Hamon shissô ôbâdoraibu - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Jack the Ripper escapes from the encounter with Zeppeli, Zeppeli is standing with the wine bottle intact, despite being broken at the bottom during the previous onslaught. In close-up as he pours for JoJo it's broken again. (00:19:05)

Hamon shissô ôbâdoraibu - S1-E4

Character mistake: When Zeppeli drills a hole in the wine bottle, the wine is called "Mezzennotti Topo", which is grammatically incorrect Italian (it would mean a nonsensical "Midnights Mouse", but it's spelled wrong anyway). (00:15:55)

Sammo

Dio to no seishun - S1-E3

Other mistake: During the fight, Dio seems to have the upper hand a first time when he bends JoJo's spear. In a Batman-like manoeuvre, Jojo disappears when Dio is facing the other way to finish his speech, but the weird part is that all the corpses are suddenly gone too.

Dio the Invader - S1-E1

Other mistake: JoJo finds inside the basket full of grapes the handkerchief he lost. Somehow, the name embroidered on the handkerchief quadrupled in size. (00:14:05)

Sammo

Dio the Invader - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: JoJo has been unjustly ostracized by his pastel-wearing friends. Erina witnesses his commiseration behind a tree; in close-up she is holding the basket with her right hand on the handle, but it's not that way in the wider view. (00:13:50)

Sammo

Dio the Invader - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: George Joestar thanks the man who he believes to be his saviour; he's gripping his right hand, and asks his name. In the next shot, Dario Brando's own left hand is the only hand gripping his right. (00:01:35)

Sammo

Visible crew/equipment: In the opening sequence, Sammo Kam-Bo Hung is scavenging the dead soldiers (with one hilarious twist) - however, when he is holding the ring, in his sunglasses you can see several very much alive crewmembers standing. (00:02:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Rambo wakes Tuba up spilling the cup's content on his face, but the liquid almost completely vanished when it cuts back to Sammo Hung's face. (00:56:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the policewoman slaps Tuba for dilly-dallying during her rape, Sammo puts his hand on his cheek. In the reverse shot you can see he moves the hand away, but it's back where it was when we go back to the original camera angle. (00:48:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: To go to the place where he has to deliver the blackmail money, Sammo jumps on a taxi with a large round sticker on the back passenger window, and gets off a taxi without such sticker. (00:26:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the gag where Joanne asks Tuba where does he live, two ladies (could be mother and daughter age-wise, the younger one wears a black and yellow vest) are walking out of frame behind Joey Wang towards Sammo Hung, but they do not show up in the matching reverse shot, only in a later shot. (00:20:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Under the stern watchful eye of the new female store manager, Sammo picks up a box of cereals. He looks at the gap he created on the shelf, and sees her. Notice that both boxes of Frosties at the side of the gap are facing him, but in the reverse shot, one box faces in, the other faces out. (00:18:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the comedy scene in the kitchen, Sammo Hung crushes eggs getting yolk all over his apron. When he actually crushes them, the yolk spills also on his bright red waistcoat, which is immaculate in the rest of the scene. (00:08:00)

Sammo

Strange New Worlds - S1-E1

Character mistake: The Enterprise is targeted by projectiles from the planet. Spock identifies them as "plasma torpedoes", and Captain Pike reacts with surprise; "Plasma torpedoes? That's 21st century tech" and from that they all establish that the civilization they contacted is not yet capable of warp drive. Plasma torpedoes are the main weaponry of the Romulans centuries later, and Earth itself did acquire warp drive in the 21st century, so this claim and deduction don't seem to add up. (00:22:15)

Star Trek: Picard (2020)

Watcher - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: At the detention center, the charming doctor approaches Rios. Cristobal makes a bit of a lame joke about his late mother. The hair in front of the doctor's shoulder changes abruptly in the reaction shot. (00:19:30)

Sammo

Magical Express Murder Case: File 4 - S2-E13

Plot hole: The ending twist is nonsensical; the disciples have been using the tricks in Reiko Chikamiya's notebook for over 5 years, so the 'trap' inside the notebook could, and should, have happened at any point during that time. There's nothing in the killer's actions that makes that particular magic trick happen, nor he swapped or manipulated it.
