Now, this might seem like your standard "magically disappearing item" continuity error that doesn't really deserve its own mention given how common a mistake it is.

However, this was an insanely noticeable continuity error that you'd basically have to be blind not to notice, and it's really a testament to how challenging it is to edit a comedy movie, given the improv and off-script work that often gets thrown into the mix. As such, it gets its own entry on this list.

Anyway, at the end of the film, Dave (Zac Efron) walks over to Alice (Anna Kendrick), who is sat on a park bench bare-footed. She then grabs Dave, makes out with him on the bench and straddles him, at which point the next shot shows her wearing flip flops which seem to have materialised out of nowhere.

Then the next shot again shows her in bare feet. This one's obvious enough you don't need to out yourself as a foot fetishist to catch it.
