Mr. Bean (1989)

Merry Christmas Mr. Bean - S1-E10

Corrected entry: Mr Bean gives the collection tin back to the salvation army band leader when it is full - there is a girl with long ginger hair standing to the left behind Mr Bean wearing a black coat. The band leader asks Mr Bean to hold the baton while he puts the collection tin in his car - the ginger haired girl is now wearing a red coat and holding a bouquet of flowers, but when the band leader returns, the girl is back to wearing the black coat and her flowers have disappeared.

Correction: Please rewatch the scene, because they are not the same person. During this scene we see three young women with ginger-blonde hair. The first has very long hair and she's wearing a black coat, standing behind the band leader in front of the fruit stand. The second has hair just past her shoulders and she's also wearing a black coat, holding a basket of flowers, but she's standing behind the band, opposite the band leader. The third has short hair, wearing a short red coat, holding flowers, also standing near the fruit stand. This is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video.

Super Grover ★

Correction: The girl is wearing a black coat throughout all the scenes.

Even if the coat remains the same, the part about flowers remains.

The mistake is valid and I think the corrector is looking at the wrong girl. Although it's hard to tell if the girl in red is the same as the girl in black, but either way the girl in the mistake either disappears and reappears or does go from red to black.

The King of Queens (1998)

Fixer Upper - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: After Spence suffers from his allergic reaction to peanuts he's seen lying on the couch. Doug then says something to the effect of having to scrape Spence's lunch off the fence, indicating that he threw up. But the allergic reaction took place before they got to the lunch.

Suggested correction: Spence could have easily eaten something hours before the BBQ and simply brought that back up. Doug says "lunch" as a polite way of saying vomit.

The Meat Puzzle - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: When Tony is moving the furniture, his grip on the items is constantly changing instantly. (00:17:50)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: We can see him, on camera, constantly changing his grip because it's heavy and he's trying to hold it.

Yes he changes his grip, but, in some instant cuts, such as the ones shown above, his grip changes instantly.

Star Trek (1966)

Tomorrow is Yesterday - S1-E20

Corrected entry: When the tractor beam crushes the fighter jet, Spock asks captain Kirk, "do you want me to turn off the tractor beam?" Why would Spock ask a stupid question like this?

Correction: Because he needs approval from the captain.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)

Corrected entry: At the beginning when you see the groundskeeper looking out the window, in one shot for a fraction of a second the light in the manor's upper window is not on, but in the other shots it was. (00:01:35)

Joshua Popchoke

Correction: The light is being switched on. We never see the light on then off.

South Park (1997)

Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery - S3-E10

Character mistake: Cartman tells his mother that there are only 72 shopping days left until Christmas. Christmas is 55 days after Halloween.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: And Cartman is a kid who gets things wrong regularly.

Consider how selfish Cartman is. I think he would make sure of the exact number of days that his mother has left to buy him Christmas presents.

Yes but in the Cow Days episode, he admits he sucks at maths.

Saw III (2006)

Corrected entry: When John and Amanda are preparing the game for Gordon and Adam, John lies on the floor and Amanda walks out, switching the light off, but the light is on when Gordon and Adam wake up in Saw.

Correction: No, there is emergency lighting that barely illuminates what is in front of Adam and Lawrence. Lawrence then finds a light switch about 2 minutes in.

NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service (2003)

Iceman - S4-E18

Character mistake: In the scene, where Jeanne tells Tony that he never said he loves her, besides after sexual activities. This is not true. In episode 15 "Friends and lovers" Tony ends a phone call saying "I love you."

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: She is referring to the incident at the top of the climbing wall when he didn't tell her he loved her.

Common mistakes

Corrected entry: Despite being a lawyer, architect or whatever, the male character will have a garage filled with high end, spotlessly clean tools.

Correction: Several issues with this entry being a mistake: - first, how often do we actually see this? If this has happened in some shows, perhaps it would be better expressed as a mistake in those specific shows, instead of 'common'. - second, why a male character? Can't female characters have tools in a garage? - third, the writers may have given the character shiny tools for a reason: the character is wealthy but still handy; they feel they needed to buy the tools to project an image even if they don't use them; they like buying shiny toys (the character does the same with the kitchen or home cinema); somebody else in the family uses them; the character has a hobby or a long term DIY project, etc.

To me, it's a mistake because it almost always feels out of place for the character, their life, lifestyle etc.

Again, do you have an example?

Correction: How is that a mistake?

A garage full of top of the range, specific, expensive and spotlessly clean tools? How many lawyers, office executives etc do you know who perform sophisticated diy projects on a regular basis to need a whole garage full of tools like that?

My brother is a CFO and he built a treehouse for his kids by himself. He has a garage full of nice tools which are kept clean. Clean tools are long lasting tools.

Can you give an example?

Peter Rabbit (2018)

Corrected entry: The Land Rover bonnet is opened by Peter because his ears were stuck under it, but is closed seconds after. (00:35:25)

Correction: This is correct that the bonnet does close. However, you will notice that when Tom stops the land rover it is on a country lane. When we see it next it's turning on to a main road. Indicating some time has passed. Enough to close the bonnet again.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie (1995)

Continuity mistake: After the Power Rangers receive the "Great power" from the temple they morph into their ranger forms and the blue ranger is missing, instead there are two black rangers. (01:04:00)

Suggested correction: This is due to the lighting. The blue looks black.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)

Character mistake: In her speech outside the bank, Mary Lou Barebone mentions "the wireless" as one of the wonders of modern technology, which is the British term. A New Yorker in 1926 would more likely use the Americanism "radio."

