Continuity mistake: The arc-shaped garden plant directed the protagonist to someone who can help him. A nasty human armed with shears walks by and starts his torture; he kneels by the plant, in a zone with no shadows, and in the next shot the whole section of ground is in the shade. (00:39:40)

How to Beat the High Co$t of Living (1980)
Continuity mistake: During the opening credits, the three protagonists walk into a literal meat market; the price tags on the steaks change position between the two wider angle and the closer one. (00:02:00)

Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred (2011)
Continuity mistake: In the 'match' when he tags with John Cena, Fred is picked up by the rival vampire in a fireman's carry position (kinda like for Cena's Attitude Adjustment), but his head is over the opponent's right shoulder in the first, wide, shot and towards the left shoulder in close-up.

WandaVision (2021)
Continuity mistake: When Dottie calls Glamor and Illusion back on stage at the end of their performance, at the words "On behalf" she is holding the trophy with the right hand under its pedestal, which turns into the left hand in close-up. (00:25:40)
17th Jan 2021
WandaVision (2021)
Continuity mistake: At Dottie's, when the ladies start saying in unison "For the children", Wanda is caught off guard with her hand on her mouth. But which hand? The right hand in the wide shot, the left one in close-up. (00:10:40)

WandaVision (2021)
Continuity mistake: Wanda just found the toy helicopter in the shrub. Agnes surprises her; from the front, her left hand has the pinky finger sticking out and the thumb curled, but in the reverse shot the fingers are bent differently. (00:07:45)

Victoria and Abdul (2017)
Factual error: The scene with Queen Victoria in Florence happens too early since it is supposed to happen in the spring of 1888 but Abdul Karim was not yet her official "Munshi", being appointed to that title in August of the same year.

Victoria and Abdul (2017)
Factual error: Performing for Queen Victoria is the famous opera composer Giacomo Puccini. This happens during her sojourn in Florence in 1888. Puccini was born in 1858, so he was barely thirty years of age, but the actor portraying him, Simon Callow, is in his late 60s (and it shows). Moreover, he is presenting his latest creation "Manon Lescaut"; in 1888 he hadn't even started working on it.

Dr. Dolittle 3 (2006)
Continuity mistake: Maya just made a fool out of herself with her first unfortunate riding efforts, but recovered nicely. She exchanges words with Brooklyn; her "don't hate the player, hate the game" reply comes in a shot when she is in a position where she would not be facing her, and then it cuts to a close-up of the horse as he speaks, and where his head is lit in an entirely different way compared to the rest of the scene. (00:26:55)

Dr. Dolittle 3 (2006)
Continuity mistake: Maya and Brook are arguing in the bus, and the donut guy interjects; "Let's play the quiet game." He puts his right arm on the opposite aisle, but it's in his lap at the cut. (00:16:45)

Dr. Dolittle 3 (2006)
Continuity mistake: After the car crash, Maya follows the darn dog to complain about his careless crossing. In an abrupt cut, she has her right arm straight down the side, then her hand is on her hip. (00:02:15)
17th Jan 2021
Dr. Dolittle 3 (2006)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, Maya swerves to avoid running a dog over. An extra in a pink shirt and jeans shorts is present at all times by the mailboxes she'll ram the car into, and that is good, but his position is inconsistent. In the overhead shot he's already past the newspaper box, in the next he's several meters behind, and then past that point again. (00:01:50)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Character mistake: In the map of South America, the nation of Chile is misspelled as "CHLIE." (00:18:05)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Other mistake: When Ishizaki is unwrapping his leg from the bandages, he's wearing the football boot he is NOT wearing before and afterwards. (00:15:10)
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Coach Mikami's sunglasses are pitch black during most scenes, but in his reaction shot to the news of Roberto Hongo's international retirement they are tan. (00:11:35)
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: When Roberto is looking at the team having a laugh with the still injured Ishizaki, there are 10 of them in the first shot with no keeper included and 10 including the keeper in the second. Both are wrong though, since Ryo has a substitute that is playing, so should be 11 players all along. Later in the episode when they run for the special training, it's 12 people, with Ishizaki still sidelined, but in the close-up of Roberto's foot you can see them run past, and it's 11 players. (00:07:05 - 00:10:10)

The King of Fighters '94
Continuity mistake: In the USA team ending, Heavy D's jacket goes from the right shoulder to the left shoulder during the cut on Brian saying "Okay, done."
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: Ryo Ishizaki is wearing yellow boots at first, then blue boots when he's throwing balls to the training partners. (00:02:15)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Continuity mistake: During Roberto's team talk, the keeper is wearing an ordinary jersey at first, then the proper red one. (00:01:50)
17th Jan 2021
Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)
Other mistake: Misaki's dad just arrived at the stadium, and seeing his son play, he strokes his beard with a satisfied look. Problem is, he's still standing and the hand that rubs his chin was holding a toolbox he did not have time to put down (or anywhere to place it on, for that matter). (00:10:40)
