Mission: Impossible 2 (2000)
Revealing mistake: When the two cars chase Ethan, note the skid marks further up on the road from previous takes. A second later, the jeep makes a turn on that very same spot.

Mission: Impossible 2 (2000)
Visible crew/equipment: When the cars flip over as they blow up, you will see a circular object underneath the vehicles, about the size of a tyre. This is the device that "lifts" the vehicle for it to flip on one side, timed with the appropriate explosion.

Sheena (1984)
Revealing mistake: When Sheena gallops towards the prince's car, she is replaced by an obvious stunt double who not only does not resemble her but is a brunette, as opposed to blonde Sheena.
12th Mar 2018
Beetlejuice (1988)
Revealing mistake: At the end, as Beetlejuice's head shrinks, the collar has a line around it, showing where the two images were superimposed.
31st Aug 2006
Twins (1988)
Continuity mistake: Arnie enters the parking lot driving on two wheels crying "Woooa." The close shots show him with one hand on the wheel and the other outside on the window; but on the wide shots, with the stunt, both hands are inside and his mouth closed but still the cry is heard. This mistake goes on every time angle changes.
Factual error: During the motorcycle chase seen (which was filmed in New Haven, CT) one can see modern yellow traffic lights covered in burlap in a few of the scenes.
Factual error: In the church, you can see modern brass panic bars on the doors.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
Continuity mistake: Inside the plane, Indy looks at his bleeding wound. Note how shiny and wet it is, as opposed to an instant shot later when it looks dry.

Factual error: When Jones and Shaw rans out of the Hotel back alley in Tanger, there's a modern Scooter moped with 5-spoke plastic wheels.

Sheena (1984)
Continuity mistake: When the rhino crashes against the car, he dents its side with its horn and makes a hole. He walks back and rams again at the car, though now there's suddenly a second hole on the side.

Sheena (1984)
Continuity mistake: Sheena goes barefoot most of the movie but near the end when she's riding a zebra she's wearing a pair of sandals which disappear a few minutes later.
12th Feb 2024
Sheena (1984)
Revealing mistake: When the prince's jeep crashes, he is replaced by a stiff dummy with a black bald head (or maybe a black helmet).
12th Feb 2024
Sheena (1984)
Revealing mistake: Sheena's arrow supposedly breaks the windshield and gets stuck on the driver's chest, but when the glass shatters, there's no arrow anywhere, neither breaking the glass nor stuck to his chest. It magically appears several shots later.
12th Feb 2024
Sheena (1984)
Continuity mistake: When the prince drives the jeep, his hair is short, as opposed to the POV shot where he has a really big afro.
27th Dec 2021
