Sammo

Continuity mistake: Bulma approaches Master Muten's home moving along the right side of the stairs in the faraway shot, but saunters along the left in the closer take. When it's time to enter, she opens the door, left hand close to her body and not popping out...but in the next shot, the hand holds the dragon radar and is placed on the external wall. (00:28:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Bulma is browsing in search for Roshi, while Goku eats a massive piece of meat. Right at the first cut, the extras that were walking around have completely disappeared, and throughout the scene, cars in the background never carry over from the previous time they were in frame, they just vanish between shots. (00:27:10 - 00:27:45)

Sammo

Plot hole: Bulma tells Goku about "the little machine I invented. This can detect and locate the signature wavelengths emitted by the Dragonballs." Literally a minute earlier she was not aware of the existence of other dragonballs (which she called by another name she never uses again). She does not live far, since the theft happened only a few hours before, so if she believed already that other "Prometheus spheres" existed, how would she have never detected Gohan's sphere so close nearby when she built that radar of hers? Unless her radar has a ridiculously short range, and then it wouldn't be useful at all during the rest of the movie either.

The Cornish Mystery - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When Japp does the comical fistwave at Poirot at the end, Poirot's carriage is passing by a line of people (woman with red coat, young woman with greenish one) that already passed by when the constable was giving the 'bad news' to Japp. (00:48:20)

Escape Plan (2013)

Character mistake: Schwarzenegger welcomes Portos saying "Your name. The fourth Musketeer. It's a good name." Port (h) os was one of the original three musketeers in the eponymous novel. To be "the fourth", his name should have been D'Artagnan. (00:31:55)

Baby's Day Out (1994)

Other mistake: The big lady and Veeko himself barely fit in the space between the building and the van, which are aligned. Yet Veeko has to just turn on the left to get a good visual of the lady who is now at the other side of the van itself. (00:32:45)

The Adventure of the Western Star - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: In his preparations for the arrival of his idol, Poirot sets a bunch of flowers with a card ("Mlle. Marie Marvelle"). When we see the bunch later as Poirot has to leave to go to her, the card is absent - but he has not touched the table. (00:03:55 - 00:05:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Cybil tells Emma "clean up your desk" and turns around. Emma freaks out about it; Cybil's hand is coming from a high position, while when she started the turn in the previous shot, she dragged her arm away from a waist-high divider. (00:15:35)

Criminal (2016)

Criminal mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Bill Pope just went off the stolen bike and is descending the stairs to the tube; people around him change completely between shots (he moves past a short haired woman dressed in black that is a few steps ahead of him, too). (00:03:50)

Sammo

The Adventure of the Cheap Flat - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Poirot is doing his round of phone calls at night clubs looking for the chanteuse; the pen before Hastings' arrival is pointed to the left side of the screen, when he sits down (and Poirot has not touched it) it points to the right. (00:24:40)

Baby's Day Out (1994)

Continuity mistake: Muten wakes up and he hits Goku, sending him against the wall. Some slips of paper begin falling from the desk, but the quick cut to Chow Yun-Fat's face stops that from happening, everything that was falling off is perfectly still. (00:29:30)

Sammo

Other mistake: When Goku meets Bulma for the first time, he asks her "Are you Piccolo?" Gohan said that "he's returned", and since Goku knows the whole story about Nameccians, he obviously also heard the story about Piccolo tons of times. There's no possible reason why he'd mistake a girl with a gun for the powerful male-looking sorcerer mentioned by his grandfather (it'd be also pretty surprising if his Grandpa talked to him about the alien race thing but neglected to mention that they are green-skinned and distinctly non-human looking). (00:23:45)

Sammo

Other mistake: Piccolo kills Gohan using a Vader-esque power to choke the opponent, and crushes the wooden part of his house on top of him (a very large part, some mistake it with the whole house) with a display of great telekinesis that takes him seemingly no effort. Throughout the movie, he never shows this kind of power and control over objects or people ever again.

Sammo

Plot hole: Throughout the movie, Piccolo is shown being able to detect the location of each dragonball. For no reason, he shows up at the house of the old Gohan, and despite the ball being a few minutes away from him (and approaching, since Goku is coming), he leaves and never pursues again.

Sammo

Other mistake: Fuller's car "explodes" collapsing for no reason, it has been hit with a couple lead pipe swings by a creepily old teenager, never by Goku. And if Goku did it with his Ki, then he'd already have mad power levels, contradicting the rest of the movie. Even throwaway jokes (I would imagine this was supposed to be one) should at least attempt to make sense, or "not not make sense." (00:17:05)
