Change mistake type:

A brief explanation of all the mistake types:

Continuity - something changing from one shot to the next, such as costumes or things in the background.

Factual error - a historical innacuracy or "real world" mistake.

Visible crew or equipment - cameras, microphones, crew members, etc..

Plot hole - a logical flaw in the film, such as a character doing something for no other reason than to further the plot.

Revealing mistake - anything which reminds you that it's a movie, such as stunt wires being visible, or glass smashing before anyone goes through it.

Audio problem - anything related to sound, such as echoes where there shouldn't be, or speech not matching lip movements.

Character mistake - something a character wrongly states as fact, or gets wrong in some other way. Not something deliberately intended to be an inaccurate statement - this is for things which are almost certainly mistakes by the scriptwriters, but might otherwise be explained away as a mistake a real person might make.

Deliberate "mistake" - these are done deliberately for whatever reason (the barriers disappearing in "Matrix Reloaded", for example - they're removed to give us a better view, rather than due to an oversight). They're still things which change during a film, rather than trivia, but deserve their own category rather than being classed with "accidental" mistakes.

Other - anything else...

Mistake Maximus is about to be executed in the forest in Germania. Maximus kneels on the floor. The swordsman steps behind him and lifts the sword above his head to drive it down into the back of the neck of Maximus. When Maximus stands up and head-butts the swordsman the swordsman's arms are now by his side and the sword gone. The next shot shows the arms back in the air, with the sword, and Maximus grabbing the sword.
