Conan the Barbarian mistake picture

Revealing mistake: At the Tower of the Serpent, after Conan and Subotai steal the Eye of the Serpent and also kill Doom's giant pet snake, Conan and Subotai make their escape; and when Valeria grabs the rope for her own escape, we can see the stunt cable used to lift her (I'm providing my own screenshots for my mistake). (00:48:05)

Revealing mistake: While the trio of thieves are using rope to climb up the wall of the Tower of the Serpent, we can see Valeria's and Conan's individual carabiners attached to the climbing cable apparatus (I'm providing my own screenshots for my mistake). (00:41:35)

J.J. Becomes a Man: Part 2 - S2-E3

Visible crew/equipment: While J.J. is in the police station cell with the mean prisoner who had beaten up five guys, J.J. quips, "A hundred prisoners in the jail, and I got to be in a cell with George Foreman." Then, in the next shot, the boom mic dips into view at the top right side of the screen. (00:12:25)

Visible crew/equipment: When 1969 Frank overhears 1999 Shepard on the ham radio telling John, "Time to die, Sullivan," in two following shots of the same angle the actor's white T-mark is visible on the rug, between 1969 Shepard's feet. First, we see it just as Julia leaps onto Shepard, and then after Frank shouts for Johnny to run, we see it again just as Johnny runs toward the camera (before Shepard's hand is blown off).

Visible crew/equipment: After Jules tells Frank to give the radio a rest, Frank heads upstairs to Johnny at his bedtime. It then intercuts between 1969 Frank and adult John simultaneously singing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game," and just as Frank sings, "Cause it's root, root, root for the home team," a crew member's hand appears between the bed and dresser in order to settle the rambunctious pup, Elvis.

Continuity mistake: When Shepard pulls Johnny down the stairs, then seizes the boy menacingly, Frank points a shotgun at Shepard and tells him to let Johnny go. In the three close-ups of Frank, note the handcuff around his wrist. When Shepard tells Frank that he'll snap Johnny's neck, in the next medium shot facing Frank, the handcuff is around his wrist the opposite way, and then it reverts back to the original way.

In this overhead shot, Beebe is wearing both of her pink boots, but in the next shot Beebe's left leg is bandaged again as it should be. (00:20:35)

Visible crew/equipment: After Paris hails Tuvok about the problem in the mess hall, a brawl breaks out. When the new Hirogen Alpha enters the galley to access the com relay, just as this Alpha removes the front panel in order to transmit a signal, the actor's green tape mark is visible on the floor.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At the start, when the carful of teens pulls up alongside the convoy's lead vehicle, in the first shot of that lead driver (his reflection is in the round wing mirror), the side of the hood reads "U.S. Army" and "276***," the partial serial number beneath. Then, in the next shot and subsequent shots, the lead vehicle's serial number reads "1B7731" to the side of the hood. Just to add, when Spalko arrives at Hangar 51, her vehicle has that "276" serial number with license plate W-539. (00:01:05)

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At the start, just as the carful of teenagers joins the convoy of military vehicles on the road, there are very long shadows being cast on the road, which vanish in the following shots. Their long shadows return when the convoy turns onto another road, but disappear again as they arrive at the main gate. (00:00:45)

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull mistake picture

Continuity mistake: During the siafu ant attack, while fisticuffs ensue between Indiana and Dovchenko, note the direction of Dovchenko's belt, with its buckle prongs to his left. Then, when Dovchenko falls backwards and the ants swarm all over him, his belt is worn around his waist the opposite way, with its prongs to his right (neither are flipped shots). (01:26:55)

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: During the jungle chase, Marion jumps out of the truck, leaving Dovchenko driverless. A few shots later, Spalko fires on the two amphibious vehicles, and when Mac removes his cap to check his head, the actor's modern wired device (earbud or mic perhaps) drops out from under his scarf/shirt and hangs over his shirt. Later, in the chamber with the crystal skeletons, Mac admits to lying about the CIA, then as Spalko climbs the chamber stairs, it looks like her lav mic is a bit visible between two upper buttons. (01:17:10 - 01:44:15)

Continuity mistake: When Indiana is with Mutt while the boy rides the motorcycle, Indiana's shoes change; note the soles change from heels to flat rubber-type soles, then back to heeled soles.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At Hangar 51, after the Soviets open the crate with the mummified alien, Indiana grabs his whip and secures guns for Mac and himself. In the close-up and wide shot, Indiana is gripping the whip within his palm, but in the next shot, the whip is held with only his index finger; then it's back to being gripped in his palm. Also, while Indiana is aiming the gun at Spalko, the military jeep behind him changes its distance, depending on the shot. (00:13:15)
