• In the hazing scene with the freshman girls there is a red car in the background with IROC style wheels which didn't come out until the mid 80's. The movie is set in 1977. - K2000kid

• In the scene, where Pickford is driving down the road and Dawson is sitting next to him in the front seat, if you watch the back seat the position of the 2 guys changes. In the first scene Slater-San is on the right side and the other guy on the left but then Slater moves to left and the other guy moves to the right.

• Not sure if this is technically a "goof" but it's pretty damn weird...There's a scene during the party at the moontower where Wiley Wiggins' character is talking to his sister by a tree. The scene lasts about 30 seconds and the whole time there are a couple of guys in the background doing these weird slow motion dances or something...please feel free to correct me if you know what the hell is going on. - Japhysun79

• When a bunch of the guys are cruising around smashing mail boxes, they stop at a store to make a "grab and go" for some beer. When they get out of the car the entire film crew is visible in the reflection of the car. - Repassy

• When Ben Affleck gets the paint dumped on him he is not covered in the front and in the next shot he is covered in the front and on his face more and when he goes in his car to speed away he makes his tires peel off IN THE GRASS. - Sirkie

• In the famous payback scene right after they "paint O'Banion", Hurshfield and the other guy hurry off the roof. If you look at their shadows closely when they make the first jump off the building, you'll see the shadows are normal during the jump, but when they land you'll notice that you can still see the shadow of a foot, even though you see both of them continue to make their get away. This either means that Peter Pan wasn't the only one to lose his shadow, or else their stunt doubles didn't do a very good job of hiding! (VHS) - Tad

• In the part where Pink, Pickford, Mitch, and Dawson go mail box smashing. Pink puts his hands out to grab the trash can and then it shows Dawson picking it up and Pink throwing it. (VHS) - lsd13

• At the party at the moontower, look in the background to someone drunk and passing out next to a car. A few scenes later, the same guy is passing out again with everyone surrounding him and nobody helping him up. - crazyJ

• During the freshman girls hazing, one of the girls has to propose to Dawson. Notice she is on here knees when she asks him, but when he makes her open her mouth, she is sitting down. Can that girl actually be that fast??? - crazyJ

• Anachronisms: When Mitch goes to purchase beer at the convenience store, a Coke dispenser with a logo first introduced in 1985 is visible. - pickfords_girl

• Audio/visual unsynchronised: When driving to the outdoor party Wooderson and Benny are yelling at each other but the words don't match their mouths. - pickfords_girl

• Audio/visual unsynchronised: When Don is driving with Pickford and starts yelling at the girls, his mouth doesn't match the words. - pickfords_girl

• Crew or equipment visible: When Pink is throwing trash cans out of the car you can see the wire attached to the car from the trailer it's riding on, also the tires aren't moving. - pickfords_girl

Commented Goofs

• For a movie that is set in 1976, there sure is a lot of music from 1970-72. You would think a film about high school teens would include the music of that year, which was that disco stuff, and not music that would have been in their eighth grade year. Those directors could have done themselves a huge favor by setting the film back 4 years. - DoubleJ
  • Comment: Ok, as to the comment about the movie being set in '76, yet playing a lot of music from 72... Don't even tell me that you never listen to an old cd. Most of the music me and my friends listen to today is not from the last few years. I may be living right not in 2003, but I don't listen to 'Nsync, Britney, Avril or Michelle Branch, by far. I still listen to old Pearl Jam and the fist of many bands albums and... get this even music from the 70's...hello 30 years ago. Your comment does not matter. Recheck the music you and others listen to, I bet much of it is NOT too recent. Look at the major bands of today, the ones that concert-goers flock to and sell out... Metallica (began in the 80's actually late 70's), Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Snoop Dog... Also did it seem like any of the characters in the film were interested in disco music? What were the posters in Pickford's room??? I remember Pink Floyd in particular. And Wooderson was going to get Aerosmith tickets... none of which were disco bands. Re-watch the film buddy. Now what would be incorrect is if the movie contained music that came out AFTER 1976... :-) The directors were brilliant in choosing their music. - khidrock

Corrected Goofs

• When the 3 girls are talking about Gilligan's Island you'll notice that one of them compares Ginger to Madonna well if I'm right Madonna was not even a singer back then how would they have known her. - jonathanbooth
  • Correction: They do NOT compare MaryAnn to Madonna, they compare her to "The Madonna". Live the Virgin Mary. - tbonerocks

• During the girls hazing scene, Simone is shown wearing black high heels. A few minutes later she is shown wearing socks and tennis shoes. - Isabelle
  • Correction: Simone is not wearing heels...that is Renee Zellweger...Later you see her very clearly...I made that mistake too. I just watched it. - anet_16
    • Comment: Renee Zelwegger is not in this movie. anet what are you talking about? - nikkibaby

• When Carl's mom pulls the shot gun, she cocks it; seconds later, she cocks it again. - Off My Bach
  • Correction: Carl's mom only cocked the shotgun once, she did not cock it when she first opened the door. - TheMovieMan
