Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)
Continuity mistake: Before the water tank falls, there's a shot on Mola Ram and his people next to it. Then there's a wide shot of the tank about to burst and the people running away from the area. Then the previous shot of Mola Ram standing calmly with his men by the tank is repeated, which makes no sense.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)

2nd Nov 2012
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)
Revealing mistake: When the water floods the mine, some shots of the 3 heroes are an obvious composite of their blue screened image over a set. Problem is, when Indy tells the two to run towards a tunnel on the right with a log blocking the way, Indy and Shorty run through the log as if they were ghosts.

Looper (2012)
Continuity mistake: When old Seth is running away and sees his scar, the length of the sleeve rolled down changes between shots.
Suggested correction: The sleeve length is changing because old Seth is pulling his sleeve down to read the scar.
2nd Nov 2012
Looper (2012)
Continuity mistake: When Sara points her gun at the field and cries "don't give me no hobo story", her hair around the right side of her face and neck changes positions between shots.
Suggested correction: Her hair is moving because of the wind. Her hair is never in a still position during that scene as her hair is moving in the wind. Same goes for the stalks in the fields moving because of the wind.
