. It simply looks as if it's dark so we can't see anything.
10th Sep 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: While Lisa gives her speech at school, Miss Hoover seems to have only one leg. (00:13:20)
Correction: Her other leg is obviously raised and the flat of her foot is leaning against the desk. We can't see it because of her long skirt.

Friends (1994)
The One With The Ultimate Fighting Champion - S3-E24
Corrected entry: Phoebe asks Rachel if she can set Ross up with her friend Bonnie, who shaves her head. In Season 1 Phoebe also mentions her friend that shaves her head but refers to her as Abbey.
13th Nov 2003
The Simpsons (1989)
Corrected entry: After Bart crashes at the social club, it has stopped raining. (00:05:25)
Correction: Not at all clear why the rain stopping is a mistake.

Correction: There was only one way in and out for a car as Snake finds out. The alley they both came in is obviously different from the one Snake tries to escape through. This is further confirmed by the fact that the police car is not parked at the end of the alley Snake tries to exit through.

Also, Springfield PD isn't exactly known to be top-notch. This could've been a mistake by the cops as well. Even so, character mistake.
