The Running Man (1987)

Other mistake: Damon, the game show host, is talking to an elderly lady who says she's rooting for Richards. Watch Damon's mouth. He's helping the actress by mouthing her words with her.

The Running Man (1987)

Revealing mistake: When Sub Zero is dying, you can see blood spurting. It should be coming from his neck, but it's actually coming from his gloves.

Continuity mistake: Dylan goes over to the hospital to see Guthrie near the beginning. He offers to play a song for Woody. As he's pulling out the guitar, you can see he is wearing gloves. The angle changes as he starts playing. The gloves are completely gone.

Continuity mistake: Gonzo uses Rizzo to clean the window to see into Scrooge's business. The window cleans itself more quickly. You can tell from the original angle that rubbing Rizzo alone isn't cleaning it as fast.

Continuity mistake: Michell and the woman he meets in Uruguay are walking on the beach in the early morning. The sun behind them hasn't even come up over the horizon. There is one shot where it's much higher in the sky to the left of the characters. Then, it's below the horizon again.

9-1-1: Lone Star (2020)

Impact - S5-E11

Audio problem: Paul uses a chainsaw to cut some metal on the stuck gate. He finishes, and you hear the chainsaw spin down as it stops. The chainsaw is not spinning at all, but it's still making noise.

Continuity mistake: Right at the beginning of the film, Michell walks into the gate of the school. The sun is off to one side and it's later in the day. Instantly, when he's inside the school, the sun is overhead.

The Simpsons (1989)

Separate Vocations - S3-E18

Deliberate mistake: Lou and Eddie are driving Bart around in the cop car. Bart asks when they're going to shoot people. The shot cuts to Lou, who is driving. The entire frame of the car disappears around him and it's just him superimposed over a background. The shot cuts again and the frame is now visible. Even if it was a low-angle shot, you'd still see the roof of the car.

Continuity mistake: Lee is talking to Randi while she is sick in bed. She's looking at him. The shot cuts to another angle, and she's looking toward the camera.

Urgent Care - S5-E6

Continuity mistake: Guillermo is lying on a table in the hospital and wearing a dress. Nadja comes in, trying to get him out of there. While she is talking to him, he sits up a bit and starts playing with the bottom of his shirt. The shot cuts, and now he is lying flat on the table again.

Starship Troopers (1997)

Trivia: A significant amount of the movie was shot at Hell's Half Acre, 45 minutes west of Casper, Wyoming. This substituted as the Bug planets, in particular Planet P. Some local residents of Casper were extras in the film. The crew faced difficulties with filming in Wyoming, particularly weather-related issues. At times, the area experienced high temperatures during the day, causing some actors to suffer heat strokes. At night, the temperatures would drop significantly, or it would snow.

Richie Rich (1994)

Revealing mistake: Near the end, there is a scene of the bad guy hanging upside down on Mt. Richmore. In the top left is an odd line going through the shot. It looks like the background (the out-of-focus house) is placed behind the man and poorly blended with the shot. Incredibly obvious on the Netflix version. (01:28:17)

Thelma and Louise (1991)

Factual error: When they're trying to head to Mexico, they pass the same rock formations several times. Specifically, earlier in the drive, the formations are in the scene where they mention the Rocky Mountains. The same formations can be seen later when they get pulled over by the cop. It's like they're driving in circles. Part of the film was shot outside of Moab, Utah, near Arches National Park. (01:34:19 - 01:41:30)

Thelma and Louise (1991)

Revealing mistake: Near the end, as they are chasing the girls, the cops turn around on the freeway into the dirt median. They follow exact tyre tracks from previous takes.

Thelma and Louise (1991)

Audio problem: Right after the girls blow up the tanker, there is a sequence with scanner traffic. They show some helicopters. Right at the beginning of the scene with the choppers, the audio of them cuts out for a split second.

Land (2021)

Visible crew/equipment: When Edee is driving up to the cabin for the first time, just before they get there, there are a couple of shots looking through the windshield showing her looking out. A couple of the shots have a shadow of the top of the camera very visible. You can see the mic antenna on it.

Speed (1994)

Continuity mistake: When Jack is trying to catch up to the bus in Tuneman's car, the sun changes several times. In most angles, it's to their right. At one point, it is behind them. Then, it's above them.

Speed (1994)

Continuity mistake: Jack is lying on his horn trying to get onto the onramp. This is right before he drives past Tuneman. He is lying on the horn, and yet both of his hands are on the wheel.
