Swingers (1996) - 7 corrections

Directed by Doug Liman, starring Jon Favreau, Vince Vaughn, Heather Graham

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click "make changes" when viewing mistakes, and click "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

A boom mike appears from the bottom of the frame for a few moments during a scene in the Hollywood Hills party when Mike and his friend Rob look at a woman who passes by them and say, "There's so many beautiful women here"... [This does not happen on the DVD. Must have been in the theater, which would have been the theater's mistake.] Corrected by Jane Doe

When Mikey and Trent are driving to Vegas, the top on the convertible is up. They stop at a gas station and the top is down. They get back on the road and the top is up again. [This is not a continuous scene. The shots jump from when they're on the road, then in the gas station, then back on the road. We don't see them pull in and out of the gas station. That gives them enough time to put the top down and up between shots.] Corrected by Jane Doe

At the beginning when John Favreau is on the phone in his flat you can see the cameraman reflected in the window directly in front of him. [I watched this scene carefully and there isn't a reflection of a camera man.] Corrected by Jane Doe

In the scene where T and Sue are playing hockey, T yells, "Chelios deals to Roenick, he shoots, he scores." When the television is shown, however, the assist is credited to #28 Steve Larmer instead of #7 Chris Chelios. [Trent acutally says "Chelios STEALS, to Roenick..." so it is entirely possible that Chelios would not get credit for an assist (if Chelios poke-checked the puck away for example and it ended up on Larmer's stick, who then, passed to Roenick.).]

In the beginning of the movie, when Mike is talking to Trent on the phone, and Trent is trying to convince Mike to go out, he says he has a callback for a pilot at nine the next morning. Later, they go to Vegas and don't leave until it is daytime. There's no way he gets back to L.A. before 9. Seeing as he's a struggling actor in the movie, missing his callback seems like a bad idea. [He tells Mike he has a call-back at 9 so that Mike thinks it'll be a quick trip, not an all-nighter.]

When Mike and Trent are given the $100 chips, the dealer places them on the table just in front of the chip holder. In the next shot, they appear right in front of Mike, without the dealer giving him the chips. [Just as Mike begins to say "Do you have anything smaller" you can hear the 'chink' of them being moved.]

When Trent and Mikey are driving to Vegas, the trafic tickets on the Falcon keep disappearing and reappearing. [As far as I can see, the tickets only disappear once they get to Vegas; and this would be because they want to make a good impression at the casino so that they get given 'free stuff'.]
