Continuity mistake: Sam's shoes are light colored high heels while she is sitting on the stairs with John talking to Ted before he got mad and left, eventually ending up in Comic Con. They're black flats when she and John are looking for Ted all the way through to when John was hit by the Enterprise.

Continuity mistake: The hands of the adoption counselor Ted and Tammy Lynn are consulting with change positions from clasped to flat on her paperwork and back again as the shots cut.

Question: In one scene, there's a newspaper that says "Wednesday, August 26, 2015" at the top. Why would it say that when this film was released on June 26 of that year?

Answer: Films are basically never set exactly when they're released. Most likely they just picked a random date around the likely time of release, but scheduling changed. Alternatively they just picked an arbitrary date in the future for the newspaper, but a date in the recent past would have worked just as well.
