Mystery Men

Factual error: Tony the disco bandit is dancing just after Casanova is released. He looks at the record player and sleeve. The record is a relatively modern vinyl stereo LP at a speed of 33 RPM. But the record player is a really antique machine for bakelite mono records that play at 78 RPM. Even if it could play the record, the sound would have been completely wrong.

Continuity mistake: When the Mystery Men smash their "Magnetic" Herkimer bus through Casanova's Castle's main gate you can see a number of the lights mounted to the front of the bus are smashed, however, in the next couple of front on shots, you can see that all lights are working and intact.
