God's Not Dead: We the People picture

Continuity mistake: The clock in the kitchen (opposite the room where Brandon was sitting) was inconsistent, going from 7:20 to 12:22 to 12:25 then to 11:29 (AM) during the short time Rebecca was talking to Mr. Hill. (00:04:40 - 00:05:24)

Asteroid picture

Continuity mistake: At the Internet Store, Spencer was told his house was "right outside" the service area, internet was not available, and a satellite would not work. At the Phone Store, Chad told Lynn and Zoe they were in the "dead zone." When Lynn answered Spencer's call by putting her head out the upstairs window, she said, "The service is great up here." Lynn and Zoe could listen to the news on their cell phone in the kitchen and Zoe read about asteroids just outside the front door. Internet worked? (00:04:53 - 00:28:00)

The Forgiven picture

Continuity mistake: David's [Ralph Fiennes] glass on the table is filled to within about 1" from the top. When he raises the glass to his mouth, the amount is about 1" lower, which may explain why the lemon slice is now floating diagonally instead of vertically. (00:01:36)

Below the Fold picture

Continuity mistake: After Diane lit and switched her cigarette to her right hand (and off-camera), most front views of her left arm showed it in front of her, along her stomach, but rear views showed her holding the cigarette in her left hand with her arm more perpendicular to her stomach. Whether her left elbow was fully on the table or over the edge also varied numerous times. (00:08:00)

The Tender Bar picture

Continuity mistake: The appearance of young JR's hair has many inconsistencies. For example, JR's parted bangs (on the left) are long enough to hang part-way into his right eyebrow while he is walking toward the bedroom, but his bangs are well above his eyebrow when he is standing in the bedroom doorway. When JR is in bed that night, his bangs are separated along the right side of his forehead, but neatly combed together (no gaps) after a camera shift and contrary to gravity. (00:05:10)

Continuity mistake: The changes/inconsistencies in how the lobsters were arranged on Frank's and Hildy's plates cannot be accounted for based on their movements while eating/cracking them open. (00:59:35 - 01:00:37)

Suggested correction: That's not what happened. It was a montage scene. It's not 3 different players, it's the same player and 3 different hands. Notice the card is always dealt to the same spot.

Continuity mistake: When the body of Glyndwr Michael (Major Martin) is found by fishermen near Huelva, the sun is setting in the west, almost touching the horizon.

The Lost Daughter picture

Continuity mistake: Ed Harris plays a property manager character and is featured in the beginning of the movie, walking with a pronounced limp, a seemingly painful gait. His character is shown in many other nominal scenes throughout the movie without limping. Most notable, shortly before the end of the movie, his character is shown dancing wildly, spastically, and jumping to music, seemingly unencumbered and fluidly, in a way that his character in the first part of the movie would not have been capable of doing.

Continuity mistake: Vivian is trying on a red dress in her dressing room when Lucille comes in to talk to her. Throughout the scene as the shots switch back and forth, the dress goes from being pulled up on Vivian's right shoulder, to off the shoulder part way down her arm.

Aileen Wuornos: American Boogeywoman picture

Continuity mistake: Before Jen gets on the yacht, Aileen's green halter strap can be seen because the left side of her hair is on or over her shoulder. When Jen gets on board, Aileen's hair is in front, covering up the green strap. The camera shifts when Lewis is hugging Jen and Aileen's green strap is visible again with the left side of her hair behind her. There is no noticeable wind and Eileen is standing in the same place.

Continuity mistake: When Hagmaier is in the Florida State Prison room waiting for Bundy, his hair changes. Initially, his short bangs are straight across the middle of his forehead.
