Revealing mistake: Several maps of Europe shown in the film have Germany divided into East and West, and show national borders from 1945 onwards.

David Mercier

Deliberate mistake: The eyewitness testimony that placed Oswald in the lunchroom at the book despository didn't come to light until the House Select Committee on Assassination in 1978, many years after the Shaw trial.

The One Where Ross And Rachel Take A Break - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When Monica and Phoebe are eating with the diplomat and his translator, watch the translator's chocolate cake. It either rotates, has some taken out of it, or is a different piece. Whichever way, the cake changes size, shape or position without him ever touching it. (00:18:10)

David Mercier

Audio problem: At the premiere of Bride of the Monster, someone can be heard shouting "Mr Landau," which of course is the real name of the actor playing Bela Lugosi.

David Mercier

Factual error: During the ballet scene in the Marriage of Figaro, many of the costumes worn by the dancers have visible zips on them, which of course had not been invented then.

David Mercier

Continuity mistake: When Mozart is playing billiards (Director's Cut only) the balls move around on the table between camera shots, without him necessarily hitting any.

David Mercier

Audio problem: The keyboard Kevin gets from the music shop seems to have an interesting trait, in that the high notes are on the left. This must either be bad "audio dubbing" or something to do with the shot perhaps being reversed, although I doubt this. It's most likely a post-production audio error as very very few keyboards or pianos are configured in this way.

David Mercier

Audio problem: At one point, I think it's when they arrive at the dead Hydra, Aeetes' Captain (with the brown "bobble-hat" and the moustache) says a line like "Some of you up there....and that way," and is pointing to direct the soldiers. It is very obvious that he is not saying this line and that it was dubbed on afterwards.

David Mercier

Revealing mistake: Towards the end of the film Medea gets shot by an arrow. If you look closely you can see that no arrow is visible in the air, and that it would have to pass through Jason to actually hit her where it does, as he is in the way.

The Last Time I Saw Maris - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: When Niles is drunk in Frasier's appartment, he puts a six-pack of beer cans on the table by Martin's chair. The pack has changed position on the table later on when Frasier is talking about empowerment, without anyone touching it. (00:09:15 - 00:10:35)

David Mercier

Visible crew/equipment: When Emilio and Sam arrive at the "Squealer's Motel" and get out of the car, the camera man and sound man are visible in the window behind them as they walk towards the group of police.

David Mercier

Continuity mistake: In the flashback where the dog (Claire) is spraying lighter fluid on the barbeque, notice the direction of the nozzle before and after the explosion. Before it is pointing towards the barbeque and afterwards it is right angles to it, facing towards the camera, meaning that if it were squeezed it would not hit the barbeque at all. And I very much doubt the explosion could cause the bottle to rotate in this manner.

David Mercier

Continuity mistake: Near the start of the film where Emilio is making himself a very large drink, the bottles of alcohol move about on the bar between shots and camera angles.

David Mercier

Factual error: When Lawrence arrives at the Suez Canal, the ship which sails past is The Priam, of a 1950's design, and I think actually belonged to a company called "Blue Funnel Line."

David Mercier

Audio problem: There is a scene in the lab where Arnie is explaining his pregnancy to Emma. The shot cuts to a side-on, rear shot of Arnie and it is very clear his mouth or jaw isn't moving and yet you can hear him talking.

David Mercier

The One Where They're Up All Night - S7-E12

Continuity mistake: There is a long shot of Rachel and another person sitting on the sofa and Rachel's wine glass is almost empty. She then goes over to the the counter to fill it up. However, before she starts to fill it, a significant quantity of wine can be seen in the glass. (00:07:35)

David Mercier

The Germans - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: When Basil is turning the fire alarm on and off, he puts the key next to the red box and turns it. However, there isn't a slot for the key to actually go in; he's just holding it close and turning it.

David Mercier

The Psychiatrist - S2-E2

Revealing mistake: There are noticable disparaties between the locations of rooms and the windows on the outside of the building. This is particularly noticable in this episode when Basil climbs a ladder to look through the window.

David Mercier

Continuity mistake: When Keanu and Jeff are on their way to the building at the start of the film, their car flies over a hill and lands back on the road. The right hand front wheel takes a really nasty knock as it lands and looks ready to come off, and yet in the next shot they arrive safely with no apparent difficulty driving the car. (00:06:00)

David Mercier

Continuity mistake: When the characters are standing in the den after the cat has ruined everything, there are plates all over the floor. There is a "T-shaped" pile of plates around De Niro's right foot that almost rotates between cuts.
