John Tucker Must Die (2006) - 28 mistakes

Other: In the beginning of the film, when Kate is talking about all of the boyfriends Lori has had, she says that her mum has developed a very mature reaction after each man. She has a therapy session and then packs up and moves. Just before, we see men coming out of the same house, not different houses as if they had stayed in the same place and not moved, like Kate said.

Deliberate "mistake": When Carrie is hiding in the locker room to record John talking with his friends, it's clear that her camera is behind the vent, and the openings in the vent are closer together then the diameter of her camera lens, however we don't see the vent slats in the camera view or the replaying of the video footage in a later scene. Not to mention the fact that she isn't holding the camera steady. This is impossible.

Continuity: In the gym after Heather puts estrogen into John's "Bulk Up" tub, pay attention to when John takes out the first scoop. It disappears in the next shot, then reappears in his hand later.

Continuity: When they're in detention, just before Heather starts talking there's a chair next to her with a black bag on it. The next time we see it the bag has moved slightly.

Continuity: At the beach, when Kate's getting there, you can see her bra strap; the next shot, when she turns around, her shirt's covering it.

Continuity: The school's bear mascot in the beginning (when Ashanti's character is being introduced, and she's cheering) is first shown with pom-poms, yelling, "Heather's hot." The next shot 1 seconds later, the mascot is breakdancing and has nothing in his paws/hands.

Deliberate "mistake": In Kate's voiceover at the end, she's talking about how it took three days to get the stripper cake out of her hair. But the cake that the bikini-clad girls popped out of was cardboard, which is wheeled away before they bring John's actual cake out (which is what they throw at each other).

Continuity: When Heather is asking John Tucker about whether or not he's cheating on her PE classmates, pay attention to the two handbag straps (one black/one white) on her right shoulder. In some shots the white strap is covering the black one, and in others they're both side by side.

Continuity: When Scott is talking to Kate in the school lobby about how he's supposed to be a spy for John, pay attention to the background when they're both staring into each others' eyes. In one shot there are two people by the pillar, 2 seconds later they're gone. Then Kate says "Go, fight, roar" and suddenly those two people are there again.

Continuity: In the classroom scene where Scott and Kate are talking (just before all those guys turn up with flowers for Kate), the colour of her pen changes from green to red between shots.

Continuity: During the first scene where we see John Tucker, he is playing basketball. Between shots his headband changes from black to red to black again.

Continuity: In the gym, when the girls are fighting Kate gets smacked in the face with the volley ball and she falls down to the ground, but in the next shot she's standing behind the girls, then in the next overhead shot of the gym she's getting up.

Continuity: In the scene where John is asking Kate out during the basketball game, he waits until she says yes, then makes the winning 3 point shot, the final score is 66-65, but after Arielle makes the news report the score board shows 68-65.

Continuity: In the cinema where the genital herpes incident occurs, when the girl that John is with stands up to leave - notice the guy with the afro wearing a yellow t-shirt in the row just behind them. In the very next shot he's suddenly gone.

Continuity: When Carrie hides in the guys locker room she videos John saying "Let's just say, at tonight's away game I'm gonna be scoring more than baskets". In a later scene when Carrie replays the video to Kate he says "I will have you know, at tonight's away game I'm gonna be scoring more than baskets".

Other: In the very beginning of the movie, we first meet John Tucker as he makes a slam dunk. Obviously, this would be worth 2 points. However, if you watch the referee behind John, he signals a 3 point shot.

Continuity: When Kate and John are talking on the boat, the amount of visible skin on Kate's left shoulder changes between shots.

Continuity: Near the end of the film when Kate is apologising to John, the amount of hair hanging over her right ear changes between shots.

Continuity: When Carrie, Beth and Heather demand to know what Kate and John got up to on the boat, pay attention to Heather's scarf. Its status changes between shots, including a brief moment where it appears on her other shoulder.

Continuity: When the girls are in the bathroom and Beth says "Not that slowly. We don't want him to think you're retarded.", notice how she's standing right in front of the cubicle door. In the next shot she's standing in the middle of the room.
