The Incredible Hulk mistake picture

Continuity mistake: In the motel room, Betty gives Bruce a new heart monitor watch, still in its box. In a subsequent shot, the box has disappeared and Bruce is putting the watch on. The cut to Betty and back is too fast for him to have taken the watch out and junked the box. (01:04:10)

Sid and Nancy (1986)

Factual error: In one scene, Nancy gives Sid his trademark chain/padlock necklace. That item was actually given to him by The Pretenders front woman Crissie Hynde.

Trivia: When Lucy finds Narnia the second time, the "wind" that blows out her candle is a crew member inside the wardrobe blowing the flame out.

Trivia: To illustrate the Telmarines' oppression of Narnia, the Old Narnians' physical appearance is wilder than it was in the first film. Howard Berger, the film's creature supervisor, rationalized that this was because they had been hiding in the woods for more than a millennium.

Question: Is it necessary to view Hulk before seeing this film? Or is it stand-alone with a self-contained storyline?

Cubs Fan

Chosen answer: It's entirely self-containing - effectively the film acts as a relaunch of the franchise rather than a continuation, although it doesn't really have any continuity issues with the first.

Lost (2004)

Trivia: Evangeline Lilly almost wasn't cast as Kate. As a Canadian citizen, problems arose regarding her visa and Screen Actors' Guild paperwork. She managed to get everything in order the day before the pilot began shooting.

Family Guy (1999)

Chosen answer: According to the episode commentary, it is literally just frame by frame editting of a sequence from the film "Anchors Aweigh", in which Gene Kelly dances with Jerry Mouse (from Tom and Jerry). They drew Stewie over Jerry in each frame, which is why he seems to stretch oddly in some parts (they had to match Jerry's movements exactly).

Gary O'Reilly

Audio problem: In the Pevensies' treasure chamber, there is a giant rock on top of Peter's treasure chest. When he opens the chest, the sound of the rock hitting the ground is more like that of a small pebble. (00:22:55)

Lost (2004)

Chosen answer: Nope, Charlie's British, most likely from Manchester. The name Liam was chosen for his brother as a deliberate nod to Liam Gallagher, who, with his brother Noel, formed the real-life band Oasis, which was part of the inspiration for Drive Shaft.

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Caspian confronts Miraz in the bedroom, he holds his sword with the point directly at Miraz's throat. But in one shot, the blade is closer to Miraz's beard than it is the rest of the scene. (01:11:40 - 01:12:25)

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Miraz talks to Dr. Cornelius about Susan's horn, he drives an arrow into a pile of parchment, and it sticks out slanted. A few shots later when Miraz talks to Lord Sopespian, the arrow sticks up straight. (00:30:45 - 00:32:20)

Atonement (2007)

Continuity mistake: When Briony walks in on Robbie and Celia in the library, the door is slightly ajar (since it's the lamp in the room that catches her attention). But when the scene is replayed from Robbie and Celia's perspective, Robbie shuts the door completely.

Gilmore Girls (2000)

Factual error: At the beginning of the film, John Wilkes Booth is seen departing the tavern and arriving at Ford's Theater by horse. The tavern is actually right next to the theater.
