Ghostbusters: Afterlife mistake picture

Other mistake: When Gary is about to test the trap check the bus door on the right: there's a reflection of what seems to be his shirt, but it's a long sleeved wrinkled shirt, not the short sleeved he's wearing. What's even more bizarre: when Gary moves around, the reflection stays completely still and, drumroll, a shot later, from the very same angle, the reflection disappears. Either it was a crew member hiding, or a CGI-made reflection placed to hide some unwanted crew or equipment reflection.

Visible crew/equipment: When Gary opens the trap next to the 2 school buses, he is wearing a cable attached to an earpiece on the right side of his head. The kind of cable actors wear to receive instructions from the crew. There's no reason plot-wise for him to be wearing it (he isn't receiving any instructions from the kids, who are right next to him).
