Other: As Dick Hallorann arrives in the Sno-Cat Jack is still upstairs in the apartment. 25 seconds of uninterrupted movie time goes by and we see Jack, limping and barely able to move, in the kitchen chasing after Danny. Earlier in the movie it took Danny almost two minutes on his speedy trike to navigate the bottom of the building and 25 seconds just isn't enough time for lame Jack to get down from the apartment to the kitchen.
Continuity: Wendy runs from the boiler room through the kitchen into The Colorado Lounge as she hears Jack screaming from the nightmare he's having. We distinctly see her pass two vending machines on her right but when we saw this spot before as Danny took his trike ride near the beginning of the movie, there were three vending machines across from the staircase.
Continuity: At the end of the movie Danny runs into the hedge maze entrance and the Overlook is missing on the left of the shot. It's there earlier in the movie during Mr. Ullman's tour when we see the exact same spot. There is no blinding snowstorm and as we see in the map and on the miniature of the hedge maze there's only one entrance.
Continuity: After he axes through the bathroom door Jack ends up chasing Danny through the kitchen and walking past the store room he was just locked up in. If you look closely the back wall of the store room has been rearranged considerably with boxes now stacked at least six foot high extending past and covering the prominent no smoking sign that we saw earlier.
