I don't know if anyone mentioned this because I didn't look at all the pages, but during "Light My Candle" Adam says something like "On your finger" then looks away and says "Ooh, fingers". I don't know if he thought he messed up the line or something, but it's something I noticed.
The biggest blooper came at the end of the movie during the credits. It said... Director: Chris Columbus.
He messes up the lyrics? That's impossible; they were pre-recorded.
In "I'll Cover You" in some scenes Collins' collar is popped up in others it's down. It was kind of funny watching it go up and down like that.
Kel, I love ya but I said that one on the first page :)
I had the good fortune to go to the set when they filmed I'll Cover You. That is indeed a fake subway station they walk out of.
Not a blooper but something to take a look at next time you see the movie - on the MTV thing that aired the other day, the cast said some of the stuff on the walls and Roger and Mark's belongings are actual items that belonged to Jonathan Larson.
i know someone mentioned the NYC 2005 banner hanging during one of the songs...
to me it looked like one of the olympic banners that were advertising NYC as an option for the olympics in 2009(?)
did anyone think that too?

Hey, it's not the Church Avenue station in Brooklyn.
It was actually filmed on 12th street between Ave A and 1st Ave. My friend lives over there and you can see her apartment. The Life Support center is actually a school in reality. We laughed because we didn't get why they wanted to take the F/V to another place in the east village....
notttt really a blooper but more ironic...
during without you when Rodger comes into Mimi's apt...when she says "the eagles fly"....Rodger walks in wearing a shirt with an Eagle on it. weirdddddddd.
everything else was mentioned I think that I noticed.
does anyone else think its funny that Collins runs after maureen and joanne when they are singing TMOLM? i do!

the dialogue before ill cover was shot on 12th street like you said, but they really did film the beginning of santa fe in the church street subway station.. i was there :)
Along with the Subway...I noticed that they were on the F train to Coney Island. Would they have been going that way? I don't know the city well enough so I'm clueless...

when they get onthe subway after the meeting, there are visible signs that say church street station which is in brooklyn so i guess they wanted the meeting to be set in brooklyn ..unless its a mistake that they showed the signs for the station.. .
i thought i read somewhere that the camera that Mark uses wouldn't have that turning thing going on if he was actually shooting.

it is a 16mm camera and so it needs to be winded so the camera operator would have to do that Updated On: 11/30/05 at 12:00 AM

angelrock25222:you are lucky! Did you see them? If I did then I would stare at Adam only. Well after done shooting.
The whole movie was full of anachronisms. My friend, who got her masters in business/marketing, noticed that the Stoli bottles had the new labels, which replaced the older kind a few years ago - early 2000s, I think. In 1989 there would have been different labels on the Stoli. Also, there is Range Rover problem, which has been mentioned above. And the other cars, too. It's also been mentioned that Thelma and Louise came out in 1991.
Seems like they chose the year after they shot the rest of the movie, or Chris Columbus is too lazy to do period research. The latter is more likely.

Saw it for the third time last night, and my mom let me in on the interesting fact that after Anthony wakes up from his little Tango hallucination, he has food in his teeth. Or so my mom says - I didn't catch it. I don't think I'll believe it until I see it, haha.

Just saw it again today, and I didn't see any food :-p
ok I think I am the first one to post this but when Mark, Joanne and Maureen are going to the Buzzline interview they are walking from accross the street but when they leave they are right outside of the bldg and Mark is un chaining his bike.
oh and the Mute posters are the coolest thing ever, I love Mute, also isnt Jesse wearing a Mute shirt in the last scene!
I just got back from seeing the film....
You people spend too much time nit-picking.
Relax a little, because the doctor won't be able to yank his hand out of your uptight butts.
Sorry, that's just what I noticed.
you need to stop looking up peoples butts TheatreDiva
