Girls Just Want to Have Fun Goofs/Mistakes

Movie Goof (revealing mistake): About an hour into the film there's a montage of Jeff and Janey practicing in the park. In one sequence Maggie is sitting in a tree looking on as Jeff jumps off of it. Jeff lands and turns to look at her. The shot of her reaction was flipped, as the text on the Pepsi can she's holding is backwards, and the tree she's sitting on is now on her left (screen right) instead of her right (screen left). This was obviously done to match the direction of the shot of Jeff looking at her.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Jeff's shirt changes from red to blue/purple after the first practice session with Janie.
Movie Goof (revealing mistake): During the first audition, when Lynn gets stepped on and thrown on the floor by her dance partner, behind them you can see Jeff's and Janey's dance doubles.
Movie Goof (revealing mistake): Obvious stand-ins for Janey and Jeff during the dance auditions.
Movie Goof (crew or equipment visible): When Zach knocks on the door of the bathroom when Janey is taking a bath, you can clearly see the top of a crew members head.
Movie Goof (continuity error): When they announce the contest for the dance off, the spoon that Janey is holding repeatedly switches hands between shots.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Janey's hair is smooth & straight when she's at "The Court", but noticeably more frizzy & puffy when she's talking to Jeff outside her apartment. (after she returns home from "The Court")
Movie Goof (continuity error): When Jeff and his dad are at the dining room table, and his dad is asking him, "Can you win this thing?" the top of the sugar container is alternately on/off between shots.
Movie Goof (audio/visual unsynchronized): Natalie's words don't match what she is saying when she tells the punk at her party to give her her cardboard cut-out.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Janey's hair is different in the dance contest than when she and Lynne are on their way to the contest; it is more permed (and longer), and is tied up differently.
Movie Goof (continuity error): While shopping in the mall, both Janey & Lyn are carrying a plastic bag. When they leave to pass out the invitations, they no longer have their bags.
Movie Goof (continuity error): After their first rehearsal, Janey tells Lyn how she was with Jeff for over an hour. This is impossible since they are clearly only in the room for no more than 5 minutes - the same song is playing the whole time through that scene, and is still playing when Jeff leaves.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Janey's shirt when she leaves for "The Court" is longer & tucked in, but after she gets there it is cropped. It is tucked in again after she arrives home.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Jeff leaves their first rehearsal with out his radio.
Movie Goof (continuity error): During the dance competition Jeff is seen doing the same dance move on the television in the bar, in two different shots.
Movie Goof (continuity error): When Lynne is in the mall getting ready to go to the printing shop her shoes are brown with pink socks, and when they start passing out invitations her shoes are black with white colored socks
Movie Goof (continuity error): Janey's top during final dance competition.
Movie Goof (audio/visual unsynchronized): At Janie and Jeff's first practice, the music starts playing without Jeff actually turning on his radio.
