The Villain (1979)

The Villain mistake picture

Revealing mistake: During Cactus Jack's first failure at lying a trap, while he's under Handsome's wagon, Jack loses his cowboy boots and pants. The camera follows the insane stretching suspenders, and when it cuts to Cactus Jack in his red long johns, the black stunt booties are visible at his feet/ankles; then in the next wide shot, the stunt's footgear is gone. Additionally, as Cactus Jack gets pulled toward his pants, it appears that he slides past his pants in the long shot, but is successful in the next close-up. (00:33:00)

Other mistake: Handsome and Charming head out of Snakes End (followed by the newlyweds) and begin their long journey. It then cuts to Cactus Jack before he begins the journey, and at the start of this shot as he places Whiskey's bit, we can see the signpost with three wooden arrow signs and the hillside behind him. This is the same location where Cactus Jack lays trap number seven, named "the tunnel in the hillside," on the next day during the journey; noticeable when Handsome and Charming arrive. (00:28:35 - 00:54:45)

Visible crew/equipment: After Cactus Jack shares with Whiskey his dream of buying a nice spread, when Cactus Jack lays trap number four with the rope across the road, he then leaps onto Whiskey, and in the two shots at this angle, we can see the moving shadow of the boom mic on the ground, at the bottom left corner of the screen.

The Villain (1979)

Continuity mistake: Cactus Jack's leather cowboy boots have block heels and spurs with rowels and jingle bobs. In quite a few shots throughout the movie, Jack's boots change to no-heel flat soles, and the spurs are missing, though we still hear the distinctive jangling of Cactus Jack's spurs.

Family Matters - S13-E18

Visible crew/equipment: At the hospital, after Maria tells Danny about the busboy who was arrested for the same venue and same MO, it then cuts to Jaime undercover in the store. While Jaime walks toward Marco, the dealer at the counter, the camera moves at the same pace as Jaime, and we can see the reflection of the camera on the glass (between Jaime and the camera).

Family Matters - S13-E18

Continuity mistake: When Danny and Baez confront Carmine to clear a few things up, Carmine tells them to call his lawyer. Just as Carmine clicks his key fob and his car explodes, Carmine's coat is entirely unbuttoned, but when he's blown backwards and slams onto the ground, in the first overhead shot of Carmine lying on the ground, his coat is buttoned up.

Isabella - S1-E12

Visible crew/equipment: Livia and Junior have a chat about Tony while waiting in line for a movie matinee. It then cuts to the Soprano house, and in the next overhead shot of Tony sprawled on his bed, we can see the T-mark on the floor near the door. In a moment, Lilliana knocks and enters to remind Tony of his appointment.

Join the Club - S6-E2

Visible crew/equipment: During one of Tony's coma dreams, when the hotel elevator is out of order, Tony uses the stairway and then ends up falling down a flight of stairs. Just before he lands, we can see a crew member's hands holding a camera steady (filming the stunt double's close-up view) at the bottom left corner of the screen.

Cold Cuts - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: At Uncle Pat's farm, when Tony sits down to breakfast and the conversation turns to terrorism, when Pat says, "Not my problem much longer," we see the newspaper in Tony B's hands in the wide shot, but it cuts to a close-up and the newspaper is turned the opposite way, with no images and different body text.

He Is Risen - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: At Nuovo Vesuvio, Artie pours some Candolini for himself and Tony, then sets the bottle down with the back label (it has the barcode) facing out in the wide shot. In the next close-up, as Ralphie sits down at the table, now the front label of the Candolini is facing out, but when Tony gets up to leave, the bottle reverts to the back label facing out in the wide shot.
