10 Things I Hate About You (1999) - 28 mistakes

Revealing: In the scene where the kids are shooting arrows and the coach gets hit by one, they send a girl to call 911. If you look closely and follow her in the background, after she runs a few yards, she slows down and eventually stops and stands there playing with her hair. Talk about help...

Continuity: When Kat and Patrick are playing paintball right before they kiss you can see that they are barely covered in paint. When they do kiss and are on the ground, they are totally covered with it.

Audio problem: When Patrick starts singing and gets that marching band to play, look closely at the cymbal player when he bangs them together - it makes the sound, but they don't touch.

Revealing: In the scene where Joey parks his car behind Kat's you hear him coming up really fast and then you see it stop, but if you look in the window across the street you can see in the reflection that the car was still and then it just moves up a little bit.

Continuity: When Bianca takes Cameron to Kat's room, she opens the third drawer. But when the camera angle changes, it's the second drawer that's opened.

Continuity: In the scene after Joey draws the penis on the guy's face, the penis drawing gets darker and more defined between when Joey initially drew it and the next.

Continuity: When Joey stops his convertible at the back of Kat's car, it's parked with his left fender right behind the other car's back bumper. But when Kat reverses, it's a few feet further forward so she hits the left door.

Revealing: In the scene where Michael is speaking to Cameron after being insulted by Kat, he drives over the edge of the pavement on his bike. If you look carefully at the pavement as he drives over the edge, you are able to see a ramp that is aiding him in driving over.

Continuity: When Cameron's friend is putting on his helmet before he goes on the motorbike you can clearly see the goggles strap over the helmet. He gets on his bike and is run off the cliff but after he gets up the strap is nowhere to be seen but his goggles are still on.

Audio problem: When Patrick is going to sing to Kat, using the speaker system during football practice, there's feedback from the microphone BEFORE he raises the faders on the mixer.

Continuity: During the prom scene Save Ferris is playing 'I Know'; it switches from the middle back to the beginning and then the end of the song over the course of the scene.

Continuity: When Kat and Patrick are in the car after the party, when they're driving there's no rear view mirror, but one appears once they stop.

Revealing: The Pedalo is not moving forward, even though Kat and Patrick are cycling away. Also, the two people are supposed to cycle at the same rate - Kat and Patrick are not.

Continuity: In the second scene where Cameron and Michael are talking to Pat in the shop, Pat puts down a bunch of triangles onto a glass surface. When the camera changes shots, he suddenly has more triangles in his hand, and he puts them down again.

Continuity: When Michael is on his scooter, his goggles are up on his helmet, but a split second later when he pulls up to Cameron, the goggles are on his face. It's all one continuous sequence and he's in shot the whole time - there's no chance for him to pull them down without us seeing.

Continuity: After Pat serenades Kat on the field, you see a shot of a "Detention Sign-In" board, where there are 9 names written, including that of Patrick Verona. However, inside the class, there are at least 14 people, all who are visible when Kat walks through the door.

Continuity: In the scene where Kat rams Joey's car her hands continuously change position on the steering wheel without Kat actually moving. First she's reaching under it, then in a closeup she puts her hand on it from above, then in the original angle her hand's underneath again.

Revealing: When the totally drunk Kat and Patrick are outside the party on the swings, Kat throws up. The characteristic sound of vomit hitting the ground can be heard but it's pretty obvious even though her hair hides part of it that nothing comes out of her mouth.

Continuity: When Patrick bores a hole in Cameron's French book, the spade bit damages the book's dust jacket as well, but when the book is held up the circular hole is perfect, and the hole's position is a bit off from the initial shot.

Continuity: After paintball, when Patrick parks the car in front of Kat's house, the car is by the walkway (between the grass) near the corner, but as they walk onto the porch the car is actually parked about 30-ft behind where it was previously parked.

Continuity: In the second scene, Cameron is in the office with Ms. Perky, there is a splattering on the window. However, when Cameron passes Patrick in the doorway, the window is clean.

Continuity: When she's talking to the guidance counsellor, in the close-ups we can see some stadium lighting outside the window over the counsellor's shoulder. In the wide shots it disappears, and is replaced by the sea. It's definitely the same window - the ornaments on the window sill are the same, and the plant to the right is the same.

Continuity: In the scene where the teacher asks Kat why the school can't buy a book "written by a black man." the white Rastas are next to and slightly in front of the teacher as they raise their fists in support, yet as the camera switches to the front view, the teacher is in front of the class and they are at least ten feet away.

Continuity: In the classroom where the students are dissecting frogs, the camera is showing a close up of Cameron and Michael talking and in the background you can see Patrick take out his tool to stab the frog. Then the camera immediately goes to a close up of him and he re-takes out the tool and actually stabs it.

Continuity: In the scene where Patrick is talking to Ms. Perky, the shots alternate between face on views of each character. You will notice that Patrick's satchel strap, and subsequently the position of his shirt and collar, changes position throughout the scene.

Visible crew/equipment: Right after Joey says "OK, you're cool by association," when he's done drawing on Michael's face, above Michael's head on the left side you can see someone's arm and short sleeve shirt as if standing by the table. In the next shot when it shows the whole table, no one is near their table.

Continuity: During the scene where Patrick talks to Kat after soccer practice, her ponytail keeps moving from behind her shoulder to in front of it.

Continuity: When Patrick is at the bar at Club Skunk, there is someone sitting next to him, but, when Kat sees Patrick the person is gone.
