Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: After Wendy admits to being Red Handed Jill, Peter holds his blade to Wendy's throat. In the first close-up Peter grasps the hilt so the sharp curved edge of the blade points towards the knuckles of his fingers. In the second close-up his hand grasps the hilt so that the sharp edge points towards the palm of his hand. (This has nothing to do with how his wrist is turned.) (01:05:30)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: Peter flies in and tells everyone of the new pirate Red Handed Jill and as he says, "She's just a storyteller," the small piece of watermelon, that looks as if it's been hacked already, is visible on the table. Then when he says, "I shall run her through!" he slams his blade into a large wedge of watermelon - its shape is very different (before the blade hits it of course). Other food on the table differs in consecutive shots within this scene as well. (01:04:30)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: Hook sneaks into Peter's hideout while Peter sleeps in order to kill him. In the first close-up Hook tries to reach Peter, who's lying down, as Peter mumbles in his sleep. In Peter's second close-up he is in a completely different position as the poison drops into the water. As he wakes with a start in his third close-up, Peter is lying in the same position as the first close-up. (01:10:45)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: After Wendy sees John, Michael and the Lost Boys tied up she gasps in a wide shot, in which the pirates are spread out all around. A pirate puts a gag at her mouth and in the next close-up three pirates gather just behind the kneeling boys as Hook walks by to talk to Wendy with other pirates gathered round. In the next wide shot there are no pirates directly behind the boys and everyone is positioned the same way as the previous wide shot, those three specific pirates are in three different areas. Other pirates are in completely different spots as well between the close-up and following wide shot. (01:10:00)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Wendy walks the plank she stands at the edge and as the camera faces her the brilliant sunlight from behind her highlights the plank and casts a long bright shadow in front of her, contrary to the dark wood plank in the overhead shots. (01:20:10)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: After Wendy sews the shadow onto Peter the light in the nursery brightens. The items in the room cast their own shadows, for example, the clock and light fixture over Michael's beds. These shadows change drastically in the following shots, until they fly off to Neverland. (00:16:45)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Tink flies into the nursery and zips around searching for Peter's shadow she flies into Nana's house and in this shot Michael's bed is more than a foot away from the nightstand. In the next overhead shot Michael's bed is much closer to the nightstand. Michael's blanket differs considerably as well. (00:12:25)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: In the nursery, behind Michael's and John's beds there are many small soldiers and horses perched on the chair rail (decorative molding). The position/amount of these soldiers and horses differ significantly in consecutive shots within the scene before they leave for Neverland and also within the scene when they eventually return. (00:12:25 - 01:35:25)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: After the children return home, when Mr. Darling welcomes the Lost Boys to the family the boys all jump on him and then Michael pours the treasure onto the floor. In these and the rest of the shots the small red rug is in the middle of the floor, a completely different position than the previous shots, where it was under the table. (01:38:45)

Peter Pan (2003)

Continuity mistake: When the children return home, in a wide shot as they look around the nursery while their mother sleeps in the chair, the table's two legs are positioned near the outer edge of the small red rug. When Mrs. Darling walks out of the room the table is pushed farther back, close to the bookcase. The little rug near the corner curio changes between shots as well. (01:35:15)

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: After Aragorn's coronation, he and Arwen approach Frodo, Sam, Pippin and Merry. When they all bow to the Hobbits, in the close-ups the people surrounding the Hobbits are very close. However, in the overhead wide shot there is a large gap between the Hobbits and the crowd. (02:57:10)

Continuity mistake: Now a resident at Sunnyvale, when Evan looks under his bed for his journals, in the shot from under the mattress the blood stains that appear on his white tee differ from the stain in the shots before and after.

Continuity mistake: After little Kayleigh picks up the blockbuster, older Evan is now at Sunnyvale Institution. The blankets are not tucked under the mattress, then they are tucked when he gets out of bed, and in the shot from under the bed, as he searches for his journals, the blankets hang down to the floor, yet in the next shot they are not.

Super Grover

Continuity mistake: When armless Evan goes back, the journal, cereal bowl and OJ are visible in a close-up and in the next shot young Evan rushes away from the table. The position of the journal is quite different in the two shots. (01:44:45)
