Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: After the water washes Link and Zelda out of the tower, they are by the stairs. During this part while they talk, they keep changing distance and location from the stairs between shots, most notably the far shot when Link hands Zelda some shrunken weapons. (00:23:00)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Audio problem: When Ganon gets to the Triforce of Wisdom and is about to take it, he says "The Triforce is mine!". He then says "When combined with my own Triforce..." As he begins saying the second part, his mouth stops moving for a second. (00:23:20)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Zelda's room was just full of water, up to her windows and everything covered. Her bed even floats in it and buckets are dumping water on top of it. When Link and Zelda get inside the room after it all floods down the stairs, nothing is wet at all. (00:23:40)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When responding to the sound of Spryte's scream, Link opens the doors to Zelda's room and is washed out by all the water. The door is a double door at this time. But when he and Zelda go back up the steps to the same door and open it, it is now a single door. (00:23:40)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: During the fight with the deranged cleaning supplies in Zelda's room, Link gets attacked by her bed sheet and gets wrapped up. Once Zelda dispatches the mops that are attacking him, the sheet changes from being wrapped around him to just being draped over him. (00:24:20)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When asking Spryte what happened, Zelda and Link are in Zelda's destroyed room. There is a knocked over table behind them with flowers and books on the floor by it. After the Triforce is discovered stolen and the scene goes back to Zelda's room where Spryte decides to help, the books by the table are gone. (00:24:35 - 00:25:10)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Earlier in the episode, Zelda is in Link's room and there is a huge pile of dirty clothes beside Link's bed. Later that same day when they rush back into his room to see if Ganon stole the Triforce, the pile is gone. Nobody was cleaning Link's room since he as faking being sick. And Link sure didn't do it since he faked being sick to get out of ANY cleaning. (00:24:40)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Revealing mistake: As Ganon is making off with the Triforce of Wisdom, he looks back and sees Link and Zelda catching up to him on horseback. He yells "Blast! They're coming!" He then looks back forward. Watch closely, as he turns his head, the Triforce, which is neatly tucked under his arm, randomly jumps out of his hand for a couple frames, and then goes back. (00:25:30)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Just after Ganon zaps Spryte, Link is in his room practicing with his sword saying 'take that, Ganon'. He is moving past some widows and some flowers come into view between the two windows. The shot cuts to him jumping to kick a chair, and the flowers vanish. (00:25:35)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: After Ganon makes off with the Triforce and escapes to the underground, Link takes Zelda to a different secret entrance that he knows, which is in a tree trunk. As Link is reaching up to pull on a branch to open the door, Zelda is standing next to him and facing directly at the tree. But as Link begins pulling on the branch, the shot changes to a closer view and suddenly Zelda is a little further away from Link, and now facing him instead of the tree. (00:26:00)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: In the secret tunnel to Ganon's lair that Link and Zelda are in after going inside the tree, some roots attack them. One wraps around Zelda, which Link then blasts with a sword laser. She falls and there are pieces of tree root on the ground around her. But as Link is then grabbed by a root, Zelda stands up and the pieces of the root that grabbed her have vanished. (00:26:25)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: After saving Zelda from the roots, Link himself is grabbed by a tree root in the secret tunnel. Zelda breaks in with an arrow and Link falls on the ground. The pieces of the tree root are next to him. Then a trap door opens that they happen to be on at that moment and so Link, Zelda, and the tree root pieces fall through. But the next shot of them falling, the tree roots are gone. And when they fall into the holding jar, no tree roots follow. (00:27:05)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: A trap door opens up in the secret tunnel and Link and Zelda falls into a holding jar. The base of the jar appears to be a dark green color, with white spikes all around the base of the glass part. But the shot where Ganon walks up and Link idiotically tries to blast a sword laser at him, the spikes have turned to the same green as the stand. Then they go back to white again in following shots. (00:27:15)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: As the crab creature approaches the holding jar that Link and Zelda are in, Link puts his arm in front of Zelda and says "I'll handle this". The shot from beside the crab shows Link's arm stop with his hand about level with Zelda's belt. Then there is a cut to a close up, and Link's arm is now about level with Zelda's chest. It cuts back to a distance shot and again his hand is by her belt. (00:27:45)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: While in the holding jar, Link begins beating on the glass with his sword. While the crab creature shows up, his sword is suddenly sheathed again. Then moments later, back in his hand as he strikes at the crab's claws. (00:27:45)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Other mistake: The main part of the holding jar is transparent glass and open at the top. As the crab creature reaches in and begins pulling Link out, the dimensions and physics of the glass are suddenly totally broken. The back part of the glass at the top is curved up down in appearance from what we see and the part close to the camera would appear curved up. But as Link is pulled out, the back down curve over laps him, making it look like he is already outside the holding jar. (00:28:00)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: The holding jar's base section has spikes all around it. But when Spryte comes in through the trap door that Link and Zelda fell from, a shot from her perspective shows no spikes on the jar. (00:28:05)
Cold Spells - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: The crab creature grabs Link's sword while he is in the jar and Spryte fires a magic shot at the crab. This causes the crab to rear back a little and flings Link up and out of the jar, flying over the crab's back. He lands and fires lasers at Ganon. Then suddenly the crab is somehow behind Link when Link flipped behind it. (00:28:15)
Continuity mistake: In the beginning, Link is watching a blacksmith working on a horseshoe. The first shot shows the horseshoe getting hit by the hammer on a blue anvil. The shot changes to show the blacksmith himself, and suddenly the anvil is almost twice the size it was. (00:29:50)
Continuity mistake: Right in the beginning, Link is watching a blacksmith working on a horseshoe. The close up of the horseshoe shows it a goldfish orange color. The very next shot from further away shows it as a white silver. (00:29:55)
Chosen answer: It'll be to ensure that they're always facing directly away from each other, 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock, meaning between the two of them they've pretty much got 360 degree coverage. Otherwise there's a chance they might end up at say 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock, leaving themselves exposed from another direction.
