“8 Mile” Goofs List
- Revealing mistakes: When Rabbit and friends are shooting the paintball gun out of the car, the gun had no “ball hopper” (the container that sits on top of the gun that feeds paintballs into the gun to shoot). It would be possible to manually place individual balls in the gun but no one did so during the scene.
- Continuity: In the basement, Future is holding his cigarette between his fore- and middle-fingers, but in the next shot it is between his thumb and forefinger.
- Continuity: When Rabbit goes to his mother’s trailer for the first time he is wearing street shoes but when he takes Lily into the trailer he is wearing boots.
- Continuity: Length of B-Rabbit’s sideburns.
- Anachronisms: When Rabbit and his crew are driving through Detroit at night before they shoot the pintail’s, they pass a CVS Pharmacy store. These stores were known as Arbor Drugs in 1995 before they were bought out and turned into CVS.
- Crew or equipment visible: In the last rap battle, a cable is visible.
- Revealing mistakes: In the first battle, the DJ is playing the instrumental of “The Next Level (remix)” by Show + AG, which was released on PayDay records. The records shown on the decks aren’t on PayDay records. In addition to this, the DJ is using the same records in the end battle (where a different track is being played).
- Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the Rap Battle sequence, Future calls Lotto and Lyckety-Splyt by their real-life rap aliases “Ox” (Nashawn ‘Ox’ Breedlove) and “Strike” instead of their characters’ names.
- Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When rabbit and Alex are “together” in the factory, they separate for a couple of seconds and it seems that someone runs past in the background. However, this is actually Alex’s arm moving.
- Revealing mistakes: When B-Rabbit is using Sol’s paintball gun, he fires it at the police cruiser’s window, but the direction of the paint splatter is seen coming from the opposite direction.
- Anachronisms: Mentions Detroit’s casinos, which weren’t built until 1999, 4 years after the movie’s setting.
- Continuity: When Jimmy is getting his sweater from behind the bin before he chokes at the first battle, there is one point where cheddar bob says “are you going to stay at your mum’s?”, when he finishes saying this he puts his cigar to his mouth, the angle then changes so you can see all of the 313, bob is clearly holding his cigar down when it should be in his mouth.
- Continuity: During the fight in the trailer, a rail on the kitchen counter gets broken. A few minutes later it is fixed.
- Crew or equipment visible: When Jimmy Smith Jr. is talking outside the factory, the crew (holding the boom mic) are reflected in the window behind him
- Anachronisms: Set in 1995, later model cars are seen driving by in many scenes.
