Continuity mistake: In rear views of Alice at the outside table, the lemon slice atop her glass is on the right side, but on the left side in front views. Also, in front views, there is an obvious red cherry floating opposite the lemon slice and her drink has a darker red tint. The angle of her straw varies with front versus rear views. (00:42:15)

Falling for the Manny (2023)
Continuity mistake: Max and Alice have about equal amounts of wine in their glasses (less than half-full). Alice takes a drink and the levels of wine are still about the same, but Alice's glass has more when the camera shifts. (00:05:40)

Falling for the Manny (2023)
Continuity mistake: The positions/angles of the cell phones on the table change. (Max and Alice each have one hand on a wine glass and the other below the tabletop.) Most noticeable is Max's phone, which moves a couple of inches towards the edge of the table. (00:05:40)

Time Boys (2023)
Continuity mistake: The teacup handle (left side of the screen) rotates about 45°, even though no one touches the cup. (00:11:50 - 00:12:30)
19th Nov 2023
The Portable Door (2023)
Continuity mistake: The position of the pamphlet display on the side table changes a few times after Paul sits on the couch. The pamphlets are near the upper right-hand corner of the table before Paul sits, and then the pamphlets are behind the lamp, towards the rear-center. The pamphlets are in the upper left-hand corner, then suddenly in the upper right-hand corner (where they start) when Paul removes one from the display. The location and angle of the lamp shade also vary. (00:09:00 - 00:09:25)

Another Happy Day (2011)
Revealing mistake: While Lynn is driving, the scenery outside the driver's side window goes white a few times and, other times, with intermittent specks of green tree leaves/shrubs. The white-outs are too low to be representing the sky. For a period of time, the lower third or so of her side window is a horizontal white bar. (00:02:20 - 00:03:38)

A Thousand and One (2023)
Trivia: NY Mayor Rudy Giuliani says, "Dream, believe, plan, and work" in his 1/02/1994 inauguration speech. Mayor Giuliani goes from TIME magazine's 2001 "Person of the Year" and status as "America's Mayor" due to his leadership following the 9/11 attacks to a number of scandals, legal issues, and indictment/arrest in 8/2023 related to his role in challenging Biden's 2020 election results.

A Thousand and One (2023)
Continuity mistake: The position of Terry's baseball cap's visor (worn backwards) varies several times, from straight down to skewed to the right or left. When Terry exits the vehicle, the visor is towards his right side, but straight down when he stands. (Terry's arms are at his sides.) The visor moves to the left when Inez hugs him, but is straight down when he enters the building and to his right after he gets inside. The visor is straight down when Inez slaps him, but angled to the right when she leaves. (00:22:40 - 00:23:38)

A Thousand and One (2023)
Continuity mistake: While Lucky does push-ups on the floor, the positions of the pack of cigarettes and lighter on the coffee table change. In the side view, the cigarette pack goes from partially behind the glass to a couple of inches to the right, and the lighter goes from mostly to the right of the cigarettes to behind the pack. (00:42:08)

Book Club: The Next Chapter (2023)
Revealing mistake: Vivian talks on the phone as she walks towards the camera. A couple walks behind her in the opposite direction. A bicyclist emerges from the left-center side of the screen and heads straight across the path, perpendicularly towards the couple. The bicyclist "disappears" behind Vivian, just before he reaches (crashes into) the couple, and the camera cuts to Carol. Seconds later, Vivian still walks towards the screen, and a different person walks where the couple was. (00:14:38)

That's a Wrap (2023)
Factual error: Stoney sets his lit marijuana cigarette on the metal garbage can lid and walks away. The cigarette is still lit and does not burn down after 3+ minutes of screen time. A lit marijuana cigarette left unattended burns a short time and forms ashes before extinguishing itself. (00:55:35 - 00:58:50)
6th Nov 2023
Tales of the Fantastic (2023)
Continuity mistake: The remote-controlled truck heads towards a long, square-shaped wall (or landscape edging), about as high as the truck. As the truck gets closer, the wall becomes a partially buried long pipe. The truck more easily goes over the less-exposed round pipe. (00:07:38)

Goodbye, Butterfly (2021)
Continuity mistake: Mia holds her doll's face next to hers, but the doll is not there when the camera shifts. The doll is to Mia's side on the bed, but instantly back next to her face. (This is independent of the times Mia moves her doll.) (00:02:25)
5th Nov 2023
Hearts & Horses (2023)
Continuity mistake: The pony is let into the small pen/corral, and there are two stacked bales of hay. The pony apparently knocks over one bale while eating, but the bales are suddenly stacked again. (The inconsistency persists into the next morning when the bales are side-by-side, or someone feeds the pony and rearranges the bales.) (00:02:57 - 00:04:04)
4th Nov 2023
Andy Somebody (2023)
Continuity mistake: The position/angle of the pizza box on the bed changes. The edges of the box are roughly in alignment with the edges of the bed in front views of Sofia. In the right side view of Sofia, she holds her phone in her right hand and the pizza box is at about a 60° angle and closer to the corner of the bed. Sofia quickly switches her phone to her left hand but does not have time to also move the box back to being in alignment with the edges of the bed. (00:54:25)

The Legend of Halloween Jack (2018)
Deliberate mistake: There is a wooden chair upside down on the floor, with legs that angle outward. Jack Cain is able to pick up a party-goer, throw him down from over his head, and spear the party-goer on the right side with two of the chair legs. The chair legs are still angled outward but will break off to the side from the force of the party-goer's back hitting them. (01:07:17)

Andy Somebody (2023)
Continuity mistake: The brown rectangular box (clock?) on the nightstand is at an angle to the corner. Andy struggles to sit up in bed, looks towards the nightstand and the object is more aligned with the corner edges of the nightstand. (01:12:05 - 01:12:33)
4th Nov 2023
Blood Harvest (2023)
Trivia: Neil (thief) sees the rag doll on the chair and says, "Holy Smokes, this is old." The "Raggedy Ann" doll begins as a book character in "Raggedy Ann Stories" (1918), but is created three years earlier by cartoonist Johnny Gruelle. Raggedy Ann and brother Raggedy Andy dolls are still manufactured today. The Raggedy Ann doll in the movie appears to be circa 1940s and might sell for $100 - 200 (used) on E-Bay. Dolls imprint with the 9/07/15 patent date may worth $1,000 - 3,000. (00:35:20)
