Superbad Trivia: Continuity Errors
Continuity errors happen in every film, because it’s difficult to make sure every little detail is perfect. Superbad is no exception; it had a lot of them. Here are just some of those Superbad trivia gems:
- McLovin’s wound, which resulted from being punched in the liquor store, is seen at first on the side of his face under the stem of his glasses. Later, it appears on the front of his cheek.
- A red chair at the end of the table disappears and reappears while Seth and Evan eat lunch.
- You can see it’s getting dark when Evan and Seth are in the store, because car lights and streetlights come on. But when they come out of the store, the sun is out.
- After Seth gets hit by the guy’s car in the store parking lot, the “open” sign seen behind the car owner changes from off to on from one shot to the next.
- Fogell’s fake I.D. signature is spelled “McLovin” when he shows it to Seth and Evan, but when it’s seen again in the store, it’s spelled “McLoving.”
- Seth has blood on his jeans at the party, but it’s gone when he sees the officers after the party. It then reappears when he gets to the next party.
- The dent on the detergent bottle that Evan holds in his left hand disappears and reappears while he and Seth argue.
- The cops run the red light on James Street twice on their way to the bar.
- The policemen and dispatcher on the intercom say that the cop car number is 98, but the number on the car is actually 96.
