    “Lethal Weapon 3″ Goofs List

    • Continuity: The blood on the white tiles in the police station.
    • Crew or equipment visible: Steadicam and operator visible when Riggs’ motorcycle falls from the highway.
    • Revealing mistakes: As Murtaugh turns from the motorcycle wreck/explosion, the last several frames of the shot show the cable supporting the motorcycle.
    • Factual errors: The motorbike Riggs has commandeered apparently knows about its own imminent demise. As it plummets to the ground, its siren changes pitch and dies out before it actually hits the ground.
    • Revealing mistakes: As the villains attempt to flee, they and Riggs drive onto a section of freeway that is being newly constructed. However there are already skid marks on the road surface, which is of course impossible. These appear to be from previous takes on the scene as they match the truck’s path perfectly.
    • Continuity: When Riggs is running (right before the motorcycle scene), he is wearing black, rubber-soled sneakers. When he mounts the bike, he’s wearing pointed-toe boots.
    • Continuity: When Riggs is following the villains’ pickup truck, they turn into a highway and a plane is spotted landing, it is a Lockheed L-1011 Tristar from Delta Airlines. In the next shot, apparently on the same spot, the plane suddenly changes to an Airbus A300 from American Airlines.
    • Continuity: After the gang members leave and Roger is talking to Nick on the sidewalk, the same red car drives behind Nick twice in the same direction.
    • Continuity: Wide-shots of the hockey game show the players wearing official NHL jerseys, while close-ups show uniforms that designed to vaguely resemble NHL jerseys, but clearly are not NHL issue.
    • Continuity: When fighting with the criminal in the fake armored car near the beginning, the criminal fires a round at the window. It doesn’t leave a hole, showing that it is indeed bullet proof. A few seconds later, Riggs slams on the brakes, and the criminal flies through the same window, shattering it. Also, later in the film, it is said that the bullets in the armored car suspect’s gun were armor piercing, so it should have gone through the window.
    • Continuity: During the armored van chase, the same blue station wagon is passed at least twice.
    • Revealing mistakes: A Lincoln Town Car, Chrysler New Yorker and blue Oldsmobile appear at least three times each in different spots on the freeway during the motorcycle pursuit.
    • Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Travis is telling Captain Murphy why he loves the police station in Murphy’s car, Travis’s reflection in the rear-view mirror shows that his lips are not moving.
    • Revealing mistakes: The security guard at the hockey rink is replaced by a dummy as he is roughed up.
    • Revealing mistakes: The motorcycle cop from whom Riggs commandeers the bike is already handing him the spare clips as he asks for them.
    • Continuity: When Riggs is running out on the Ice at the hockey game he is hit by one of the players. When he is hit the second time and falls to the ice, there’s a shot of him still in the hockey box struggling to get on the ice.
    • Continuity: During the armored car chase, Riggs can be seen wearing black socks with his uniform when he’s thrown back onto the pursuing truck. Soon after, during a close-up of a what is supposed to be his foot hitting the brake, white socks are clearly visible.
    • Crew or equipment visible: During armored vehicle chase scene, right before Riggs unlocks door and enters cab, crew is seen strapped onto roof of armored car.
    • Revealing mistakes: During the armored car chase Riggs climbs/hangs on the drivers side of the vehicle while attempting to reach the cab. It is an obvious rail/hand hold that has been added to the truck for the purpose of the stunt. At the beginning of the chase it is not there. At points during the chase it is there and then gone, and even appears to have switched trucks with respect to whom is driving.
    • Continuity: When Riggs is demonstrating the cop-killer bullets on the firing range he shoots at a bullet proof vest several yards away. As the vest is being bought back to Riggs you can see the bullet hole where the bullet went through the front and back of the vest. This means it penetrated two layers of armor. At the construction site Lorna wears two vests. Travis shoots her from only a few feet away yet the bullet only penetrates one layer of armor, not two.
    • Factual errors: The machine pistol used by Darryl and later Sergeant Murtaugh is not a MAC-10 as stated, but is in fact a Cobray M-11.
    • Factual errors: When Murtaugh cocks his machine pistol before making the assault on the construction site, the bolt handle on top remains in the forward position. With a weapon that fires from an open bolt such as this, the bolt handle would lock to the rear when cocked.
    • Continuity: At the end of the car chase on the highway, the white Ford pick-up turns around and heads towards Riggs on the motorcycle. In this scene, you can clearly see that the orange glasses of the pick-up’s front turn signals are gone (probably because of hitting the barricades before). Yet in a later scene, when Riggs and Murtaugh arrive at Mesa Verde the pick-up is parked in front of the houses and the front is now completely intact again.
    • Revealing mistakes: The scene after Travis shoots Leo on the ice, and Riggs chases after him, when Riggs loses Travis in the maintenance corridor and starts kicking and cursing for losing him. Look closely, you can see the set painting drawn to look like the corridor continues much further out (look at the ceiling, you can clearly see the end of the set painting).
    • Factual errors: Near the end of the armored car chase scene, Riggs causes one of the bad guys to fly through the armored car’s front wind shield. These would normally be made of bullet resistant glass several times thicker than regular glass which would have stopped a human body without even cracking.
    • Crew or equipment visible: After Rigs grabs the parking ticket off his truck’s window, the camera tracks over to Murtaugh in the passenger seat. As the trucks pulls away we can see the camera matte box with “Panavision” clearly visible as a reflection in the window.
    • Continuity: When Riggs and Murtaugh pull up to the convenience store and get out of the truck, the windows are clearly rolled up. But after Riggs crashes Reanne’s movie shoot and they come back to the truck, the windows are rolled down because Riggs easily leans out of the window to yank off the parking ticket.
    • Continuity: When Riggs and Lorna are picking the lock to enter the warehouse, you can see daylight coming through between the door jam and the door, showing that there is no locking mechanism between the two. The door is already unlocked.
    • Continuity: When the final shootout is in the burning pre fabs, Murtaugh is opening up the case of cop killer bullets with a ruler that he got from the tool belt, but when he throws a tool at the guy who is shooting, it is an axe.
    • Continuity: After Jack shots Billy in the interrogation room, there is a big blood spot on the wall behind Billy. When Riggs, Murtaugh and Cole come in a minute later, the blood spot is gone.
    • Continuity: During the scene where Murtagh is in the bath surrounded by family, Getz has his left arm in the sling, then his right, then his left again.
    • Incorrectly regarded as goofs: During the shootout at the burger stand, Sgt. Murtaugh’s gun switches from a silver automatic to a black revolver. However, after Murtaugh empties his automatic he can be seen reaching for his secondary weapon, the black revolver. It’s common for police officers, especially plain clothes officers, to carry a back-up weapon.
    • Continuity: When Riggs is hanging from the drivers side of the armored car the other armored car slams into the drivers side of the armored car with Riggs hanging from the roof. The two armored cars are seen driving side by side with the front fenders even. This means Riggs would have been smashed between the two, but the next scene shows him with no injuries, and still hanging from the roof.
    • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Travis is inquiring about Phelps, the Officer says “You wanna sign in, Sarge”. Moments later, Capt. Murphy identifies him as Lieutenant Jack Travis. Sergeant and Lieutenant are 2 different ranks.
