DrLoomis1978

Other mistake: When Morgan is leaving his house at the beginning, he remembers to put the garlic back on the door. He drops his bag of stakes next to one of the bodies he plans to put in the back of his car. After putting the garlic on the door, he never picks the bag up. In fact, the bag somehow disappears in the process. It's not in the car, as you can see it's empty as he puts in the bodies.

Other mistake: After Campion slams through the gate trying to escape the base, the baby's doll goes out the window. The scene then cuts back to the base to roll the intro credits. The doll is now lying on the ground next to his booth, inside the base.

I Like to Be Hugged - S1-E3

Factual error: Lexy finds Chucky's sneakers by the drapes, and he jumps on her to strangle her, making her drop her joint. That's exactly where the fire starts and grows large, which would have melted his sneakers. Yet in the next episode, he's burned, but his sneakers are as good as new.

DrLoomis1978

Factual error: Rocky buys and drives a Trans Am. Later, we find out that he can't read after his commercial goes horribly wrong. He couldn't have a driver's license because he would need to pass the written test first. You can't take the test if you can't read the questions or the driver's manual for that matter.

DrLoomis1978

Factual error: At the very beginning, while Frederick is telling us about the party, he says, "There will be food and drink and ghosts etc..." Throughout the movie, there isn't a single morsel of food ever seen or offered.

DrLoomis1978

Other mistake: Part 3 - The Betrayal: Fran tells Stu that she's pregnant on July 19th, and the way she tells him implies Stu is the father, and she's due in January. It's impossible. They didn't even meet until early July. Counting backwards from January, nine months lands in April. Way before the super flu even escaped. Way before the movie is set. (00:05:45 - 00:06:08)

The Sleepwalker - S1-E6

Factual error: When Ralph goes out the window onto the fire escape to save Ed the first time in the episode, Alice is looking out the window (to her right) telling Trixie all the step by step movements of both men, ending with, "and he's taking him right into your window." The Norton's live directly upstairs from the Kramdens, but Alice never changes the direction she's looking at the whole time. She should be looking straight up as Ralph leads Ed into their window. There is no other window to the right. (00:02:30 - 00:03:04)

DrLoomis1978

Other mistake: Once Earl stops the CAT at Burt and Heather's house, Val is standing on its roof directly above Earl. Val is looking and talking straight at them. The graboids shake the CAT, Earl drives it forward quite a bit (take notice just how far), but he looks up to tell Burt to hurry but he and Val are still facing in the same direction. They should be facing backward due to the distance they had to move up. Also, you'll notice that Burt is right in line with the trailer as he throws most of his gear. (01:14:30 - 01:15:30)

DrLoomis1978

Other mistake: Ben drags the body of the ghoul he killed in the house out the kitchen door. As he drags it out you can see he leaves it on the porch and lights it on fire, which would certainly set the wooden porch on fire and probably the rest of the house. But, once the flames are huge, you will see that the body has moved down onto the grass. But Ben never pushes it down off the porch. (00:19:45)

DrLoomis1978

Other mistake: When Ben smashes the face of the ghoul trying to walk through the kitchen door, he comes back in and locks the door. But, when he drags the body of the ghoul he killed in the house out that same door and lighting it on fire, he runs back in, slams a small table against it but never re locks it. So until he boards it up, that door is left unlocked. That little table wouldn't stop anyone. (00:18:45 - 00:20:00)

Dial J for Janitor - S1-E38

Question: When Ralph promises he'll fix Norton's pipes tomorrow morning, Norton says, "This is the last night I take a bath in Fred's Gasoline Station." Why wouldn't he have been taking his baths in his best friend Ralph's tub? He had already used their water to "Stretch the Soup." Why not to bathe?

DrLoomis1978

Show generally

Stupidity: The Kramden's door opens out towards the hallway. Yet anytime they need to block the door for protection, they put furniture up against it. That would serve no purpose, even with that cheap slide lock they have. The landlord or criminals could just open the door and push the furniture out of their way.

