Love Island Season 7 editing errors revealed
During episode 8 which aired on June 10, a noticeable slip appeared during a game of 'pucker or pie' in the Fiji Villa. Olandria Carthen stood in front of the audience and asked her fellow islanders, 'Which islander do you think is most likely to take a relationship to make it to the final?" In a hilarious yet awkward moment, the scene cuts to Carthen seated on the bleachers behind Cierra Ortega and Nic Vansteenberghe, reacting to the question with shock. Orange to blue
New Islander Vanna Einderson was seen chatting with TJ Palma during a Casa Amor episode. The scene showed her starting the conversation with an orange cup in hand which promptly switches to a blue one mid-conversation. The much-anticipated Casa Amor twist kicked off on the show in the episode aired on June 23.

Carthen's stint with editing errors continued in a subsequent episode when her former beau Taylor Williams pulled her in for a conversation after being paired up with Clarke Carraway in the Casa Amor shift. The scene started with Carthen in a black bikini which instantly switched to a brown one-piece mid-scene with no explanation. Huda Mustafa's side-eye
One of the major editing slips happened during a particular episode where Jeremiah Brown was seen bringing Iris Kendall and Andreina Santos breakfast in their dressing room, an action read as 'making a move' in the Love Island universe. The scene cuts to Brown's former flame Huda Mastafa making a side glance at the move. Many viewers pointed out gaps in this edit by claiming that Mustafa wasn't even present in the room for this to happen.
As per USA Today, a team of 30 editors and 20 producers (as of 2024) is responsible for making sure that the 24-hour-long footage recorded at the villa gets cut and parceled into an hour-long episode by the next evening.

"A lot of people look at conversations and they seem a little bit cut up or they seem very short. You're only seeing two to three minutes of maybe like two to three hour long conversations," explained Season 5 cast member Johnny Garcia in a TikTok posted on June 19. "So just remember that. It's easy to cut thing up, and it's easy to make things look a certain way." The show also makes use of opaque cups to avoid visible continuity errors that might be spotted with the liquid levels in transparent glasses.
New episodes of Love Island Season 7 are released daily (except Wednesdays) at 9 PM ET on Peacock.

Everyone is very, very bothered and pissed about that.' An insider revealed that a meeting will be held to decide how to handle the situation. They also emphasized, 'It doesn't look great at all for Cierra as a lot of us want to take her out of the show as soon as possible.' The source also mentioned that racial slurs are completely unacceptable to the Love Island USA team. 'You can't use words like this, you can't use racial slurs, and we can't accept that, that is so is it possible to post something like this and not expect any consequences? We ask everyone to be respectful and to not use certain words, but we can't control what they did in the past,' the person added. Several alleged posts by Ortega featuring racial slurs resurfaced online. In one of them, she talked about getting Botox and how it helps her stop frowning when she's thinking or focusing. 'Botox isn't for everyone but I love it for me!!! I am incredibly expressive with my face and I catch myself frowning for no reason throughout the day when I'm focusing on something or thinking too hard lol,' Ortega wrote. However, she went on to make an insensitive comment aimed at Asians while describing her smile. 'I can also be a little c***** when I laugh/smile so I love getting a mini brow lift to open up my eyes and get that snatched look,' Ortega added. Soon after the posts went viral, Love Island USA Season 7 fans began posting against the contestant and demanded her removal from the show. Will she be removed? Well, only time will tell. Cierra Ortega is facing backlash after several alleged social media posts resurfaced, showing her using racial slurs.

Here's How Jurassic World: Rebirth Was Supposed to End, Were Scarlett Johansson or Jonathan Bailey Going to Die?
In Jurassic World: Rebirth, Mahershala Ali's character, Duncan Kincaid, beats the odds and survives a terrifying encounter with the deadly Distortus rex. But fans may be surprised to learn that Duncan was not always meant to live through the film's finale. Director Gareth Edwards told USA Today that Duncan's heroic moment was initially planned as his last. 'My first gut feeling was to kill him, and that's what I tried to do,' Edwards said. Even Ali agreed with that direction at first. Studio pushed for a happy ending According to screenwriter David Koepp, early drafts of the Jurassic World Rebirth script had Duncan dying much earlier. Edwards added, 'The director's cut had him dying, and I played it to the studio, and they said, 'Is there any version where we could just see him living?'' At first, Edwards was hesitant. But he created a new version where Duncan survives. He admitted, 'Because it's written and filmed for him to die, all the little tropes and subconscious things you would do to set that up are happening in the movie.' This twist made Duncan's survival a surprise for the audience. Edwards said he was moved when he watched the film with a crowd and heard them cheer as Duncan's flare went up. He added that it was one of those times when the studio's suggestion turned out to be right. Here's why the change made sense David Koepp supported the change, too. He stated, 'Duncan became a bigger part and a more interesting character, and we have a fantastic actor playing him, so killing him 90 seconds before the end of the movie would not have made a lot of sense.' In the final Jurassic World Rebirth cut, Duncan draws the mutant Distortus rex away so that Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey), and the Delgado family can escape. It appears he sacrifices himself, but he survives and signals his group with a flare before joining Zora and Henry on the boat. No 'rex machina' ending this time Unlike past Jurassic films, the Distortus rex does not get killed in Jurassic World Rebirth. Edwards said he considered bringing back the iconic T. rex for a final fight and wondered if that was something they should do. However, the visual effects supervisor talked him out of it, reminding him that in all the previous movies, the T. rex always turns up to save the day and audiences expect that. Edwards referred to this typical twist as 'rex machina' and decided to leave it out, saying that skipping it was one way to make Rebirth different.
