Castaways Pictures Presents - S2-E7
Plot hole: This movie was made so the castaways could be rescued, but how could they be found? The map the Skipper was pointing to didn't have anything on it that could realistically show where they exactly were, and all scenes in the film wouldn't help them get found at all, just made for good laughs.

Plot hole: During all their filming for their "silent" movie, the castaways are using talking in actual dialog to explain their overall situations on the island, but when played back at the end, it's just showing them all talking sped up without hearing voices being a silent picture. What was the point of them filming then with actual words? They may as well just moved their mouths randomly without actual words coming out. In addition, where did the "music" come from throughout the movie?

Continuity mistake: At the end of the filming, the Professor is drawing a line down the east coast of the United States on the board. When watching the film, the line is missing at the end.

Continuity mistake: As Thurston calls cut, in the wide shot Gilligan stops and his spear dips with the tip down. In the closeup, Gilligan is now holding the spear straight up by his side.

Continuity mistake: The amount of rope around Mary Ann varies between shots.
Answer: Hungarian-to-English translation aside, Erika's log-book entries were utterly meaningless. When the radio interviewer expresses confusion, Erika even reads entries from the log: "You take a left at a big, beautiful, pink tropical flower, then pull over and park," and "After the storm, we backed up and made a U-turn," etc. Her directions were scatterbrained, to put it nicely. Additionally, Erika's yacht was forced to leave the island during a tropical storm, and they lost their bearings for several days before the Navy found them. Given that Erika was such a scatterbrain, we might also assume that she didn't hire the most competent yacht crew, either.
