Trash - S1-E14

Revealing mistake: When Simon prepares an injection for Jayne, you can see him insert it and draw back a considerable amount of fluid from the medicine vial, but the level of liquid in the vial does not drop.

Deliberate mistake: Gonzo and Rizzo are selling apples in the beginning, including the Red Delicious cultivar. That wasn't invented until the 1880s and the story is set sometime in the first half of the 1800s. Most likely intentional as they are the narrators.

Sidekicks (1992)

Continuity mistake: At the end of the fight in the gym, Mr. Horn comes in and stops it. Yet in the previous overhead shot, he is nowhere to be seen. The shots are meant to be directly connected - watch Cellini's hand. In the overhead shot, he starts brushing his hair back. In the close shot, he finishes the motion from the exact point he stopped in the overhead shot.

The Net (1995)

Trivia: While walking the beach, Devlin wraps his handkerchief around Angela's waist. Cary Grant did the same thing in the film "Notorious", where he played a character named Devlin.

Space Camp (1986)

Factual error: When Control realizes that the kids are communicating with Morse code, they get someone to translate. He reads out "Request alternate landing White" in the space of 9 seconds. The lights and sounds from the CXT switch are not going nearly fast enough for him to have gotten all that. (01:32:20)

General questions

I am trying to remember a film that I think takes place at a summer camp (or at least some place with lot of kids). In it there is a scene where several boys fake a groin injury so the attractive female nurse will touch them.

LorgSkyegon

Chosen answer: The scene you describe makes me think of the 1985 TV movie "Poison Ivy," starring Michael J. Fox (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089820/), or maybe the 1984 film "Oddballs".

The Beach (2000)

Maverick (1994)

Factual error: When the camera focuses in the the clock striking five, we see the clock has patent number "19701". While this patent does apply to a clock, it was not issued until 1900, 25 years after the movie was set.

Continuity mistake: While Riddick is being scanned by the Quasi-Deads, his anger causes the glass jars to break and the liquid to spill. At least seven distinct breaking sounds are heard. But during his escape, the glass jars are intact and there is no black liquid on the ground. (00:42:45 - 00:43:20)

Factual error: Farmer MacReadie tells Phil he knew of a pig that could play Scrabble. However Scrabble was not released until 1948, three years after the war ended.

The Wizard (1989)

Plot hole: This is supposedly the first ever gameplay of Super Mario Bros. 3. Yet somehow Haley seems to know things she shouldn't, like the location and purpose of the warp whistle, a brand new item.

LorgSkyegon

Continuity mistake: Right before "Be Our Guest", Lumiere kisses Belle's hand. In the first close shot, his arm flame is lit. The far shot then shows it out. Then the second close shot shows it lit again.

Revealing mistake: When the tube is being inserted into Crazy K's nose, an imperfection in the tube is visible near the orderly's fingers. It doesn't move, despite the orderly "inserting" the tube.

That '70s Show (1998)

Son and Daughter - S8-E14

Factual error: When Donna and Randy are in Eric's bedroom, Randy is playing with Eric's toy lightsaber. However, the blade is green. No green lightsaber toys were produced until after the release of "Return of the Jedi", which occurred in 1983. Moreover, the handle is the modern style, not the vintage.

The Sandlot (1993)

Continuity mistake: When the vacuums explode in the clubhouse, Benny jumps over the railing right after Bertram and you see him fall past Ham. Almost 10 seconds later, Ham drops off the ladder. The next shot shows Ham and Benny hitting the ground at the same time.

Renaissance Man (1994)

Audio problem: At the end of the movie, when Sergeant Cass is leading the new recruits in Rago's Hamlet march cadence, there is a loud answer from the recruits he is leading. It is quite obvious that not a single recruit is saying anything.

Little Giants (1994)

Continuity mistake: After Spike and Murphy miss the tackle and hit the Gatorade, Tad turns and sees the entire Cowboys team bearing down on him. In the next shot, there are Cowboys all the way across the field. Are we supposed to believe that they ran away, then ran back?

Coming to America (1988)

Revealing mistake: While Akeem is getting his hair cut, you can see the reflection of the white character he plays in the mirror. It is quite obviously a stand-in, with a fatter face and different glasses. (00:33:45)

Armageddon (1998)

Question: Does anyone know what the NASA employee says to Lev the cosmonaut the first time we see him? It sounds like "stasveecha"

LorgSkyegon

Chosen answer: It's close to "zdrasveetsya" phonetically, which is a colloquial greeting like: "how are you doing".

A Knight's Tale (2001)

Trivia: Several of the named knights were, in fact, real, though many of them are from different time periods. Ulrich von Lichtenstein was a knight and author who was said to have invented the concept of chivalry and courtly love. Piers Courtenay was a descendant of Edward I, born in the 15th Century. Sir Thomas Colville, Edward III's disguise, was a knight from the 13th Century.

Other mistake: When Sawyer fires at the men on the roof in Venice, he shoots over 30 bullets from two six-shot revolvers.

Beerfest (2006)

Revealing mistake: During the fight between Cherry and Landfill, you can see several times that it is not Cherry, but a stunt double. The stunt double is much thinner and has much lighter skin. It is best seen when she is on the ground and Landfill is kicking her in the stomach.

The Mask of Zorro (1998)

Factual error: Captain Love's revolver is a Colt Buntline. This model wasn't released until 1876. The movie is set in 1841. He should have been using a Colt Paterson, which was invented in 1836.

LorgSkyegon

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: The pistol that Captain Love is using IS the Colt Paterson. You can see this by going to timestamp 1:58:17. If you look at the profile of the weapon in his hand and compare it to pictures of the Colt Paterson, you can see it is a Colt Paterson. The Colt Buntline does not have the same profile.

At the end of the movie Captain Love does have a Colt Paterson, but in the beginning of the movie the pistol he has is a different model. The first pistol looks a lot like a Colt Buntline.

Revealing mistake: When the centurion strikes Brian after Pilate confirms he wants him to do it, you can see the filming skip, showing that Brian wasn't actually struck.