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Not necessarily they could have heard someone say the wireless.

Possibly, but is it probable? Big difference between hearing someone else use it and using it oneself. Just as an example, if I ever were to travel to Britain, it would be an instinctive habit to use words like "elevator" instead of "lift", or "apartment" instead of "flat", simply because to me, as an American, that's what they're called.

Guitar Hero Smash Hits (2009)

Continuity mistake: "Rock and Roll All Nite" by Kiss is missing the guitar solo from Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: When Kiss recorded the song and released it for the first time, there was no solo to the song. Listen to the version from Dressed to Kill (1975).

16th Apr 2009

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

Corrected entry: It says "Anarchy in the U.K" was made in 2007, yet it was really made in 1976. If it was because they re-recorded it, then it would say "Talk Dirty To Me" was 2007 because Bret Michels re-recorded that too - either way there's an inconsistency.

Correction: The original master track for Anarchy in the UK was lost.This is why it was re-recorded. Talk Dirty to Me's original master track wasn't lost. It was just re-recorded for the game, hence it not saying 2007.

The Fugitive (1963)

Home Is the Hunted - S1-E15

Corrected entry: Kimble goes home to Stafford, Indiana. But a sign visible when he gets off the bus says he's in Madison, Wisconsin.

Correction: The final destination sign on the bus reads Madison, but the road signage reads correctly. The bus reads Madison, but that wouldn't necessarily correspond to the stop he gets off.

Correct. A bus will display the final destination. Not the current stop.

Final Destination (2000)

Other mistake: When the plane takes off in Alex's vision, the plane begins to go into a nosedive, and the entire left fuselage is blown apart, sucking many people out of the plane. The plane then explodes completely, but in reality, the plane just takes off, and explodes almost instantly afterwards. No struggling with the plane is shown in reality, nor is the plane going into a nosedive. This is also proven in FD5, which is a prequel. The jet engine explodes, leaving a flaming tail, and the plane spinning out of control. The plane just simply "explodes" without any signs of struggle.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: According to the news report, "Officials believe deterioration of silicon insulation on an electrical connector to the scavenger pump may have leaked combustible fluids. A spark in the fuel switch in the fuselage may have ignited the fuel line and proceeded to the fuel pump which would have set off the catastrophic explosion." This spark, in the premonition, happened while they were already in the air, which is why the damage occured how it did. However, in reality, Alex has his panic, and they're escorted off. So instead of already being up on the air, the spark happens as soon as the plane takes off instead. Further, when you compare the timeline of the explosion in the premonition and the explosion in real life, roughly the same amount of time has passed, placing the explosion at the same moment it should have been to start with.

Suggested correction: Death will find any way to make sure that someone dies when they're supposed to, so regardless of how it happens, how natural is it when an invisible force is causing the explosion? Plus, just because Alex had a vision of it does not mean that the real-life occurrence will happen in the same way. It doesn't really matter how the plane exploded; all that matters is that it did.

It's shown throughout the series that the visions are how the deaths take place. So the mistake is valid.

14th Jul 2018

Fast Five (2011)

Corrected entry: Roman says to Tej "We gotta go, let's do this." Then the second car pulls up with two girls in it. So now there are three girls and two guys for a total of five people. The cars only seat two people, which means only four people can go, and one would be left behind. (01:58:15)

Correction: This would be a mistake in a movie about law abiding, careful drivers. These guys would have no problems squeezing two women into one seat of a sports car.

Exactly, not a problem for the guys. Especially Roman.

Bones (2005)

The Doom in the Boom - S11-E10

Plot hole: Dr. Vizeri leaves the Jeffersonian months prior to this episode (confirmed in the episode) however, after turning up unannounced he still has his work jacket. It is unlikely his jacket would still be there. (00:20:05)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: It is not unreasonable to assume it was simply put into storage rather than being thrown away. It was perfectly usable and could have been used by another member of staff if theirs was unavailable.

I've forgotten the exact circumstances of Dr. Vizeri's departure, but the Jeffersonian probably would not have a policy that required personalized work clothing to be returned. Dr. Vizeri indicates in the episode that it had been his strong desire to return ever since his departure, so it is likely that he would have retained the garment for practical, or at least sentimental reasons.

Would seem unlikely given that they have their names on.

The King of Queens (1998)

Oxy Moron - S4-E10

Corrected entry: Spence asks Doug to arrange a meeting between him and Danny about possibly renting a place together. However, in the previous few episodes it is established that they are all friends already. (00:03:20)

Correction: Spencer and Danny actually went to high school together, according to the reunion episode where Spencer claims to have slept with the Spanish teacher. A formal introduction initiated by Doug over an apartment rental would've been unnecessary by that time.

Precisely.

Correction: People are often more formal when dealing with money, business, renting, etc. Spence might not have felt comfortable approaching Danny directly. Perhaps he felt that he and Danny were not as close as the rest of the guys. Spence seems to have met Danny through Doug. It would not be strange for him to present the idea to Doug first.

12th May 2017

Saw III (2006)

Revealing mistake: When Kerry is in the Angel trap there is a close up of her about to put her hand in the acid for the first time before it changes to a spinning shot. In the close up, watch very closely and you will see her fingertips enter the acid but she doesn't get burned or scream in pain. (00:15:40)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: You don't always feel the pain straight way when under immense physical stress.

What about not being burned? That's still a mistake.
