Continuity mistake: Both when Gale speaks into the microphone saying "Tell us everything that's happened", and when she wags her finger at her motioning her not to punch her, her hand is at heights inconsistent between shots. (00:25:15)

Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: Sidney and Dewey begin their chat. In the wide shot, you can see that a girl is passing by the gazebo, behind it. She does it again in the next closer angle on the two talking, starting from way back. (00:22:50)
12th Feb 2022
Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Gale tells Debbie off giving her a nasty 'quote', the sun shines on Laurie Metcalf's sleeve in the angle where she says "Great!" and does not in the ones before and after. She is left standing in dismay, and you can see her in background with the sun casting another entirely different shadow even if she didn't move. (00:20:05)
12th Feb 2022
Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: Debbie Salt introduces herself to Gale Weathers and asks her a question that Gale does not like, so much that she puts her hand on Joel's camera and points it away, downwards. At the cut though Joel's camera is back up. (00:20:00)
12th Feb 2022
Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Mickey mentions Godfather Part II, there are reaction shots on the other students who have to agree on that statement, but their positions are inconsistent between shots (for instance the girl with the blue shirt has both hands joined at first, then at distance, the girls on the background to her right are leaning towards each other at first, then not, etc). (00:17:00)
10th Feb 2022
Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: In her opening shot, CICI says that you can't blame violence on entertainment. Behind her, out of focus, there's a student with a beige shirt. You can see his left hand, but in the next shot he has his right arm crossed on top of it. The rest of the scene goes on with that extra's motions not matching at the cuts (he's touching his chin next time, then he isn't). (00:15:20)
10th Feb 2022
Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Sidney grabs the caller ID device, the position of her fingers on it change between shots. (00:12:30)

9th Feb 2022
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)
Continuity mistake: When the kid slowly hobbles towards Rhino somehow outsprinting all the policemen, seen from behind he is walking in the shade for a large tract, but the street is sunlit in the other views. In general throughout the scene the police cars are now in the shade, now in the sun. (02:10:30)

Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1

9th Feb 2022
Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Reviewing Saki's footage of the evening of the murder, the part that shows Natsume is taken from an angle much closer than what it should be; Saki was sitting at the other end of the couch, not directly to her left. (00:17:00)
9th Feb 2022
Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Kindaichi and Miyuki are having breakfast since he already cracked the code but does not want to reveal the solution yet. A few seconds later there's a shot of the table from above the shoulder; not only the stuff on Kindaichi's tray changed and the yogurt moved to the right, but Miyuki was sitting across him and now she's on his right. (00:09:45)
9th Feb 2022
Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: The close-up of the hot beverage cup doesn't match Itsuki's nor Miyuki's, since the complementary glass of water is on the wrong side. (00:03:40)
9th Feb 2022
Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: When Miyuki waves at Kindaichi, her hair is in front of the left shoulder, behind the shoulder in the rest of the scene. (00:02:50)
9th Feb 2022
Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Young Kidaichi's Murder: File 1 - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Across the 4 parts of the episode, both Kindaichi's yellow shirt and Miyuki's orange top are tie-fronts; the way they are drawn though keeps changing, and multiple times (would be redundant to enumerate them) they leave a large opening below the tie in one shot, and are completely closed in the next.

Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Maureen goes back to her seat and starts putting on her jacket, the dude at her side begins waving his arm super-enthusiastically making happy coos. She finishes putting her jacket on and the guy, who is still making those sounds in dub, is sitting composed. (00:07:05)
9th Feb 2022
Scream 2 (1997)
Continuity mistake: When Maureen and Phil arrive in the theater, immediately at the beginning before the camera even gets fully in focus you can see by the door a blonde girl putting on the Ghostface hood, with her partner helping her. The camera cuts away for a second, and in the next wide shot you see her repeating the gesture. (00:01:40)
9th Feb 2022
Scream (1996)
Continuity mistake: Gale falls back on the unconscious Dewey after Billy kicks her. Her jacket is draped across the chest touching the white button of her vest. When Billy gets on his knees by her though, the jacket is fully open. (01:37:30)

Scream (1996)
