Continuity mistake: When Adam sets down Nick's guitar after breaking it, the head of the guitar is facing towards the loudspeaker, but in the next shot, it is facing away from it. (00:06:41)

Honey I Blew Up the Kid (1992)
My entry talks about the direction the guitar is facing between shots. Your entry does not mention this; it talks about the distance the guitar is from the loudspeaker between shots. That's not the same thing.

Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves (1997)
Continuity mistake: When the two couples are riding in the toy car going down the track, the car alternates from (not) having a roof between shots.
27th Apr 2010
The Living Daylights (1987)
Continuity mistake: When Bond pushes Pushkin back on the bed in the hotel room, Pushkin has a basket with a bottle of champagne in his left hand. It disappears between shots, and there is no sound of it falling to the floor.

King Kong (1933)
Corrected entry: Who could have built and suspended the rope by which Ann and Jack escape?
18th Feb 2021
Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)
Revealing mistake: When Scott is fighting Ghost, as Pym is planning to dive, Ghost throws Scott through a wall and you can see the braking cable around his/the stuntman's waist and across the floor. (01:16:48)

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
Continuity mistake: While on the boat, Helena does her 7 spades card trick. When she gives Indy a turn, you can see the bottom card is a black 2. When she fans them out, it changes to black king of clubs. Then, in the next shot, it changes to 8 of clubs. (01:16:00 - 01:17:00)
Suggested correction: Not necessarily a mistake. She could be changing those cards by sleight of hand, while moving the 7 of spades into position for the final force. The mistake was not using the 3 of clubs for it.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
Continuity mistake: When the staff member at the college runs away from the bad guys to get help, and is quickly shot in the back by Voller's henchman, she falls forward on the floor, face down. Dead. But a short time later, when Indy discovers her body on the floor, he kneels down to attend to her (and looks at his hand to see her blood there), she is now lying face-up on her back.

Ten Commandments (1956)
Continuity mistake: At the end when Moses reaches out to the tablets, in the first shot he has nothing in his hand, second shot he has something black which at first looks like sunglasses, and in the third shot his hand is empty again.

Mission: Impossible (1996)
Corrected entry: When Ethan is going down to the security room on a rope you can see a man standing on the floor at the bottom. It's right after he starts to descend.
12th May 2007
The Wizard of Oz (1939)
Visible crew/equipment: As the talking trees throw their apples at Dorothy and the Scarecrow, look closely at the upper right hand side of the screen. An off camera crew member is shaking one of the trees back and forth as all of the others stand motionless. (00:40:20)
6th May 2020
The Beastmaster (1982)
Visible crew/equipment: When Dar is on top of a mountain, he swings his sword around, and you can see a semi truck drive by on the road below him.
5th Jan 2024
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
Other mistake: Dive boat interior, as the tablet is unboxed, there is a clear lens distortion as Indi looks round to his diver friend and the focus follows - giving a disturbing jolt to the image. (01:08:27)
Suggested correction: It just appears to be the result of the movie doing a slightly unconventional rack focus. I don't think that really qualifies as a mistake. If it does count, it opens far too big a can of worms in terms of various camera techniques being considered "mistakes."
17th Aug 2007
Ratatouille (2007)
Deliberate mistake: Main headlines in newspapers appear translated for each country for the kids to understand it, but the rest of the news appear in English, despite the movie taking place in Paris. Also, most signs -such as the poisons in the window shop- have labels written in English.
Suggested correction: By that logic, it's a mistake that the characters speak English. It's an American movie set in France, and like you said, it's a kids' movie. Everything is in English for simplicity's sake.
31st Jul 2006
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)
Visible crew/equipment: Right after the ambulance runs over Arnold's motorcycle a shot of him hanging on the crane hook is shown. You can see the safety cable attached to the left of his belt. (00:33:25)
18th Dec 2003
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)
Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where John, Catherine and the Terminator are in the mausoleum getting the guns out of the casket, you can see two "marks" taped on the floor in front of John and Catherine. (I think they were red and green). (00:49:55)
2nd Aug 2005
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
Visible crew/equipment: When the Terminator is catapulted into the factory by the tanker truck, wires are visible holding him up (Slow-mo or pause might help.). (01:52:50)
5th Jun 2008
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
Visible crew/equipment: When Arnie is airborne on his cycle in the canal scene, you can faintly see the wires holding up his bike - from just around his shoulders right before he lands to until it switches scenes. (00:37:15)
14th Jul 2023
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
Continuity mistake: When Indy arrives in Tangier at Hotel Le Atlantique, it is evening. A party is going on in the hotel while the auction is being held. A discussion starts, and a fight breaks out. They go outside, and all of a sudden, it is daytime.
18th Mar 2003
Frantic (1988)
Other mistake: As Harrison Ford goes to grab the chimney as he is falling off the rooftop, notice the way the chimney bounces around, like rubber.
1st Jul 2023
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
Continuity mistake: When the villains are following Indy through the caves, the old wooden bridge completely breaks and falls apart. However, when they make their escape across the same bridge, it's intact with only a couple of wooden slats broken.
Suggested correction: You can see a goon holding it up when they come back.
The picture you put online to prove it does not prove anything at all. It's a really lousy picture that doesn't serve as any sort of proof because it's too hazy and dark in the picture to see the wooden slats.
