Tintin in Tibet: Part 1 - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: When Tharkey re-enters the plane where he and Haddock made camp, Haddock asks "Any sign of him?" Tharkey replies and you'll see the sky in the background is grey due to the storm. Shot cuts to a wide angle where night suddenly comes from outside of the window. (00:16:55)

Continuity mistake: Just after Haddock finishes saying "That's not my idea of a vacation," he goes to read his newspaper. On the front page of this newspaper is a headline that reads "Ray Jones." About seven seconds after this happens, the shot returns to Haddock where we can see the headline is now twice as small as it was before. (00:01:55)

Audio problem: Tintin wakes after having his nightmare and causes mayhem across the room. Haddock later says, "You were dreaming about that crash on the news" somehow without his mouth syncing up with the speech during the second half of this line. (00:03:55)

Tintin in Tibet: Part 1 - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: When Haddock points out to Tintin he was dreaming about the crash on the news, the background shows a pitch black sky (around 11 o'clock sky). Yet a further two shots later, the background shows a partially lighter sky (still night, around 7 o'clock). (00:03:55)

Continuity mistake: When Haddock starts lowering Tharkey into the cave, a rope is wrapped around a walking stick. There are three loops around the stick to begin with. A couple of shots later in a close-up of the stick, there are now only two loops in the rope. (00:19:05)

Other mistake: When Tintin enters the cave, the footsteps follow behind him. An animation error occurs regarding one footstep, in which half of it vanishes from shot for a quick frame and then reappears as the shot starts to pan, revealing that the footsteps were not drawn by the animators in each individual frame.

Oblivion (2013)

Question: What is it about the moon being destroyed that caused loads of earthquakes and tsunamis?

Casual Person

Chosen answer: The moon's own gravity affects the Earth, most notably in the form of ocean tides. Over the eons a balance has been established between the two celestial bodies. When the moon was destroyed, that balance was thrown out of whack and the Earth basically adjusted itself. Sort of like if you hold a ball bearing to the inside of a bowl near the top with a magnet on the outside; remove the magnet and the ball bearing suddenly drops and careens around inside the bowl until it finally comes to a rest at the bottom. That rolling around would be analogous to the earthquakes and tsunamis that resulted from the moon's destruction in this film.

Continuity mistake: After the interrogation, Skye tells Agent Coulson about Agent Ward. Coulson says during this scene,"It's a magical place" and Skye says "Ward doesn't like your style. Kinda think I do." At The End of this line, Skye is looking at Coulson. In the next shot, she's suddenly looking 90 degrees in the opposite direction. (00:26:55)

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene where Mike and his kid have a conversation outside a toy store, an explosion comes from the top floor of an apartment building. Just before Mike runs off to go save some of the people from the building, he says "Stay with Bernie" to his kid and Bernie then does this. After he says this and runs off, the kid and Bernie are a good foot away from the toy store. The next shot when Mike shouts "Watch my boy!" to Bernie, the kid and Bernie are a great distance away from the toy store without any time to move. (00:01:20)
