Sorry I meant to tell you that I got this info from the IMDb website. They have a whole list of 'goofs' from "Lost In Translation." They also have 'quotes' too. :D
Here are a few more goofs:
Continuity: When Charlotte first speaks to Bob in the hotel bar, the waiter brings her drink with part of the paper wrapper still on the straw. When she takes a drink in the next shot, the wrapper is gone, although she would not have had time to remove it.
Continuity: During the still photo shoot, the photographer asks Harris to pause so he can change films. The assistant can be seen sliding the lightproof cover into the film magazine on the back of the camera, and then immediately removing the sliding cover, all without actually changing films or magazines.
Continuity: Bob walks out of the hotel elevator wearing black shoes. Bt the time he gets to the other side of the street, he's, wearing multi-colored shoes.
Continuity: The pink flowers in Charlotte's room disappear when she is listening to the "soul searching" tape, but reappear later in the movie.
Continuity: In the karaoke room, a shot of Charlotte speaking shows the room number as 601. In the next shot, Charlotte is sitting outside the room, smoking, and Bill comes out of a door now showing 602 instead of 601.
Continuity: When Bob lays Charlotte on the bed after carrying her to her room, a few inches of stomach are visible between her sweater and skirt. When the camera cuts back to her, the sweater is pulled down and no skin is visible.
Continuity: When Bob first arrives at the hotel he has the first button or two undone on his shirt with no t-shirt visible. When we see him in the elevator moments later, a white t-shirt is visible under his shirt.
Continuity: After Charlotte injures her toe there is a shot of her sitting in the window. You can clearly see both of her feet including the toe that was injured (and later proved to be so bad that she needed to go to the hospital) but all toes look normal.
Continuity: When Charlotte listens to the "find yourself CD" she is looking at the front cover, which makes the back of the cover visible to the audience. When she turns the box around, the back cover that she's looking at is different than the one we just saw.
Crew or equipment visible: When Bob is sitting on the Hotel's bedroom bed, dressed in a green robe and white sleepers looking sad, you can see the cameraman and a woman reflected in the window, above his head.
Continuity: After the karaoke scene and they get back in a cab, the shot from outside the cab clearly shows an empty seat next to Charlotte. The next shot inside the cab shows a sleeping Bob Harris next to Charlotte.
wow, i had no idea, didn't noticed these things in the movie. good to know, maybe next time i watch it, i will keep my eye out for some of these subtle things. :doh:
