'Unmei no sentaku' mitaina - S1-E6

Audio problem: In front of the vending machine, Hikaru does a little prank with her eyes 'bugging out'. The English dub is fine, but the original Japanese audio has her pronounce an additional line during close-up when her lips are not moving and the mouth is shut. (00:05:40)

Ranma ½ (1989)

Midori no chikyû wa makasetoke - S1-E2

Audio problem: In the hangar scene at the beginning, Goat is talking to Akito. Seiya Uribatake in the background is arguing with his fellow mechanical worker about the reparations to the Aestivalis. The conversation happens in the back of the hangar and it is meant to be strong background noise, annoying enough to prompt Goat's reaction, but in the English dub it is so strong that quite literally most of the main dialogue is nearly inaudible because of it. The dubber also adds a surprised/scared "waah" at the end when Goat cuts him off, but that is incredibly delayed compared to the reaction of the character on screen. (00:02:35)

Out There

Audio problem: In the intro of the game, the subtitles/captions of the very few lines are greatly out of synch with the narration.

Sammo

Audio problem: Rizzo gets interrupted in his 'conversation' with Tom; he shoves away the guy with the horseshoe moustache, sending him offscreen. A noise of broken glasses and cracked wood is added, but in the following part of the scene the club is undisturbed, with a couple nearby and every table intact. It's only a minute later when the big guy comes back with a vengeance, that stuff starts breaking and people acknowledge violence happening nearby. (00:36:40)

The Lost Mine - S2-E3

Audio problem: There's a bit of a mix-up in the codenames of the cars who chase Reggie Dyer. Unit 7 is the first to give chase and it is identified by its crew with the photographer. Then Unit 8 intercepts at the rendez-vous point. Check the license plate; FVW 49. Japp mentions a "unit 10" that is not shown. Later in Chinatown, Japp calls for the other cars, and "Car 8" responds, but its license plate is now YD 8501 and it's another car model. Unit 10 is again not shown. They dubbed in the wrong voiceover, they should have kept offscreen the second response by Unit 8 and made it Unit 10's.

Escape Plan (2013)

Audio problem: The helicopter appears in front of the window (like, a few feet away) of the command deck of a ship in the middle of the ocean, with the ship being in full alert and with guards all around the premises but who all somehow missed its deafening arrival. (01:35:50)

Kiss the Girls (1997)

Audio problem: Hotel room scene; after assessing the state of a shirtless Cross' ribs, Kate says "At least now the FBI know who they are looking for." Most of the sentence is pronounced off-screen, but it begins with Ashley Judd with her mouth shut. (01:14:35)

Shaft in Africa (1973)

Audio problem: The slave recruiter in the village shoots Shaft and kills his bodyguard. The Luger gun he is using has a suppressor, but the noise it makes is the noise of a normal, not 'silenced' gun. (00:56:55)

Suggested correction: It is entirely plausible that a player does not tap the piece to the board with every move. Sometimes, you tap it hard enough to make a sound; sometimes, you just hover the piece over the square.

Twotall

Peril at End House - S2-E1

Audio problem: Nick gets supposedly grazed by a bullet fired while the plane's noise has already diminished considerably, making quite unlikely that any gunshot could be drowned out by it. (00:06:50)

Sammo

Audio problem: After the scene with the white dude visiting Sanford to look for cotton, we see the reverend being greeted by a bunch of people playing billiards. There's a marked discontinuity even in the audio played as he walks forward to a hi-five, not to mention that nobody had the cue anywhere near the green carpet but still you see in the second shot that balls are rolling.

Bird on a Wire (1990)

Audio problem: When the cop comes out of the windshield of the SUV the train smashed into, he utters a "Goddamn" dubbed in, his lips not even moving. (00:40:30)
