Continuity mistake: When Tom and Kate are in bed discussing the upcoming Cup competition, Kate says "Give the kids some space," with Tom's head turned towards her. In the very next shot, he is looking down at his chart instead. (00:57:22)

Cheaper by the Dozen 2 (2005)
21st Jun 2024
Police Academy (1984)
Factual error: When Lt. Harris is being held hostage on the rooftop during the riot, his captor shoots a seemingly endless amount of rounds from a revolver, which should only have a maximum of six rounds. (01:26:06)
Suggested correction: He took both Copland and Blanks' revolvers, so he had 12 bullets. Even though we didn't see him switch guns, it doesn't mean he didn't at some point.

Lionheart (1990)
Audio problem: In the final fight, Joshua says multiple times to Lyon, "This dude's gonna kill your ass, man!" The last time he says it, his lips do not match the line at all. (01:32:01)
10th Jun 2024
Lionheart (1990)
Continuity mistake: When Lyon and Joshua are out on the streets at night looking to use a phone, they walk past a row of homeless people on the sidewalk. Joshua then says, "Why don't we get a cab outta here?" In the very next far shot, all the homeless people next to them have disappeared. (00:32:22)

The Naked Gun (1988)
Continuity mistake: After Frank commandeers the driving instructor's car for a chase, the woman learning to drive is faced with an oncoming truck. In one shot, the instructor has glass all over him, but in the next shot of him, the glass is all gone. (00:33:30)

Small Soldiers (1998)
Visible crew/equipment: When Christy and Alan take off on the scooter, we see a few instances of Kirsten Dunst and Gregory Smith's stunt doubles. (01:15:43)
25th Feb 2024
Three Amigos (1986)
Deliberate mistake: Save for one scene where Ned begins to reload before declaring he is an Amigo for real, no one throughout the movie reloads their revolver despite firing many more than six times.
18th Feb 2024
Driven (2001)
Character mistake: In the build-up to the final race, a TV commentator says, "Jimmy Bly starting in the 26th pole position because he didn't qualify today." This makes no sense, as Bly cannot be starting from both 26th place and from pole. (01:36:37)
18th Feb 2024
Howard the Duck (1986)
Continuity mistake: At the start of Bev's final sing-a-long before the credits, she steps to the front of the stage with her guitar in hand. In the very next shot, when she starts to sing, a microphone magically appears in front of her. (01:42:49)
18th Feb 2024
Howard the Duck (1986)
Continuity mistake: When Howard and Phil are being chased by cop cars in the ultralight, after Phil says "Trust your birdness - fly!", we see a front-facing shot that shows a cop car pulling up to the right of the ultralight. In the very next shot, no cop cars are even near them, just following. (01:19:55)

Kickboxer (1989)

29th Jan 2024
Kickboxer (1989)
Continuity mistake: When Kurt gets into a fight orchestrated by Xian Chow at the bar, one guy smashes a glass against a table and holds it in his hand. In the very next shot of him, before Kurt kicks him, the glass is gone. (00:57:03)

Speed (1994)
Question: When the bus enters the airport and drives over the spike strip, the tyres should have been shredded. Why did the bus not lose speed and therefore blow up?
Answer: Also, when the bus runs over the spikes, the camera is more close-up on it, and possibly some of the tires may have just missed hitting the spikes out of view of the camera. So, that would keep it speeding OK with just SOME of the tires shredded (but not all).
Answer: You wouldn't necessarily lose speed just because you've got a deflating tyre. It would become harder to control as the tyre deflated, but with an engine that can produce a lot of torque, there is no reason why it should slow down much, if at all. Also, as a heavy vehicle, it featured dual tyres on the rear which would've aided the drivability of the bus.
Answer: Spike strips are designed to deflate a tyre over a short time, not instantly, so as to avoid a blowout and possible accident. The tyres are going down over time as they should. That's why Jack has to tie the steering wheel in place, as it's harder to control the bus with the tyre shredding.

A Very Brady Sequel (1996)
Deliberate mistake: The Bradys are shown flying to Hawaii on a small DC-9, but the cabin interior is that of a much larger airliner (most likely a 747). (01:07:40 - 01:08:53)
16th Dec 2023
Groundhog Day (1993)
Audio problem: When Phil is building his final snowman, Rita says, "Why can't I look?" but her mouth does not move. (01:32:50)
18th Nov 2023
Wait Until Dark (1967)
Audio problem: When Mike and Carlino enter Susy's apartment for the first time, Carlino descends the stairs after Mike and says, "What are you calling for? She's not here," but his mouth does not move. Slightly harder to tell due to the lighting, but when Mike calls out "Lisa?" a few seconds before, his mouth also appears to not move. (00:07:20)
21st Oct 2023
Angels with Dirty Faces (1938)
Factual error: During the final shootout with the police, Rocky fires his revolver a great many times without ever reloading, even though he should only have a maximum of six rounds.
8th Oct 2023
Toy Story (1995)
Continuity mistake: In the opening scene in Andy's room, Woody's expression is semi-smiling with his mouth closed. Then, when 'You've Got A Friend In Me' plays and Andy takes him out of the room, Woody's expression changes to a blank stare with his mouth semi-open. When Andy returns to his room and places Woody on the bed, his expression is back to the first one with mouth closed. It was not established yet that Woody was 'alive', so his expression shouldn't have been changing at this point.

Die Another Day (2002)
Other mistake: Right after Bond and Jinx have descended through the clouds in their Switchblades, we cut to an airbase in North Korea. The caption (English Blu-ray) misspells Pyongyang as "Pyongang." (01:47:48)
23rd May 2022
Die Another Day (2002)
Deliberate mistake: The cabin of a four-engined cargo aircraft such as the Antonov An-124 would not be whisper-quiet as it is portrayed in all scenes. Most of the plane's occupants would need to be talking in raised voices or even shouting to be heard.
