Awareness picture

Continuity mistake: Front passenger, Ian, adjusts the rearview mirror to watch the approaching police car. Almost instantly, the front view of Vicente driving shows the rearview mirror angled towards him, and Ian's hand is not near the mirror to have readjusted it that quickly. The same thing happens a second time. (00:04:10)

Continuity mistake: Lucia's hair goes from disheveled to styled during the time it takes for Pia to say (over the phone), "You've gone almost a decade without a single, serious relationship, Lucia." Moreover, Lucia is already applying mascara. It takes longer than 5 seconds to style/fix one's long hair. (00:01:23)

The Burial picture

Character mistake: Educated, intelligent, lawyer Willie Gary tells Mame, "I have this reoccurring dream... [prosecuting a case against Johnnie Cochran]." It should be "recurring dream" - keeps happening repeatedly (over and over) as opposed to just happening again. (00:51:50)

Tales of the Fantastic picture

Continuity mistake: The remote-controlled truck heads towards a long, square-shaped wall (or landscape edging), about as high as the truck. As the truck gets closer, the wall becomes a partially buried long pipe. The truck more easily goes over the less-exposed round pipe. (00:07:38)

Continuity mistake: Morgan and Sophie take far too many steps to get into the tunnel, then take many more, which take them past the man on the left, but the man is still ahead of them. After they take more steps and are past him, they are back at the tunnel entrance. (00:23:18 - 00:23:50)

The Portable Door picture

Continuity mistake: The position of the pamphlet display on the side table changes a few times after Paul sits on the couch. The pamphlets are near the upper right-hand corner of the table before Paul sits, and then the pamphlets are behind the lamp, towards the rear-center. The pamphlets are in the upper left-hand corner, then suddenly in the upper right-hand corner (where they start) when Paul removes one from the display. The location and angle of the lamp shade also vary. (00:09:00 - 00:09:25)

Rent-a-Groom picture

Continuity mistake: While Rob is talking to Tracey at lunch, he doesn't eat any of his salad, but its arrangement and contents vary.

A little later, there is a third cherry tomato on his plate (near the middle-top) and lettuce/greens appear on the left side of his plate. (00:54:00)

More Round and Round mistakes

Continuity mistake: In the rear view of the picture frames on the desk, the frames are closer together and aligned in a somewhat semi-circular pattern, but are spread out and staggered in the front view. At first, it appears a gap in time can possibly explain the rearranged frames (Rock is opening mail), but a rear view while he is still reading his mail shows the frames arranged like they originally were. (00:03:25 - 00:03:51)
