49 Wildly Annoying TV And Movie Mistakes
My personal favorite? This scene from Twilight is where teenagers are clearly supposed to be playing Hackey-Sack, but are missing the Hackey-Sack. In fact, I love to watch the background actors in movies and TV shows, because oftentimes some nonsense is going on. Like this guy who forgot to play dead in Nobody. In the show American Primeval, you can spot a background character drop his spear and on. You can also spot other mistakes by looking in the background or off to the side. For example, in the most recent episode of The Last of Us, you can literally see a crew member hiding in the trees. It's always funny to spot crew members in movies and TV shows. In Saw 3D, you can see a crew member flicking blood on a character. You can also see a crew member in this scene in the Oscar-winning Return of the King. In this episode of Gunsmoke, you can see a crew member's modern shoe in the upper left corner. In the background of John Wick 3, you can see a person in one of the barn stalls to the left controlling the horse. In Stargate, you can see the whole crew in Kurt Russell's glasses. Sometimes you can see the actual camera in movies and TV scenes. You can see a camera rig on the right side in this scene from The Naked Gun. And you can see a camera reflection in this scene from The King of Comedy. You can actually see the camera in this scene from Troy. Some mistakes are just hilariously obvious. This is how a character disables a bomb in Unthinkable. And in this shot from X-Men, you can see the screws in Wolverine's claws. Some of the jurors in Daredevil: Born Again are completely replaced. In this scene from Resident Evil, the character is using the notepad app to video call. This is less obvious, but it feels like a big oversight given that in Wicked, Elphaba very dramatically breaks the patio window. However, a few scenes later, just before Fiyero arrives, the glass isn't cracked. A lot of other errors have to do with continuity. In this scene from The Four Seasons, the table goes from empty to covered in drinks to having a single tray on it between shots. Maddie's sweater completely changes between shots in this scene from Sonic the Hedgehog 3. The bullet holes in the Terminator's jacket disappear within seconds in this scene from Terminator 2: Judgement Day. The bullet wound is clearly in the center of Tye's forehead in The Bricklayer — but later on, it's above her eyebrow. This one from Two is even more obvious. Check out the mirror between shots and the very different cracks. It keeps flashing between them, too, making it even more obvious. The keys change color multiple times between shots in Friday Night Dinner. In X-Men Origins: Wolverine, this woman's tongs change into a spatula, then back to tongs. In The King of Queens, Carrie goes from scooping mashed potatoes to picking up chicken with a fork between shots. The towel John is using to dry a glass changes colors between shots in Jurassic Park. In Avengers: Endgame, when Tony returns Cap's shield, it's obvious they shot at different times of day, considering the shadows. In Daredevil: Born Again, Matt puts his pants on backwards, but soon after, they're the right way forward. Speaking of Daredevil: Born Again, there are no flowers in the center of the table as Kingpin and Vanessa eat. Then at the end of the scene, there's a huge bouquet. The shape of the glass on Yon Rogg's ship changes between shots in Captain Marvel. You can spot it better here. This one might take a more eagle-eyed viewer, but in this scene from Fatal Attraction, you can see the headphone cord switch the side it's on. Credits mistakes also take an eagle-eyed viewer, but some are pretty egregious. They literally spelled Keira Knightley's name wrong in The Phantom Menace. Sinners is pretty much a perfect film, but it does misspell San Rafael in the credits. It always takes me out of a film when you realize something is straight-up fake. Like this scene from Predator, where this woman's hands clearly are not actually bound. This guy's breathing tube isn't even connected in this scene from Elementary, though in a different shot, it is. Alex's hair clearly isn't actually stuck in this scene from Modern Family. It easily falls away as her head moves. You can see Bruce Willis' flesh-colored socks in this scene from Die Hard. Factual errors are always annoying because they feel so easy to get wrong. In Mr. and Mrs. Smith, there's a notification from the Bronx Zoo about Fiona the actually lives at the Cincinnati zoo. Showing the Dow Jones dropping by 500% in G20 is laughable. Cars having no headrests in movies (usually so they can fit cameras to shoot from the back) always annoy me. You can see this mistake in action in Sicario: Day of the Soldado — where the headrests actually appear again. Sometimes, it's just SO obvious something is shot in the LA area. In this shot from Prison Break, which is supposed to take place in Wyoming, you can see palm trees, the ocean, and a pier. There's no way to avoid shooting period pieces in modern locations, but it definitely takes you out of it to see modern things on-camera. In the background of this shot from The Last of the Mohicans, you can literally see buses. Modern cars in period pieces are fairly common, actually. This is from The Highwaymen, which is set in the '30s. You can also see modern cars in this scene from Dexter: Original Sin, set in 1991. The background in the train windows changes instantaneously in this scene from France. The shot doesn't even change; just the background does. You can see it better here. In Rudy, during the Notre Dame/Georgia Tech match, you can see someone holding up a Boston College flag. Blade appears to disappear between shots in Deadpool & Wolverine. And both Wolverine and Blade appear to kill the same woman. And finally, in Passenger FBI agent who gets shot has blood on his face before he even gets shot.

