Continuity mistake: When Kevin and Michelle tease Ryan about "needing the validation of Instagram models, " watch closely. In between shots, Kevin and Michelle are instantly looking in different directions and doing different things. (Ex. Between shots, Kevin goes from facing Ryan to facing down, and Michelle goes from holding her own drink to pouring a different drink for Kevin).

Continuity mistake: When Ryan and his date sneak into Max and Annie's house, Ryan knocks over some plants, spilling dirt all over the counter in front of it. It briefly cuts to Max, and when it cuts back, Ryan has put the plants back upright but almost all the dirt has vanished from the counter. It's totally impossible for him to have cleaned up all the dirt in the mere second-or-two that passed between shots.

Continuity mistake: When Max and Annie are talking about whether to invite Gary to game night, after Annie says that Gary has got worse after his divorce, Max turns and looks at her RIGHT before the shot ends. But in the very next shot, suddenly he is facing down and away from her.

Continuity mistake: When Gary points out that Max and Annie have three bags of Tostitos chips, watch the bag in Max's hands. Before Gary says his line, everything is pushed down relatively far, with only the very top few inches of the chips and some celery visible. After Gary's line, when it cuts back to Max and Annie about two seconds later, suddenly the chips and celery are all sticking much higher out of the bag.

Trivia: William Hurt had numerous and constant conflicts with the director over the creative vision of the film, and the fact they could not communicate well due to a language barrier. Hurt also alluded to the fact that his notorious reputation (being very difficult to work with perfectionist who obsessively tried to inhabit his characters) may have contributed to their antagonistic relationship. Despite this, the film and Hurt were met with critical acclaim, and Hurt earned an Oscar for his part.

Trivia: Despite being considered an important piece of film history and being an Academy Award-winning film, "Kiss of the Spider Woman" is notoriously hard to find in many countries (including the US) due to nightmarish rights disputes. It was only available on disc for a brief window, has gone through multiple decade-or-more stretches without any official release and is unavailable to stream legally.

Continuity mistake: In the opening montage, when Chucky is rebuilt, they show his shoes being tied. About a minute later, when the CEO and his assistant enter the room, you can see one of the tech guys tying his shoes in the background... even though they were already tied.

Trivia: The doll's eye in the very first shot was actually quite huge. The prop was several feet wide. It was more practical to build an oversized prop for the shot than try to meticulously get the shot with the regular-sized doll's eye.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: The first shot of the movie is an extreme closeup of Chucky's eye. Two shots later, you get a view of his whole face... and his eye is completely different. The color and design is slightly different, and the charred plastic around it doesn't match. The scene was shot with two different props (an oversized eye for the extreme closeup as confirmed in the commentary, then a regular sized doll-head for the next shot), and they didn't quite match.

Trivia: The movie spawned from a dark joke the director made. He had jokingly blurted out that a sexual predator he saw on TV should "have his mouth stitched to the a** of a fat truck driver." He and his friends found the idea so gross that he decided to develop it into a horror movie.

Deliberate mistake: When Violator turns back into Clown in the alley, watch closely. You can see his shadow beneath him for a few seconds as he's transforming, and it doesn't match the transformation of the giant monster into the Clown... it's just Clown's regular shadow from the actor standing on-set. More than likely, it's a shortcut for the effects - they didn't bother rendering a simulated shadow. You have to look kinda close to notice it the first time, but once you see it, it's obvious.

Continuity mistake: When Spawn is fighting Violator for the first time, there are some shots of him walking down the alley looking for Violator while holding his gun. In-between shots, Spawn goes from holding his gun with one hand, to both hands, back to one hand, etc. repeatedly.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Spawn is fighting Violator the first time, there's a moment where a homeless man finds Spawn's gun, and Spawn grabs it and spins around to point it at Violator... only to realise Violator has vanished. In the first shot of Spawn grabbing his gun, he's right next to the homeless man, and the homeless man begins to turn his head in Violator's direction. It then cuts to a wider shot, and suddenly Spawn is a bit further away from the homeless man and the man is no longer turning his head.

The Puppet Show - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Giles walks up to Buffy, Xander and Willow after The Body is found at the beginning of the episodes, watch the extras walking by in the background. They don't always match as the shot cuts back and forth between Giles and Buffy/Xander/Willow. Ex. When Buffy asks "Vampire?" nobody is walking behind her, but when it cuts to the opposite angle, suddenly two students are walking by from Buffy's direction that weren't there before. This sort of thing happens at least two or three times.

The Puppet Show - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: After the credits, when Buffy, Xander and Willow sit down to talk about what to do for the talent show, two people walk into the background behind Buffy and are standing there talking throughout the scene. At one point, it cuts to Xander for about one second when he says the line "Whatever happened to corporal punishment?", then cuts back to Buffy, and the two people behind her are suddenly gone. There's not enough time for them to have walked away between shots - they simply vanish.

Trivia: Billy Zane was a fan of the character and took the film very seriously. He spent a year working out and doing weight training to build muscle mass, so he wouldn't have to wear a fake muscle suit. He'd also leave set in full costume and drive around, get lunch, etc.

The Puppet Show - S1-E9

Other mistake: In the very first shot (a long tracking shot backstage), watch the girl practising with her tuba. At one point she pulls her mouth away and then leans back in and starts playing some notes. But you can tell that she isn't blowing into it, and in fact, her mouth isn't even quite touching it. So it shouldn't be producing any notes. Then, almost immediately after, you can also see the actress purposely moving the tuba (sort-of rotating it to her right) to get out of the cameraman's way.

Trivia: The film is inspired by the classic Mel Brooks comedy "Blazing Saddles," and is intended to be a child-friendly retelling, with many near-identical sequences. In fact, it was originally titled "Blazing Samurai," and it would have been about an African-American man becoming a samurai. It was eventually retitled, and the studio decided to rework the narrative by making it about a dog living in a world of cats, in order to make the anti-racism message more subtle and "universal."

Trivia: Rhythm and Hues won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects for this film. It was their third Oscar. But ironically, the company had to declare bankruptcy and lay-off half their staff just a few months before they won. And when the company was brought up during an acceptance speech for the film, the microphone was cut off. This led to widespread demonstrations and protests against the film and director Ang Lee by effects artists, as they are often marginalized, overworked and underpaid by studios.

Trivia: After Wes Craven decided to cast an actual actor as Freddy instead of a stuntman, famed and prolific British actor David Warner was initially cast in the part, and even did some (really cool and creepy) makeup effects tests that can be found online. Unfortunately, Warner had to drop out of the part when scheduling conflicts arose at the last minute, which lead to Craven casting Robert Englund.
