During the lobster dinner scene, Bob leans over to kiss Maggie with his napkin already stuck into his shirt collar but seconds later he's seen tucking the napkin in.
Maggie presents Ike with a gift of the 'Miles Davis' album "Kind of Blue." The closeup shot is that of the original 1950's album cover. The camera cuts to a shot of the two of them in the doorway, and the album cover has changed to the "Columbia Jazz Masters" reissue cover from much later.
When Maggie is presumably listening to the tape she stole from Ike (Richard Gere), the audio track plays Miles Davis's song "it never entered my mind" which does not appear as a song listing on the tape.
The address on Maggie's truck reads 106 N. Main as the address for the hardware store. However, when Ike rides into town the address above the door reads 104.
In the scene after the hula party, Ike's lei moves back and forth on his neck. It goes from being perfectly in place to moved back farther several times.
As Ike is leaving the bar with Maggie after leaving Maggie's dad in the truck you can clearly see Ike's convertible has a Maryland license plate. But back when he left New York for Maryland he was driving that same car. It should have a New York license plate.
During the softball game, the pitches appear to be coming in slow and with an arch which would indicate slow-pitch. In slow-pitch, there is no stealing; therefore, Cory Fleming would not have been allowed to steal 3rd base. All the catcher had to do was to throw to 2nd base to force out Fleming.
During one of Maggie's wedding videos that Ike is watching, we see Maggie running away from the altar with the ring bearer (a young boy) being dragged behind her by holding onto the train of her wedding gown. The video he watches has points of view that would suggest at times the bride is holding the video camera and pointing at the boy being dragged, and it shows another point of view as if the little boy is holding the video camera and videotaping the bride running out of the church.
Ike's controversial article was written before he got the idea for it. In the beginning of the movie, the newspaper article George Swilling is reading while Ike hits on the woman playing darts is titled "What's to see in blind dates," but the content of that article is read by the montage of characters one scene later.
When Ike first comes into the salon the newspaper article is on the counter, when Peggy is done with his hair the article is tapped to the mirror.
When Ike and Maggie drive away from the tavern in Ike's convertible, after putting Maggie's father in his truck to "sleep it off", their hair should be blowing during the drive in the open convertible - especially Maggie's long mane. Their hair is perfectly still.
at approx. 26 mins, Ike's crab hammer slips backwards out of his hand, hitting a statue of a bloodhound in the living room-and barking is heard straight away. Moments later, the live bloodhound (on dining room floor) is thrown a piece of crab.
When Maggie and Peggy are driving to the softball game it is raining when they get to the game it appears as it hasn't rained at all.
When Ike drives into town, the camera and cameraman can be seen reflected on his car.
USA Today is based in Arlington, Virginia, not New York City.
When Maggie is describing Bob's proposal, she refers to being at an "Oriole" game. When people use the actual name of Baltimore's Major League Baseball team, they always refer to the "Orioles." (The team's nicknames are the "O's" or the "Birds.")
Maggie accuses Ike of slandering her in his controversial column. As the words were written rather than spoken, the correct term would be "libel", not "slander".
