Goofs

Adventures in Babysitting

Edit

Continuity

When everyone is looking at Lola's photos in the closing scene, the final pic is of Trey washing Lady Marmalade being viewed by a shocked Helen Anderson. Lola gave her camera to the security guard at the concert, so she would not have been able to take that picture, nor would it have been on the memory card from which she was transferring the pictures.
Jenny is obviously not following the directions of the GPS navigation because she is driving in areas of the city where the GPS is clearly not even in the same vicinity as what she would have programmed in. At one point she is driving down a street with a dead end at East Cordova and Glen Street but continues driving when she should actually be stopped because she can go no further because she would be driving into a cement wall for an overpass.
When the car gets towed, the kids are standing at Glen and East Cordova Street, yet moments later they are standing a both farther north at Franklin and Glen, but they did not walk there. They just magically appeared there.
Lola hits the 2 pawnshop employees with a huge clothes bag, yet seconds later when she slides down the chain, the clothes bag is still affixed to where it was--when it should not have been there at all.
When Jenny and Lola are in the washroom at the concert, Katy puts lipstick on Jenny's lips, and it's a different shade than what Lola is wearing.

What reason would Lola have for having 3 different colors of lipstick? 1 very dark red, 1 pink and 1 medium rose red.

Factual errors

When Lola answered the call to go babysitting, she wasn't given any address. She just pulled up to a random house and by some strange luck out of all the houses in the city, she happens to arrive at the correct address with no notification.
Lola supposedly gets arrested for trying to sell a concert ticket, but there's no criminal code for such a crime; people are allowed to resell concert tickets, so the police officer is not only filing a false charge, but he did not tell Lola of her rights for legal representation and of any charges or that she is under arrest. Not only can Lola win this case, she can file a big lawsuit against the police department for false arrest and imprisonment and not giving the suspect the information to their Miranda rights of arrest.
In the police-station scenes, the detained arrested suspects are held in the waiting room along with visitors. Any suspects--guilty or innocent--would be held in a holding facility away from public until charges and paperwork are completed.
When the navigation GPS unit tells to turn left at 600 feet, they would be driving opposite into oncoming traffic. Nelson Ave is a one-way street which is not accessible by driving and making a left turn from the direction they were coming.
As the kids run away from the pawnshop manager, a gray truck van suddenly appears from nowhere and honks the horn. Since the kids were at the end of a dead-end street, there was no way that the truck van could be coming from that direction unless it drove through the wall of an overpass. There was only a walkway from behind the kids, and no van was parked behind them.

Miscellaneous

The kids enter the laundromat from an unlocked back door. When the two pawnshop employees enter after them, they enter from the front door, which is also unlocked. At no time did any alarms turn on, and for both doors to be unlocked without a working alarm is highly unlikely.
When the kids are exiting the pawnshop to get their car which is being towed, the are coming out of a pawnshop which doesn't actually exist. The building exterior is actually a plastics fabrication warehouse. Jenny parked across the street from the main door, but the scene shows the tow truck turning it from around the corner on Glen Ave. The tow truck wouldn't need to turn around as the driver can just drive straight down the road and exit the road without needing to back up the truck and car to drive back down a dead-end street.

Anachronisms

The tow truck has British Columbia, Canada license plates in the same shot with a U.S. Postal Service mailbox.

Errors in geography

When the girls are driving to the city, there are inter-cutting bridges between the Cambie Street Bridge and the Granville Street Bridge. The bridges are just over a kilometer apart and do not interconnect. When they are on the Cambie Street bridge, they are traveling away from the city, heading south, when they are on the Granville Street bridge, they are going north, towards downtown but they do not come down the main road when they exit.
