I see no relevant difference between the two statements. They both say the same thing to whit: several scenes (multiple scenes) set (taking place) over several story days (different story days). I mean, really?
And you may know a few professional idiots, but I am not one of them.
Done and done here.

And THAT is why you fail.

Incorrect.
Your second claim was that they are different scenes on different days.
Your original claim was that though they were originally shot to be different scenes on different days were edited for brevity into a single scene on a single day.
The fact of the matter remains the scene in question was NOT over the course of several In film universe days but different shots of the same scene in the same day.
Ergo a GOOF!

CGSailor..
I too have an IMDb page but I don't have nearly as much self-importance or arrogance. You are absolutely correct. Scriptys are why it takes 10 years to even shoot a film, and by the end, the wardrobe is antiquated anyway. I'm starting to wonder if it was a film she fuc worked on. -

Except that in the interest of continuity, the actor would wear the same wardrobe for that shot, regardless of how many days it took to shoot, unless the director did it intentionally or scripty was 'sleep at the wheel. Sometimes "goofs" are intentional when the director purposely breaks continuity. If he filmed the same shot over days and used different wardrobes, theres some pissed off producers out there going "Uh HUH!!!!"

Ok you're not understanding me. STORY DAYS are not the same as shooting days; story days are the days in the story. I really don't know how to make it any simpler. AGAIN: this was most likely THREE SEPERATE SCENES that took place on THREE DIFFERENT STORY DAYS thus the different costumes (a character almost never wears the same costume twice on different story days unless it is a story point) and was combined as one scene in the edit for cut time reasons. There is NO WAY that this was a mistake made on set.

No!
You're
the one not paying attention. The goof in question was a ONE STORY DAY (I know you like caps for emphasis) but different story day shots were edited into a ONE story day final cut, most likely a budget issue NOT TIME issue. And speaking of wasting time, no one does that more than scripty. So even if it was done on purpose, it's still a "goof" in the continuity. You're acting all uppity like you were scripty on this movie, and more importantly, like it was your call. Probably why your credits are listed in miscellaneous UNDER transportation, and why no one yells out "points" carrying heavy objects next to your tent. -

ALL script supervisors are listed under miscellaneous on IMDB. We are a department of one so we don't get our own category. I see from most of your comments on other posts that you're in the sound department (at least that seems to be all you care about in the few of comments I read). So your snide comment about my credit being in Misc is petty and stupid as you well know that plenty of crew don't have their own category. So because you do, that makes you better than me? Now who is the arrogant one?
And what do you mean that no one wastes time more than scripty? Maybe on shows you work on. Not mine. And how disrespectful of the scriptys you have worked with. I would never say anything to malign you as far as your work as a sound guy is concerned because that would be maligning all the guys I work with and I respect them far too much to do that. But as for a department wasting time - I have never heard anyone say "there goes another costly scripty delay".
And noit would not be a budget issue how would that be? Explain.

They did the same thing in Nacho Libre. One minute the babies watching the TV are dressed and then they're sitting in diapers. Yeah, you're right. It's not a goof if a ladder falls on the talent and you leave it in. Totally true.

I would suggest the disappearance/absence of gore in the lecture auditorium after the exploding head in 'Scanners' (The reason was that Louis del Grande's character was originally supposed to have died from a heart attack, but still too obvious and glaring to be acceptable.)

It's a Wonderful Life. Toward the end of the movie where George is in the cemetary at his brother's grave, the dates don't match up with what they said his age was when he died.
