Ken Park (2002)

Factual error: When Tate is playing Scrabble with his Grandparents, his grandfather tries to use "SIPI" as a word. Tate challenges that word. He looks it up in the dictionary to find out if it is not a word. He then says, "I see sip and sepia, but no sipi." To find sipi, he would have to look after sip, not before sip. Sepia comes before sip. He should have said, depending on which dictionary, "I see sip and sir, but no sipi."

Ken Park (2002)

Continuity mistake: As Rhonda hands Shawn the glass of water in bed, he holds a cigarette pointing down. The close-up shot shows him receiving the glass of water and passing the cigarette to her with it pointing up. There was not enough time from shot to shot to re-orient the cigarette.

Mad Max mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Just in time for the impact, the semi truck that kills Toe Cutter instantly has a large metal shield in front, painted to look like the actual front of the truck seen moments earlier. It even has all the lights painted to appear as if they are lit up.

Audio problem: When Sgt. Toomey first meets the men he says "Attention". They don't respond so he says a firmer "Ten-Hut". The words Ten-Hut were dubbed in as his mouth movements show that he actually said Attention again.

Continuity mistake: When Lucille is on the bridge the money falls out of the hat box and hooks onto a small beam. She then puts the hat box on the ground with the lid wide open. After she gets back to safety and the first cop is hassling her, a second cop approaches, he looks down then squats down. When he does we see that the hat box is not wide open, just partially open.

Saving Silverman (2001)

Factual error: When Judith wakes up chained to the engine block she notices the Sony camera on a pole. The guys are presumably watching her through that camera. The problem is that there are no cables running from that camera to provide the video feed to the TV. Sony cameras always have the video output connections on the front right hand side. There are no cables attached to this camera. (00:35:40)

Saving Silverman (2001)

Revealing mistake: Judith put 2 minutes and 30 second on the timer. The conversation between her and J.D. and Wayne was continuous. Their conversation until she beats Wayne in arm wrestling took 1 minute and 22 seconds. At this time we hear the timer go off and she says that time is up. There should still be 1 minute and 8 seconds before the timer goes off. (00:21:25)

Saving Silverman (2001)

Continuity mistake: When Judith flips over in J.D.'s chair she landed on her back. The nachos and salsa on the tray had already landed on the ground prior to her rolling off of the cushion. She rolled off the cushion onto her back. There should not have been any salsa on the front of her shirt. (00:16:45)

Audio problem: When Diamonds in the Rough are playing there is a point in the song where the guitars a strummed quickly and then abruptly stopped. The sound of the strumming stops and Wayne stops strumming, but J.D. is still strumming. We should hear his continued strumming but do not. (00:06:55)
