Revealing mistake: When they are trying to escape the building, he throws what looks like a bollard at the glass door. The door shatters before the bollard hits it. (00:53:45)

Wedlock (1991)
Continuity mistake: The bus Frank has hijacked is bus 104, seen as it crashes through the obstacle. But when his bus pulls up behind the tour bus, this bus is also numbered 104. Then they pull up and stop behind 103. (00:55:05)

Wedlock (1991)
Other mistake: The bus Frank is in crashes through a wall of items, at speed, but no visible damage is done to the front of the bus when we see it later. (00:55:05 - 00:55:40)

Star Trek (1966)
Tomorrow is Yesterday - S1-E20
Character mistake: When first considering the impact of Captain Christopher's removal from this time, Spock makes a mistake in his dialogue. He says "They show no record of any irrelevent contribution..." when it should be "relevent..." (00:13:50)

The Blue Lagoon (1980)
Visible crew/equipment: When Em is sheltering from the rain after being evicted from the hut, as the wall of fronds falls, the string used to pull it over is visible to the right of the screen. (00:55:20)

Edward the King (1975)
Continuity mistake: When the princess moves between rooms, the door in the first room is left well open, but when the shot changes to the second room, the first door is almost closed. (00:05:40)
19th Apr 2004
A Mighty Wind (2003)
Continuity mistake: When Mickey is introducing the song, Mitch is preparing to play. His hand is sometimes making the opening chord, and sometimes it's by his side. They must have used different takes for this scene and patched them together. (01:10:55)

Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: They are sitting with their gas masks on waiting for the gas to vent. Look at the reading on the "gas analyser" the needle is way in the red zone. Then a few seconds later it reels back to under the red and the green light comes on. Kind of a sudden fall. (00:43:00)
5th Nov 2003
Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: We see the "gas analyser", and there are three red lights (must be a bad sign) but the needle is on the far left of the dial, far from the red zone. (Someone must have forgotten to switch it on...) (00:42:00)
5th Nov 2003
Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: As we see the sub going down, the tech says "descending at 5 ft per second", and another one says "no forward motion". Cut to the sub going forward and down at considerably more than 5 ft per sec and apparently making a rumbling noise while doing it . (00:32:00)

Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: Rick is using a rebreather, yet seems to be exhaling bubbles, looks more like SCUBA. (01:11:00)
5th Nov 2003
Sub Down (1997)
Factual error: The heroine is trying to get to come on the trip in the minisub. She is asked "Name three under-ice amphopods" The word should be "amphipods", and her answer "Gamamarus" should be "Gammarus". (00:25:30)
5th Nov 2003
Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: When the sub resurfaces, we see the sail and part of the hull protruding above the ice. Where is the gash in the ice made by this sub coming through at considerable speed? How did the wings on the sail make it through with such minor damage (the port one just looks a bit bent)?
5th Nov 2003
Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: At the end of the film, we see a whale nearby in a patch of open water (which would have been better to surface in after all), but when the shot pulls back there is no sign of any open water nearby.
5th Nov 2003
Sub Down (1997)
Continuity mistake: After the sub has surfaced, we cut to the happy couple on the sail suddenly, where we have been having eye contact and salutes between Rick and the XO emerging from the aft hatch, they can now no longer see the hatch because the after part of the sail is in the way.

Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1969)
Trivia: Right at the very end, when the group of people is milling around staring at each other, watch for Barbara Feldon, from Get Smart.
