Labyrinth (1986)

Continuity mistake: When Sarah's father talks to her when she is in her bedroom, there is a shot of the door and the walls at both sides. One wall can be seen in the reflection as Sarah sits at the vanity table in more than one shot. When Sarah runs out of her bedroom to retrieve Lancelot the walls are seen again. The position of certain things in all shots change or disappear altogether. (00:06:20)

Labyrinth (1986)

Continuity mistake: In the park, Sarah looks up when she hears thunder and in the front shot the headpiece ribbons are in front of her left shoulder. In the next back shot both sides are behind her shoulders, yet in the following front shot the left ones are in front again. (00:03:35)

Labyrinth (1986)

Labyrinth mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: At the start of the film, when Bowie sings the word, "Underground," the last word of the song, it's just at that moment the screen goes from black background to a backdrop of trees in the real park, which is the same moment the animated owl turns into a real owl, the wire attached to the real owl's left foot is visible. There is a jess (strap) around its left foot, that is also clearly visible when he lands on the obelisk in the park. (00:02:40)

Labyrinth (1986)

Continuity mistake: When Hoggle jumps off the huge metallic robot, we see him land parallel to the foot of the robot as he lies on the ground. When Sarah runs to him, Hoggle's head is now right up against the foot, while he lies there. Yet in the next shot as Sarah asks if he's alright, still lying on the ground, he is not near the giant foot. (01:17:50)

Continuity mistake: When Sarah reaches Jareth's throne room, before she says, "Oh no," there is a wide shot of the room. When she says, "That's the only way he ..." things in the room have changed position. (01:26:40)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: After Wendy admits to being Red Handed Jill, Peter walks towards her and begins to overwhelm Wendy with his blade and knocks her sword out of her hand. In the first couple of shots facing John, Michael and Lost Boys, they are positioned a certain way. Yet when Peter's blade is at Wendy's throat the boys are positioned very differently. (01:05:25)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: In the nursery, as Tink pushes the books off the top shelf, in the close-up the wooden fan is seen leaning against the books on the middle shelf. Then as Peter flies towards the hallway following Tinker Bell he passes the bookcase and the fan is gone. Yet when Peter tells Wendy about meeting Tink at Kensington Gardens the fan is back. Books on the middle and bottom shelf change in these and other shots too. (00:12:35 - 00:19:10)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: Peter, Wendy and the boys are on the cloud looking down on the Jolly Roger when Wendy comments, "She must do 12 knots under full sail." In this wide shot we see Noodler standing at the snow topped rail between the cannons. John then views Noodler in a close-up and the snow is different, there are lines lying on top of the cannons, etc. (00:29:55)

Peter Pan (2003)

Peter Pan mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Smee opens the door to Hook's stateroom, calls out, "Cap'n?" and from the exterior we see the large globe to the left. When Smee walks in, the globe is seen again from the other side, but the globe shows the exact same region and markings as when it was seen from the doorway. (00:27:35)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Smee places the pocket watch down on Hook's desk, in the close-up Hook smashes it twice and pieces of glass, metal, etc. go flying everywhere. Yet in the next front shot the loose parts are positioned differently when Hook is about to smash it a third time. (00:27:55)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Peter floats up after John says, "You offend reason sir," the clothes wardrobe is seen behind Peter and there are three very large floral hat boxes sitting on top. Yet when Michael flies and lands on top of that wardrobe the floral boxes are arranged completely differently. (00:21:10 - 00:22:05)

Peter Pan (2003)

Other mistake: When the Lost Boys spot the large white bird they argue about who gets the telescope. In the wide shot one of the twins slips and falls on the ground and looks directly at the camera with a puzzled look on his face. In the next close-up Tootles and especially Nibs start smirking, Nibs has to look down and away as Slightly says his lines and the other twin starts to look at the camera when the shot changes. (00:32:25)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: After Wendy says, "I should like to give you a kiss," and proceeds to give Peter the thimble, it is only now that Peter's 'kiss' for Wendy is on the garment he is wearing. It is not on his garment in all the previous shots of Peter. (00:17:50)
