Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Plot hole: The Ghostbusters go underground to search for the slime using a map. Even excusing their initial dumb decision to try to dig a hole in the middle of Manhattan when they could have taken that route to begin with, there's no excuse why after their acquittal they never went looking for that river of slime until Vigo burns their lab; they spent weeks studying small samples of the thing but never tried to reach again the source of the infestation to monitor it, which is absurd. (01:00:00)

Suggested correction: The Ghostbusters know from Ray's initial journey down the hole that the river of slime is in the old pneumatic transit system. They are busy re-opening their business and will eventually go back to the river, but that mission gained more urgency once they linked the river to Vigo. Also, they know that the river has been there for years if not decades, and therefore realise that returning to explore it can wait a few weeks.

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: When the three guys who aren't Bill Murray and so don't mind wearing overalls and carrying backpacks pull over as Peter fails to hail a cab, the car's license plate says "ECTO 2", but in the rest of the movie the plate is "ECTO 1A" (apparently because the former would have conflicted with the cartoon, where ECTO 2 was the mini-helicopter).

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: The position of the socks (or whatever they are) sticking out of the suitcase when Peter presents the suitcase to Dana changes between shots. The one on top stick more in the second shot. (00:54:00)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: When Peter talks to Dana and shows her the suitcase with her stuff (they sure seem to come and go as it pleases them from her home), Sigourney Weaver is holding the towel in a different way depending on the camera angle. (00:53:40)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: When the Ghostbusters with their proton packs walk away from the car and get to the museum the morning after the bathtub incident, the people in front of the museum and on the stairs change at the cut. (00:50:25)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: Peter leaps on his own bed after telling Dana that she can treat his house as her own. Between shots, the spare clothes tucked under the covers and those lying on the box by the window change entirely. (00:48:45)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Audio problem: Dana shows up at Peter's door with poor little Oscar desperately crying after the bathtub misadventures. Is he really crying though? Sigourney Weaver does her best to hold the baby close to her and away from the camera, that shoots the scene cutting off above the mouth level. His body language is composed though, and for one moment (when Dana says "this pink goo everywhere" his mouth pops in frame and it is closed. (00:46:20)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: When Dana tells Peter that she thinks the painting is watching her, Peter turns towards Vigo with the whole body. In the close-up, he's glancing at the painting sideways facing Sigourney Weaver. (00:44:25)

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Continuity mistake: Peter drops by the museum to see Dana. As he enters room 304, a worker there is wheeling away a big crate. Cut, and the crate spun 90° (just check the stickers and the "Keep dry" writing, first on the right side, then on the side facing the worker). (00:42:40)

Other mistake: The first shot of the movie is an ominous zoom-out from Richard Parker's watch, a top quality Swiss watch...although, it shows that it's 5:42, and the timestamp in the security cameras is 21:05. (00:00:55 - 00:01:25)

World Heroes 2 Jet

Character mistake: After the tournament phase is over you have to face as opponent Captain Kidd; his opening line is "I can't believe you let me out! No fair." Obviously he means "left me out", of the tournament, not "let."

Other mistake: The arcade version mentions in the demo "How to play" reel "Various ways of prssing buttons", forgetting an "E."

Hâto ni hi wo tsukete - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Honey Cherry is knocked off the air by impeccable timing and Van's amazing thigh strength, we can see that the decor of the extravagant piston-like clock does not match the beginning of the episode's. (00:05:30 - 00:11:10)

Hâto ni hi wo tsukete - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Muscat and Honey made their entrance aboard of their Love Deluxe. She points her finger at Van saying he's gonna be their prisoner of love. Notice the hand on her hip; she is leaning with the palm, but when the shot changes, she's got her hand in a fist and is leaning with her knuckles. (00:06:25)
