Continuity mistake: Tired of the old men's tirades, a group of young whippersnappers shouts at them. Look at the one with the bowler hat; suddenly a glass is in his hand at the first cut, and the bottle next to him faces the opposite way. (00:05:50)

Gun x Sword (2005)
Continuity mistake: Van fills to the brim the plate of fries with honey, which spills on the table. The table is honey-less afterwards, but let's make it slide because of the comical exaggeration; still the plate shows all the honey throughout the scene except when one of the old men pushes it away to put the big plate of tacos; part of the original plate is still in frame and the honey is gone.

Ghostbusters (1984)
Continuity mistake: When Slimer flies off after Ray shot towards him the first time, the cart rolls away; you can see that the champagne bucket was not knocked down by the messy explosion. When the cart crashes in the wall, the bucket enters the frame already lying horizontally. (00:33:10)

Ghostbusters (1984)
Continuity mistake: When Peter sets foot into Dana's house, in the establishing shot of the room you can see two pink pillows on the armchair. Between their first and second appearance the pinker one in front has slumped. (00:24:15)
31st Jan 2022
Ghostbusters (1984)
Continuity mistake: Egon is done testing Dana with the electrodes on her temples. He walks past her pronouncing a line; " I wouldn't rule out clarvoyance." There's a cut during the sentence, and in the first shot Dana is looking up at him, in the second she is looking at the floor. (00:23:20)

When a Stranger Calls (1979)
Continuity mistake: The babysitter answers one of the early calls saying "Robert, I don't think this is very funny." The pencil and papers have completely changed position on the table. (00:07:30)
29th Jan 2022
Ghostbusters (1984)
Continuity mistake: The librarian is carting away books that are (for the greater length of the top shelf at least) leaning away from her. Cut, and they are positioned differently, about one third towards, a part in the middle away, and again towards her. (00:00:50)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: When Peter crawling like a worm draws the attention of the scourge of Carpathia that is holding the baby, shouting "Not so fast, Vigo!", notice Vigo's hair moving from the back of the right shoulder to the front. The hair changes position going in front of both shoulders to various° in the rest of the conversation. (01:34:55)

Gun x Sword (2005)
Continuity mistake: In the moustached mayor's office, Van opens a drawer and finds "The wonderful YoRoI nation project." The report in close-up rests on a stack of papers that weren't there before the cut - or at least the report was in a different position and you couldn't see papers underneath it. (00:13:50)
28th Jan 2022
Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: When Egon sucks the Scoleris inside the trap, the three 'busters are spread across the courtroom, but in the close-up of the trap you see their legs being much closer - and you can see for instance by Peter's stance that there's no real continuity. (00:36:20)
27th Jan 2022
Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: After "Do, Re, Egon", the Ghostbusters are nervously waiting for the Scoleri to show up, as if they knew they would. Just before the camera cuts to a close-up on Bill Murray, he begins to lower his head to look at his rifle, but in the close-up he is facing forward. (00:34:40)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: The smaller Scoleri tosses the defense table at the judge's empty podium. In that sequence there are no burning fires (a tiny one quickly fades) and not even the glowing jar of slime. When the Ghostbusters arm up, the slime is smoking and glowing and fires burn at the judicial bench. (00:33:05)
27th Jan 2022
Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: When the Scoleri Brothers come (for whatever reason) out of the jar there are strong air currents all over the courtroom. The heroes are under the table, and you can see the winds knock down a few books above them. In the reaction shot on the crowd after Ray goes "Wooooow", you can see some of those books that just fell earlier still on the table. Look for instance at the two books by the red tome to the far left. (00:32:40)

Gun x Sword (2005)
Takishîdo wa kaze ni mau - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When the Mayor begs Van to be their yojimbo, notice the assistant and Wendy; both are leaning against the window peeking at the retreating army, but both change position significantly between one shot and the other. (00:07:50)
27th Jan 2022
Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: In the scene outside the hospital, when Gale and Sidney try to make the protagonist reconsider her plan to leave, Courteney Cox's hair changes position in front of either shoulder several times between shots.
27th Jan 2022
Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: The first time we see Sam, it's in a long shot as she is sitting outside the bowling alley in Modesto. Look at the shadows on the building, in particular the door Jack Quaid comes out of; they change between shots.
26th Jan 2022
Gun x Sword (2005)
Takishîdo wa kaze ni mau - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The mayor tries to bribe Van offering him a succulent steak. In its first close-up, the steak shares the plate with a side of carrots and broccoli. Van then cakes the steak up with increasingly ridiculous amounts of condiment until it's a blob of salad dressing with streaks of ketchup and mayo. He cuts and eats a portion of it. When he's by the window, the dressing is gone, the steak is covered just by the green sauce, and he sticks the fork inside the piece he already cut earlier. (00:05:10)
26th Jan 2022
Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: The boys upstairs hear Ray screaming to pull him back up from the hole in the ground. Venkman is leaning against it with his left hand, which turns into the right hand at the first cut. (00:25:30)
26th Jan 2022
Ghostbusters 2 (1989)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the scene with Ghostbusters dressed as construction workers lowering Ray in the dig, Egon's left arm (the one operating the device) changes position between shots. (00:23:35)
26th Jan 2022
Gun x Sword (2005)
Takishîdo wa kaze ni mau - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The bad guys at the beginning of the episode shoot Wendy and send her flying. Her gun falls to the ground with her and in the foreground we see that it falls with the grip facing away from her. In the rest of the scene it's facing towards her, and the position of the gun itself on the ground changes often. (00:01:20)
