Other mistake: When Casady crushes Shriek's cell, they both have their hands on the glass wall that gets shattered, nothing protects them, and yet she has her hands all over him to passionately make out - the shattered glass is like it never existed. (00:52:30)

Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021)
Continuity mistake: Casady goes "Ta-dah!" on Dr. Pazzo suddenly appearing inside Frances' containment zone. He lowers his arms, which are still raised in the reverse shot. (00:51:25)

Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 4 - S1-E4
Plot hole: The plot involves mother and daughter having a matching tattoo on their butt. This episode tells us that they had the matching tattoo since Ran was literally a child since her father himself did it. It's easy to understand that since kids, you know, grow and all, a dragon on the buttock of a 6 years-old would be quite different when they are all grown up. And it's no small tattoo and it needs to be accurate because it's a map.

Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 3 - S1-E3
Plot hole: The surprise reveal of the killer doesn't make any sense, because Kindaichi gathered everyone involved in the case, and the killer very much is; they are absent for no reason, so the denouement shouldn't have even started and the audience would have to be napping not to notice.

Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 3 - S1-E3
Stupidity: The plan of the murderer involved tying a wire between two different building. To do that, they needed access to the victim's apartment, and to set the trick in advance. The problem is that they tied the wire to a pillar in the middle of the apartment, below eye-level and well in advance; since they spent basically the whole afternoon with Kindaichi (and they met him by chance) the timing of the plan wouldn't work. He'd have literally walked into the trap just coming back home.

Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 3 - S1-E3
Other mistake: Saki was filming the table from his seat, and he couldn't have got close-ups of the soup bowls from the angle proposed. (00:04:45)
25th Dec 2021
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Ivy's grip on the glass shard changes between shots; at first the thumb is not visible, then the hand is positioned differently. (00:19:55)
25th Dec 2021
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Kindaichi and Saki's position keeps changing between shots when they discover the fake suicide victim at the top of the stairs. (00:19:50)
25th Dec 2021
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Other mistake: When Saki shows the picture of Ran's butt, the photo is taken from the right of the girl. In the scene during the previous episode, Saki was standing on Hajime's left, and he could never take that shot from that angle.

Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Other mistake: Miyuki calls Kindaichi at 9:48 AM. Hearing the pink dolphin hint, they run to the Kowloon Palace statue. When at that location Saki shows him the picture, the cell phone says it's 15:24. Too much time elapsed between the two moments. (00:17:00)
25th Dec 2021
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 2 - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Hen Ivy calls the actual Ran in disguise "Ran-san", Saki is pointing the camera at her in one shot, and his arm is all the way down his side in the next. (00:09:25)
25th Dec 2021
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 1 - S1-E1
Plot hole: The plot of the four-parter is complete nonsense even for a kid show. It is tied together by unbelievable pure coincidences; Miyuki is the perfect doppelganger of a missing model, Kindaichi randomly bumps into a high school mate who just happened to be in HK as well (!), and they both equally randomly (so they think) bump into the model who was just chilling on a park bench (so much for disappearing!), he befriends the son of the victim from 20 years before.
25th Dec 2021
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
The Hong Kong Kowloon Treasure Murder Case File 1 - S1-E1
Other mistake: Throughout the episode, certain street signs ("Job&Piece", "Ocean Guest House") are used multiple times in different points of Hong Kong (for instance the establishing shot of the city, behind Kindaichi and his friends when they meet, during the bike chase).

Godmothered (2020)
Continuity mistake: Jane Curtin is teaching to a rather seasoned class. One of those old hags says sarcastically "Because we really never do anything." As she says it, notice Eleanor turning towards her momentarily. She then turns completely, facing the opposite way, but at the cut she is repeating the turn from the beginning. Moreover, Moira's mouth closes after she says "Enough!" but the following shot on Curtin shows her still jaw-dropped. (00:04:05)

Snowglobe (2007)
Continuity mistake: Anxious to gift-wrap more pork, Angela scuttles by her uncle and tries to take over. He replies "Brown paper and tape", and she desists. This short exchange consists of three cuts where Christina Milian's hand goes up, is down but off the counter, and then down on the counter. (00:00:45)

I'll Be Home for Christmas (1998)
Continuity mistake: Jake is opening Ian's locker, with Ian inside. He asks the third number of the combination; depending on the shot, he's holding the lock with both hands, or he has one hand on the door itself. (00:03:10)
24th Dec 2021
Diabolik (2021)
Plot hole: Diabolik blinks in Morse code to his accomplice the location of one of his hidden stashes. He says it's in 'the third brick to the left' and the street name, but no address or other reference. She (who previously knew nothing about the location) finds it immediately. It's worth noting that the movie is a faithful adaptation of a couple issues of the comic, but this bit of subplot is a fresh addition and the original hiding spot in the 1963 issue was a plausible one (cave behind a specific waterfall).
24th Dec 2021
Home Sweet Home Alone (2021)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, the real estate agent greets the McKenzies, lovers of all things open. The potential clients hold the papers in a completely different way at the cut ("I was just telling the Breckins that..." etc). (00:01:15)
24th Dec 2021
Black Nativity (2013)
Continuity mistake: First evening at the Grandparents' house in Harlem. Langston says that it's like a museum of "black people." Forest Whitaker has both hands on the book, but before the cut they are distant, after the cut they are joined. (00:22:00)
24th Dec 2021
Black Nativity (2013)
Continuity mistake: Having just reached New York, Langston tries to reach by public phone Reverend Cornell Cobbs. The receiver is in his right hand, until there's a cut to the reverse angle and the phone switches to his left hand. (00:12:30)
