The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6

Stupidity: You gotta be really not much attentive if you Miss a device the size of a large cell phone in your pants, beeping like crazy. Conveniently though, it appears to be beeping only when Mando leaves.

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Mando fights Burg, Burg drags his head across the control panel then tosses him to the ground, then picks him up. It looks like one fluid series of actions, but Mando is on the ground in different parts of the room each time. (00:29:20)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6

Other mistake: Everyone Mando fought with at the ship turns up alive at the end of the episode, but it's shown in the fight with the devil dude that the doors closed all the way and there's no room between the two sets of doors. There's no space for his head not to be popped like a melon. (00:30:00)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6

Character mistake: Bill Burke's chest holsters are completely not practical and unfit for the kind of guns he's carrying. Just look at the scene when he's leaning towards the Child to grab him, and watch how awkwardly his arm bends. (00:12:30)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 4: Sanctuary - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Mando tells the widow that he was not much older than the kids playing outside the last time he removed the helmet, her hair is combed over the wrong shoulder, left instead of right like in the rest of the scene. (00:17:00)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Other mistake: The laser cannon punches decent sized holes into the columns and even cuts through the thick metal of the door (and look with what ease), but it is shown hitting the droid at least 4 times never managing to do any visible damage to it. When at the end of the battle they talk about the 'wound', it's not in one of those spots. (00:33:30)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When IG-11 shoots the first batch of criminals, the natural light changes between shots. Look at the aerial view immediately before Mando's arrival; the robot is casting a distinct shadow at 7 o'clock and the corpses to the right are next to the shadow of the building. All different from the shot that follows. (00:29:30)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Mando meets his contact at the guild to get paid. Watch as he gets seated; on the table, there's a pile of little tiles. And then, his guy puts down on the table...that same pile of colourful Imperial credits. The position of the beeping locating devices changes too. (00:11:05)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: "The blue guy" puts his credits down on the table hoping to buy his freedom from the hunters. Next time the Mythrol and his captors are in frame, gone are the credits from the table; actually you can see them again when the mug is knocked off the table, but in that case, they were in the wrong spot, for the mug to be blocking them from view.

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

Other mistake: It is a comic book world and all that, but the plot device used here references the real world "particle beam technology" from the Strategic Defense Initiative "Star Wars" program. If the US had, in 1984 even, the capacity to generate enough particles and use them that way, it's hardly possible that the rest of the DCU could have evolved to be like our normal world as shown in the following movies; the quantity of energy alone to irradiate the whole planet at once is enormous. This technology also makes computers receive a TV signal, evidently, since we see normal desk computers and monitors broadcast his speech. Let's not forget that this apparatus was built, in a working state and ready to be used even before any crazy magic was involved. (01:46:00)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

Other mistake: In the final credits, the song "Cars (Music Video) " has its iconic singer Gary Numan misspelled as "Gary Newman." Funnily enough, exactly facing this mistake (left column of the same frame) there's also the song "M.E." written by Numan, and his last name there is spelled appropriately. (02:30:10)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

Other mistake: The irritable Irish guy wishes the diner's owner to drop dead as Max commences his speech. A long battle after, paramedics are hilariously still there trying to revive her. Moreover, she wished for the Irish like him to be deported, but he's still there. (02:03:30 - 02:19:30)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

Other mistake: Max broadcasts his speech in English, but everyone in the world understands him just fine. The movie never established that Max can be understood by anyone at the same time, and we hear the broadcast in English (if the movie wanted to convey that to other people he sounds in his own language, they would have showed that). (02:02:40)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

Stupidity: Max is shown fulfilling the various wishes that people express to him, and never turn down any; it would not fit what he became anyway, which is a wishing stone. If people touch him, he has to comply. The wishes he can grant have seemingly no limit, and yet, in this predicament it takes a humongous level of suspension of disbelief to assume that in a climate of global war and chaos, NOBODY wishes for things to go better in any way and the nuclear war to be stopped. There are even in some street scenes "Ban nukes" signs; surely some of those guys must have wished for the madness to stop.

Suggested correction: The Dreamstone was also created by the Duke of Deception to bring chaos into the world. It brought out people's selfish desires. When Max Lord became the Dreamstone, he was able to continue to manipulate people in wishing what they truly desired, wishing for more than than had. In the comics, Max Lord had the ability to telepathically alter people's minds after he became a metahuman, so it seems the film incorporated this power as well. It/He made people wish for selfish things. That was the purpose of Wonder Woman's monologue, to tell the people to become less selfish, so give up their wants, to be the hero to save the world by giving up their wish (and wish for a better world would have cost too much, so that wouldn't be an option).

Bishop73

"Cost too much" is not a rule established in the movie, since desires like the deportation of the Irish, "Wish I never met you" "want all the money in the world" someone says in background have astonishingly powerful ramifications. LIkewise why would it be an implication that he is the one who makes them wish only selfish things? The movie wants to say that there are no 'good' wishes when you take shortcuts to make them happen (or at least it tries to referencing the Monkey paw) but to do so shows only wishes that are rotten to begin with.

Sammo

Suggested correction: With so many people wishing at the same time, it's logical a lot of people are wishing for the opposite. I'm sure the stone's power has some way of dealing with conflicting wishes. For example, someone could wish for the world to blow up or burn, whilst others wish that everybody will be happy and healthy. So, nothing much happens that threatens human existence (the stone would be worthless if all humans are dead) as those wishes cancel eachother out. But the nuclear war happened before Max started talking to everybody, so that is happily continuing.

lionhead

Most people would have wished the nukes to disappear pretty instantly especially with the world falling into chaos and everyone panicking about it.

Sammo

And others would have wished for them to hit and kill the "heathens" or "hateful." Cancellation.

lionhead

They do not get their wishes that way. They should show the missiles disappearing, then appearing, disappearing, reappearing to portray the conflicting desires. Nobody ever wishes for a good thing in this movie tho.;).
