Revealing mistake: Interior versus exterior views of the window sill/ledge are different when Brandon is aiming his rifle out. From inside the building, the window sill looks flat and the front tripod legs are close to the inside; from outside the window, the front tripod legs are over the window frame plus the ledge is layered. In some shots, it also looks like the window pane was opened horizontally to the left, but Brandon opened it by pushing it vertically upward to overlap the top pane. (01:00:43 - 01:01:41)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The way Brandon holds his rifle out the window changes. In some shots (almost every other one), Brandon is holding it at a downward angle (toward the people at ground level) but in other shots he is holding it straight out (parallel to the floor). Also, the man looking out the binoculars holds them straight out instead of at a downward angle. (01:00:43 - 01:01:24)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Before Lady Death attacks Brandon Beckett, the six garbage bags (near the front) are close to the wood block pallet (which appears to be a standard GMA @ 48"x40"), but after Brandon picks up one garbage bag to shield himself from her knife, there is more space between the garbage bags and the block pallet (which is now smaller, more like size 36"x36"). (00:34:39)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: While in the helicopter, Alan's eyes do not align with the location of the Dreadnoughtus. Alan is looking to his far right before the helicopter even approaches the dinosaur and it is shown across the front of the screen. Alan's eyes then stay fixed straight ahead (even after passing the dinosaur), giving the impression he's looking at the dinosaur, but he would have needed to keep turning his neck to the right as the helicopter flew past in order to keep it in sight. (00:35:14)

Suggested correction: It's a common movie trope. The two things aren't happening in sequential order. They're happening at the same time. Alan isn't looking before the helicopter approaches the dinosaur...you're seeing the inside of the helicopter as it approaches and passes the dinosaur. They're happening at the same time.

Other mistake: Maisie rides her bike down the snow-covered hill, but when she stops in front of the cabin there is no snow in or on the tire treads and the tires look dry. (00:12:23)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: After Owen gets a lasso around the neck of the Parasaurolophus and is pulling on the rope, the noose loosens when it should remain taut. Also, the knot was in the center-front of the dino's neck and should have stayed there, but it somehow moved a couple inches clockwise. As Owen continued holding the rope tightly, the knot should have moved back to center-front or be too tight for the dinosaur to breathe. Next, based on the angle of the rope, the knot would be near the top of the neck. (00:08:41 - 00:09:30)

KeyZOid

Deliberate mistake: The decaying tree trunk would have more than likely broken into pieces and/or uprooted from the force exerted by the rope tethered to the pulling Parasaurolophus when Owen wrapped the rope around the trunk to stop the heavy-weight dino, but the trunk held up without even losing a shred of bark. (00:08:36)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Blue's baby was standing along her left side when Owen told Maisie to breathe. After a quick camera shift, the baby dinosaur was further back, standing on a log that was more perpendicular to Blue. There had not been any sound suggesting that the baby dinosaur had moved, but there were footstep sounds after the baby jumped off the log. (00:27:47)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Maisie set the front tire of her bike against the side railing of the steps to the cabin. It looked like it might have been sliding down when the camera shifted. Even if the bike did slide onto its side, it was at a different angle on the ground and too far away from where it had been propped. A little later when Owen and Claire where about to go up the stairs, the bike's rear tire was along the front of the steps, not side. (00:12:28 - 00:14:32)

Dashcam (2021)

Trivia: [Anecdotal Evidence Included] Most of the first 16 minutes were shot on Annie's iPhone, which was very unsteady and so difficult to watch that the viewer may develop dizziness, eye pain, and an irresistible impulse to stop watching. The "dialogue" may be painful to one's ears.

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The kitchen walls were distorted (at awkward angles), but Zero got to the house around 6:46 and talked to Shelly for a short period of time. The now-blurred clock on the wall appeared to advance to almost 6:47, keeping a reasonably approximate pace with the scene's progress. However, only about 30 seconds passed until Brandon came in, but the clock (no longer blurred) had jumped to 6:50. (00:28:00 - 00:28:50)

Wrong Place (2022)

Continuity mistake: The clock on the wall at Pee Wee's Pawn Shop advanced from about 12:00 to 12:05 when Frank was talking to Jerry, but it was back to around 12:01 after a few camera shifts. (00:05:59 - 00:06:24)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The old man bit JP's right arm about 8" above his wrist or a few inches below his elbow. When JP moved and sat down, the bite mark was a few inches lower (about 3" from his wrist). JP also had his right arm down at an angle when he was bit, but (when he had his arm bent upward at the elbow) there's no blood toward his wrist. (00:37:36)

Revealing mistake: At dinner, Chris said he is thinking of trying to escape. There is another table of diners behind him and a window can be seen in the background. The corner of the room can also be seen near the far right of the screen. JP and others turned to look at the window then the window was shown. But it could not have been the window that was behind Chris (there're no obstructions) and the kids' eyes would have been gazing toward the corner of the room. (00:31:19)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: The owl that JP saw was obviously "fake" (stuffed or CGI). Its nose was crooked and its puffy cheeks made it look like it had cheek filler injections; owls have flat faces. (00:32:50)

KeyZOid

Factual error: The owl that JP was looking at made a "who who" sound. The owl may appear to be a Snowy Owl (one many people are familiar with), but it is a Barn Owl. Barn owls are not "true" owls and it is the true owls who "give a hoot." Barn owls don't hoot; they make a screeching or squealing sound which can be piercing (and eerie to some people). (00:32:50)

Stupidity: Billy gave Skylar (a stranger at the diner who did a "dine and dash", not paying $12 for her food) a ride. She came across as suspicious, angry and "street smart." Billy nevertheless put his envelope containing $500 cash between the driver's and front passenger's seat where Skylar could see - and take - it. When they arrived at the Kite Skating site, Billy got out of his Jeep without even thinking about the money. (Skylar gave the money back, but it could have been kept). (00:19:19 - 00:20:35)

Revealing mistake: When Billy went outside onto the front porch (mostly not visible), there were tall plants in front of him and the porch's steps seemed to run parallel to the house, not perpendicular. After Billy got to his Jeep, there were no plants in front of the porch/steps and the porch's steps were perpendicular to the house. (00:07:40)

Continuity mistake: The coach stopped his truck along the field, parallel to Billy's Jeep but not as far up the driveway. When the coach was getting out of his truck, the truck was much closer to Billy's house, parked at an angle to Billy's Jeep, and there was a gazebo behind his truck instead of the field. When the coach was talking to Billy by his Jeep (which was also now closer to the house), the gazebo can be seen but the truck was no longer there or visible. The truck's position varied without being moved. (00:07:53 - 00:09:40)

Continuity mistake: When Billy is walking (from his front porch) to his Jeep, the ground is brown, and he has to take several steps to reach the cargo area. When the camera shifts to a front view of Billy by the driver's side door, and he says, "Hi, coach", the Jeep is parked too close to the house for Billy to have taken that many steps to reach it and the grass behind the Jeep is green (not brown). (00:07:45)
