Other mistake: In the movie, the mission takes place on the Space Shuttle Discovery. In the scene with the shuttle on the crawler, coming out of the Vehicle Assembly Building, Atlantis is pictured instead of Discovery. (01:39:48)
Continuity mistake: A fork in Grace's square bowl props against the corner that is closest to her glass of wine. Grace holds a magazine with both hands. When Grace reaches for her wine, the bowl is at a different angle and the fork is gone. (00:08:00)
Continuity mistake: The table runner covers the corner of the nightstand and extends 1-2" across the front side. There are notebooks on the opposite side of the shelf below the tabletop. A side view shows the table runner a couple more inches across the front and drapes outward. Only the far corner of the green notebook is visible, but the table runner cannot obstruct that much of a view of the shelf. (00:03:35)
Factual error: Stoney sets his lit marijuana cigarette on the metal garbage can lid and walks away. The cigarette is still lit and does not burn down after 3+ minutes of screen time. A lit marijuana cigarette left unattended burns a short time and forms ashes before extinguishing itself. (00:55:35 - 00:58:50)
Continuity mistake: When the girls are vandalising Jeff's house, when they're almost done, Josie and Isabel are in the van, almost kissing but then the bomb goes off. A second after the bomb, the van is empty and both girls are on the street.
Deliberate mistake: Candy tells her radio listeners, "Our phone number is 201-5137." Assuming the radio station's reception extends beyond more than a small geographic area, an area code is needed for callers outside of the immediate area. On Ellie's cell phone, Mary's number shows up with an area code. (00:05:55 - 00:07:20)
Continuity mistake: Tree foliage is inconsistent, changing several times within the first minute (Fall-Winter-Summer-Fall-Summer). Tree foliage even varies with which side of the road is being shown, such as Winter leafless trees between houses on Liam's side but Summer green leaves on Breanna's passenger side of the car (followed by Winter leafless trees when they get to the bank's parking lot). The inconsistencies persist to the end, with Fall-Winter foliage in the aerial view but Summer at street level. (00:00:20 - 00:09:27)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the stampede, as the barriers fall, a woman can be seen falling with them. The camera cuts to an overhead view and she's no longer there as the crowd surges forward.
Factual error: The thick chain-links - between both sides of the driver's door - do not prevent the door from being completely closed (but ought to). (00:13:55 - 00:14:33)
Continuity mistake: The pony is let into the small pen/corral, and there are two stacked bales of hay. The pony apparently knocks over one bale while eating, but the bales are suddenly stacked again. (The inconsistency persists into the next morning when the bales are side-by-side, or someone feeds the pony and rearranges the bales.) (00:02:57 - 00:04:04)
Continuity mistake: Tony is seated at a table with a green-covered book, clipboard, and laptop in front of him. Parker stands across the table from Tony and has some papers in front of him. Parker shoves a paper across the table towards the clipboard and laptop. The camera quickly shifts to Parker, now seated at the table. The paper Parker pushes across the table is not there and Tony's laptop is closer to the clipboard. The empty wine bottles and book are in different positions. (00:03:42)
Continuity mistake: The front view of the desk shows a few neatly arranged and parallel piles of papers, but the view from the desk's chair shows the piles non-aligned and the highest pile (thick file folder) more askew than the others. None of the men are touching the papers. (00:07:30)
Continuity mistake: The covered object (storage container or pet carrier?) is at an angle to and extends past Bob's desk, but is against the side of the desk when "Binky" the rabbit jumps onto it, as well as when Binky jumps from it onto the floor. (00:12:53 - 00:13:47)
Continuity mistake: The wall clock is at approximately 10:27 and advances to about 10:43, then returns to 10:27. During Keith's 5-second countdown for Michelle to go back on air, the clock jumps from 10:27 to 10:43. (00:01:50 - 00:03:07)
Continuity mistake: "Gramms" (Maggie Westmoreland) lifts her cup of coffee using both hands and takes a sip. By the time she lowers her cup to the table, her glass of water goes from over half-full to less than half-full. Nobody refills the glass, but it is back to over half-full. Thereafter, the level of water in the glass alternates after almost every view of Tracey. (00:02:05)
Continuity mistake: The cases of "Gatorade" next to Trevor's left side are stacked to his waist. Trevor moves the case that is under Megan's elbow. When Trevor turns around, the cases next to him are instantly stacked to his chest. (00:09:25)
