Visible crew/equipment: During the briefing Weyland says "But it's not on the ice, it's two thousand feet below it" it cuts to a shot behind Maxwell with an overview shot of the crew. If you look behind Maxwell you can see the tip of a head moving into picture. In the previous shot we could see no one was standing behind Maxwell, and it couldn't be Sebastian cause he went back to his seat.

Continuity: Close to the beginning, when the group is inside the pyramid below the sacrificial chamber, when the shot is from behind Lex and the others, note where the green light is, directly in the middle of the stairs. When it cuts to an overhead view, it's more to the left than the right.

Factual error: When the predator starts to kill Weyland, Weyland uses his oxygen tank as a makeshift flame thrower. Contrary to popular belief, oxygen does NOT burn. It only allows other things to burn. The three things needed for a fire are oxygen (which he had), fuel (which he did NOT have) and heat (from the flare he lit).
