Suggested correction: If you look really carefully you will see that this is a part of his lower lip folded a little bit.

Revealing mistake: The Aspen lift operators are wearing Copper Mountain uniforms. Copper Mountain is in Colorado, but it is over two hours away from Aspen.

Revealing mistake: When Harry is lying on the bed at the end - you can see he's not wearing a bullet proof vest as the extra bulk they cause is not visible on his torso. However once he's shot, the bulk is visible under his shirt for the remainder of the scene.

Revealing mistake: The Asian man at the airport terminal is struggling very hard not to laugh at Jim Carrey's antics, as seen from his reflection in the glass.

Revealing mistake: In the beginning of the film, Harry reaches for his radio after getting a call. The radio is not powered. You can see the display doesn't light up.

Revealing mistake: When Harry and Lloyd are reading the newspaper about the International Preservation Society, the exact same paragraphs are repeated many times throughout the paper.

Revealing mistake: When Lloyd comes back for Harry on the scooter, it has two small training wheels on the back. They disappear in the montage of the ride to Aspen and reappear when they pull into town.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, Harry's van has bucket seats, yet later on when the "gas-man" rides along, he is sitting on a bench seat in-between Harry and Lloyd. (00:38:00)

Suggested correction: Mental isn't sitting on a bench seat, it's implied he's sitting on the floor of the van in between the both of them. Although hard to see, the backs of the bucket seats can still be seen behind Harry and Lloyd at certain points. You see a fair bit of it behind Harry whilst he's dancing as Lloyd sings the line "and if that mocking bird don't sing".

Suggested correction: Maybe the bench-seat folds down; out of the way somehow?

There's no evidence of this, especially since we see the floor where the bottles are. And it doesn't explain where the bucket seats went.
