Super Robot Wars V
Character mistake: During Scenario 12 "The Dispeller of Chaos", Sumeragi makes her first appearance in the game botching her very first line as she says "I am IMPRESESED you've actually MAKE yourself a decoy."

Super Robot Wars V
Character mistake: A few times during the game (for instance in Haruki's biography) the expression "Coup d'état " is not visualized correctly, with the accented letter replaced by a dot.

Audio problem: When Baldacci shoots the van that is coming at him full force, the sound bits inserted are of bullets hitting metal. Since he is aiming at the windshield, either his gun does not shoot straight or someone has been very lazy with the sound editing; even if he hit bulletproof glass, the sound it would make would not be like that at all. And a few seconds later his colleague shoots at the van from the side and there is no bullet impact sound at all; to Miss a static target of THAT size from a few feet of distance she'd have to blind as well. (00:43:05)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Revealing mistake: Ispettore Baldacci gets hit by the evil van, and you can see as he flies back from the impact that his face is clean, but in close-up of course all of a sudden his face is a crimson mask. (00:43:05)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Revealing mistake: When inspector Gerry Baldacci gets in the way of the white van (as if there were a single white van in all of Italy), you can see on the asphalt the single distinct tire marks of the perfect size and path from previous takes. (00:43:00)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Stupidity: The police inspector leaves her calling card, not written in Braille, to the blind protagonist, asking her to call her in the next hours if she finds something out. She knows she lives alone. The scene is played unironically.
Suggested correction: There are devices that blind people use to read print to them, so they don't have to rely on everything being in Braille.
I am sure, but they show the 'training' she receives from Asia Argento in the couple of previous days, the only device being a phone that accepts verbal commands, and at no point she is shown reading anything or being introduced to the possibility of doing so, they spend time on that. The calling card is then used for a plot twist later, but it makes no sense that the thoughtful cop would give to a blind person without even asking if she can use it or giving the slight non-verbal hint that it was a blunder or problem.

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: The police inspector threatens Diana implying that for a blind woman like she is, life in prison would be a nightmare. He does that casually leaning against the wall with his hand held up high above his head. In the reverse shot, his hand is chest-high. (00:38:15)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: The police shows up at Diana's door looking for the kid. As Diana opens the door, look at her left hand getting on the top of her cane. And yet, in the reverse shot the right hand is there, the left arm is down her side. (00:37:40)

Continuity mistake: Diana's fingers are in a different position on the phone between close-up and wider angle when she realises that Chin crept back in the kitchen as she was trying to speak with the headmistress. (00:32:30)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: When the kid is eating cereals in Diana's kitchen, the glass is touching the tablecloth in the first close-up, and it is not in the wider camera angle. (00:31:35)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: Diana gives her business card to the nun, who puts it under a register on a table. That spot is under direct sunlight in the wider angle, in the shade in the close-ups. (00:29:35)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: Rita and Diana are sitting on a park bench. Diana is alarmed by the presence of a white van. She uses her white cane to stand; her hand is on very top of the cane in one shot, and lower in others. (00:25:45)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Revealing mistake: After the accident, some bystanders rush to the car hit by Diana's. A woman leans against the car window spotting a child inside; you can see on the window very conspicuous handprints in that spot from previous takes. (00:17:10)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: Towards the beginning of the movie, Diana is chased by the killer in a white van. They are inside an underpass, but there's a rear mirror view that shows a bus stop and trees. (00:16:05)

Continuity mistake: Diana's handbag is in a different position under the couch when she is fighting her violent client. (00:14:25)

Dark Glasses (2022)
Continuity mistake: Diana is meeting a client who is really into fisting, and does not take nicely her refusal to be on the receiving end of his knuckles. As he shoves her to the floor, her hands are plainly on sight, and they hold nothing, but conveniently when she is on the floor in the next shot she is holding the mace spray can. (00:14:15)

Stupidity: People can behave irrationally at the horrible sight of a murder, however the first couple that happens on the first murder scene behaves in a completely silly way; the guy pulls over and instantly rushes out as if he already knew what happened roadside, and his partner screams terrified, but jets out of the car and towards the bleeding victim anyway. In fact, she opened the door even a second BEFORE he did. (00:07:30)

Super Robot Wars V
Other mistake: One of Professor Wolfgang's lines when he is defeated by MITO's unit is "Why! Why must I ALWAYS lose to Mightgaine." The problem is, they left it in the pool of lines he can say also in the very first mission Maito appears in, when by the other lines of dialogue through the mission it's implied that they never met before.

Mission: Impossible (1988)
The System - S1-E2
Stupidity: The plot hinges on the fact that even Frank Marley's most trusted man would doubt him because of his actions, but he and Marley counted the money together; he should know that Marley was right and the amount declared was not lower than the actual money deposited. Instead, he is fooled like everyone else by the extra 25K$ planted by the IMF team. Their plan can't work unless he is oblivious and/or forgetful.
