Mistakes in cinema and rental titles

Anyone But You picture

Continuity mistake: Right before Ben jumps off the cliff, he drinks a small cup of coffee and places it back on a saucer that Jonathan is holding. When the shot cuts, the saucer is still visible in Jonathan's hand, but the cup cannot be seen on it. The cup then reappears in the next shot.

Barbie picture

Factual error: Gloria's vehicle is a Chevrolet Blazer SS EV, but during the chase scene, her supposedly electric vehicle makes sounds like a normal gas engine.

Dune: Part Two picture

Factual error: When Raban meets the Baron Harkonnen in Harkonnen's bath, the water reaches nearly the top of the bath. As Harkonnen's large body descends into the liquid, the level of the liquid does not rise, in contradiction to Archimedes' principle. (00:46:37)

The Equalizer 3 picture

Character mistake: When McCall put his gun to his head and pulled the trigger, he's saddened that it didn't go off. Most handguns (including the one he was using), after the last round is fired, the slide locks to the rear. He would not have made the mistake of thinking it was loaded.

Fast X pictureFast X mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Letty places the necklace on Dom, the actual cross is almost touching the neckline of his top. When the shot changes, the cross is much lower down the chest. (00:15:05)

Fatman picture

Other mistake: The location of snow that accumulated on the porch cover or deck does not match the way snow accumulated on the SUV. The higher roof plus direction of the snowfall would have kept that part of the porch/deck sheltered from snow. (00:00:41)

Continuity mistake: Wick takes the lapel pin off and places it in his right front jacket pocket. Shortly afterwards he takes it out of his front left jacket pocket. (00:49:10 - 00:56:20)

Oppenheimer pictureOppenheimer mistake picture

Factual error: After the successful Trinity test in 1945, people in a crowd are holding small US flags with 50 stars on them (offset rows). At the time there were only 48 states and the flag had 48 stars in even rows. The 50 star flag didn't exist until 1960, after Alaska and Hawaii were made states in 1959.

Suggested correction: While this is correct, an argument can be made that since the colour scenes are meant to be subjective and the black and white scenes are meant to be objective, Oppenheimer could have been unintentionally mapping the modern US flag onto this scene.

The Ritual Killer picture

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, an Italian detective discovers the body of a girl. He puts a hand on her shoulder to roll her over; his ring and pinky fingers are touching the girl's bare skin. Not in close-up, though; all of his fingers are on the short sleeve of her dirty T-shirt. (00:02:25)

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 picture

Plot hole: Robotnik and Grandpa Robotnik are dancing through lasers. The suits reflect lasers, but their heads are completely exposed.

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

Suggested correction: Gerald notes that the lasers are specifically conforming to the shape of his body, and Robotnik explains that the suits were designed to create a field that specifically attracts/distorts the lasers.

Violent Night picture

Factual error: The opening states the location as Bristol, England. Santa is drinking in a pub on Shirely Street (neither the pub or the street exist in Bristol), then shortly after is shown leaving from the rooftop, on his sleigh, with multiple high rise buildings in the background. Bristol does not have high rise buildings in the main city centre, only a few blocks of flats, which all have flat roof tops, not like those depicted.

Wicked picture

Continuity mistake: When Glinda and Elphaba sing "two good friends", Glinda is holding her skirt with her left hand during all the walk. An instant cut later, from the front angle, she is suddenly not and her hand is in front of her skirt. (01:53:55)