Fans devastated by Saw XI update just six months before planned release
Fans of the Saw horror film franchise are responding to reports that the latest instalment, Saw XI, is unlikely to meet its September release date and could even be cancelled altogether. Saw XI was initially scheduled for release in September 2024 but this was later pushed to September 2025. Lionsgate confirmed Saw XI in December 2023, shortly after the release of Saw X in September that year. Producer Oren Koules told SFX Magazine at the time that the sequel would be a follow-up to Saw X, as 'Cecilia is still alive and Tobin and Shawnee are in a foreign country still'. 'So that, to me, would be the natural place to take at least the next one,' he said. Kevin Greutert, who directed Saw VI, Saw 3D and Saw X, was set to return for Saw XI, as were the stars Tobin Bell, reprising his role as John Kramer or the Jigsaw, Shawnee Smith as Amanda Young and Costas Mandylor as detective lieutenant Mark Hoffman. The newest film, however, appears to have been 'totally dead' for almost a year, Bloody Disgusting reported, adding that fighting between producers was to blame. 'It's totally dead. It's 100 per cent over. Almost a year now,' an unnamed source told the outlet. 'Everything went sideways in January 2024,' the source added, 'the producers started fighting'. One producer tried to 'plow forward' with the film, the report said, but the other 'put up roadblocks' and Lionsgate 'didn't have anyone to smooth over the disagreement'. 'Greed and ego won,' the source said. The Hollywood Reporter carried a similar update, with more information from Saw XI screenwriter Patrick Melton, who also wrote Saw IV, Saw V, Saw VI, and Saw 3D. Melton, along with writing partner Marcus Dunstan, said he turned in a draft of the script for Saw XI in spring 2024, but hasn't 'heard anything' since then. 'We haven't heard anything since May. It's stalled at a managerial level. It has nothing to do with the creative or anything else. There's higher-level things at play,' Melton said. 'Saw XI may or may not be made, but we have a very timely story in it, and I hope it gets made just because of that. It taps into the same themes of Saw VI, where you're a citizen, you feel angry and frustrated with something, you feel like you can't do anything, and John Kramer's going to do it. 'The reason it's held up is just, there's inter-squabbling between producers and Lionsgate. They just can't quite get on the same page.' The franchise launched in 2004 and, after grossing $104m (£80m) on a budget of just $1m (£770,573), spawned multiple sequels, the last of which, Jigsaw, was released in 2017. A spin-off starring Chris Rock, titled Spiral: From the Book of Saw, was released in 2021. Fans of the longtime gory horror franchise are understandably upset, especially considering Saw X went on to gross $125m (£96m) worldwide on a budget of $13m (£10m) and opened to positive reviews from critics. In The Independent's review of Saw X, critic Clarisse Loughrey said: 'Ten films in and it's a routine we're so intimately familiar with that it'd be hard to call any element of Saw X original but returning director Kevin Greutert knows what'll satisfy his audience: a few buckets of blood and the gag-inducing sound of crunching bone. Here, they'll get exactly what they want.' Responding to reports that the film's production has stalled, one fan wrote on X: 'That sucks. I fell in love with the franchise after seeing Saw X. I couldn't believe how good it was, so I went back and watched all of the movies. It's now my second favorite horror franchise behind Halloween.' SAW 11 has been cancelled so what's the point in living anymore. goodbye cruel world — jas :3 (@dcbatsy) March 17, 2025 'I hear Saw 11 might be cancelled. I was really looking forward to this movie, it actually is one of my most anticipated movies of the year. It's already been delayed, as it was supposed to come out last year,' said another. Talk about FUMBLING the bag. Saw X put the franchise back on the map. And at an all time high too. 11 should've been a no-brainer. — Lewis (Taylor's Version) (@lpowell092020) March 17, 2025 'Talk about FUMBLING the bag. Saw X put the franchise back on the map.
