Continuity mistake: When Hiccup has blasted Drago off his Alpha, he looks at the tail rising and sighs "Not again." If you look closely, his sword Inferno is both in his left hand and on his hip.

Visible crew/equipment: After Drift transforms into a helicopter, Optimus Prime continues driving through the desert. In the first shot after, a camera truck can be seen reflected in the chrome bumper. (00:53:15)

House of Cards (2013)

Chapter 5 - S1-E5

Frank Underwood: Patricia Whittaker, DNC chair; a rare example of someone whose head is in the game rather than up their backside. Competence is such an exotic bird in these woods that I appreciate it whenever I see it.

Continuity mistake: After the bus flips, the truck that hit it stops right in front of a Corvette. But when the Winter Soldier is shooting at Romanoff, she takes cover behind a truck. In the wide shot, there is a Monaro, and SUV and a mini-van, but the Corvette is nowhere to be seen. (01:14:50 - 01:15:50)

Factual error: When Rogers is launched through the front window of the bus after the Winter Soldier shoots him with a grenade, the bus is hit by a truck and flips. But if you look closely, the damage is minimal. On the truck it would qualify as a fender bender, and the dent in the bus looks like it was made with one decent swing from a sledgehammer. No way was that collision powerful enough to flip a fourteen ton bus on its side. (01:14:50)

Chapter 3 - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Frank and Gene Clancy are at Oren Chase's house, Oren ends the conversation by taking a sip of his ice tea. When he first grabs the glass, he grabs it by the top. In the next shot, he's holding it by the middle. And in the following shot, he's holding it at the top again.

Need for Speed (2014)

Continuity mistake: When Marshall goes between the Saleen and the McLaren, the front of the Koeniggsegg is completely undamaged, despite it being damaged both before and later on in the race, in the same way it was damaged when Dino knocked Pete off the bridge.

Need for Speed (2014)

Character mistake: Dino puts up his "Elemento" for whoever takes down Marshall. Monarch then says there are only three of those cars (a Lamborghini Sesto Elemento) ever made. This is not true. Lamborghini didn't make three, they made twenty.

House of Cards (2013)

Chapter 1 - S1-E1

Frank Underwood: As for me, I'm just the lowly house majority whip, I keep things moving in a Congress choked by pettiness and lassitude. My job is to clear the pipes and keep the sludge moving. But I won't have to be a plumber much longer. I've done my time, I've backed the right man. Give and take. Welcome to Washington.

Chapter 1 - S1-E1

Francis Underwood: Linda Vasquez, Walker's chief of staff. I got her hired. She's a woman, check, a Latina, check, but more importantly, she's as tough as a two dollar steak. Check check check. When it comes to the White House, you don't just need the keys in your back pocket, you need the gatekeeper.

House of Cards (2013)

Chapter 1 - S1-E1

Francis Underwood: President-elect, Garrett Walker. Do I like him? No. Do I believe in him? That's beside the point. Any politician that gets 70 million votes has tapped into something larger then himself, larger then even me, as much as I hate to admit it. Look at that winning smile, those trusting eyes. I latched onto him early on, made myself vital. After 22 years in congress, I can smell which way the wind is blowing.

Under the Skin (2013)

Quartermain: Here she is.
Johnny English: Ahh, the Rolls Royce Phantom. Truly the Rolls Royce of automobiles.
Quatermain: Armor plating, all the bells and whistles. Say "bonnet."
Johnny English: Bonnet.
Car: Command accepted. [Bonnet opens.]
Quartermain: Voice activation recognizes only you. Rolls has fitted one of their experimental engines. 9 litre V16. Goes like the wind, only quieter.

Friso94

Trivia: Rowan Atkinson explained on Top Gear that the 9 litre V16 in the Rolls Royce was developed by BMW (who own Rolls Royce) but never put into production. The prototypes that had been made were still in a warehouse somewhere, and put into the car for this movie.

Gravity (2013)

Question: When Ryan is descending back into the atmosphere in the Shenzhou, two pieces pop off the landing module after the big tracking shot. One appears to be part of the heat shield, and the other looks like an O-ring from the window. 1) If it really was a part of the heat shield, wouldn't she along with the Shenzhou have burnt up in the atmosphere and 2) If that was a part of the window, shouldn't it pop out due to the pressure differential? Or, if I'm wrong about those two parts, what are they?

Friso94

Chosen answer: The heat shield separates before landing. If it didn't the solid fuel engines behind the shield that are designed to give a soft landing wouldn't work. It doesn't separate until the capsule has slowed sufficiently to mean it is no longer needed. I don't know what the other piece that separates is but it is nothing to do with the windows. It comes from under the capsule so was behind the heat shield.

Pain & Gain (2013)

Factual error: When the guys are trying to dump the body of the porn guy, in the background of a shot when they are driving the van, you can see a 2001 BMW 7 and a 2013 Ford Mustang. Odd, seeing how the movie is set in 94/95. (01:40:45)

The Library - S2-E10

Trivia: Wan Shi Tong is of one the few things in this show that is not a reference to Asian cultures, but to Ancient Greece instead. In their mythology owls were the symbol of wisdom and their goddess of wisdom, Athena, was often depicted with an owl.

The Awakening - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Azula is asking Zuko whether or not he thinks the avatar may have survived, Zuko goes into a flashback. When he snaps back to real time, Azula has her hands behind her back. When the shot cuts, her hands are instantly by her side.
