Flight to Hell (2003)

Other mistake: Pat faints on the green, blocking the shot of the rich patron. Since the curtains were open and the group of four people was facing the entrance, which is right by the golf hole, it's impossible that nobody saw her slowly stagger her way to the green, nor heard her wheeze. (01:02:40)

Other mistake: The opening credits list Tomas Milian, Bo Svenson, Gille Kirsten, etc. Everyone (before and after) by FirstName LastName as customary, except Kirsten Gille.

Flight to Hell (2003)

Other mistake: Jack's eye pops out in a spurt of blood; besides the phony CGI effect, he manages to spray with blood the part of the glasses that faces the camera (the same direction he is facing) and not the side that faces him. Moreover, lengthy blood drips appear on his cheek only at the cut, absent in the first shot. (00:56:45)

Flight to Hell (2003)

Other mistake: The virtual chess game ends with the queen taking the other queen and then the king as the word "Checkmate" flashes. Ignoring the fact that technically the king is never taken even when checkmate is declared (many videogames add flamboyant animations), it still was not a checkmate. The king in B1 had C1 to go to, it is not under threat. (00:50:55)

Everly (2014)

Other mistake: After the sniper shot, the phone shows it's 5:45 am. That would mean the movie took place in the space of 5 hours (the phone with the bounty had the time at 12:45); unless her mother lived hours away from the apartment by car, there's no room for the events to unfold in such a timeframe. (01:04:10)

Everly (2014)

Other mistake: The blonde hair sticks out from a spot opposite to the one Everly dumped the corpse in. It should also be noted that after cleaning the bloodstain right by it's really hard to imagine she could have missed something so conspicuous. (00:42:25)

Flight to Hell (2003)

Other mistake: When the pilot reaches the plane, the car 'slides' in front of the background in an obvious fake movement. Not that a pilot would drive his car and park it on the airport lane a few yards from its wheels anyway...in between two engines of a jumbo jet even. (00:04:50)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)

Tsubasa's Resurrection - S2-E8

Other mistake: The physics in Tsubasa failed attempt at scoring are pretty zany; his body is inconsistent positions as he tumbles after the tackle, and then from the prone position in the mud he is able to dive in midair beating a player that properly ran and jumped to hit the header. (00:17:25)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)

I Can't Play - S2-E7

Other mistake: Tsubasa is way behind Misaki and coming in at a slower speed, but somehow Misaki throws a deep ball to him - and Tsubasa almost catches it! It's impossible to do that in the way shown. (00:13:20)

Sammo

Other mistake: After the intro, one girl in the bar peeks from the window and goes; "Say, here comes Gordy and Jennie." And indeed the duo is getting off the car and joins them. The problem is, the window is on the opposite side of the entrance and there's diegetic music playing throughout the scene. In other words, she saw them parking to the left, but in a split second they are coming through a door on the right. (00:02:40)

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)

Tsubasa in the Trap - S2-E6

Other mistake: The play that ends with the aerial challenge between Musashi's forward and Mamoru Izawa does not make sense, since it happens in the penalty area, which would need to be enormous to allow long range passes and lengthy runs. It was meant to start in the midfield and not in the penalty box, obviously.

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)

Tsubasa in the Trap - S2-E6

Other mistake: All of a sudden and with no explanation, in this episode the coach and the cheerleading team have things like whistles and megaphones that they never brought to matches before and didn't have when the match was underway in the previous episodes. (00:05:55)

Encounters in Semi-Final - S2-E1

Other mistake: The Nankatsu kids arrive to see the rest of the match that will choose who the other finalist is. In the shot that follows their arrival, Matsuyama and Hyuga are drawn with the wrong proportions, basically with dwarf-like legs. (00:17:15)
