Mean Girls

Revealing mistake: When the Plastics are walking down the hallway together, Cady falls into a trashcan. The trashcan stays upright, but it should tip over from the way she went in, the momentum and her bodyweight. Just a few shots prior to this, a janitor, on the left side of the screen, is seen moving that trash can, so it is apparent that it is not bolted to the ground. (00:44:00)

Revealing mistake: Regina writes comments about herself in the Burn Book, at the top of the page in red marker. Later, when Mr Duvall has the book, he opens it saying "Why would Regina refer to herself..." and he then looks at the page and reads "As a Fugly Slut?" However, watch as Mr Duvall opens the Burn Book - the page he has it opened at is blank at the top and there is no writing on it at all. (01:00:15 - 01:02:25)

Revealing mistake: When Ms. Norbury spills coffee all over her shirt, you can see the hand that is to the left is pulling her shirt up with her sweater and rapidly lets go.

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Mrs George is taking pictures of the girls for the Christmas concert you can see that the camera is turned off.

Ian Mugford

Revealing mistake: When Aaron and Cady first speak and you can only see the back of Cady, you can tell it's not Lindsey Lohan because it is a messy, red wig and again after Aaron asks her for a pencil, you can still tell it's not Lindsey Lohan.

Question: Why did the coach act so paranoid about safe sex if he was actually sleeping with a student?

Answer: Precisely because he was sleeping with a student. Getting her pregnant would bring their affair out into the open and create a scandal for the whole nation to know what he was up to. Therefore safe sex was really important to him.

The_Iceman

True, but since he was spending time with her, he could make sure that birth control was being used (i.e. him using a condom). I think he was trying to appear "uptight" about sex, so he could be the least likely suspect.

Answer: He wanted to appear to be strict and "uptight" about sex, so people would be less likely to believe any rumors about him.
