Mutant (1984)

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the movie, when Josh and Holly are trying to escape in the car, a mutant is on the roof and starts melting its hand through the windshield to get at Josh. The mutant is leaning over the windshield with its hand sticking through a hole it melted in the glass. In the next shot as they round a corner, the mutant is suddenly towards the back of the roof of the car, just holding on without attacking the windshield. In the next shot, the hole is gone also from the glass. (01:25:45)

Prey - S3-E14

Revealing mistake: After Andrea avoids the truck on the road, she is attacked in the woods by some walkers and pinned to a tree. After breaking free, she goes to stab a woman on the ground with her knife. But as she goes to strike, you can see the actress slowing her strike down "pulling the punch" and gently resting the blade on the walker's head instead of actually striking. (00:20:41)

Continuity mistake: When Kumar gets out of the car to go pee, Harold pulls out his laptop. As he is leaning forward to pick it up, he is not wearing his glasses. He picks up the laptop with both hands and starts to open it, never having his hands have time to put on glasses but suddenly he has glasses on.

Galaxy Quest (1999)

Audio problem: Right after the Thermians become sad over the mention of Gilligan's Island, Alexander rolls his eyes and starts to turn away, while you can hear him saying "Oh brother." However his lips are not moving for this indicating the line was dubbed in.

Suggested correction: It's quite obviously Laredo/Tommy's voice saying "Oh, brother" off camera. Not Alan Rickman. Their voices don't sound anything alike. You can see for yourself at this clip at about 1:03: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26tWWopd_3g.

Suggested correction: It is not Alexander who says it, but most likely Guy.

No it's Alan Rickman's voice.

Quantom X

It's definitely not Alan Rickman's voice. It's Tommy/Laredo's voice off camera saying the line.

Dead by Daylight (2016)

Audio problem: Character: The Plague: This killer will often speak while in the menu in her native tongue of Babylonian, raising her hands and looking up in the sky. However, her mouth does not match her speaking at all as she merely just opens her mouth a little and leaves it that way.

Continuity mistake: As Batman is walking through Arkham, he passes the Riddler's cell. Riddler leans up against the glass of his door with his hands against the glass near his face and mouth. When the angle changes to behind Riddler, suddenly his hands and arms are down more to chest level with his right hand outstretched towards the side of the door. (00:07:02)

Continuity mistake: After talking with Bullock on the roof, Batman is in his vehicle and talking to Hugo. On the screen, Hugo lifts up a glass to his mouth to take a drink, but when the camera cuts to a close up of the screen, suddenly his arm is lower, and he is once again lifting the glass to his face.

Common mistakes

Factual error: It's common in movies and shows, and even games sometimes, to see characters effortlessly lifting manhole covers. Usually when climbing out from them or even just walking up and lifting them with bare hands. In the case of the TMNT, where they have enhanced strength, it's a little more believable. However, in real life these lids are super heavy and usually require a crane or other heavy equipment to lift.

Hunt: Showdown

Hunt: Showdown mistake picture

Revealing mistake: The character Sheriff Hardin is wearing a Sheriff's star badge on his chest. His coat has a flap on the opening that overlaps it a little causing the badge to clip through his jacket half-way.

Bug: I have found animal tracks of a deer going under a cabin, as if the deer walked right through the walls like Kitty Pride.

Family Guy (1999)

Deliberate mistake: This mistake/trick was revealed in the second DVD commentary on the film. When Bond is underwater in the ship with the flare, this flare does not behave realistically. If they had used real flares, it would have put too much smoke and dirt in the water and quickly made it too murky to see or film through. So the flare used was a special effects prop of a bright light with bubbles being fed through it to give a good effect, but is not how a real flare would be under water. (01:08:25)

Valentin Zuvkovsky: Can't you just say 'hello', like a normal person? (01:28:44)

Audio problem: After the engines of the stealth boat are stopped, Bond is walking around with a sub machine gun and his pistol. His pistol has a large silencer/suppressor on it. A man tries to ambush him on a later and Bond turns and fires his pistol at him several times. Despite the suppressor, the gun makes the full sound of the shots. (01:45:14)

Quantom X

Continuity mistake: When Carver has Bond and Wai Lin in his new building after capture, he is writing their obituaries as he narrates it. The camera zooms slowly closer to Bond and Lin before cutting to a close up of Lin. Suddenly, her mouth is shut when it was partly open before, and her hair is in a slightly different position. (01:13:34)

Family Guy (1999)

Nea Karlson: Come see this creepy abandoned factory I just tagged.
Casey: I have no time for your ego.
Nea Karlson: Ego? W-what are you talking about?
Casey: Big deal, Nea. Your name on a ruined wall, or whatever. Who cares? Why not stand for something? Say something? All that time and energy just to say you tagged a scary place. Whoopie. Big fuckin' deal. [Nea Karlson shrugs] I don't know... if you'd at least piss off a tyrant, you would have done something with your... your... art... if that's what you want to call it.

Factual error: After Lincoln is president, there is a scene of an official reading a document outside the White House. From the angle at the man's feet pointed up, the modern electrical lights in the ceiling are visible.

Continuity mistake: After the kids are told Sara hung herself at the hospital, Chuck asks "what are they waiting for, let's go". Stella is bending down to pick up the book in one shot, but the angle cuts while Chuck is still saying the word "go" and suddenly he has vanished from the room as the other two start to leave.
