Other mistake: During the final battle in which the Shoveler is fighting the Disco Boys, when Tony C first appears, if you look in the bottom-left corner of the screen you can see a Disco Boy in a green hat sitting unconscious against the wall. However, Shoveler never fought this man.
Mystery Men (1999)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Kinka Usher
Starring: Ben Stiller, William H. Macy, Geoffrey Rush, Hank Azaria, Janeane Garofalo
Continuity mistake: When the squad is making new costumes with the Sphinx and the Shoveller is talking to someone, the tape measure keeps changing places. First it's outside his collar, then it's inside it.
The Shoveller: God's given me a gift. I shovel well. I shovel very well.
Trivia: At the end when the reporter asks for the name of the group, Kel Mitchell says the Super Dudes. This was one of the skits he used to make many appearances in on a show called All That on Nickelodeon.
Question: Just interested, but when the Mystery Men are rescuing Captain Amazing, how did Amazing know the sequence for the release mechanism and where it was if he was unconscious when he was put there?
Chosen answer: In a previous scene with Casanova, Capt. Amazing and he have done this (capture & escape) a lot! So much so that Capt. Amazing would have been in that situation before enough times to already know the sequence code from previous times being captured (and escaping).
