“Jurassic Park” Goofs List
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: SPOILER: In the final T-Rex scene, the T-Rex throws a raptor at the T-Rex skeleton. The sound for the raptor hitting the skeleton is late.
- Crew or equipment visible: When the Raptors are being fed for the viewing of the visitors, a crewmember’s white shirt can clearly be seen shaking the leaves in the pit as the Raptors attack their prey.
- Continuity: During the helicopter flight, Malcolm is sitting opposite Hammond, next to the door Hammond is the first to get off the helicopter, followed by Grant, Sattler and Gennaro, but Malcolm disappears from his seat next to the door.
- Continuity: When the two jeeps are approaching the Brachiosaurus, Hammond instructs his driver to hastily stop the jeep to which the driver complies, halting the vehicle. The shot then changes to the first car and we can see Hammond’s car is still moving, even though we saw and heard it stop in the previous shot.
- Continuity: Occasionally Hammond limps with the wrong foot and/or has the cane in the wrong hand.
- Crew or equipment visible: Stage light reflected on the hood of the Explorer when it hits the bottom of the tree.
- Continuity: When Tim looks through the windshield with the goggles, Lex is looking in his direction. When the shot switches to the outside, she is looking elsewhere.
- Continuity: In the T-rex attack scene when Grant and Lex are inches from the rex, they are leaning right against the upside-down car (notice Grant’s hat). In the next shot, they are at least a few feet from the car and in a different position.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Lex falls through the ceiling, she is screaming but her mouth isn’t moving.
- Revealing mistakes: When Lex falls through the ceiling, a thin string can be seen falling along with the broken ceiling tile pieces. Notice the piece over to the left, it moves over an inch or two to the left.
- Continuity: When Dennis is taking the embryos in the shaving cream can, the can changes between red and blue and then back again when it is being covered in the mud.
- Crew or equipment visible: When the Explorer is falling down while Grant and Tim are trying to get out of the tree, you can see the cable that is pulling the car downward.
- Continuity: When Dr. Grant starts climbing into the tree that contains the Explorer with Tim trapped inside, the tree is dripping with water from the rain. A few seconds later when he reaches the Explorer there are no drops falling down. When Dr. Grant start talking to Tim you can see water drip behind him again.
- Continuity: When Dennis crashes the Jeep in the Dilophasaurous section of the island, the Jeep gets stuck on a tree branch. Dennis ties a cable to a tree to free the Jeep from the tree branch. The cable is clearly seen sitting straight. When Dennis is face to face with the lizard in front of the Jeep, the cable is somehow gone. And it stays like this throughout the whole scene.
- Continuity: When Alan, Timmy and Lex are running from the Gallimimus herd, some of the dinosaurs run past them, but in the next scene, shot from behind, there aren’t any in front of them.
- Revealing mistakes: After Tim has been shocked by the electric fence and is left in the dining area with Lex, his hair is clearly standing on end because of the shock. However, when he and Lex are being chased by the raptors in the kitchen, his hair is neatly styled.
- Continuity: The scene in the trailer Hammond is drying the glass with a towel in one shot and in the next the towel is a complete new one evident by the change in color.
- Continuity: During lunch when Hammond explains to Gennaro that the “park isn’t just for the super-rich?”, Hammond’s hands change positions between shots.
- Continuity: Near the end, when they enter the helicopter to leave the island, the number on the side of the helicopter is different from the one we see them flying in the next scene.
- Revealing mistakes: The explorers reach the T-Rex paddock and it breaks through the fence to the explorer’s right. Minutes later, the T-Rex sends Tim and Lex’s explorer over the same wall it came from. The plunge down the wall/cliff onto the tree is far too large for a full grown T-Rex to “climb over” onto the road. Let alone that in the film, the T-Rex was shown looming above the explorers from the same side of the fence where this “cliff” exists.
- Factual errors: In order for Timmy to be hurt by the electric fence, he would need some part of his body touching the ground. (It can’t be an interlaced fence because there are wires connecting all the cables.) Since he was still several feet up, he is just as safe as a bird sitting on a power line. Even if it was interlaced, energizing it while he gripped it with both hands would not knock him off. He would be unable to let go. After further review, the cables are connected by cords, not wire. So it could, (but not must!) be an interlaced fence. At the time the sparks fly, Timmy is standing on one cable, he’s holding another with both hands, and a third cable is about level with his knees. If the fence is interlaced, he would be okay as long as he doesn’t touch the cable by his knees. (Or come within a quarter-inch of it!)
- Revealing mistakes: In the climbing of the electric fence scene, there is a shot where it is plainly seen that this is a mere section of fence, and the actors could easily walk around it.
- Continuity: At the beginning, when we first meet Dennis Nedry at the outdoor cafes in San Jose, he is talking to Dodgson and wiping his fingers with a napkin, and his fingers change positions from one shot to the next.
- Crew or equipment visible: In the brief shot that shows the Ford Explorer being flipped on its top by the Tyrannosaurus Rex, various pieces of equipment can be seen in the back behind everything.
- Continuity: When the helicopter is descending onto the island, the cars are already beside the landing pad. As the scientists get out, the cars are shown backing up to the pad.
- Crew or equipment visible: When Grant and the two children are being chased, the tire tracks from the moving camera can be seen in the grass.
- Continuity: After Dennis Nedry pulls out the cable on the front of the jeep, he slips and falls down the hill with water rushing down all around him. In the next shot, there is hardly any water around him.
- Continuity: When the power to the electric fence comes on, sending Timmy flying toward Dr. Grant, Timmy flies off of the fence in a perfectly vertical position with no sign of rotation. But when Dr. Grant catches him, he is cradling him horizontally.
- Continuity: In the very end of the movie, when they are all in the plane headed home, Lex is seen sleeping on Dr. Grant. Her head position changes several times between shots.
- Continuity: The goat’s leg mysteriously disappears just before the T-rex smashes into the roof of the car.
- Continuity: When the two grandchildren are in the jeep and the T-Rex smashes down on the plexiglass roof, a large section breaks where Tim is holding it up. When the camera switches positions, the glass is whole again.
- Continuity: In the scene with Ellie and Hammond, she leans forward to grab a spoonful of ice cream. The next shot is from behind Ellie, and shows her at the end of a long table, with the ice cream cartons 6-8 feet away from her and out of reach.
- Continuity: When Ellie enters the cafeteria where Hammond is eating ice cream the ceiling fans are working despite the power being out.
- Continuity: When the Velociraptor egg is first hatching, the robotic arm is holding it in place, in the next shot the arm is nowhere to be seen.
- Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Disneyland opened on 17 July 1955, not 1956 as said by John Hammond.
- Continuity: When Nedry gets out of the Jeep to open the gate, he leaves the door open, but when he comes back, it is shut.
- Revealing mistakes: When the goat leg falls on top of Tim and Lex’s car, the severed end of the leg is cleanly cut, as if with a knife. Given that every time other we see the T-Rex feed it shakes its prey violently, like a shark would, the goat leg should be ragged and rent.
- Errors in geography: Just after Malcolm is rescued, you see him sitting in the back of the jeep in the T-Rex area next to the other vehicle viewing the tremors in the water. In the next shot he is hurrying the others to come to the vehicle and they are in a completely different area of the park.
- Continuity: When Dr. Grant is describing the attack patterns of Velociraptor’s to the boy in Montana, his index fingers change f
