Screen shot Revealing: In the Death Star corridor leading to the Millennium Falcon, just before Han says "Didn't we just leave this party?" you can see Carrie Fisher and Mark Hammill's shadows on the wall as they await their cue to run in.

Mistake Audio problem: When Vader is talking to an Imperial officer in the hangar in the Death Star, when the officer says, "It must be a decoy, sir. Several of the escape pods have been jettisoned." his head is shown from behind, but his profile shows his mouth is moving before the words are heard. (Time)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When the Falcon is in the Death Star hangar, a scanning crew is sent aboard to find passengers, one of the stormtroopers walks straight past the camera and its shadow is visible on his leg. (Time)

Screen shot Revealing: When Luke and C3PO are outside of the farm searching for R2D2, a droid passes in front of them. You can see the thread which pulls it. Submitted by Dr Wilson

Mistake Revealing: When Luke first ignites his lightsaber, he turns it from the right side of the screen to the left side. When the blade is facing the screen, the lightsaber appears flatter than in the previous shot. Submitted by Jack Kaltenbach

Screen shot Continuity: When Leia shoots a hole in the detention area wall for their escape, the hole is not big enough to jump through, but when they all jump in, the hole is much bigger. (Time)

Screen shot Visible crew/equipment: You can see the arm of the crane used to lower the torture device through the door when it is going into Leia's room.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where the "torture" robot goes to get information from the princess, if you look carefully on the side of the syringe you will read monoject, which is an American hypodermic syringe manufacturer.

Mistake Continuity: After Darth Vader had killed Obi-Wan and walks towards the group running onto the Millennium Falcon, Luke shoots the dock door control, successfully closing it, fully blocking Vader's path. In the shot immediately following the door is closing once again.

Mistake Continuity: Towards the end of the film, the Death Star rounds the planet towards the moon in order to destroy it. The movie continually reverts back to the Death Star where a commander informs us of the time until the Death Star is in range of the rebel base. It will then show the panel with the Death Star's co-ordinates and how long until contact. However, it does not count down in minutes, it counts down in seconds. E.g the commander will say "40 minutes till contact" yet the screen will start at 40 seconds and count down, 39, 38, 37. Regardless of whether or not they use the same time system as us, the time would have run out far too quickly.

Screen shot Continuity: When a stormtrooper stands guard by the door of the control room, the door is low enough for someone to hit their head on. But when C-3PO wants to take R2-D2 "down to maintenance", there is plenty of clearance between the trooper's head and the bottom of the door. This has nothing to do with camera angles, as Threepio is the same height as the trooper, and walks out of the room with no problem.

Mistake Revealing: When they are diving into the trash compactor on the Death Star, one can see the metal bars of the grid, that had previously been cut through, wobble like rubber when one of the team brushes against them.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene after Carrie Fisher inputs the Death Star plans into R2-D2 the droid moves towards C3-PO along a corridor. As you watch you can follow R2's movements until the camera cuts away. If the shot were to continue it seems clear that R2 would have banged into a piece of set protruding from the side of the corridor.

Mistake Revealing: When Darth Vader flies out of the Death Star you see the light falling on the back of the ship change as he clears the bay. Later, when he regains control of his spinning fighter the same shot with the falling shadow is used to show him flying away.

Mistake Revealing: Before Leia and Luke swing across the chasm in the Death Star, Luke shoots one of the stormtroopers. The laser beam misses the trooper, but he screams loudly and falls anyway.

Mistake Continuity: Subtitling and translation can also lead to weird mistakes. Han Solo says (twice in the special edition) that he dumped his cargo because "Even I get boarded sometimes", and in Dutch cinema's the subtitles read as if he said "Even I get bored sometimes".

Mistake Continuity: Special Edition DVD. When Luke, Obi-Wan and droids arrive at space bar in Mos Eisley, notice the herder with white jacket followed by dinosaur-creature on a leash and then the R2 unit. In the next shot dinosaur and R2 are there, but the herder has disappeared. (Time)

Mistake Continuity: In Mos Eisley, when Ben and Luke are interrogated by the stormtroopers, the background changes. At the beginning and at the end of that scene, the street is large and full of people and beasts, but at other times, the street is small. Submitted by Dr Wilson

Screen shot Continuity: When C-3PO and R2-D2 are standing next to each other in Luke's garage, the position of R2's head changes between several shots.
