Suggested correction: When this guard falls to the floor between Wolf and Snake, he points to Diane Foxington at the upper level. Then, in the many shots that follow, we do not actually see the floor area where Wolf and Snake are being held by their own two guards. While Diane is taking out a bunch of other guards in multiple shots, the guard who originally fell has had ample time and opportunity offscreen to carefully flee—just hightail it out of there. So, as stated in the mistake, that guard is gone "later" in the scene, but this is not problematic to continuity.
That is a very legitimate correction. I do have one possible counter. When Diane was perched atop the railing, the ceiling above had additional lights above her, indicating it was the top floor/level. When Diane jumps high when the lights turn red, you can count the number of floors. There are three floors above the ground level. If that's the case, I personally feel it would have been very hard for the guard to move at all, let alone flee.

Hard to Kill (1990)
Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the movie, three henchmen begin playing a game of pool. They break the grouped balls just as Mason Storm enters the room. When the scene cuts, the balls are now in different positions. (01:24:20 - 04:24:35)

Face/Off (1997)
Factual error: The premise of the film is swapping the faces of the Hero and Villain. We can see the whole face of Sean Archer is intact in a water tank, which includes his eyelids and lips. When Castor Troy wakes up and confronts the doctor, despite his face being missing, he still retains eyelids and lips, which isn't possible as they would be missing. This should result in Castor having exposed eyes and teeth. (00:46:47 - 00:48:08)

The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)
Continuity mistake: When Mario first consumes the Blue Mushroom, he emits a light that causes Donkey Kong to shield his eyes. However, later in the movie, when Peach forces Bowser to consume the same mushroom, no light is emitted. (00:49:15 - 01:21:22)

The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)
Deliberate mistake: Bowser has several teeth that appear and disappear throughout the movie. The best example of this is when Mario is trying to grab the Power Star. We see Bowser snarl at Mario before he picks him up. There is a gap between his two front teeth. However, when the scene cuts from Mario's horrified face to Bowser's face, there are now extra teeth inside that gap.

The Bad Guys (2022)
Question: Why didn't the guards reveal that Diane was the Crimson Paw or that she aided in the bad guys escaping prison? A good majority were not knocked out when they were thrown in to the prison cells. Surely even if they didn't see her face, the bad guys exclaiming her name in shock as well as removing her mask would have seriously put her identity in jeopardy. (01:00:01 - 01:03:00)
