Continuity mistake: Singing her part of "Been A Long Day" song, Smitty is at the first "Now she's thinking..."; Rosemary is holding her folder with her arms positioned differently, and Smitty herself first has her arms crossed, then her right arm is straight and she crosses it only in the second shot, and in the next cut her arms are both down, and then again up.

Continuity mistake: At the reception, Miss Euphemia Bouc walks with Miss Van Schuyler and Bowers saying that money is the only friend a woman can rely on.

Scream 2 (1997)

Continuity mistake: Mickey says in no uncertain terms what does he think of the sorority girls from Delta Lambda. There's a reaction shot to Hallie's "Hey!" that features just Timothy Olyphant and Jerry O'Connell, and Olyphant pulled the sleeves of his oversized T-shirt up quite a bit because it is 200% baggier at his shoulders. (00:22:10)

Scream 2 (1997)

Continuity mistake: Gale is spearheading the other reporters' walk towards the press conference after she just humiliated Debbie. One of her colleagues asks her what's she doing there and if she thinks the murders are connected. To the right you can see a young redheaded photographer in both the shots when the question takes place, but in the first she's walking slowly and fixing the camera, in the second she cuts in resolutely and perfectly prepared.

Expeditions: Rome

Character mistake: During the riddle event in the Olympian sidequest, Diodoros asks "Please forgive him." One of the possible answers mentions Pigres "clearly lost to your champion." It's a typo, since Pigres lost to "our" champion, aka Bestia, our companion.
