I have a couple more for you if you can find ‘em.

In X-men, I think it’s 2 or 3. I could be wrong…whichever one has Nightcrawler….there’s a scene where he “teleports” below a floor to rescue a group of kids being held hostage. You see Nightcrawler & Jean-Grey, then a shot of the kids reaching up…but in the background of the shot with the kids you can CLEARLY see Nightcrawler trying to hide in the shadows…then you see him again up above the kids….then he teleports down and brings the kids up.

Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls…towards the end…he’s doing his big “I solved this case and here’s all the evidence” speech…and there’s a chess set with all the pieces set up on the board. One cut away…then back to the chess set and all the pieces are gone with no mention as to how or why or even where they went.

Another one I’ve noticed is in Lord Of The Rings, two towers, when Pippin and Mary are taken by orcs, and then the soldiers attack the band of orcs. At one point, while Pippins hands are still bound and he is crawling away, a horse rears up and Pippin turns on his back and screams (looking from the horses point of view I guess) at this point, Pippins hands are magically untied.
Don’t get me wrong, I love LOTR, I’ve seen them all 16 times, and it doesn’t take away from the movie, Its just entertaining to find the little things.
Its kind of like that director (Alfred Hitchcock I think) that put himself in each of his movies at least once. Peter Jackson did it too.

I happen to be an AVID editor and I can tell you from years of experience that it is nearly impossible to have 100% continuity on a film. Editors choose shots not based on continuity, rather on best take. For example: There is a shot that contains, among other things, a specific object. The director shoots with the object in the shot and decides not to use it in the shot for whatever reason (composition, color, lighting, safety to the actor, taste, etc.). When that shot gets to the edit room the editor might feel that the actors take with the said object in the shot is the best take of the bunch, so he convinces the director to let him used the shot with the object. The take by the actor will always take president over the continuity of the shot.

Sometimes choices are made to purposely change continuity. Not all film makers like their films pristine. Much like a painter purposely making his work ‘rough’ to create a secondary feel and atmosphere, sometimes film makers and editors will re-shoot cut-aways to be less continuous.

I know your just a fan and judging by your writing style, you’re not a journalist either, but maybe do some research into the film making process and you might learn some of the lesser known edit room tricks and decisions.

They really need to learn the difference between “mistake”, and “lighting”.

The whole movie is fake. You guys are idiots, or perhaps more accurately you guys are scientists with nothing to study but lies. Of course you can find the flaws in the fictional movie because it isn’t real – it’s one big fake lie that most of you believe in foolishly. I would suggest you spend your time analyzing something that is not fake, or at least do it from a perspective of understanding and knowing that you’re looking at a lie and complaining that the lie isn’t true enough.

Just throwing this out there…the Harry Potter one where harry switches sides of the table is two different scenes. I’m pretty sure the first one where he sits next to ron is the end-of-year feast, and when he’s on the opposite side it’s the beginning feast.
