THGhost

Show generally

Revealing mistake: Judging by the interface, the video of Jenna and Toby sleeping together is played through Windows Media Player. When this program is playing a video, the big blue "Play" icon becomes a "Pause" icon. But whenever the video of Jenna and Toby is playing, the "Play" icon is still showing. It's obviously not an actual video being played.

THGhost

A Person of Interest - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: On the video of Ian supposedly killing Alison, we see her arm fall to the ground with her "Alison" bracelet visible. But in a later scene where Emily watches Ian put his bag in the athletics room, we cut back to the video and Alison's arm suddenly has a sleeve covering up her bracelet. When we see the video again later in the series, her bracelet is visible again.

Touched by an 'A'-ngel - S2-E10

Revealing mistake: At the end of the episode, Emily receives a phone call from Dr. Sullivan which she does not answer. Look at her phone when she hangs up: Not only does she simply press the "hang up" icon when the arrow indicates she needs to slide it to the left, there is also a magnifying glass symbol at the bottom indicating that it is in fact an image file on the screen and not an actual phone call.

Spider-Man 2 (2004)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Peter and Aunt May visit Uncle Ben's grave, Peter's hair is blowing in the wind quite violently in the wide shot but is relatively still in the close up.

The Amazing Spider-Man mistake picture

Continuity mistake: In the car thief scene, the cop points his gun at Spidey and tells him not to move. Spidey puts his arms in the air with his upper arms relatively horizontal and his forearms straight up. But in the immediate shot following, his upper arms are also straight up.

THGhost

Audio problem: As Dr. Ratha says to Dr. Connors, "The clock is ticking, Dr. Connors", his lips do not match what he says and are still moving shortly after he finishes speaking.

The Avengers (2012)

The Avengers mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Just after Dr. Banner asks Nick Fury how many spectrometers the Helicarrier has access to, he takes off his jacket, rolls it up, and puts it under his arm. In the next shot, without Banner moving, the jacket is suddenly draped over his arm. (00:34:15)

The Avengers (2012)

Audio problem: When one of the computer operators resumed playing Galaga, the sound effect heard is for an enemy ship attempting to capture the player's ship, but what's shown on screen is normal gameplay.

Super 8 (2011)

Continuity mistake: When the kids break into the school and discover the footage of Dr. Woodward and the other scientists, they break a window on the classroom door. The glass is almost completely removed from the frame but once the military arrive and take the kids away, there is suddenly more glass in the frame. (01:14:50 - 01:17:25)

THGhost

Factual error: Detective Sebastian fires a total of 7 rounds at the Antigen van in the parking garage - three at the driver, two at the front-left tire, one right before the van nearly runs him over and then one after it passes him - without reloading, yet the Taurus Judge revolver he is using is designed to only hold 5 rounds in its cylinder. Later, after Sebastian has reloaded the revolver, he fires 8 rounds at Dr. Lane, again without reloading.

THGhost

Revealing mistake: Right at the end of the fight between Selene and the Uber-Lycan in the vampire coven, the Uber-Lycan throws Selene into some wooden panels, knocking her unconscious. As she travels through the air you can tell that she is suspended by wires; she travels far too slowly towards the wooden panels for someone who was just thrown. (00:48:35)

THGhost

Visible crew/equipment: When Detective Sebastian is talking to Selene about his wife who was killed in the purge, watch the buildings in the background as he says "she told me she loved me, and then she let the sunlight in". The vehicle used to tow the car that they're sitting in and the camera rig are reflected in the buildings' windows. (01:00:20)

THGhost

Continuity mistake: When Selene escapes the facility at the beginning of the film and slashes some of the guards' throats with a scalpel, she leaves a ton of blood on the floor and walls, as well as a trail of blood as she slides across the floor. But moments later when we see the bodies on a security camera, all of the blood has disappeared. (00:11:55)

THGhost

Continuity mistake: When Selene gets to the parking garage, she is wearing her skin tight outfit and is only armed with her guns. But from out of nowhere, she suddenly pulls out a grenade. Her outfit has no pockets and it was not attached/hanging from her outfit.

THGhost

Continuity mistake: When Eve wakes up, her white dress has no blood on it. In the next shot, her white dress has blood on it again.

THGhost

The Cabin in the Woods mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Before Dana and Marty enter the control room and release all the monsters into the control centre, there is a thermos flask and a torch sitting next to each other on the control room's desk. But once they enter the control room, the position of the thermos flask and torch have changed without anyone touching them.

THGhost

Continuity mistake: When Lin is talking to Truman and says that they're all just letting off steam, the position of her hair on her left shoulder moves between shots.
