Whoopsie-Daisy! (Goof thread V.2)

[Reply #520 on:]

Hobbitboy: The script has Bender saying, "Scarab, forearm, bird-bird-bird!"
Sounds like a verbal list of hieroglyphics. From a quick check on the web that would translate to something like "Become (or life/death), give, power!" which sounds a bit like "Hand it over!" or "Give me or you're dead!"

It wasn't, I was just using it as a pathetic excuse. Besides it was meant to screw with you anyway. Note the smiley laughing evilly.

This has probably been mentioned, but in one of the earlier episodes, it's established that Bender went to Bending college by rolling him up on a conveyer belt & downloading his bending knowledge into him; he's handed a diploma right there.  But, later we hear he went to an actual college and joined "robot house".  Hmmm...

Maybe he just wanted to learn more...ever think of that?
 

[Reply #532 on:]

He joined Robot House but I don't remember him talking about going to classes which sounds about right for some frats. Maybe after his knowledge download they gave him a coupon for Robot House.

FOUND A GOOF!

The producers claim that Owls have killed all the rats, and taken over as the new pests of earth, but in the episode "I second that emotion", Bender lays rat poison on the floor and exclaims "that'll take care of those pesky rats"

[Reply #534 on:]

In Leela's Homeworld the mutants use a rat to demonstrate the effects of their mutogenic lake.

In one of the commentaries they admit to having forgotten that rats were extinct on several occasions. Just like how they periodically forgot that the technology of the wheel was also supposed to have been lost.

If you have any poo, fling it now.

[Reply #535 on:]

Alright, this may have been said, but I don't know.


In the shot below, Nibbler is here, and doing fine.




Here, Nibbler ran off to roam Atlantic City!


But within seconds, he's back with Leela.


Though it might not seem like a lot, I found it interesting.

Mittens: What are you doing?
Bolt: Stay back! If I stare at the lock really hard, it'll burst into flames and melt.
Mittens: Now I'm concerned on a number of levels.

I just watched "My Three Suns" last night on the flight back from Punta Cana and I noticed that right after Fry finished his speach Bender is holding a martini.



Imediatly after this he is holding a wine glass and says " Hey, look. The suns are setting. I can finally switch to hard liquor!" At this point he throws away the wine glass and pull the martini out of his chest.

The Bear Says:

Maybe Amy told him it was socially unacceptable and that he should put it away until evening 

[Reply #538 on:]

Which occured roughly six seconds later.

[Reply #539 on:]

It's difficult to judge time under 3 suns I would reckon. Just ask Uncle Owen

[Reply #540 on:]

That's true. Although in that case it's only two suns.

*354 day bump*

I was watching The Series Has Landed this afternoon and I noticed a couple of goofs that I'd never noticed before:



The red trim that wraps around the hull is way too big and in the wrong place in the first image, and the dimensions of the whole ship are off in the second one (look at the portholes). 

[Reply #542 on:]

That's my favourite episode.

[Reply #543 on:]

The ship is always wrong when it is drawn in 2D, The first image you can see that they filled in the wrong area with red. just like in the same episode around bender's eyes was gray instead of black, and I think either in that one or the pilot one of Leela's boots was coloured fully black.

[Reply #544 on:]

Now you see it


And now you don't

He's a witch!

I'd disagree.  If you listen to the commentary of "I, Roommate", the animators say that the ship were often incorrectly drawn in 2D during the first episodes, because the 3D model had yet to be build.  In other words, they had very little go from, so they just drew as they went along.

When the ship was later in a 3D model, the 2D drawings of it appeared very consistent and have remained so.  Though, they often resort to the 3D model rather than drawing it.

[Reply #546 on:]

Andy's site has a section about the ship, including a list of mistakes sorted by episode.  Hasn't been updated in ages, but still pretty informative.

[Reply #547 on:]

The cargo bay on the bottom seems to fluctuate in the way it opens constantly,
If you can understand that.

[Reply #548 on:]

In time keeps on skipping, farnsworth and proffesor bubblegum look out of the window, and they see 2 kids standing outside a pensions building complaining about old people getting money. Then there is another time skip, then they age, but nothing else does.

[Reply #549 on:]

Willster, in the dialogue Farnsworth and Tate discuss the increasingly unstable timeskips that have begun occurring in localized areas. It just showed what they were talking about - select zones of timeskips.

[Reply #550 on:]

Said it before but in "a head in the polls" there is a massage bed that that fry is uses which is thought activated but his thoughts cant be read...

The machine's 'mind reading' probably works more like the common polygraph (albeit more precise), responding to physiological indicators (temperature, skin conductivity, pupil dilation, etc) to gauge the subject's thought processes.
I think we can safely attribute true psychic powers to living organisms only.

yeah you said that in the thread i made, but it is arguable that it is living in that it looks like some sort of octapus or something with tenticles

[Reply #553 on:]

Biomechanics don't count, 'cause they still have computers for brains. That's why it was always a bit rich to call the Terminators 'Cyborgs' rather than robots just because they had some vat-grown skin grafted onto them.
Anyhow, undulating tentacles do not an organism make.

This isn't technically a goof, I guess, but I've always wondered, in Brannigan Begin Again when they make the delivery to the planet with the funny gravity, why didn't Leela park the ship closer to the hotel they were delivering the pillows to?

I thought of that the other day when I was watching that episode.

[Reply #555 on:]

Restricted airspace.

I'm not sure if this has been said before but in TDHaIP near the end of the song Fry's nose is behind his overbite for a brief few seconds. I don't have a picture to prove it but I'm sure it was there.
