Continuity mistake: Viewing from the foot of the bed, Julia's quilt/bedspread is pulled to the edge and forms a butterfly-like shape, but the side view shows three mound-like rolls. Returning to the foot of the bed, the butterfly shape of the bedspread reappears. (00:13:12)

A Dream House (2023)

Continuity mistake: Tree foliage is inconsistent, changing several times within the first minute (Fall-Winter-Summer-Fall-Summer). Tree foliage even varies with which side of the road is being shown, such as Winter leafless trees between houses on Liam's side but Summer green leaves on Breanna's passenger side of the car (followed by Winter leafless trees when they get to the bank's parking lot). The inconsistencies persist to the end, with Fall-Winter foliage in the aerial view but Summer at street level. (00:00:20 - 00:09:27)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Matt puts a large bag of dog food onto the checkout counter. After Julie takes his money and hands him a business card, there is only a brown paper bag (containing the smaller items he buys) but no dog food bag on the counter. Matt is not moving to remove the dog food bag from the counter, and it does not seem to be in his shopping cart. (00:29:19 - 00:30:37)

KeyZOid

Deliberate mistake: Candy tells her radio listeners, "Our phone number is 201-5137." Assuming the radio station's reception extends beyond more than a small geographic area, an area code is needed for callers outside of the immediate area. On Ellie's cell phone, Mary's number shows up with an area code. (00:05:55 - 00:07:20)

Black Balsam (2022)

Deliberate mistake: Bill's back is some distance from the middle gap in the curtains, but an exterior view of him hugging Ellen captures their faces as if they are standing closer to the window and the gap in the curtains is wider. (00:32:45)

The Fearway (2023)

Continuity mistake: Near the start Sarah's shoulder restraint/seat belt is not on, but it suddenly is at one point, then off again. (00:03:19 - 00:06:02)

Second Chances (2022)

Continuity mistake: Jimi tries to put her long strands of bangs behind her right ear but they fall out. She shakes her head sideways, trying to get both sides of her bangs away from her face, then her bangs are instantly tightly behind her ears (which cannot be accomplished by shaking her head sideways). Seconds later, her bangs are back to dangling along her face and the rest of her hair is more disheveled. (00:58:45 - 00:59:10)

Second Chances (2022)

Continuity mistake: Banker Mr. Anderson picks up his glasses from the desk and holds them near his face, then picks them up a second time. (00:51:35)

Puppy Love (2023)

Factual error: Max sees a dog he wants to adopt at the "Seattle Animal Shelter" and the shelter worker tells him, "Just bring her back in a week to get spayed." All dogs/cats in Seattle shelters (as well as virtually all across the U.S.) must be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. [This also falls under "plot hole" and "character" mistakes.] (00:07:45 - 00:08:40)

Lie Hard (2022)

Continuity mistake: The side of Janet's desk phone is situated roughly parallel to the side of the desk's edge, opposite to her side, but an individual shot of the phone shows it closer to the adjacent side (and her), and angled towards the corner of the desk. (00:23:14)

I'll Be Watching (2023)

Continuity mistake: The bumps/folds on the light-coloured dress lying on the bed vary. After Pepper the cat tramps on the dress and causes indentations in the fabric, the dress is suddenly lying smoothly on the bed. (00:30:18 - 00:30:46)

Lie Hard (2022)

Continuity mistake: The angle/position of Katie's fork near the corner of the table varies, even though she has her hands on her lap or folded on the opposite side of her plate. (00:03:04 - 00:04:30)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The locations of Helena's headbands/ties vary. She has a small, tightly-bound red hair band on the right side at eye level and a yellow one about mid-neck (plus several others). The red band (which looks orange at times) is a couple of inches lower when she sits to talk to Nikolaj. After she shakes hands with Nikolaj, the red tie is above her ear (and others do not appear to be present). (00:07:56 - 00:11:38)

KeyZOid

Character mistake: Corinne suffers a seizure and is at the hospital with Jane at her bedside. Dr. Mitchell enters the room and, without asking what relationship Jane is to Corinne or if Corinne wants Jane to be present, proceeds to tell Corinne the results of her CT scan, referral to a neurologist, and that the hospital has a very strong oncology department. Dr. Mitchell does not take the necessary precautions to maintain Corinne's right to privacy. (00:28:16)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Gabby walks some distance from the Cunningham's house to neighbor O'Connor's house, but she is suddenly talking to Barbara much closer to the Cunningham's house. Back views of Gabby show her near Barbara's front door, but side views show the Cunningham's house behind Gabby and Barbara. (00:16:15 - 00:16:41)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Riley puts the red hard-covered book and two others into the box, but puts the same books into the box when Gabby starts to help. (00:13:35)

KeyZOid

Stupidity: Doug is trying to make his first landing, but he is having difficulty. He tells Jeff that he is "trying to focus," yet he turns his head around to look at Jeff in the backseat three times, taking his eyes off the landing strip. (00:02:20 - 00:02:50)

Clear Lake, WI (2009)

Deliberate mistake: A flare thrown on top of a snow-covered mound of logs/twigs is not able to engulf the area as fast as it does. (01:13:13)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The apple slices in the bowl near the start are arranged differently at least twice, with more being upright. (00:15:08)

Sid Is Dead (2023)

Continuity mistake: The desk lamp (which has an odd 2-3" "halo" around its perimeter) faces the screen (angled away from Sid). Suddenly, the lamp aims at Sid spinning in his chair. The lamp goes back to its original angle but varies a couple more times. (00:41:20)
