Superman/Doomsday mistake picture

Continuity mistake: After the workers at Project Applecore discover Doomsday's ship, Dr. Murphy and the other two stand to look at it. One is standing in front with her adjacent behind him, and the other male worker behind her on the other side. When it cuts to a far shot of Doomsday's ship, suddenly the three of them are in line standing side by side. (00:06:15)

Quantom X

Continuity mistake: When Dr. Murphy at Project Applecore begins mocking Lex Luthor, she begins walking towards another worker and 3 large balls of sweat appear on her face. The shot cuts to a close up of the male worker as she is walking up and suddenly the sweat has vanished. (00:05:50)

Quantom X

Bug: On some bridges, the shadows and head lights of the cars on it will be cast on the ground below it.

Quantom X

Bug: When CJ opens the door of the massive AT-400 jet airliner, the door goes right through him.

Quantom X

Bug: When attacking people in a restaurant, some of them that are sitting will slump over and 'die' with their heads on the table. Yet they are still alive in the game. But you can't lock on to them. You can't kill or hurt them ether. Blood splats, but nothing else. Punching, using melee weapons, shooting, using the chain saw, and even throwing grenades of other uses of explosives doesn't do a thing to them but splatter a little blood. Yet this supposedly 'dead' person will still talk to you if you bump them. Sometimes they'll still do the random compliment or insult and you can still have CJ respond to them.

Quantom X

Bug: Using the continual spawning glitch of civilians in restaurants, if you get to 3 stars, cops start spawning there too. Only they appear with their hands up or crouched in a surrendering position and they never fight you. When they appear, they speak threatening remarks to CJ, but never act.

Quantom X

Factual error: When changing clothes, CJ always does an animation where he inspects the clothing put on him, a different animation depending on where the clothes is. If you change his watch, he holds up his arm and rotates his wrist. But the watch does not rotate with it, despite a wrist rotation also rotating any person's full forearm.

Quantom X

Bug: If CJ stands right behind a chair in Pizza Stack, where he is touching the back of the chair as a person tries to sit in it, the person is partly blocked and can't sit down fully. They still get in the seated position, but are half hanging off the chair and levitating above it. If you move towards the person, it pushes them off the chair and then they stop, just levitating in a seated position beside it.

Quantom X

Trivia: If you complete all the Taxi missions, you get rewarded with an awesome mod on all taxis. Now, any taxi anywhere in the game has NOS, and has the ability to jump by pressing R3 (or XBox equivalent).

Superman/Doomsday (2007)

Superman/Doomsday mistake picture

Continuity mistake: As Clark is telling Lois that he's off to the airport to leave for Afghanistan, she is putting her report on Lex Luthor's "charity organization" in the shredder out of frustration at Perry White. There is a painting of a landscape on the wall behind the paper shredder, and there is a blue file cabinet next to Lois and the shredder. The file cabinet is about the same height as Lois while she's sitting. It cuts to Clark, and then back to Lois in a closer shot, and suddenly the painting on the wall has vanished and the file cabinet is much taller. (00:04:40)

Superman/Doomsday (2007)

Superman/Doomsday mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Clark is packing things from his cubicle when Perry first speaks to him. In the first shot of Clark, you can see the items on the desk of his cubicle, mostly the computer, which is very near the edge. When it cuts to a close up of him putting stuff in his bag, a cup full of pencils and pens appears next to his computer. Then as he is setting down the picture of his mother, the cup has more in it, and the things hanging on the wall of his cubicle change. (00:04:00)

Superman/Doomsday (2007)

Superman/Doomsday mistake picture

Continuity mistake: After Perry White tells Clark to write articles when he's out of the country, Clark reaches over to his desk and picks up a purple lunch box with his right hand. His left hand has his bag in it. He then sees the picture of his mother, Martha, and reaches out with his right hand to pick it up and look at it. The lunch box is gone. He sets the photo back down and turns off his computer, and you see his left hand still holding nothing but his bag, and he turns to walk away. After he gets off the elevator, he suddenly has the lunch box again. (00:04:25)

Superman/Doomsday (2007)

Continuity mistake: When Perry White asks Clark if he shouldn't be on the way to the airport, Clark is putting a binder in his bag. His left hand is holding the bag and 3 of his fingers are balled up except his pinky. When it cuts to a close up of the bag, suddenly none of his fingers are balled, but all stretched out. The shadow of his right arm also appears on the side of the bag suddenly in the close up. (00:04:00)

Superman/Doomsday (2007)

Superman/Doomsday mistake picture

Continuity mistake: As Lois is ranting to Perry White about her report, the door to Perry's office is behind her. You can see the writing of "PERRY WHITE EDITOR" on the door through the glass, backwards as it is on the other side of the door. The edge of the letters of the P in Perry and the E in Editor are about 3 inches from the edge of the window by my best guess. A few shots later, it cuts to outside this door showing Jimmy Olson eavesdropping on the conversation from the other side of the door. Now suddenly the letters are closer to the edge of the window, now being about only an inch. The font style of the text on the window also changes slightly. (00:03:40)

Superman/Doomsday (2007)

Continuity mistake: As Perry White, the Daily Planet's Editor, picks up Lois Lane's report on Luthor's "charity organization", there is a blue mug visible next to his computer on his desk. The handle of the cup is facing to the right away from his computer. Moment later, the camera angle changes to being from the computer's left, and now the handle of the cup is pointing almost towards the computer. (00:03:30)

Jumper (2008)

Question: What game is Griffin playing when David goes to his 'lair' the second time? Just before David teleports there, Griffin is talking to a dead Paladin's body about the game he's playing and new moves. And then David sits in front of the TV to get his attention. You can't see the screen, but you can hear the game and it sounds like something that would be distinctive. What game is it?

Quantom X

Chosen answer: You see the screen for a second before David appears - the game Griffin is playing is Halo: Combat Evolved (the motion sensor HUD in the bottom left corner is quite distinctive).

Sierra1

Other mistake: All the registers in each fast food restaurant say Burger Shot on the screen, even The Clucken Bells and the Pizza Stack.

Quantom X

Bug: If you order food at a fast food restaurant, and then change weapons while CJ is going to the eating animation, it is quite comical. He uses his right hand to eat, which he holds his weapon with. So as he's eating, he also holds his weapon and food together, waving the weapon around and wiping his face. The funniest one is doing that with a chainsaw.

Quantom X

Bug: Don't know what causes this glitch. But on very rare occasions if you go into a Trans Fender body shop with gang members in your car, sometimes one will be standing outside your car in the body shop and just talk while you customize the vehicle. Once you leave Trans Fender, he just vanishes, not in your car either. He's just gone.

Quantom X

Bug: To start a Taxi mission, you must have an empty taxi, i.e. nobody else in with you. If you have one or more gang members in it, it tells you that. But you can trick the game. If you get in the taxi and press R3 (or whatever the XBox equivalent is) before the gang members get in, the taxi mission starts. And then the gang members get in and you can have them with you, shooting out at cops and enemy gangs as you do taxi missions. Watch out though, the passenger you pick up as Taxi fare will always get in a back seat. So have no more than 2 gang members with you, and be sure one is in the front passenger seat to leave one back seat open. Park with that open seat closest to the passenger you are picking up, other wise they'll force a gang member out and the other will get out also, and you've lost them for the taxi mission.
