I hate continuity errors in editing, they distract me from the movie. When you pick up on such errors, they're impossible to forget. If you know that a certain film is packed full of editing mistakes, can you still call it a good film? I know of lots of great movies with obvious mistakes (I don't want to mention any in case it ruins someone's viewing of the film), as I'm sure you do too
So when you notice any mistakes or "goofs", do you try to ignore them? Or do you take them into account when judging the movie?
