Continuity mistake: Rick pushes Sorenson in the car pit; Sorenson in the first shot falls leaves the shotgun on the ground above, but he has it in the following part. To fall that way, he also fell with the left side of the body first, while the reverse shot shows the opposite. (00:20:05)

Bird on a Wire (1990)
Other mistake: The official FBI database lists Diggs by his full name, "Diggins, Alan", followed by the Diggs alias, but Sorenson for the Feds is simply "Sorenson, E.", no first name given. He can't have been convincted and served time without even a full name. (00:14:30)

Bird on a Wire (1990)
Continuity mistake: At the gas station, Marianne tells 'Billy Ray'; "You laugh like him." At the very beginning of the sentence you can spot walking left to right a guy in leather jacket, curly hair, with a blue umbrella. Thirty seconds of dialogue pass, the card checkout at the pump is complete, and in the wider shot the same guy is passing again just where we left him. (00:10:50)

Bird on a Wire (1990)
Continuity mistake: When Marvin falls back after the legs prank, he knocks down several bottles of motor oil, but two piles of boxes stay up. In the close-up that follows Mel Gibson's yuckety laughter, there's just one pile behind Marvin, and he suddenly has also a red rag on his shoulder (the same rag Gibson picks up later since it falls off the pants of the fake legs when 'Billy Ray' picks them back up). (00:07:40)

The Sound of Silence (2019)
Continuity mistake: In Central Park before meeting the toaster client, Peter Sarsgaard in the close-up has 2 tuning forks in his right hand and one in the left, but in the wider shot he has two in his left and one in his right as he picks up the mallet. (00:07:10)

Dragonball Evolution (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Bulma falls in Muten's arms, on the overhead shot you can see her knock the sunglasses off his ear. In the close-up though, Chow Yun-Fat wears them perfectly. (00:38:05)

Ranma ½ (1989)
Ranma to Ranma? Gokai ga tomaranai - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: The shape and order of the 5 pictures laid on the table by Nabiki differ entirely from the POV close-up of Kuno. That happens also with the shots of Akane. (00:12:50)
29th Sep 2019
Dragonball Evolution (2009)
Continuity mistake: Goku kneels by the grave of his Grandpa. His hand is on a stone, showing a white stripe between thumb and index. In the close-up, the stone is turned differently. (00:22:15)

Ranma ½ (1989)
Asobi ja nainoyo gakkou wa - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Tatewaki Kuno shows up, the clock tower shows 8:35, when the clock was shown advancing from 30 to 31 when Akane finished the last opponent a moment earlier. (00:10:35)
29th Sep 2019
Dragonball Evolution (2009)
Continuity mistake: In the close-up of her DBE in front of Roshi's house, Bulma is holding the device with both hands. She is browsing it with just the left hand in the wider shot. (00:28:00)
29th Sep 2019
Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: Carving the distant relative of his parrot for dinner, Poirot slices one side in the close-up, which turns out to be the exact opposite side in the wider shot. (00:38:35)
29th Sep 2019
Dragonball Evolution (2009)
Continuity mistake: When Goku calls forth Shenron, Chow Yun-Fat is lying in a different spot on the ground between the wide shots and the close-up (look at the rock by his ear). (01:13:15)
29th Sep 2019
Ranma ½ (1989)
Ranma to Ranma? Gokai ga tomaranai - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Kuno tosses the doll to Ranma; he catches it in horizontal position, but is holding it by the waist in the following shot while Kuno is still mid-sentence. (00:15:45)
29th Sep 2019
Ranma ½ (1989)
Hone made aishite? Akane koi o fukuzatsu kossetsu - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Akane bares Ranma's chest against the outer wall, the crowd behind her varies throughout the scene (for instance the fencer pops up out of the blue). (00:14:40)
29th Sep 2019
Can You Keep a Secret? (2019)
Continuity mistake: A tipsy Emma puts her feet up in first class. The flight attendant tells her that it's unacceptable; her right hand is high-low-high again between shots. (00:08:05)
29th Sep 2019
Ranma ½ (1989)
Asobi ja nainoyo gakkou wa - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: The polo shirt of the guy leaning unconscious against the school gate is pale violet for the greater part of the scene, but orange when Panda rushes in. (00:14:15 - 00:15:20)
29th Sep 2019
Dragonball Evolution (2009)
Continuity mistake: Bulma and Goku talk about the upside of working together. Emmy Rossum's hair when she stands in the door is agitated by wind or not, changing position. (00:26:05)
29th Sep 2019
Ranma ½ (1989)
Asobi ja nainoyo gakkou wa - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Genma wins a bout of midair kicks and knocks him into the pond, the table is empty in the wide shot, while breakfast is ready when Kasumi speaks. (00:02:55)

Eva Doesn't Sleep (2015)
Factual error: Evita Peron died in 1952. In this movie, the doctor finishes embalming her during the Coup d'état that deposes her husband...in 1955.
29th Sep 2019
Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
Factual error: Poirot is cycling through Wimbledon; he passes by a house which has a definitely non-1930 car in the yard, and a yellow alarm box on the first floor. (00:18:20)
