Misery (1990)

Other mistake: When Annie forces Paul to burn his new book, she puts charcoal lighter fluid on the draft of his new book. She then adds more to some pages inside the book. The words on the inside page are not a fictional story but a review of the movie Say Anything by Cameron Crowe.

Demolition Man (1993)

Revealing mistake: When Simon Phoenix needs to get out of the cryo-prison, we are led to believe he removes the eyeball and put it on the nib of a fountain pen.

The tips of the chopsticks are crossed with the fly in the middle.

Continuity mistake: Daniel is supposed to break six pieces of ice. We see the man putting the six pieces in the slots. The shot where Daniel is approaching the ice their are only four pieces of ice. We then see two shots with six pieces of ice. When Daniel finally breaks the ice there are once again only four pieces of ice in the rack. (01:07:30 - 01:08:25)

Continuity mistake: When Daniel is about to break the six pieces of ice, the slabs of ice change from shot to shot. In one shot the 5th piece from the left is peaked and taller than the others. In the next shot of the ice the 3rd piece from the left is the tallest piece of ice. (01:07:50)

Factual error: When they track the down the snake keeper that had the snakes he was bitten. The snake expert went into the fridge for the anti-venom and it was already mixed in the vial. He then loaded a syringe with the antivenin. This is a major flaw. Antivenoms have to be mixed. They are never in a vial ready to go. They are always mixed and warmed in a solution prior to administration.

Factual error: When Neville Flynn is going to reset the breaker for the A/C he is in the cargo hold. He moves aside a shipping container, a unit load device (ULD). This unit load device had a big sticker across the top of the side. All ULDs are required by FAA regulations to have the identifying number on all four sides at the highest, most visible point. There was no identifying number on the front and there was none on the side. Where one belonged there was a big Pacific Air sticker. This was more than likely covering up the ULD number that was borrowed from another airlines.

Continuity mistake: When Matt and Jenny are on their first date the way she is holding her wine glass changed from shot to shot. First she is holding the bowl of the glass, then the stem, then back to the bowl.

Ken Park (2002)

Factual error: When Tate is playing Scrabble with his Grandparents, his grandfather tries to use "SIPI" as a word. Tate challenges that word. He looks it up in the dictionary to find out if it is not a word. He then says, "I see sip and sepia, but no sipi." To find sipi, he would have to look after sip, not before sip. Sepia comes before sip. He should have said, depending on which dictionary, "I see sip and sir, but no sipi."
