Goofs
|
Continuity: The position of the door changes several times in the mansion when Jimmy first enters it and looks around. Continuity: Jimmy's glass while having a drink with the blonde girl in her father's house. Revealing mistakes: When Jimmy and Spencer do the Batman slide down the cable at the ballpark, you can see Jimmy hanging from the hidden safety cable after Spencer drops to the ground at the end of their slide. Continuity: When Jimmy is first checking out Walter's living room, and the TV is showing the news story about the prison strike, the announcer says "Let's talk to the Warden, Mr. Frank Toole, here at the Milton K. Prochek Correctional Facility". The announcer then starts out with, "Mr. Prochek..." and is never corrected by the Warden, or anyone else, even though the Warden's name is shown on his desk and his name tag as "Frank Toolman". Continuity: After diving into the pool, when she's in the jacuzzi with Spencer, Jewel's hair is dry and styled. CHAR: When Jimmy is first checking out the Filofax, he finds a list of 'power words' he reads out FIRST RATE, PHENOMENAL, SUPERLATIVE, BENEVOLENT, but 'phenomenal' clearly is not on the list. Continuity: Disappearing shaving cream on Spencer's face after Elizabeth comes into the bathroom and embraces him in their first scene. Fact errors: When Elizabeth Barnes calls Spencer/Jimmy at the mansion, Jewel tells him that Elizabeth is calling. He is splashing underwater when she tells him, and he tells Jewel to say that he's busy after coming up for air. When your head is underwater, and the water is splashing, you can't hear anything. Therefore, he couldn't possibly hear Jewel tell him who was calling. Continuity: Scene with Sakamoto and Connors at restaurant meeting. Connors takes cigarette out of case before Sakamoto walks in. When she gets up to greet Sakamoto and then sits back down, she reaches for another cigarette. Then after they cut back to her, she already has it lit. But you never hear her lighter click. |
