Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008) - 14 mistakes

Continuity: In the scene where Kimo and Peter have a beer on the beach, the position of Peter's right arm changes mid-hug. Peter hugs Kimo with both his arms over Kimo's, but as it cuts to the next shot, Peter's right arm isn't visible anymore.

Continuity: When the guy walks in on Peter naked in bed, the sheet protecting Peter's modesty is covering him in one frame, and the next moment it has vanished completely.

Continuity: When Rachel drops Peter back at the hotel after their first date, when Peter gets out of the car, Rachel turns and puts her hands on the steering wheel. It then cuts to a wide shot of Peter outside of the car and Rachel is still facing Peter's window.

Continuity: When Peter talks to the surf instructor the second time, he is holding a drink, then not holding a drink, then holding, then not holding.

Continuity: When Peter removes a piece of coral from Aldous' leg, blood immediately starts flowing from his wound, one second later the wound is not bleeding and the blood is gone even though Aldous has not moved.

Continuity: When Peter is at the bar in Hawaii ordering numerous fruity drinks, he keeps taking off the fruit and piling it on the bar. A whole banana appears on the pile before he receives the drink with the banana. When he receives the drink with the banana, the pile of fruit is there but the banana is added. Then each time the shot changes, the fruit changes, with and without the banana.

Continuity: When the hotel worker is speaking to Aldous about his demo CD, Aldous sits with his whole body facing forward. After the hotel worker does his English accent, Aldous says, "That stupid English voice, was that me?" and he sits with his whole body facing the hotel worker. The hotel worker then says, "You're really going to like it," and Aldous sits facing away, before finally Aldous says, "I'll listen to it" with his feet on the ground, facing forward, before it immediately cuts to him saying, "When you've gone". He now sits facing the hotel inspector with his feet on the seat.

Continuity: When Sarah shows up in Peter's apartment to dump him, she is first seen standing wearing jeans tucked into high, brown boots. When she later sits down, the boots are gone.

Continuity: In the scene where Peter is at the table and Matthew is collecting his plates, the glass on the right appears to slide slightly towards the camera, as Matthew sets the silverware on the plate.

Continuity: When Peter is talking to Aldous (the rocker) on the surfboard he is wearing a brown shirt, but when he saves his life and brings him to shore his shirt is black.

Revealing: When they meet up for dinner (Aldous, Sarah, Peter and the hotel clerk), the restaurant host says he is sorry that they have to wait 5 minutes, and you can see that Sarah is obviously way shorter than Aldous. From the front, Sarah comes up to Aldous' eyes, but when they cut to the back, she is almost below his shoulders. Then when they start walking, she steps off a platform of some sort. They seemed to make her taller for just that frame, and then when they are walking throughout the movie, they don't seem to compensate for the difference.

Continuity: When Peter is talking to his friend on the web cam, his hat changes positions between shots. It's high on his head then low on his forehead, high, low, etc. throughout the scene.

Continuity: When Peter and Rachel are talking on the cliff, the sky changes between overcast and sunny depending on who is speaking. Watch Peter's left shoulder; when Rachel is speaking you can see direct sunlight on it. When Peter is speaking, there is no sun.

Continuity: When Peter and his brother are talking in Peter's kitchen, the fruit loops in the plastic container are never in the same position twice. One time they are perfectly level, another time they are shifted to one side, then next the other side.
