Hammer Down - S6-E7
Visible crew/equipment: Season 6, episode 7 "Hammer Down": Just after Mac and Ray have finished briefing the other officers as they are about to begin a chase, there is an actor's red T-mark on the floor, visible just as the officers begin to walk towards the scene. (00:34:55)
Continuity mistake: Orca's ID number normally reads MS 15 LF on both her port and starboard side at the bow. However, after Quint shouts, "Hooper, you idiot. Ain't you watchin it?" Orca's ID number reads M 15 L at starboard side and 15 LF at port. (01:16:30)
Revealing mistake: In the major helicopter scene when Ride of the Valkyries is played, the actual tape isn't going over the playing heads. (00:37:29)
Other mistake: Stitch watches 1958's "The Spider" on TV in a store's window. Some shots face the TV screen, and other shots face Stitch so we're seeing the TV screen's reflection. When Nani tells Lilo they'll meet at 1:00, in this shot facing Stitch the reflection of "The Spider" movie is properly backwards (note "mattress" sign), but two shots later the reflection of the woman screaming in that movie is in fact not reversed as it should be ("The Spider" scene timecode is 00:55:50). (00:28:50)
Revealing mistake: During some scenes, straw-stuffed Scarecrow's pant legs and his boots would sometimes have a gap that reveals the skin of Ray Bolger's leg. Two examples are, at Emerald City when Scarecrow places Lion's "cape" on him, and also when Dorothy and her friends are told the Wizard says to go away. (01:05:50 - 01:07:25)
Revealing mistake: When Anna and Hans are dancing in front of the lighthouse, we don't see the shadow of the railing or the ground they're standing on.
Visible crew/equipment: After Indy and Henry have escaped from Castle Brunwald, Indy jumps into one of the boats, pulls the motor starter cord and jumps back out, then just as he bends over to release the boat from the piling, right between Indy's legs the black covered arm of a hidden crew member appears from under the tarp taking hold of the throttle, steering the boat away from the pier. (01:02:40)
Visible crew/equipment: On the train, Jack hears Mac saying the track isn't finished, then Jack becomes aware of the broken emergency stop button. When Jack walks back over to Annie and tells her they have to jump, we can see the reflection of the standing camera operator on the right door's window, and the reflection of a crouching crew member (possibly boom operator) on the left door's window. Definitely crew given they're meant to be alone on the train. (01:45:55)
Continuity mistake: When Lilo is practicing her hula and Stitch tries to tell her that he is all better, one of the costumes for the hula is on the floor behind Lilo, but it disappears two shots later. (00:37:34)
Visible crew/equipment: During the "full attack" at the start of the Battle of Stirling Bridge, Wallace repeatedly shouts, "Hold," and in the wideshot right before Wallace finally shouts, "Now!" as the horses gallop towards the right side of the screen, we can see a white car at the left side of the screen. Viewed widescreen version. (01:27:15)
Revealing mistake: While the gemstone smuggler is riding in the back seat of NY's Finest Taxi Service, in his close-ups note the vehicle's chrome button door lock, the garment hook over the window, etc. When the police cruiser makes a short stop, now in the smuggler's close-ups the door lock's chrome button cover is gone so only the inner pin remains, the garment hook has been removed, etc. (00:32:40)
Continuity mistake: When Mr. Incredible lands on the island, he gets stuck in his capsule, eventually smashing it to get out. He starts stretching, bending backwards. The angle lowers to show that Mr. Incredible's suit is now a two-piece, revealing his fat stomach. During the rest of the movie, the suit is a one-piece, so this wouldn't be possible. (00:35:15)
Visible crew/equipment: Just as Eddie rides his motorcycle down from the lab's upper level, in the shot from behind him, set equipment and a few crew members are seen gathered at the top right of the screen, just before the shot cuts away. (00:44:40)
Visible crew/equipment: Just as Jack says, "On deck, you scabrous dogs," to the very left edge of the screen over Jack's shoulder is a grip crew member with a tan cowboy hat, white short sleeve tee shirt and sunglasses, just standing there looking out to sea. (02:12:35)
Continuity mistake: When Gino and Arliss are given the contract to kill Agent 11, note the distinctive pattern on the shirt Arliss is wearing - particularly the collars, which keeps changing even within the same scenes. Though the actor's wardrobe consisted of black shirts of the same style, their patterns varied. For example, during the scene at the pet store there are at least three different patterns seen on his shirt. The same thing happens again later with a different shirt Arliss is wearing, after the scenes of Gino and Arliss at the dog training facility.
Continuity mistake: The tiger bites the seat off the suitor's trousers, allowing the viewer to see his polka-heart boxers. When we see the tiger in the courtyard, he has a part of the same boxer shorts in his mouth. So if he bit off the seat of the trousers, shouldn't he have purple cloth in his mouth? (00:11:45)
Other mistake: When the stormtroopers break into the control room, the stormtrooper on the right of the screen hits his head on the door frame. On the DVD release they've added a thump when he hits it. (01:18:55)
Other mistake: When Buzz and Woody run to the Pizza Planet, the people inside are frozen solid; the animators forgot (or simply didn't bother) to animate the characters.
Continuity mistake: When Ghostface is trying to kill Tatum in the garage, she tries to go through the doggie door. From the outside shot, she is out of the door from her arms and up. From the inside shot, she is out of the door from her hips and up. (01:04:20)
Visible crew/equipment: During the jungle chase, Marion jumps out of the truck, leaving Dovchenko driverless. A few shots later, Spalko fires on the two amphibious vehicles, and when Mac removes his cap to check his head, the actor's modern wired device (earbud or mic perhaps) drops out from under his scarf/shirt and hangs over his shirt. Later, in the chamber with the crystal skeletons, Mac admits to lying about the CIA, then as Spalko climbs the chamber stairs, it looks like her lav mic is a bit visible between two upper buttons. (01:17:10 - 01:44:15)
