Joe Dirt (2001) - 38 mistakes

Revealing: After Joe blows up the A-Bomb, the film is reversed for a second as is evident by Joe's "I Choked Linda Lovelace" shirt.

Revealing: When Joe is strapped to the atom bomb he orders a girl to show him her boobies. When she takes her top off, you see a back shot of her (so you can't see her boobs) but her body is transparent and you can see Joe's arm through her body. Obviously, the girl was superimposed onto the shot.

Audio problem: In the scene where the janitor is tap dancing in the hallway, the tapping sounds do not match up with the times that his feet hit the ground.

Revealing: When the cop drops off Brandy's dad and it first shows him with no leg, you can see his real leg behind him.

Plot hole: When Joe arrives at his parents' caravan, he is still narrating in the background even though the shot is no longer a flashback.

Continuity: When Joe is left at the Grand Canyon by his parents, he is wearing a green "Life is a garden, dig it" T-shirt, but when he is strolling down the path at the Grand Canyon (you can see it behind him) he is wearing a plain white shirt.

Continuity: The 8-track has name on front in the beginning, Then when Joe turns it down to show I.D, Its a completely different 8-track. But the same song is playing.

Continuity: When Joe is being thrown during the fight scene, You can see it's not David Spade, but the stunt guy.

Continuity: When Joe spins the tires for the security guy, The tire that's supposed to be spinning is on the left side. But after Joe says "does this look like a piece of crap to you?" It shows the right side spinning on close up 3 times, But when they show a wide shot of the car the right side is not spinning at all and the rubber burns are on the left side of the car.

Continuity: When Joe starts to hold up the picture of his parents butts, on the right side of the podium you see grass on the microphone. When Joe asks if any one has any info, the grass is gone. It happens a couple of times during the interview.

Continuity: When Brandy's dad has his foot stuck in the railroad tracks, from shot to shot he goes from being on the inside of the tracks, to the outside. Sometimes he's standing on the wood planks and other times he isn't.

Continuity: When Clem stops dancing and starts talking to the fire extinguisher, he throws the duster broom handle down, which is in the same direction as the duster. Then when he asks question, "Does your mother sew?" the handle of duster is now sticking out the wrong way.

Continuity: When Joe peels out and the security arm goes down it is split near the lower part by the gear box. Then when security guy kisses the arm, the split is gone. Use slow mo and you can see it.

Continuity: In the scene where Joe sticks his head into the aligator's mouth, while he is explaining the 3 rules, his cigarette changes hands from one shot to the next.

Continuity: In the scene where Joe sees the "dead" janitor, he goes under the police tape twice (once when he is talking to the police officer about the death, then again when he goes to say goodbye to the janitor.)

Continuity: At the croc farm, Joe is explaining the rules. Just after he says, "I'm number one," the shot cuts and his cigarette has moved instantly from his hand to his mouth.

Continuity: In the scene just after Joe finds his parents, when they are sitting in their trailer talking, his parents have a stuffed clown between them. Just before Joe asks them if there ever was a time when they'd be staring at the moon, the clown is slumped forward with its face not visible. In the next shot, when his mom starts her sales pitch about having clowns for sale, the clown is now standing upright between them.

Continuity: When Joe is on the bridge and before he starts talking to Brandy, in some shots his boots are facing away from her, but in others you see him turned towards her.

Continuity: At the end of the movie in the scene with Joe and his parents, after Joe leaves the trailer, his dad has a beer in his left hand, then not, then again, then not.

Plot hole: The scenes involving Kickin' Wing, Clem, and the radio station are supposed to be years apart. When Joe is driving to the Hall of records, Kickin' Wing states that the incident was "more than ten years ago." Joe was abandoned in 1979, meaning this scene takes place between 1989 and 1993. In the scene where Joe denies that he saved the kids (from the gas), he refers to the incident as "15 years ago" meaning the scene takes place in 1994. By the time he gets to telling his story on the radio, it is 2001, and curiously, Joe never seems to age at all in between that time.
