Willard (2003)

Continuity mistake: When the rats are tearing the newspaper, the amount of damage to it is inconsistent. At one point they've torn all the way through the blue banner at the top of the page; later it is whole again. (00:24:50)

Small Soldiers (1998)

Continuity mistake: When Irwin is looking up the components of the toys a big red "Access Restricted" symbol appears when the details of the X1000 chip are displayed. The camera angle changes to show Irwin talking to Larry; in the background the same screen is showing on the computer but the "Access Restricted" symbol is gone. (00:42:30)

Continuity mistake: When Archer is using Alan's computer he finishes up with a picture of what he thinks is Gorgon. The cat then comes in. Alan wakes up and sees the cat licking Archer - in the background the computer is showing a picture of a power station's cooling tower, not Gorgon. (00:26:40)

Small Soldiers (1998)

Continuity mistake: In the first shots of the toy shop there is an Oktoberfest notice in the window next to the front door. When we next see the shop that evening it is gone. There is a sign in the street implying that Oktoberfest hasn't happened yet so it is unlikely Alan would have taken the sign down. (00:15:45 - 00:23:35)

Small Soldiers (1998)

Continuity mistake: When Alan and Joe are unloading the truck, Joe hands Alan the first box. As Joe is talking about his father trusting him, he turns and the camera angle changes to show him putting a box on top of another one. Since this is supposed to be the first box, it should be going on the ground. (00:12:20)

Jabberwocky (1977)

Factual error: In the opening shot of the film, The first verse of the poem is recited. There is a very minor mistake in the subtitles on the region 1 DVD. Instead of "...in the wabe: All mimsy..." they read "...in the wabe. All mimsy...". (00:00:10)
