Breakdown (1997)

Revealing mistake: During the chase on the dirt road, Jeff pulls the Jeep up to the edge of a cliff. Look at the ground ahead of where he ends up. There are clear tire tracks, and the Jeep follows them to a T. This was obviously where they practiced the scene before.

Breakdown (1997)

Revealing mistake: There are no keys in the Jeep when we see the breakdown happen. You can see the steering wheel and where the keys should be. How is this car even moving? (00:08:05 - 00:08:35)

Careful What You Wish For - S2-E17

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, a bunch of money falls from a building. Of course people are grabbing it but when the First Responders show up, everything has miraculously been cleaned up. No money to be found. With the amount that has fallen and the chaos, there would likely be some left over. The street is squeaky clean.

Trivia: During the chase with the ark, the truck Indy is driving comes around a turn. The sound effect the truck makes is a lion roaring.

Deliberate mistake: When the cop car is ramming the back of the trunk of Dorff's car, you can tell it is a Ford. The filmmakers however, have put gaffer tape over the logo.

Brake (2012)

Factual error: Throughout the film Stephen Dorff talks to the other agent on the CB. CBs have no way to receive while transmitting, yet the two men overlap each other's conversations.

Visible crew/equipment: As the bad guys are leaving the dig site for Cairo, there is a shot of the black vehicle (lead car) looking right at the driver. On the bottom of the shot is a shadow of film equipment that shouldn't be there. The shot lingers, so the shadow is very visible. (01:22:50)

Continuity mistake: Arnold holds a hot stick of metal to Marion's face in her bar, threatening her. In the opposite angle, the metal is nowhere to be seen when it should be right next to her face. Cut back to the other angle and we see it again.

Big Game

Visible crew/equipment: At the hotel where Indy knocks on Elsa's bathroom door, she opens it and shuts the music off. The camera pulls backward and its shadow is visible on the left side of the door frame. It's fairly large.

Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)

Trivia: Near the beginning, the kids are watching something on TV with a man transforming another man's face. This is the second episode of the 1963 television show The Outer Limits, known as The Hundred Days of the Dragon. Part of the plot of this episode involves a man wearing a mask and makeup pretending to be someone else. That's the plot of Mrs. Doubtfire as well.