DrLoomis1978

Mind Your Own Business - S1-E35

Other mistake: Ralph gives Ed the advice to try to "squeeze" his boss for a promotion, but gets fired instead. When Ed comes home, he first stops in to see Ralph but he's not home, just Alice. All he tells Alice is that he had words with his boss and got fired. No details. Ed leaves and Ralph comes home. Alice tells him Ed was fired and described in detail the whole story of him threatening his boss for the promotion. Ed never told her exactly why he was fired.

DrLoomis1978

TV or Not TV - S1-E1

Other mistake: At the beginning when Ed tells Ralph he can't afford to buy a new TV right now, he says it couldn't come at a worse time because Captain Video is blasting off to Pluto tomorrow. Ralph gets the idea to buy a set together. When Ed comes down and turns on Captain Video for the launch to Pluto, Ralph yells at him saying they've had this set for three nights and all they watch are Ed's shows. Captain Video should have blasted off for Pluto night one, not night three.

Plot hole: After the car burns, and they arrive at the motel, Neal only has $17.00 on him and nothing but melted credit cards, forcing him to give up his watch to help pay for the room. Del only has $2.00 but his watch doesn't quite flip the bill. At this point, between Neal and Del, they only have $2.00. However, when Neal invites Del into the room, so he doesn't freeze to death, they are eating Doritos and drinking shooters. Even in 1987 Doritos and a bunch of shooters must have cost more than $2.00. This is assuming Del didn't already have them in his trunk. But even if he did, at the end, Neal gets on his train, makes a return trip to find Del just where he thought he'd be, and then they'd both have to get back onto that train. After all, they both showed up at Neal's home. Once again, It would take money to get on that train. Four train fares with only $2.00. Neal's first trip, return trip, and Neal with Del for the last trip = four fares.

DrLoomis1978

Other mistake: In 2000 a Limited Edition of Halloween was released with 12 extra minutes of footage, filmed during the making of Halloween II in 1981. In order to air Halloween on TV they needed to remove and add certain scenes. In the original 1978 version, Dr. Loomis tells Sheriff Bracket, "I watched him for fifteen years, sitting in a room, staring at a wall, not seeing the wall, looking past the wall, looking at this night, inhumanly patient." In the Extended version, you'll see Dr. Loomis visit Michael in his room, and he's staring out of a window. Not a wall. (00:11:31 - 00:12:38)

DrLoomis1978

Continuity mistake: Take notice of the desk lamp as Charlie and Al are talking in Charlie's new office. As the camera switches back and forth between their face to face conversation, the green glass cover of the light keeps changing position too. This happens even after Al leaves. This was probably done to keep the light out of the camera during filming. (00:13:50)

DrLoomis1978

Factual error: When Val is talking to Burt on the CB radio and desperately trying to tell him to get out of his basement, Burt is using a handheld CB. After Val's very last transmission, Burt is now holding a rifle, not the CB. When the Graboid crashes through Burt's basement wall, we hear him say over Val's CB, "Jesus Chr..." his transmission was cut off. First of all, Burt wasn't holding the CB so he wasn't transmitting at the time. Second, there are portable CBs that you can lock the PTT button for extended transmissions (I owned one), but that wasn't the case here. Finally, even if by some chance Burt accidentally did lock the PTT button before putting it down, it wouldn't have cut off. The Graboid broke through away from where Burt was standing and talking and couldn't affect the CB. It was done for dramatic effect of the scene. (00:58:30)

Trump Guy - S17-E11

Factual error: While Trump is showing Peter around the White House, Trump stops and says, "Sorry, can you hang on a sec, gotta close this window, Melania's out there blowing bubbles for Eric." It's a fact that windows are not allowed to be opened in the White House for security sake. Michelle Obama was unaware at first and opened one and the secret service ordered her to shut that window immediately.

DrLoomis1978

V is for Mystery - S16-E13

Other mistake: When Stewie and Brian are riding on the train, Stewie tells Brian, "It's nice that the locals act as their own train crossings." They are seated on the left side of the train and looking out their window at this time. As the train passes, we can see the only person standing there is on the right side of the train. Neither Stewie or Brian could have seen him from the direction they were looking. (00:14:10)
