Continuity: The gum on Principal Johnson's globe changes position. Continuity: When in the barrels at the amusement park, Robert's hands change position. SYNC: Sheldon's voice does not match his lips during the first wide shot at the fraternity gambling party. Fact errors: Objects in a fish tank are magnified but when a model space ship flies through a fish tank here it appears smaller. CHAR: Robert Mandan's character is called "Walter Coolidge" in the film, but during the credits his character is called "Walter Johnson." Fact errors: Barney uses cheese as food for the mice, however it's a fact that constant amounts of cheese is actually bad for mice. Crew: When Barney first discovers his ability in the lab, he lifts up a broken piece of glass by looking at it. The black wires used to lift it can be seen clearly when the close-up is occurring. Same thing goes for the dust pan except the wire is clear and it is seen when the wide shot is occurring. Continuity: When Barney is lifted by a bully in the park, in the side shot, he is leaning against a post, when it cuts to a front shot of hum, the post behind him is nowhere to be seen. |
