When Harry and Sally left Chicago for New York, they’re driving north on Lake Shore Drive out of the city. That’s the long way around! I guess they didn’t want to film them going past Gary.
And Christopher Reeve drives to Mackinac Island in Somewhere in Time. There’s no bridge or car ferry to get him there, even if cars were allowed on the island. Interestingly enough, the book that’s based on was set at the Hotel Del Coronado. But the hotel wouldn’t shut down for filming, and the Grand Hotel was fine with that as filming as it was pre-season. Bit of trivia!

Did you see them? I didn’t.
Yes, take a look. They’re on their right hip.

We were both distracted when Greta Lee runs into her NYC apartment in Past Lives eager to video chat and doesnt shut the door of the apartment. I couldn’t really watch properly until a couple shots later when the angle shows the door firmly shut. But not shutting doors is a pet peeve of mine in movies - I mean would anyone ever enter an apartment and not shut the door??

For some reason, I think it was a character in The Help.

I must say, I’m impressed at many of the goofs folks have caught. I used to look at IMDB for them.
The only one that I’ve personally caught is the scene in Remember the Titans where a touchdown is scored from the wrong direction (can’t remember if it was an interception or what), but the Titans get the points when, with the direction it was run, it should have been a safety instead.

There is a scene in Oceans 11 where Brad Pitt is eating shrimp cocktail out of a coupe glass and when it cuts back he is holding a plate.
And there is, of course, Richard Gere’s tie in Pretty Woman.
I think that was Game of Thrones?

What I notice most is when two people are engaged in conversation and the camera shot changes. A lot of times, all of a sudden one person is looking up instead of down, or something like that. I’m surprised it happens so often.

Speaking of pretty woman, there’s the scene where Julia Roberts is eating her breakfast and a croissant magically transforms into a pancake.

I don’t think I ever caught that one.
This is not so much an editing fail as a factual fail:
The representation of Interpol in movies is almost always wrong
- Interpol has no jurisdiction anywhere – they cannot arrest anyone
- Interpol does not have its own police/detectives/agents
Interpol is an info-gathering and disseminating agency whose mission is to support law enforcement. They themselves are not law enforcement.

In Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, the damage to the port side Enterprise is shown on the starboard side in a later scene. The damage is also different from that shown in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, when the damage occurred.

The Wizard of Oz, which I have seen many, many times. In the scene where the tree is throwing apples at Dorothy and the scarecrow, she’s wearing black sneakers and not the ruby slippers.
