Now here: When Project satan hits the edge of the furnace in 'The Honking', he flips over.



Yet when we see him in the furnace a second later, he's right side up and melting!

In "Less than a Hero" when Leela and Fry are walking down the street they have the IKEA product that they are returning behind them (Below):



....but then during the actual "mugging" the product disapears (Below - that shot isn't that good but if you watch the episode you can see):

woops. Didn't realize that. I was only paying attention to the actual goof thread. silly me.

[Reply #687 on:]

Thanks for acknoledging my post.

[Reply #688 on:]

I've been away from this thread for a while, so i didn't notice.
That episode was aired yesterday and i see what you mean. The box does dissapear. Nice spot

[Reply #689 on:]

Sorry, dawoodz! I checked it out yesterday, too-nice catch.

[Reply #690 on:]

Thanks both,  --- Currently looking for more goofs

Inconsistencies, fresh, hopefully new inconsistencies...

That Guy is sitting on the only chair between the two women:


The guy talking in the previous pic disappered, along with the unoccupied chair:


Suddenly, there are two chairs between the women, one is occupied by the cave man...


I guess you would've seen the spear if the cave man had been in pic.1 already...

Good spot Laptop Moderator, heres a tiny mistake:

A shot of the slurm advertisment


A later shot of the slurm advertisment




Notice anything different with Slurms Mckenzine?

[Reply #693 on:]

I can't see the pic...

[Reply #694 on:]

Sorry about that, how about now?

[Reply #695 on:]

much better Thanks. good catch, man. I never would have noticed that...

[Reply #696 on:]

I'm sure they had signs in the future that could change facial expression....

[Reply #697 on:]

good spot dawoodz

Possibly. Although it's technically not canon, it is rather futuristic. But I would think that if the sign could do something like change its expression it could also say something. It looks like a regular old cardboard sign to me.

In "War is the H-word" in the first scene when Bender and Fry go to the till to buy the Ham gum they don't actually buy it and then get thrown out of the shop. They then go and join the army and immediately war is declared meaning they can't go back and buy gum, then while in battle Fry says "....and this gum is full of bones!".............?????

New day, new grabs:




The two frames are just one or two seconds apart - note the colors and shapes of the gifts behind Walt...

[Reply #701 on:]

Yet again another great catch, merely one reason you got my vote for POTM.

<Zoidberg>What a man! I'd follow him to hell and back, I would!</Zoidberg>

[Reply #703 on:]

That is both funny and quite an amazing catch.

[Reply #704 on:]

maybe the gift that is in front of him in the second grab was behind the pole in the first grab?
That... or the machine just went really fast in those 1-2 seconds 

[Reply #705 on:]

*bump*
nice spot, laptop.
I wonder if anyone has spotted the one my dad and i noticed the other day...

In "A Head In The Polls", after leela turns the debate on, Fry and Bender fall asleep. She pushed Fry over to the side, and sits down between them. The both wake up, and, here, go slowly, frame-by-frame on your DVD, and you will see Fry and Bender's waving arms going THROUGH Leela. I couln't find a framegrab...so, check it out, if you wish.

[Reply #706 on:]

Good catch, Llama! (or your father, whatever...)

You mean this, right?

[Reply #707 on:]

Eek! Now I'm gonna have to go and write a story about how Leela was being impersonated during that episode by an evil hologram!

[Reply #708 on:]

Haha, you'd better, Xanfor. That'd be hilarious. I just wrote part 1 of a fanfic...
And yes, i do mean that, Laptop!   

[Reply #709 on:]

Ok, something new (at least, I didn't find anything on that previously...)

The 300 dollar bill (well, 297 dollars...)


The SAME (Fry's) 300 (well, 3) dollar bill


Of course, one could argue that the person on the bill changes according to the value, but that's very unlikely, IMO.

[Reply #710 on:]

I hate to be critical of someone who spots so many goofs, but, are you sure thats not just money in the second frame grab and not the tricky-dix fun bill, aroooooooooooo!

[Reply #711 on:]

   No need to go that far! If you watch, Bender and Fry's hands only show through the area of Leela's tank top.  My mental fix was that she accidentally put on an experimental tank top of the professor's that simulates invisibility by projecting objects behind it onto the front.  He abandoned it because it only works sporadically (shows Fry and Bender's hands, but not the sofa, etc).

It's kinda like Fry having four hands for a second in "Bicyclops."  You just gotta assume it's some sort of futuristic optical illusion....

[Reply #712 on:]

I'd have to see other frames of the couch scene to be sure. That one just looks like Fry raised his arm from the couch and it went between Leela's elbow and torso. She is leaning forward.

[Reply #713 on:]

Woah...i din't think the goof i spotted could be so cool! (hence KitKat's beautiful idea of the freaky hologram-projector thingy) but also, yeah, i checked it out frame by frame and there are about 3-5 frames of Fry and Bender's hands going through Leela.

I'm very, very positive it's the same bill.
Reason: There wouldn't be such a thing like a 3-Dollar bill. Only the tricky-dix-Nixon-bills cans dos that.

I hereby withdraw the "goof" I spotted yesterday. Reason: In the second picture (the one with the not-Nixon-bill), how many bills are there? Conclusion: Fry has got some "regular" bills as change for his Nixon bill.

Yet, behold my mighty Hawk-i:
The very next shot, how many bills are there?
Also, the sugar bowl is missing in the pic above :-)


I will not further investigate this case, as it is very, very strange and would need some very good explanation. *looks at Xanfor*

Three dollar bills, I great man always spots his mistakes......then follows it up with two more goofs.

If you look carefully in the background of laptop's pic, you will see the tapestry of Zapp killing the Spidarians. then, from another angle of the tapestry, you see the coffee table again, but it is not where it should be.

its either that, or i need to lay off the peyote.

[Reply #717 on:]

lay off the peyote just in case. lol.

This seems to be true, Llama.
Also, in the scene where Fry extinguishes the fire, there's no coffee table at all... or it is hidden by the fire in the upper-right corner, I'm not sure about that...

Wanna see? Click here for yet another copyright protected yet uploaded framegrab...

Where is Xanfor to come up with a reasonable explanation? :-P

Very nice catches, people.
Oh, to see more goofs you can look here : www.moviemistakes.com  its got some good stuff.
BTW, to search for Futurama mistakes, look to the left. You will see a bar with the word 'go' beside it. I'm sure you can figure out the rest.
