Revealing mistake: During his first confrontation with the alien, Hayata's pistol shoots powerful rays that don't cause a single speck of damage to the walls when the monster dodges them. They are just superimposed. (00:09:40)

Continuity mistake: J.B. Biggley at the elevators realises he's going to be blackmailed by his nephew Bud Frump. Bud's hands change position on the suitcase throughout the scene.

How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying (1967)
Continuity mistake: There is an executive lackey next to president Biggley that tells Finch he committed "industrial suicide." If you look at the earlier part of the scene when Biggley was talking, that man was holding his newspaper at a different height depending on the camera angle used. (00:06:00)

How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying (1967)
Continuity mistake: Finch bumps into the president of the company himself. Unscathed, J.B. Biggley tells everyone to go back to work. Finch straightens his jacket, which pops the collar of the shirt out, but in the next shot he's still hunched over with the shirt burrowed under the jacket. (00:05:55)

Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E5
Other mistake: When the two horrible guys harass her, Miyuki and Kenmochi are both drinking wine. Miyuki is underage, and while certainly not technically and materially impossible for someone underage to drink wine even with a police officer present, in pretty much every episode when there's a party it is made clear both in dialogues and visually that underage characters are not having alcohol. They drew the wrong type of glass. (00:08:45)

Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Kindaichi throws the luggage at the second mate Mizusaki, the proportions of the bags wildly change between shots. (00:04:50)

Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Ghost Passenger Ship Murder Case: File 1 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: Kenmochi dumps two heavy bags on top of Kindaichi, then picks up two suitcases himself; a pink one in his right hand, a dark blue one in his left. When the second mate asks him the ticket, the two suitcases have swapped, and Kindaichi a moment later carries the heavy bags but also suitcases with the same colors as Kenmochi's, which he gave to the second mate...who is carrying a single suitcase, and grey. Later on, we see only those 2 bags and 2 colored suitcases, anything else vanished. (00:04:10)

Death on the Nile (1978)
Continuity mistake: Poirot watches Jackie leave the hotel seemingly falling for Simon's ruse. He's having breakfast; when he puts the croissant in his coffee, the hand holds the brioche with its flat side upwards. Ustinov in close-up is eating the brioche with the curved side up. (00:27:00)
14th Mar 2022
Death on the Nile (1978)
Continuity mistake: When madame Otterbourne says hi from her natural element (the bar), David Niven pokes his head in behind Ustinov's, but in the next shot he's not leaning in, he's more like standing behind him, straight. (01:34:00)
14th Mar 2022
Death on the Nile (1978)
Continuity mistake: When Colonel Race comes to Poirot's rescue, Poirot's arm is outstretched and stays that way even after a reaction close-up on Peter Ustinov with his arm lowered, as you can tell by the part of his arm in frame. (01:26:55)
14th Mar 2022
Death on the Nile (1978)
Continuity mistake: When Race and Poirot lift Simon Doyle from the bed, he helps himself up using Peter Ustinov's arm in the first shot, David Niven's in the second. (01:20:05)

Crush Crush
Character mistake: One of Cassie's lines in the nude is "Take a picture, it's lasts longer."
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Continuity mistake: When Pacino introduces the country workers to "My nephew Maurizio" his sunglasses suddenly jump from his head to his hand. Adam Driver in this second shot affectionately touches his wife's back, and the gesture is repeated in the next angle change. (00:44:20)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Continuity mistake: When Maurizio tells Patrizia to stay away from "Gucci" and that he can handle the company himself, Lady Gaga's hand is higher up on the bedpost, past the ring. It's lower, below the ring, in the reverse shot. (01:38:40)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Continuity mistake: When Patrizia retorts Maurizio's confrontational attitude with "YOU are an unnecessary detail" she holds the glass with her right hand, which becomes the left in the reverse shot. (01:36:30)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Continuity mistake: When Maurizio corrects Patrizia saying the restaurant was at the second floor of the Tour Eiffel, Lady Gaga goes from both hands joined to one hand up in the air in the middle of a gesture. An even more blatant instance later when he lambasts her saying they wouldn't tell her if they did mind her gab. (01:36:05)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Factual error: The judge sentences Aldo to a year and a day of prison, and that's accurate, but he adds "In a state penitentiary." Aldo Gucci served time at the so called "Club Fed", the Federal Prison Camp of Eglin. (01:22:50)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Character mistake: Paolo whines at the phone about his father going to jail when he's 70 years old. Like Al Pacino who plays him, Aldo Gucci was 80 at the time of the arrest. (01:21:35)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Factual error: Aldo Gucci's arrest happened in January 1986, but when Paolo reads the news on "La Stampa", the article next to it refers to researcher Thomas Chalmers asking for a smoking ban on US airlines. That's August of the same year. (01:21:10)
12th Mar 2022
House of Gucci (2021)
Other mistake: The IRS agent that knocks at the door of Aldo's squash booth sports a badge that is more phony than a football bat; it doesn't have a name, expiration date, or a full sentence on it. (01:21:05)
