Alien (1979)

Other mistake: When Dallas is in the air vent, his and the alien's location are both being tracked with the movement sensor held by Lambert. Whenever he crawls, his movements match up with the sensor. As he climbs down the ladder, his movement on the sensor goes downwards as it keeps in sync with Dallas himself and also shows that anything sensed on the sensor would be lower down on the sensor's monitor if someone or something was located on another level of the vent. The shot after Dallas says "Am I clear Lambert? I want to get the hell out of here" shows the monitor on the sensor and we can see the alien approaching Dallas on the monitor, with both Dallas and the alien on the same level on the air vent. Dallas then climbs down another level, and it is that the alien was in fact a level below Dallas. The problem with this is, if the alien was approaching Dallas from below, then the monitor should have showed the alien to be a few spaces below where it was on the monitor and not the same level as Dallas.

Alien (1979)

Continuity mistake: After the Alien bursts out of Kane's chest, Parker grabs a knife and goes to stab it, and Ash raises his arm at him, telling him not to. The alien then runs off and visible in the back of shot is Ash still pointing at Parker with his arm raised. Then in a sudden close-up of Ash, his arm is now lowered. Although, his entire arm isn't visible, just under his shoulder, the top of his arm is still visible, so his arm is definitely not in the same position as it was in the previous shot. (00:57:30)

The Simpsons Game (2007)

Plot hole: NeverQuest: A cut scene plays straight after Homer finally defeats The Dragon at the very end of the level. This cut scene shows Homer retrieving the key card for this level from The Dragon's nest. There was no way for Homer to know the key card was going to be in The Dragon's nest. Especially since the walls of the nest were significantly taller than Homer was, which would have completely blocked all view of the key card.

Revealing mistake: NeverQuest: Just after taking down The Dragon for the first time in the level in the village, a cut scene begins where Homer and Marge start to kiss. The animation on Homer's mouth is seriously messed up as he and Marge kiss. You can see some of his lip is in the corner of his stubble, which isn't normal.

At various points, she will hold her position behind a massive gate and Homer will have to use his Homer Ball power to attack The Dragon. If The Dragon begins to leave and you attack with Homer Ball and hit The Dragon's tail as it leaves, you will just fade through the tail and The Dragon won't lose any lives.

Despicable Me 2 (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Gru is attempting to unlock the floor key pad, he triggers an incorrect key and some fire is blown at him. Some smoke is left all over his face. Gru triggers another incorrect key and some darts are launched at him. The smoke is still there, but as he falls over, most of the smoke on his face has gone. The smoke on his right cheek is still there, but has still vanished from his face. (01:04:20)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: I watched the scene carefully. The smoke stains stay there the entire time. When he falls they are perhaps a bit fainter, but still there. When he walks into the elevator and turns toward the camera is very hard to say if all the stains are there or not due his wide smile, and that's only if you pause it.

Despicable Me 2 (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Gru follows Eduardo through the corridors, he stumbles to find him dancing along a floor key pad to unlock the lift. It is also shown that if a key is pushed incorrectly, the key turns red and a weapon is launched at the person on the key pad. When he begins to activate the key pad, the first key he steps on is the key second to the left on the first row and continues the rest of the pattern. Gru then attempts to do the exact same sequence. The first key he steps on is the key second to the left on the second row, despite the fact that Eduardo actually triggered the first sound effect with the key on the first row, second to the left. Despite this, the sound effect is still correctly triggered. (01:03:40)

Bug: Rebooted, Resuited: There is one point in the level where Captain America and Iron Man need to open a laser gate with three blue lasers along it around the second area, in which it asks you to save the level at the checkpoint for the first time in the level. If you continue to the right, you will be able to jump onto a blue and white striped climbing wall, climb up it, and at the bottom of the wall is an electric pit. If you attempt to climb the wall and you miss the wall, you fall into the pit. When you are in the electric pit, if you push the button to switch characters, it won't let you switch characters at all.
