Coming to America (1988)

Question: When Akeem tells the taxi to halt at the airport, there's something red on the hood. What is it? It looks like something to mount a camera on that was left on, but I'm not sure. Is it something taxi/NYC related?

Bishop73

Answer: That is the taxi medallion, a license for the driver to operate the yellow cab. All NYC yellow taxi cabs must have one of these metal plates (there are different types) affixed to the hood of their NYC yellow taxi. This particular type is the red apple medallion.

Coming to America (1988)

Telegraph Lady: You actually want to send this?
Semmi: Why? What is wrong? Read it to me.
Telegraph Lady: "To his majesty, King Jaffe Joffer, the Royal Palace, Zamunda. Sire, Akeem and I have depleted our funds. Kindly send 300,000 American dollars immediately, as we are in dire straits. Your humble servant, Semi."
Semmi: Semmi.
Telegraph Lady: Semmi.
Semmi: Should I make it 400,000?
Telegraph Lady: You think that would be enough?
Semmi: You are right. 500,000.
Telegraph Lady: As long as you're asking, why don't we go for a cool million?
Semmi: You do not think that would be too much?
Telegraph Lady: Naah.

Lucifer (2015)

Goodbye, Lucifer - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: When Maze says goodbye to Lucifer and takes off on her motorcycle, the cars around change. You can see 2 cars parked with a car next to it with its blinker on. Then there are 3 parked cars and the end one has its hatchback up. Then as she drives off, it's a van. In the next shot the van and hatchback are gone.

Prince Akeem: Oha, it is my 21st birthday. You think perhaps just once I might use the bathroom by myself.
Oha: Most amusing, Sir. Wipers!

Lucifer (2015)

Trivia: At the end, when Adam saves Peter, the two are posed in a similar manner to the Michelangelo painting on the Sistine Chapel of God reaching out his finger to touch Adam's finger. The title of the fresco painting is "The Creation of Adam."

Trivia: Special thanks is given near the end of the credits to Bobcat Goldthwait. When James Gunn was initially fired by Disney, Goldthwait told Disney to remove his voice from the "World of Color" Disney attraction in support of Gunn.

A Good Day to Die - S2-E13

Lucifer: Dearie me, these are atrocious. What self-respecting artist would actually display these?
Dan Espinoza: Dave Maddox isn't a real artist.
Lucifer: To say the least.
Dan: All of this is just a front. You see, criminals like Maddox, they use art sales to cover up money transfers. They can demand any price for a piece of art, and in return provide whatever it is their clients really want.
Lucifer: Can he provide an eye bath? I'll need one after this.

Lucifer (2015)

The Gang Goes Bowling - S16-E7

Continuity mistake: The score for the boys doesn't match what we see. For example, Mac's first roll was a 7, but the score shows 8. And Dennis gets a strike, but the score shows spare. Later, when the girls trick the boys into performing badly, none of that is reflected in the scores. At some point after the 6th frame, Mac and Charlie roll gutter balls multiple times, and each on the first roll at least once, none of which is in the scores.

The Batman (2004)

Rumors - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: At the beginning, when Rumor attacks Croc's men, he ties them up and wraps up their mouths (gags them). But in the next shot, none of their mouths are wrapped up.

Marion: Mutt can be a little impetuous.
Indiana Jones: It's not the worst quality in the world. Keep your arms above the surface. When the kid comes back, grab on.
Marion: Indy, he.
Indiana: He's a good kid, Marion. You should get off his back about school.
Marion: Mutt, I mean.
Indiana: Not everybody is cut out for it.
Marion: His name is Henry!
Indiana: Henry. Good name.
Marion: He's your son.
Indiana: My son?
Marion: Henry Jones the Third.
Indiana: Why the hell didn't you make him finish school!

Punk Leader: Nice night for a walk, eh?
Terminator: Nice night for a walk.
Punk: Wash day tomorrow! Nothing clean! Right?
Terminator: Nothing clean. Right.
Punk Leader: I think this guy is a couple cans short of a six-pack.
Terminator: Your clothes. Give them to me. Now.
