The Last of the Mohicans (1992)
Visible crew/equipment: Right before Munro is attacked by Magua and killed, there is a shot of a soldier falling right toward the camera. The shadow of the camera becomes very obvious on him.

March of the Wooden Soldiers (1934)
Continuity mistake: When Tom is on trial, the large crowd is there to witness. Barnaby is there, thinking he got away with his ploy. There is a man standing next to Barnaby who disappears from the wide shot and reappears in the closeups.

The Truman Show (1998)
Visible crew/equipment: Right as Truman is leaving to go to Fiji in the sedan, he backs out of the driveway. The shot is a camera attached to the rear of the vehicle. The rig is reflected in the bumper on both sides of the license plate.

Wild America (1997)
Revealing mistake: The bats coming through the cave mostly appear to be rubber or plastic as they fall the first time. You can tell as some just fall down to the ground and don't fly. They switch to computer generated after that.

Wild America (1997)
Revealing mistake: The bears turn their heads at the cave to a sound, and both are standing on their hind legs. They both are people in suits. They look incredibly fake.

The Enforcer (1976)
Continuity mistake: When they're demonstrating the LAW rocket, Callahan's new female partner is standing behind the instructor. He pulls her away before the rocket fires. The angle cuts, and she's back closer to the instructor again. If she was standing where she was the second time, she would've been hit by the exhaust (which is why he pulls her away).

It's a Wonderful Life (1946)
Continuity mistake: When Violet is leaving for New York, right before she says "I'm glad I know you George", the scene cuts. This is the same camera angle as before so the scene appears to be an edit splice. The jump cut is obvious. The reason for the rough edit is that a short sequence was cut where Violet asks George to run away with her to New York. It doesn't excuse the jump, but does help explain it.

Batman and Robin (1997)
Audio problem: When the telescope is falling and the two people are with Batman, he tells them to grab onto his belt. The audio is terribly clipped.
7th Jan 2022
The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)
Revealing mistake: As the ghost of Christmas present is finishing "It feels like Christmas", the camera starts to crane up. Look to the far right. The forced perspective effect starts to become noticeable with the background row of buildings. There are people that are slowly walking down that street and you can tell they don't get smaller as they should. Director Brian Henson said they were hoping people wouldn't notice the error.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, the oil spray pattern cleans itself from the firefighters' face shields in the span of a few cuts.

31st Dec 2021
Dumb and Dumber (1994)
Continuity mistake: During the snowball fight scene at the ski resort, it's either snowing or not depending on the angle. In one shot it's sunny. The first two shots showing just Harry feature snow. Cut to Mary and it's not snowing.
28th Dec 2021
Family Guy (1999)
Road to the North Pole - S9-E7
Other mistake: Cleveland's house, across the street from the Griffins, is absent in the opening overhead shot. Then the scene changes to inside, and we can see his house through the window.
28th Dec 2021
Prancer (1989)
Continuity mistake: When Sam Elliot is reading his newspaper, and Prancer can be seen in the background, it's snowing in one window but not the next. Then it's sunny, then snowing again.
28th Dec 2021

20th Dec 2021
