Continuity mistake: After Johnny and Mark return to the rooftop following the "Chris R." sequence, we see Johnny run into frame, and Claudette is standing by herself to the side of the others. Mark is not on the roof yet. Immediately after during the next few shots, Mark suddenly appears behind Claudette, and even has his hands on her shoulders.
The Room (2003)
1 continuity mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Tommy Wiseau
Starring: Greg Sestero, Juliette Danielle, Philip Haldiman, Tommy Wiseau
Genres: Drama
Factual error: When Johnny commits suicide in the end, the slide of the pistol doesn't move when it fires. (01:33:00)
Trivia: Greg Sestero is called Mark as a misguided reference to the actor Matt Damon and his film "The Talented Mr. Ripley." Writer/Director Tommy Wiseau was very taken with the film, and decided to name a character after Damon... however, he misheard "Matt Damon" as "Mark Damon" once during a conversation, and thus wrote the name "Mark" into his script for "The Room" instead of the proper "Matt." He never bothered to change the name to "Matt", thus making his intended reference null-and-void.
