Happy Death Day 2U

Continuity mistake: When everyone is leaving the basketball game near the beginning, watch the crowds around the main characters as they walk down the hallway. Sometimes the extras aren't consistent from show to shot. Ex. At one point a black couple brushes past Ryan - the man is on his right and the woman is on his left. When the shot cuts to the opposite angle, suddenly the man is to Ryan's left and the woman is totally missing. This happens a few times throughout the scene.

Continuity mistake: When Tree wakes up from committing suicide with the drain cleaner, she starts pouring a water bottle into her mouth. In the wide shot, her mouth is wide open, her tongue is all the way in her mouth, and there's a steady stream of water pouring off her chin. But then it punches into a closeup, and her mouth is instantly halfway closed, her tongue is pushed forward, and the stream of water has suddenly slowed to a drip. Obviously a few seconds was cut for pacing, but still a mistake.

Continuity mistake: Throughout the final confrontation with Gregory, Tree has a bracelet on her left wrist. However, in the two closeup shots of her pressing the button on the magnetic medical equipment with her left hand, the bracelet disappears. (Looks like they forgot to have her wear it when they shot the closeup).

Trivia: Spoilers. In the end, Dr. Butler and his wife Stephanie are revealed to be the killers. They were actually the killers in the original script for the first film, but the ending was changed several times until the final version seen in theaters with Lori being the killer. The original idea was recycled into this film, since the dimension-hopping angle of the story allowed the presence of a new version of the killer.

Trivia: The wood-chipper Tree leaps into is labeled "Biff's Tree Removal." This is a reference to the "Back to the Future" film series, which features a prominent character named Biff. The "Back to the Future" movies were one of the inspirations for the film.

Trivia: Just a funny bit of censorship to look for. In the film, Tree wears a shirt that says "FML" in one scene. For those who don't know, this is an abbreviation for the phrase "F**k my life," which is a phrase commonly used to express frustration when something bad happens. But because of its profane connotations, the shirt was digitally altered in trailers to instead say "OMG," which means the much less naughty "Oh my god."
