Visible crew/equipment: After Will tells Jack that he can get him out of prison, he lifts a wooden bench to use for leverage and says, "And the proper application of strength..." In the next close-up of the bench as it's positioned at the cell bars, a crewmember's fingers are gripping one of the bars at the bottom right corner of the screen. (This is only visible on VHS.)
Super Grover
Continuity mistake: At Isla de Muerta, when Will's hands are bound, Jack tosses Will the sword. In the two shots facing Will, first as he catches it then as he pushes the bald pirate, Will's hose are rolled down, whereas in the previous and following shots his hose are on properly. Orlando Bloom preferred to have the hose down during much of the shoot, when it was supposedly not visible onscreen. (This is ONLY visible on VHS.)
Continuity mistake: Aboard the Pearl, after Elizabeth begins to eat the turkey leg, in the shot facing Barbossa as he pours her wine, there is a hunk of bread with a bite taken out of it on Elizabeth's plate which wasn't in the previous shots. Problem is that it's not until three shots later that Elizabeth actually takes bread from the platter and bites into it, before dropping it. (This is ONLY visible on VHS.)
Revealing mistake: After Gillette locks the shackles on Jack's wrists, it is clear in Jack and Elizabeth's close-ups that the wider side of the shackles' distinctively shaped straight bar faces out at his wrists. However, when Jack is in the blacksmith shop, sitting at the anvil trying to break the links, the left shackle is actually around his wrist the opposite way. (This even occurs in other consecutive shots.) (00:19:00 - 00:21:30)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)
Visible crew/equipment: When Gracie spots "Fake Dolly," Dolly runs and Gracie begins her pursuit. Then just as Gracie trips on the luggage cart, her pretty orange blouse flies up at the back and Sandra Bullock's mic transmitter is visible at the back of her pants. (Note that a bit earlier, after Sam elbows Gracie in the ladies room, it isn't there as Gracie stands up.) (00:48:00)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)
Revealing mistake: While Gracie chases "Fake Dolly," as Dolly runs past the Asian couple her supposed spike heeled shoes have a filled in flat base between the fake spike heel and sole, obviously making it easier to run. When Gracie pins her to the ground, Dolly wears real spike heeled shoes. (00:48:10)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)
Deliberate mistake: As "Fake Dolly" runs away from Gracie, it is rather obvious in the shot facing Dolly as she runs down the stairs and then when she turns to look behind her, that it really is a fake Dolly running. (00:48:20)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)
Continuity mistake: At the bank, when Gracie pushes the carriage into the "housewife," she leaps on the woman, the gun goes off and the carriage falls. After it cuts to Clonsky being hit by the bullet, when Gracie and the woman hit the ground the carriage is standing upright. Yet a few shots later, as they grapple for the gun, the carriage is overturned on the floor. (00:04:40)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)
Continuity mistake: When Gracie and Clonsky are at the bank, there is a tray attached to the handle of the carriage (with a sippy cup). After Gracie tells the "housewife" there's an agent in the carriage, in the shot facing Gracie as she tips the carriage, the tray comes loose. However, in the next shot the tray is still attached. (00:04:20)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)

17th Oct 2005
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)

17th Oct 2005
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)
Continuity mistake: When Gracie is toying with Tom Abernathy about the press conference and says, "Ok everybody, I would love to stay and chat," the white handbag strap faces out, but in the next shot it's at the other side of the bag, facing Gracie. (00:44:00)
