Bug: In Shifting Sand Land it is possible to fly while holding your hat. If you let the condor steal your hat, hit him so that he drops the hat, but do not pick it back up. Instead, use the warp by the oasis tree and warp back and forth a few times. Then, get the wing cap and use the cannon to fly to the hat. When you pick it up, you will be holding the wing cap in your hand while flying.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Bug: If you save while in the cannon room and load the game again, you will be unable to progress any further. The reason for this is that you cannot warp out or leave the room because it says Shad is still in the room with you. But he is not actually there, so it is impossible to ask him to leave, leaving you stuck in the room.

Bug: If you stand in front of a bug or a fish and press start right after swinging a bottle at it, you can put another item in the bottle's place and turn it into another bottle. When this happens, the erased item cannot be recovered, and the new bottle will retain the limitations of the original item (for example, turning the Claim Check into a bottle will still be unable to be used by Young Link.).

Bug: After getting all 120 stars and using the cannon to get to the top of the castle, if you walk around enough at the highest point you will fall through the roof and into a hidden dimension of the front wall.

16th Dec 2003
X-Men 2 (2003)
Question: Why was there adamantium in Nightcrawler's flashback? We saw a needle too, implying he was being injected. Does this fit with any comic/movie interpretation?
Chosen answer: The needle in the flashback relates to the drug that Stryker placed on the back of his neck so that he could control him. The adamantium in the flashback is most likely because the flashback relates to events at Alkali Lake.

Kif Gets Knocked Up a Notch - S5-E5
Continuity mistake: Zoidberg wasn't in the machine to begin with, yet he appeared later. When it spins you see the whole inside of the machine - he's definitely not there.
Suggested correction: They even make a comment about this, he lives there. So he was probably sleeping under the grate but still got ejected. There's parts of the floor we don't see.

23rd Nov 2003
Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! (1969)
Question: We never found out what the ham and chicken bones had to do with anything. They were ham and chicken until Scooby ate them. Afterwards, Shaggy wonders why the ghost would keep ham and chicken in the fridge. This was never answered in the episode. Why were they important?

Minority Report (2002)
22nd Aug 2003
Minority Report (2002)
Continuity mistake: When Witwer looks at the prevision with Agatha in the mirror it's not broken, but during the murder it is. The prevision was not altered until the time of the murder was altered by John's delay, so the killing was not 'a different one' until after that point, yet the borken mirror error occurs before time runs out, making it an inconsistency with prevision.
1st Aug 2003
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
Continuity mistake: When Harry stabs the diary, it is completely soaked in ink, but when Professor Dumbeldore shows it to him it is partially dry. I doubt that Harry had time to escape the chamber, try and wash off the ink, and go to Dumbeldore's office. We see that stabbing the diary renders it powerless, so it can't have soaked up all the ink.

Tomb Raider (2001)
Plot hole: If the ancient civilization wanted to stop people from ever using the power of the triangle again, why didn't they just destroy the triangle right then and there instead of splitting it in two and hiding the pieces? It would make sure that no one would ever get the power of the triangle and is easier than going to ends of the earth and creating all sorts of traps and challenges.
