Okay heres a real error in Generations: When Riker says "remove plank"
and Worf falls in both his knees are bloody. In the next scene we see
Worf in(on the bridge) his knees aren't bloody!!!

This is not correct, his knees are not bloodly as he falls into the water,
when Beverly is pushed overboard and worf falls backwards trying to catch
her there is something on his knees, but I suspect it's paint off the ship
rather then blood, because I don't see how he could have gotton two bloody
knees by falling into the water.

But you are correct that don't show in the next scene with Worf on the
bridge.

Simple, its Holo-paint. Evaporates as soon as you leave the deck.

First of all, his knees were not bloody at all, it was paint
from the sailship. They had only a short time to get the ship ready
and the paint was not dry yet, Worf scraped his knees and some of
the paint rubbed off, thats all. They didn't show it on his knees
when he was on the bridge because that would of looked just plain
stupid.

It wasn't blood; the sailing ship Paramount was borrowing had been freshly
painted to resemble the old Enterprise and Michael Dorn brushed against
the hull while he was down there.

No, this error has been discussed several times. Look closely at the side
of the ship. There is red paint there. Berman claims that Dorn got the
paint on his knees before he fell back into the water for that scene.

Interesting! But doesn't that still count as an error?

Guyz, c'mon...it was "holo paint". It disappeared as soon as he left
the holodeck.

What color was it? Because if it was fushia it was blood and if it was
red it was paint.
Don't remember.
