Did you know that there's a job in the film industry that's specifically responsible for making sure little details like which hand a character held a cup in/how full that cup was all stays consistent between takes?
Unfortunately, we're only human and mistakes still happen. Sometimes a piece of paper looks mysteriously uncrumpled, or a crew member who accidentally stayed in the scene ended up getting missed by the editors. These mistakes aren't always obvious, but truly eagle-eyed observers can usually spot them.
