Pay the Ghost (2015)

Continuity mistake: Detective Jordan resents Mike's remark and angrily tosses his pen on the desk before pulling out a big binder with the cases. In this second shot you do see his pen, but when he tossed it was gone, not at all ending up where we see it now. (00:31:05)

Pay the Ghost (2015)

Pay the Ghost mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Nicholas Cage is stapling the posters with his missing child (strangely enough, all the concert posters are in terrible condition even if they advertise events that happen exactly when the movie takes place). He hears his son's voice and turns around, the wind flips the poster on his hand. When he turns back to it, the poster is gone (but he still has one to attach). (00:27:00)

Continuity mistake: The mom just said bye to the nanny, and her little guy is impatient. "Where's daddy?" he asks. There are three cuts for this simple sequence, and in each the kid is in a slightly different position, hands on/off the table and with the weapon positioned differently. (00:09:50)

Pay the Ghost (2015)

Continuity mistake: Charlie asks his dad to check the window. He gives him the "all clear" and the kid says "I love you, Dad", with the blanket up and a hand on it, on his chest. Next shot and the blanket is lower and his hand is down his side. (00:06:35)

Continuity mistake: Nicholas Cage sees his ghostly son through the window of a bus, and so he rushes after him. Right at the first left turn, the natural light couldn't be any more different in the two separate shots. (00:32:30)

Fast Game in the Mud - S1-E13

Kyaputen Tsubasa (1983)

No Easy Way - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: The finalists are announced; look at the Shimada club. Besides the bad design of their shirts with the name handwritten in western characters that clashes with the anatomy, they are in different poses at the cut. (00:13:25)
