I notice movie mistakes quite often, such as different clothing in the same scene,items missing or moved etc. Do you notice any??

I will give you one of the funniest of all time. If you watch the dramatic charge scene in Spartacus you can have some fun by counting the number of wrist watches and sneakers you can count on both the Romans and the slave army. About 2000 years too early guys. A great moment in "oops" movie history.

300? I love that move a lot! really? wrist watches and sneakers? ha ha ha... that is a good one! I never really noticed that in the scene! I will try to see if it is all there tonight! A good excuse to watch the movie all over again!

I am forever picking up continuity errors in films and TV shows. Sometimes you see a scene where a glass is half full, in the next shot it is completely full. Those things drize me crazy. There's a scene in "Good Will Hunting" in a lecture theatre where the blackboards are in different positions in various shots. It's so obvious to me that I don't know how it was missed when the film was released.

As a screenwriter I usually notice plot hole issues first...and editing errors within the story...sometimes big OOOPS ruin movies for me...like the movie NARC

Yes, sometimes I notice things like that too. Sometimes they are really big and obvious mistakes too, and it drives me nuts cause I can't believe they wouldn't notice something like that! lol

yes I notice them all the time! It can be so distracting sometimes lol We went and saw The Reaping at the weekend, and early on in the movie Hillary Swank's character loses her bracelet...then near the end she's wearing it again. Obviously the continuity person isn't doing their job very well, maybe I could have their job? :) If you go to IMDB they have a little section for each movie about all the goofs in the movies, quite interesting, I doubt there's ever been a movie made that didn't have at least one mistake in it!

LOL omg ya! I am forever noticing little screw-ups and it is such a habit with me and has been for so long (plus I HAVE TO point it out to anyone else in the room LOL) that my kids have picked up my habit....in all honesty its a good thing becuase it says they are paying attention to detail which is a handy habit to have IMO LOL..I think my husband gets a little sick of it though ;-)

yes i do notice it sometimes. movie mistakes quite often happens on action movies. maybe because action movies are difficult to shoot that they tend to forget about the small details.

I hardly spot any mistakes in the movies I watched but I enjoy reading about the mistakes made by them. I will then watch the movie again to spot those mistakes. It's another perspective in watching that movie

I do notice them sometimes. I was watching a movie one night with my hubby and the car had been wrecked. When they showed it again it was in perfect condition.
