Continuity mistake: When Mario and Luigi are giving their names to the officer, there's a woman randomly rubbing her foot against his arm and shoulder throughout the scene. However, the way her foot is on him changes multiple times throughout the scene.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Audio problem: When the officer asks "How many Marios are there between the two of you?" watch closely. In the wide shot for the second half of his line, his mouth is not moving at all.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Revealing mistake: When the old lady falls into the car, she blatantly turns into a dummy for a few shots. (She literally doesn't move at all and is unnaturally stiff.)

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Continuity mistake: When Big Bertha picks up the old lady, she goes from holding her in front of her to holding her above her head instantly between cuts.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Audio problem: When Koopa and Lena are introduced, there's a long wide shot of them descending some stairs while Koopa is talking about their master plan. ("I'll be able to merge our world with theirs and get rid of the mammals!", etc.) However, Koopa's mouth blatantly isn't moving at all for most of what he says. He just has an evil grin on his face.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Revealing mistake: When Mario and Luigi first arrive in "Dinohattan" and fall through the railing, you briefly get a clear look at Luigi's stunt-double, who appears to be a bulkier man who looks nothing like John Leguizamo. It goes by quick, so it can be hard to see, but once you notice, it's obvious.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Visible crew/equipment: When Luigi and Mario are chasing after Iggy, Spike and Daisy, during the shot where Mario is talking about "breaking every bone in their body," watch the shadow at the bottom right of the screen. At one point, you can see movement in the shadow from a crew member that got caught in the light.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Audio problem: When Luigi jumps through the portal, as Mario screams "Luigi!", his mouth is not moving at all.
14th Sep 2023
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Continuity mistake: When Mario and Luigi are in the cave, Mario goes from Luigi's side to behind, to being on the other side between cuts. There's no point in time where either they (or their feet) aren't on camera, so it makes no sense.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Continuity mistake: When Daisy and Luigi are looking at the fossils, after Luigi says "You're beautiful," the distance between him and Daisy increases instantly as it cuts to a wide shot.
14th Sep 2023
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Continuity mistake: When Daisy is showing Luigi the fossils, as the camera cuts from the wide shot to the closeup (when Daisy says "Have a look!"), suddenly their heads go from facing up to facing down between cuts, as do their flashlights.

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Revealing mistake: When Daisy takes Luigi to the dig site, there's a long wide shot as they talk and start to head down. As the camera zooms in, you can see the composited background (the bridge, city, etc.) "jiggle" slightly towards the end of the shot where the composite effect didn't quite align up.
14th Sep 2023
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Continuity mistake: When Iggy and Spike round the corner and snatch Mario's girlfriend, the look on Iggy's face changes as it cuts from a close-up to a wide shot.
14th Sep 2023
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Audio problem: When Iggy and Spike start to follow Mario's truck, they accidentally crash their car. As they drive away, you hear Spike say "Out of my way!" but if you look in the windshield, his mouth isn't moving.

Chucky (2021)
Trivia: One of the first things "Chucky" creator Don Mancini negotiated was to allow Chucky to use harsh profanity, including the word "fuck," as he didn't want to wimp down the franchise for cable. Mancini eventually worked out a deal with the networks, who allowed him up to 10 "fucks" per episode, despite the show airing in the primetime block. Mancini was later able to negotiate a few extra "fucks" in the season one finale.

Chucky (2021)
Continuity mistake: When Father Bryce explodes, and it's shown from multiple angles over and over, the way his head flies into the air is different in some of the shots. In some of the shots, it flies straight up several feet into the air, while in other shots, it only shoots about one foot into the air and also shoots forward slightly, revealing multiple different takes were edited together.

Child's Play 2 (1990)
Visible crew/equipment: When Chucky says "We're home!" and knocks Andy out at the toy factory, before trying to transfer his soul, watch closely. Right as the shot is about to end, you can see some of the animatronic cables, the puppeteers use to control the Chucky doll, behind him. Additionally, you can see a crew-member's hand start to reach up at the bottom left corner right before the shot cuts. (Presumably to help slow down actor Alex Vincent and the Chucky doll's fall for safety.)

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: After Ritchie gets stabbed through the cheeks, as Sam mounts him and begins stabbing him, his cheek wounds are missing in a few of the wide shots.

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: When Sam stops and sees her father reflected in the cop-car window at the end of the movie, in the shots focused on Sam, police lights are reflecting off her entire face, but in the shots focused on the reflection in the window, they're only reflecting off one side of her face.
29th Aug 2023
Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: After Sam stops stabbing Ritchie, the amount and pattern of the blood on her face and shirt changes between shots before she slits his throat. Then, when she stands up a few shots later, the amount and pattern of the blood changes again completely.
