Mac and Me (1988)

Revealing mistake: Supposedly Mac makes the unplugged TV work with his energy, and Eric looks at it in awe and inspects its loose cables. But if you look at the right side of the TV, you'll see there's another black cable coming out of it hidden among the cardboard boxes, which makes the whole trick work.

Mac and Me (1988)

Plot hole: Mac stretches his bare hand to grab the Coke, but that's impossible, because the bear suit has the hand sewn to the sleeve, so he should have broken the suit. In fact, after he grabs the Coke, the bear-glove suddenly appears on his hand, without no one having put it.
