Continuity mistake: Finch just started working for the company. We see at 9 sharp the secretaries, who all are wearing high-heeled shoes curiously of the same beige color, change them slipping in more comfortable ballerinas of a variety of different colors. The coffee break is announced a couple minutes later, and all of them storm the food cart wearing again their beige high heels; the colourful flat shoes are nowhere in sight. (00:11:25 - 00:12:50)

Continuity mistake: During the musical number "A secretary is not a toy", when the line "employed to do a gavotte / or you-know-what " the secretary in purple (third one in the left wing) turns her head facing straight ahead, and she repeats the gesture in the next shot. (00:35:30)

Continuity mistake: Ponty gives the flower to the boss' secretary saying it cries out to be given to her. In the background there's another secretary with a light blue dress, and a man in a suit that walks in the corridor. Cut, and the secretary changed position and the man vanished. (00:19:20)

Scream (1996)

Continuity mistake: When Billy jumps on Sidney in the corridor making his comeback, a bag of potato chips that was lying against the bench's armrest goes from vertical to horizontal. It wouldn't be surprising that a small and possibly mostly empty bag would be toppled over considering the movement that just occurred, however when Sidney headshots Zombie Billy the bag is back being vertical.

Scream (1996)

Continuity mistake: Stu is slumping against the desk and says he's dying. In the closer angles you can see his left fingers are coated in blood, but in wider angles (for instance when Billy grabs the receiver off him and yells "I'm gonna rip you up, you b**ch"), the fingers are cleaner. (01:38:40)

Scream (1996)

Continuity mistake: Stu puts the voice box and the cellular phone inside the breast pocket of Sidney's father; the order is clear and visible even after Stu pushes the poor man to the ground; the white box is in front of the black phone.
