Time Trax (1993)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: "Lethal Weapons": Darien is holding a disintegrator rifle when he leaps over the electronic fence. It flies from his hands when he lands, skidding across the porch, but disappears from the background when he gets up. It reappears just in time for him to snatch it up and shoot Cole with it.

Winds of War (1983)

Show generally

Factual error: Part 1: During the Siena Italian festival in what is supposed to be 1939, you can see in several shots that the crowd is wearing 1980s clothing (including tank tops, shorts and modern athletic shoes).

Factual error: Throughout the movie, characters strike matches to light lamps. While "strike anywhere" matches had been invented by this time and were quite the rage in Europe (despite an alarming tendency to explode due to the volatile chemicals used), they were an unknown commodity on the American frontier until well after the turn of the century.

Quantum Leap (1989)

Running Scared - S4-E25

Continuity mistake: The hitman fires at Diamond and the bullet strikes a post beside his parked car. In the next shot, as Diamond races into the alley after the gunman, the car is in the background, but the post has disappeared.

The Night of the Bottomless Pit - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When they attack him, Artemus' cellmates are smacked with a wooden chair, which lands broken but upright on the floor. In the very next shot, though, as Artie throws the exploding cigar, the chair is suddenly lying on its side. (00:25:30)

Continuity mistake: The cloth gag Moody ties around HJ's head noticeably changes positions between takes. (01:05:00)

The Night of the Poisonous Posey - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: The bad guys throw an unconscious West down a chute into the ice house. He goes in with his arms at his sides, then slides with his arms above his head, and finally lands with both hands folded over his stomach - all while remaining unconscious. (00:30:30)

Jean G

Continuity mistake: When John startles Clem, she drops all three of her packages to the floor. In the next shot, one is back on the table even before she bends to retrieve them. She then puts the flat parcel on top of the two rectangular ones - but one shot later, it has moved itself off the stack and onto the table. (00:31:30)

Factual error: Moody's hotel room wall lamp has an electric bulb in it. So do all the Chinese lanterns in the following barn dance scene. (00:44:15)
