Continuity errors in movies

[Tuffdisc]

Today I found tonnes of error in James Bond Thunderball and one error in Patriots games where Jack Ryan tell Samuel L Jackson "Don't turn on the lights" 1) first of all its the electricity 2) more importantly he doesn't move his mouth when he speaks :24:

Last night on Bad Ass, Danny Trejo plays a Vietnam vet. He specifically says that he served seven years in the US Army.

He puts on his old uniform he has the rank of a First Sergeant (E-8), and he has five service stripes on his sleeve, which as I recall, denotes 15 years of military service.

Also, E-8 after seven years, I think that's impossible, lol.

I don't know too many from within the same movie but the recent X-Men movies have painted an impossible sequence of events.

It's not really a continuity error, but it REALLY bugged me in the opening scene of American Gangster that you hear the radio traffic of an officer screaming officer down, shots fired, need help and the dispatcher is like "negative sir, we don't have anybody." Uhhhh...no.

It also bugged me that nobody batted an eye at a black gangster dating outside of his race in a movie that was supposed to be set in the early 70s or so.

I don't know too many from within the same movie but the recent X-Men movies have painted an impossible sequence of events.

I remember catching a big no no with Charles Xavier and the timeline when he was in the wheelchair.

That said, I still can't get my 6 year old son to realize that the FIRST Star Wars trilogy started in 1977 and it started 3 though 6. The whole Luke/Anakin/Darth/Jedi relationship thing confuses the snot out of him LOL Then throw the Clone Wars in there and WHAM.

My favourite is the car that drives across the background when Frodo and Sam are leaving the shire in the Fellowship of the Ring

Then there's people finding errors where there really aren't any. I was reading about the movie The Raven and someone pointed out on IMDb that Emily was playing a piano piece by Claude Debussy. The movie was set in 1849 and Debussy wasn't born until 1862. That's all fine and dandy except the piano piece she was playing was by Chopin, not by Debussy.

In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy's hair changes length when she is talking to the Scarecrow.

It's length changes at various points throughout the movie but it is most noticeable when she is with the Scarecrow
