Fringe (2008)

Inner Child - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: When Olivia calls Broyles to ask him to move the child, the shot of Broyles answering the phone is a recycled shot from the episode "Safe". In addition, the shot is flipped, as can be seen by the fact that Broyles' watch is on his right wrist rather than his left.

Continuity mistake: When the Decepticon meteors are heading towards the aircraft carrier, we can see several aircraft carriers. When the meteors land, only one aircraft carrier is shown, and the surrounding boats disappear.

Clockstoppers (2002)

Continuity mistake: When Zak freezes Francesca when she sprays him with water, he presses the button on the watch with his right hand. We cut to a closeup of the watch and Zak's hand is nowhere to be seen. In the next shot, his hand is back on the watch.

Speed Racer (2008)

Continuity mistake: At the end of the scene where Speed and crew are ambushed by Cruncher Block in the mountains, Speed is pointing a gun at Cruncher Block. When Spritle says "Take him away, boys", we see Speed in the background lowering his gun, but, in the next shot, the gun is raised again.

The Incredibles (2004)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Bob and Helen are arguing after the rescue, when Helen says "Tell me you haven't been listening to police scanners again?", she puts her hand on her head. In the next shot, her arm is down by her side.

Suggested correction: If you are talking about the event at 1:07:40, it is not a mistake; Po's stepdad put the apron on him. There is a suspicious woosh sound and Po's right eye (left side of the screen) opens in surprise. The apron also unfurls, as if it was just worn.

The mistake seems valid. When Po's dad see him, he raises his arms (wings) and his hands are empty. When he hugs Po, his arms in no way come close to wrapping around Po's belly. So why we can't see what Mr. Ping is doing during the hug, his position doesn't move, so there's no way he could tie the apron around Po if we assume he somehow had the apron in his pocket (even though there's no evidence for that).

I know. But the whoosh version that the filmmakers have chosen is more fun than your literal-minded version. It is an established tradition in cartoons to replace very fast actions with cartoonish materialization accompanied by a whoosh sound. Following that tradition is not a mistake, especially when the film is a work of fantasy.

FleetCommand

Continuity mistake: The birth of the Predalien in this movie is completely different than it was in the first AVP. The lights on the table are different and the Predalien bursts out differently than in the first film. (00:01:30)

Transformers (2007)

Continuity mistake: When Banachek shows Secretary Kellar the photo of Blackout from Qatar, the photo is a photo taken of the transformer in the Beagle 2 video. It's not the photo Epps took of Blackout. You can tell because Blackout has a box-shaped body and the transformer in the photo has a slender body.

Superhero Movie (2008)

Continuity mistake: In the scene when the truck crashes into Rick, we see a shot of the people reacting to this. In this shot, we see a young woman at the far right of the screen. In the next shot, she is replaced with an old man.

Brad

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Hellboy and Abe are getting drunk by Liz's bed, one shot shows the tab on HB's beer can pointing up. In the next shot, the tab is folded down.
