“The Rocker” Goofs List
- Continuity: SPOILER: When Vesuvius leave the Stage at the end of the movie and A.D.D. reenter it, it can clearly be seen that the drum kit of Vesuvius is covered again and the much smaller drum kit of Fish is on Stage, which wasn’t their when Vesuvius started to “play”.
- Errors in geography: When Fish is kissing the mom on the roof on the Midwest Tour, the Toronto skyline (Bank of Montreal Tower, Scotiabank Plaza, and TD Tower) is in the background.
- Revealing mistakes: When “Fish” is flung off the top of Vesuvius’ van you can see he lands on a mat.
- Continuity: When “Fish” is flung off the top of Vesuvius’ van he lands with his head towards the van, but in the next shot he is sideways.
- Factual errors: Vesuvius is slated to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame after 20 years together. However, artists aren’t eligible for induction (barring an extenuating circumstance) until 25 years have passed since the artist released his/her/their debut.
- Errors in geography: When Fish is on the porch he looks at the Rock Hall. There is no such view from any house in Cleveland. The Rock Hall is downtown, surrounded by large buildings with no residential neighborhoods.
- Continuity: The position of the drums after Fish knocks them over as he quits the band.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: During shots of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show the tom drums appear loosened and out of tune and would not produce the sounds heard live.
- Continuity: During a crane shot of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show Fish’s drum set appears as a larger drum set with two bass drums instead of the smaller setup with just one bass drum with “A.D.D.” written on it.
- Continuity: During a crane shot of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show Vesuvius’s double bass drum set is being shown instead of Fish’s set.
- Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When the video director asks the band to read the words backwards, he has a sign held up for them to read backwards words. However, the word ‘mistake’ is spelled as k-a-t-e-s-i-m when it should be e-k-a-t-s-i-m. If you sound out “k-a-t-e-s-i-m” phonetically, it would be “mistake” backwards. “e-k-a-t-s-i-m” wouldn’t work.
- Continuity: During the prom scene, the cymbals that are behind Fish have large breaks. However, the one on the left changes the position of the break between shots.
- Plot holes: Matt comes to Lee’s basement to present Fish with a laptop and web-cam to practice, but Matt wouldn’t know where Fish was staying as Matt was grounded so could not use the phone, Fish is not seen to own a phone and Matt’s mum would not want to stay in contact with Fish.
- Factual errors: YouTube does not allow you to upload videos with nudity in them (the video of Robert naked).
- Errors in geography: When Fish is dumped by his girlfriend at the beginning, he walks to his sister’s house to crash, and he is shown walking North past the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to get there. Not only is there no residential area in that direction, but if he walked just a little bit further, he would walk right into Lake Erie, as the Rock Hall is on the Erie shore.
- Continuity: During the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame show, when A.D.D. come back onto the stage to play, there is a scene where Amelia is singing into the Mic, but as the scene changes she appears at the back of the stage next to “Fish”. As the scene changes again she is next to her Mic again.
- Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Fish takes the phone photo with Curtis, he says “on three”, but then starts counting down “three, two, one.”
- Errors in geography: When A.D.D. first gets on the bus, Gator makes a reference to “heading north on the 5.” They were in Cleveland, but the 5 is on the west coast. Also, north from Cleveland gets you very wet.
- Revealing mistakes: During A.D.D.’s set at the Hall of Fame show, there is a pull away shot which is reversed. In the shot, the lead singer is playing the guitar left-handed and the bass player and keyboard players are flipped.
- Revealing mistakes: After Aziz has taken off the plastic wrapping of his new bought Vesuvius CD, he takes it out the box and holds it up with the back facing the camera – The CD is clearly a CD-R with a green recordable back, not a silver backing like any original store bought audio CD would have.
- Errors in geography: The skyline shown right before A.D.D. views their music video is of Minneapolis (Wells Fargo building, US Bank building, etc.) not Cleveland.
- Continuity: When ADD is warming up for Vesuvious, Matt pitches his hat to his number 1 fan. Later, when they re-take the stage after Vesuvious stalks off, Matt is wearing his hat again.
- Continuity: When Fish is helping Amelia with her hair, he holds up a bottle of product with the bar code facing Amelia. In the reverse shot, the bar code is facing Fish.
- Revealing mistakes: When Amelia and Matt are playing Rock Band on the tour bus, the notes continue to be hit on the TV after they stop playing the Rock Band guitars to talk, and it switches from one player to two between shots.
- Continuity: When the band is recording “Bitter”, the position of Curtis’s microphone changes throughout the song, from up near his face, to down by his chest.
