With the 4/5 date fast approaching can anyone remember any points in the movies where mistakes were made... I remember one where sam threw his disc then we see him hanging on the edge with it on his back during disc battle 2......what about......

I don't really like knowing about these things for movies I love for a while, so I'd think others might feel the same. I'll put mine in spoiler tags:

This thread could be interesting. I think I might rather know where all the hidden references and goodies are, though, since bloopers can kind've spoil a movie for me a bit

Mouse Over To Read: - I've heard from a friend that Sam refers to his dad as "Flynn" at one point (maybe when calling out for him toward latter half of the movie)... which seems odd, since he should say, "Dad," right? - Sam took the baton from his fellow derezzed lightcyclist's hand and put it in a sheath on his leg. When Clu removed Sam from his lightcycle, why didn't Sam use the extra baton to make a new cycle to fight Clu from his bike rather than on-foot? - For Sam to get into his dad's lab he has to go through a maze to get there, but in the computer world he seemingly pops out of Flynn's Arcade like the lab was right next to the main entrance of the arcade. (Seems like this could be a little continuity blip.) - How is Clu and crew able to get to Flynn's hideout when their vehicles supposedly can't get there earlier in the movie? - In the early parts of the movie, does Clu not know where Flynn's hideout is? I wasn't sure. If he doesn't, how does he NOT know since Flynn's hideout lights up like a lighbulb on the dark cliff wall? And if he does know, then why doesn't he just fly over there like he does later in the movie? - I think young Sam has brown eyes but older Sam has blue eyes. This thread could be interesting.

I agree! Goodies are the best! I think there was a thread of that awhile back, not sure if it's still around or not.
Anywho, I did notice most of those posted bloopers myself. :/ I guess that's what I get for seeing it once a week though

DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!! DISC WARS!!!

How about this one, minor as it may be:

When Sam goes to Flynn's in the real world and flips on the breaker switch, he switches it on from inside to out, or from right to left. Every electrical panel I've ever seen, new or old, always switches from left to right, or outside to in. ( I did commercial electrical construction work for 4 years. )

Sam reaches back behind him and put the extra baton in the back of the seat, that little space behind his lower back and the segmented peices that go across the rider's back.

When Sam is thrown from his bike, the baton probably flew out from the back of the rider's seat as it fliped and then exploded and derezzed.. so he no longer had it anymore...

Or maybe they just flipped the shot, like they built the set opposite of how it was in the first movie for budgetary reasons and then flipped all of the shots filmed there? Sort of plausible, right? Were there electrical panels like that in the 80's?

I don't have trouble accepting the events in the film. The thread is to help identify possible bloopers and continuity errors. That doesn't necessarily mean I have troubles accepting the events or think the movie sucks. If there are errors or issues, does it mean I feel or wish they could've done a better job to avoid the errors? Sure.

If you paused the film when Sam got knocked off and saw the baton derezz, good for you. We'll be able to do the same in a week or so after we get the Blu-Ray. Until then, you'll have to endure our recollection as we try to remember events and situations from a film we saw 2 months+ ago. I don't remember the tiny baton derezzing, but then again, the movie screen was huge and there were a lot of other things to look at on the screen. Sam taking the time to put the baton in his holster is just asking for it to be used at some point later on in the film in some fashion. Since it didn't get used, it seems odd that they would've put that in there. If it gets derezzed, that's good enough for me.

I'm guessing you folks are having trouble with these things because you haven't seen the film at home yet?

Well, in all fairness, we don't have the luxury to pause, rewind, fast forward, take screen caps of ever frame in the movie, view the whole screen at once without having to move our heads from left to right and back again, and play in slow motion like you, as you know. Nor have we taken photos of a large number of frames of the film like you. So, I'm willing to bet that would be part of it.

How did you get your copy of the Blu-Ray before its release date?
