Betterman (1999)

Voice - S1-E2

Other mistake: 'Li-Chan starts explaining Keita about the Neuronoid. The screen that briefly appears as she tells him about the original purpose of the machine is filled with gibberish letters. (00:10:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: During the board meeting, watch the moment when Ponty namedrops Dr. Kildare. Mr. Bratt is a couple inches away from him, but in the reaction shot looks like he's sitting far away from him. (01:38:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Ponty's rival asks at the board meeting "May I ask a question?" the man with the cigar is smoking it, and then just holds it in his hand next. (01:37:25)

Sammo

Shinryakusha o ute - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Hayata confronts the monster that just grew to kaiju-like size, he strikes an entirely different pose (right arm forward pointing the gun, right arm back, forward and gun again) in the different shots. (00:19:30)

Shinryakusha o ute - S1-E3

Stupidity: Arashi tells Hoshino through his radio to call the HQ, but as shown several times throughout the show, his radio is perfectly able to do that directly himself. Even in this very episode later Hayata uses the standard issue radio to let the HQ hear the alien's requests. (00:07:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the executive washroom, Finch says "Wish me luck"; Mr. Bratt wishes him luck grinning like a shark. He has his left hand in his pocket, but in the previous shot his arm was folded. (01:30:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When J.B.Biggley gives Finch 48 hours to present the campaign, the man next to Finch puts the cigar out of his mouth, and is chewing on it in the next shot. (01:16:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ponty just got from Miss Jones the information about his boss' Alma mater. He is then trying to tell Rosemary something in front of the elevator, but Smitty next to them seems to sorta hinder them. Smitty is putting a glove on, and in the next shot not only she has it on, but her arms are crossed. (00:38:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, Finch hops on the boom platform to start his day as window cleaner. His fellow co-worker on the platform is a guy with a big pompadour. A minute later Finch breaks into his song (and into the building) and his co-worker is now a different man with shorter hair. (00:03:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the chief of personnel Mr. Bratt leads Miss Hedy LaRue towards the stairs, a woman in an orange and beige dress is moving down the same stairs. In the close-up of the derrière of Maureen Arthur the aforementioned woman is coming down the stairs again and starting from one of the top steps. (00:31:35)

ENF Novels: Dress Code

Character mistake: During a sarcastic comment in the final days, Linda mentions "an action figure of Dr. Manhattan, a naked patch for the sims", with no capitalization - she meant The Sims, as in the game.

ENF Novels: Dress Code

ENF Novels: Dress Code mistake picture

Revealing mistake: Several times during the game the name of the person saying a line followed by a colon (so, the basic formatting of the script) appears in the actual line of dialogue, sometimes together with the proper name field, other times with no name field at all.

Sammo

Audio problem: During the fireworks, Poirot's line about the "nice and royal" show giving him "confidence" is dubbed over, and you can in fact see Peter Ustinov in the shot of the crowd, not saying those words. (01:37:40)

Sammo

Audio problem: When Poirot stands from his seat after telling the truth about the spider, he looks at Dr. King. Her lips move but there is no audio. (01:33:50)

Sammo

Other mistake: The spider scene is wildly different when Poirot narrates it at the dinner table (Miss Quinton immediately replies "Oh yes, spiders don't frighten me") compared to the actual scene (she said that replying to a different line). (01:12:20 - 01:33:40)

Sammo

Revealing mistake: In the close-up of the killer's revolver firing, the revolver is...clearly not firing. It's just the sound dubbed in, but there's no flash or discharge of any kind. (01:33:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: During the coronation ball, Poirot explains that the murder must have not been intimate enough with the victim to tamper with the heart tonic. As he says that, his pince-nez are on his lap, but they are in his breast pocket a moment later, and it switches position again when it gets back to the same camera angle. (01:29:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Lennox picks the wristwatch from his mother's lap showing the actual events, the natural light of the scene is entirely different between shots - the skirt is sunlit in close-up, in the shade in the other angle. (01:25:45)
