The Christmas Venue picture

Continuity mistake: Cait plays the "forehead game" and correctly guesses that she is "snow". Cait apparently removes the paper from her forehead (off-screen). The timer bell rings, and the paper is on Cait's forehead as if she does not take it off. (00:57:28 - 00:58:08)

Carnage Collection: Bloody Big Top picture

Continuity mistake: Before "The Bailiff" shocks Killjoy in the chair, the skin above Killjoy's left lip is visible, not painted solid white like the rest of his face. Going down the elevator, that section of his mouth is uniformly painted white. (00:20:55 - 00:22:32)

Continuity mistake: Lucia's hair goes from disheveled to styled during the time it takes for Pia to say (over the phone), "You've gone almost a decade without a single, serious relationship, Lucia." Moreover, Lucia is already applying mascara. It takes longer than 5 seconds to style/fix one's long hair. (00:01:23)

Book Club: The Next Chapter picture

Revealing mistake: Vivian talks on the phone as she walks towards the camera. A couple walks behind her in the opposite direction. A bicyclist emerges from the left-center side of the screen and heads straight across the path, perpendicularly towards the couple. The bicyclist "disappears" behind Vivian, just before he reaches (crashes into) the couple, and the camera cuts to Carol. Seconds later, Vivian still walks towards the screen, and a different person walks where the couple was. (00:14:38)

Continuity mistake: Wingate pours two whisky glasses almost half-full. He pushes one glass across the table to Stubb, and the glass has less than half as much whisky in it. Wingate's glass - now closer to him - appears to have a little more than he poured into the glass. (00:22:15)

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves picture

Stuart Mason

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

Suggested correction: This person is a tiny figure on the extreme right of the screen who is on screen for a fraction of a second while the camera is panning away from him. I had to watch the scene multiple times before I saw what you are referring to. Even then, he is only identifiable if you freeze-frame the picture, thus invalidating the mistake. (At normal speed, I initially thought he was a red banner or curtain).

Plot hole: When James leaves the resort after finding his passport, he packs his bags and boards a bus headed for the airport. The bus is then intercepted by Gabi and the gang, and James gets off, leaving his belongings on the bus. The following morning, when he proceeds to leave the resort a second time, he is shown packing his bags in his hotel room, despite having left them on the bus.

Casual Person

Suggested correction: We only see him get off the bus, the next shot is him walking with the cars behind him. They could have got his stuff from the bus in between shots.
