Even the most skilled writers, producers, and actors occasionally make mistakes. Hollywood's favorite actors, directors, producers, stunt performers, prop masters, costumers, screenplay coordinators, and cinematographers are still simply humans, despite the illusion that movies are magical.

Mistakes may make movies much more precious to the audiences that adore them, much like freckles on a person's face. The best movie gaffes turn into permanent creases in the narrative fabric of the movies in which they appear.

Fans regularly use these discussion-worthy flaws to launch fascinating dialogues about the fictional universes in which they occurred, despite the fact that doing so may initially appear to be malicious. So yes, we can see flaws in movies and TV shows since nothing is flawless. 

Regarding Stranger Things, the Netflix series has become a fan favorite. Although this multimillion-dollar production is fantastic thanks to the cast's endearing attractiveness and outstanding acting abilities, there are numerous mistakes that viewers have found after watching it again.

If there have been a few minor errors throughout the series' history, these would be inevitable problems. We now have a fascinating subject on which to discuss our favorite movie.

We'll look at 15 errors today that you probably didn't see the first time. Take a look at them by scrolling below!

1. The bus where the characters took shelter in season 1 is Blue Bird TC 2000.

This model was manufactured from 1998 to 2003, many years after the time in which the events took place.

2. Barbara’s car, one of the first victims of the Demogorgon in the first season, wasn’t made until 1988. The series was set in 1983, which means the particular model did not exist back then.

3. In season 4, the main characters spent a day full of mixed feelings, but Will suffered the most.

The scene occurred on March 22; if you recall from season 2, that was Will’s birthday. The producers said they missed it.

4. At the beginning of episode 5 of the second season, Will had an image of the “other side” waking him from his slumber, all agitated. In the same scene, you see his shirt turning from entirely wet to dry several times.

5. When Will found a creature in the bathroom, he ran out and dropped his walkie-talkie, but the device was gone when the others went in to get it.

6. In season 3, when Alexei was on the run from Hopper, you can see how the image was reversed; When he was running, the shirt pockets were on the right, but when you see them from the front, the shirt pockets moved to the left.

7. When Steve was eating a banana in season 3, he threw the peel on the table, but seconds later, he somehow had the banana back in his hand.

8. The walkie-talkies used by the characters to communicate were unavailable until 1985, two years after the series’ first season was supposed to begin.

9. As they were sitting in the hospital waiting in season 3, Eleven tried to ignore Will, stopped reading her magazine, and turned to the left. But in the next shot, she was rereading the magazine and turned away from Will again.

10. In a scene from season three, set in 1985, Will offers to make peace with Eleven, some of his M&Ms.

You can see at a glance that some of them are red. This is a historic error because Mars, the candy company, stopped making red in 1976 due to a dispute with the dye used, and it was only in 1987 that it returned to production.

11. In season 3, the hamburger of Bruce Natalie’s was changed from one second to the next.

At first, the meat was on top of the different ingredients, and an instant later, it was on the bottom.

12. In the scene where Natalie argues with her mother and locks herself in her room, you can see how the bag she carries changes position from second to second.

13. During the scene where Eleven and Hopper had breakfast in the second season, the position of the actress and the things on the table change repeatedly.

14. As the kids prepared to face the monster in season 1, you can see the school’s basketball court marked with three-pointers. However, this line was officially used in 1987, not 1983.

15. In season 3, when Robin and Erica were locked in a warehouse, they found a container with a mysterious substance.

Robin got it from Erica. And we can see how the position of her hand changes.

There have been many mistakes made in popular works like Pulp Fiction and Star Wars, as well as shows like Game of Thrones and Stranger Things, and these are some of the most ridiculous. The show is still wonderful, though, and viewers would love to see it again and again.
