Character mistake: In the opening scene when the bandit is going for his trigger finger, Billy is seen with his eyes slightly open in the background. His eyes are then shown to open suddenly with dramatic effect. (00:05:50)
Young Guns 2 (1990)
1 character mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Geoff Murphy
Starring: Kiefer Sutherland, Christian Slater, Emilio Estevez, Lou Diamond Phillips, William Petersen, Balthazar Getty
Continuity mistake: Late in the movie, Billy is captured and jailed in an upstairs room with Bell to guard him. A knock sounds at the door and Bill raises his rifle (cocked) and points it at the door. The door is opened revealing a lady. Bell, still aiming the rifle (now suddenly uncocked), quickly lowers it.
Judge Bristol: ...and there be hanged by the neck till he be dead, dead, dead. Now, do you have anything to say, young man?
William H. Bonney: Yes I do, your Honor. You can go to hell, hell, hell.
Trivia: John Chisum convinces Pat Garrett to accept a job as the new Lincoln County sheriff. James Coburn (Chisum) himself played Garrett in the Sam Peckinpah movie "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid."
Question: What happened to Doc's girlfriend from the first film? She risked her life to be with him at the end of Young Guns, so its a little odd that there's no mention of her in this film.
Answer: During the ending monologue from the first film, it is revealed that Doc moved east with a "celestial bride, her mother and 14 brothers and sisters."
Answer: Doc says in the movie he is married with kids. So you have to assume he married her.
