Watched the new series primeval America the other day. There's a scene where they are trekking on horse thought trees and snow.. As the last horse comes into shot you can see a guy in sunglasses and full winter clothing stood next to the tree |

I don’t know whether you class it as a blooper, but the TV show, 24 with Jack Bauer, is apparently based on a 24 hour day and yet the clock they show which appears every now and again is always in 12 hour mode |

"Name some of your memorable film bloopers like
1 - a Ferrari in the background of the chariot race in Ben Hur
2 - gandalf wearing a watch"
Surely Gandalf didn't wear a watch! Wizards are neither early or late. They arrive precisely when they intended to.

"In the old Arnie film, Commando. A car gets its side smashed up but when it drives away there isn't a scratch on it."
In the same movie when the buildings are exploding the cardboard soldiers standing in front just fall over |

The compressed gas ram used to flip the chariot in gladiator showing clearly underneath it
Starbucks Coffee cup on the head table in game of thrones

The irony is, David Fincher actually did this in the film itself; there is a fleeting flash of a cock right at the end before the credits roll.
My vote for bloopers go to; the stormtrooper cracking his head on the door frame in Star Wars, and the whole run of them in the end credits of 'Cannonball Run' |

There's a difference between a blooper and annoying continuity mistakes,the latter people get payed a lot of money to ensure that these things don't happen yet time and time again.
He's wearing a tie,then he's not then ties back on again.
Drinking a drink glass is full then empty then full,half full full empty......
As already pointed out car crashes smashed up,then it's perfect then smashed then perfect grrrrrr
That really ruins a film for me you get immersed in a film then something stupid happens and it spoils the whole thing.

This one's more continuity than blooper. But in Independence Day when Will Smith pulls the alien through the desert it alternates repeatedly between long shot and up close. In the long shot it's a sky full of clouds, up close it's a beautiful clear blue sky. It amuses me every time |

Not necessarily film bloopers but the outakes from Afterlife/Derek/Extras (especially with David Earl in them) are hilarious.
Film. Carl Weathers in Predator when his arm is blown off but clearly held behind his back. |

These always annoy me and once seen cannot be unseen..
one that really annoyed me, the scenes in Legend, the Krays film, where they’re at Francis’s flat.. it’s the 60’s and some of the windows are brand new UPVC double glazing. Honestly wouldn’t have taken much to frame them out in preference to the older windows.

Excalibur, Lancelot going from sword to club in the final battle 
Also, not really a blooper, but the 1001 inaccuracies in Dam Busters, yet a certain minority get triggered over one word being omited from any potential remake. |

Continuity in films/TV really bugs me.
There's a scene in Friends, where Rachel is sitting at the kitchen table, crying over someone she's just split up with. One moment, she's holding the end of the kitchen roll, which is hanging on the side, next shot, it's all neatly rolled up in the background, then the third shot, she's holding the paper again...
I was watching a film the other day and depending on the shot, the shoulder placement of the girl's dress changed depending on whether the shot was from behind her, on in front of her.
The taxi that almost runs over Dustin Hoffman in 'Midnight Cowboy' was unplanned though. His line "I'm walking here" was ad-libbed, as he wasn't expecting it, but they kept it in the film. |

Think that film holds the record for most gaffers, sure I read that somewhere
Kelly's Heroes has a cracker where a studio assistant is standing holding a clipboard knowing he's in the shot but can't move |

Probably one of the most famous movie gaffs is the continuity mistake in Carry on Camping.
When the girls are doing a morning group physical exercise class and Barbra Windsor is doing the arm flinging chest exercise in front of Kenneth Williams and
Hatty Jacques,NOT wearing a hat and as her bra bursts off and hits them,Hatty IS wearing a hat |

The same bit of chase is used 2or3 times, from different angles - downhill bit (the vw beetle turning right gives it away).  "
Yessss! ...that and the 23 consecutive downshifts! |

In the classic movie ' The Vikings'
The end scene....spoiler alert...
Where dozens of battle hardened Viking archers fire burning arrows to set fire to the boat carrying the
Corpse. Hardly any reach the boat, and some don't even reach the water.

The original Papillon with Steve McQueen was such a great film, but the ending where he was floating away from the island on his raft was terrible. You could clearly see the legs of frogmen treading water & holding the raft up  |

Troy - I remember watching the fight between Hector and Achilles and noticing lots of 'metal' armour rolling like rubber. Turns out they used quite a lot of rubber back then...apparently.
Gladiator - so many extras and mistakes, who knew blue jeans were so popular back in ancient Rome ?
Corrina, Corrina - While Corrina and her sister are talking on the sofa, Corrina's sister puts her arm behind Corrina on the back of the couch, but in the next shot, her hand is down by her side again and again she moves her arm up on the back of the couch in the exact same move. Stunningly obvious, I'm surprised noone noticed !
Not as surprised as when in the following shot her hand is back down once again and she moves it up again for a third time. 😂😂 |

"Raiders of the Lost Ark - when Indy thinks Marion's been killed and starts drinking whisky there's people milling around in jeans and T Shirts in the background, supposed to be a 1930s Arab bazaar"

Not exactly a blooper exactly but you can tell the line was changed in post.
In the chopper scene in Galaxy Quest Signoury Weavers Character says "Well Screw That" but that isn't what was said on set. |
