Please note: There are a few minor issues, such as Obi-Wan saying he hasn't used that name "since before you were born", among others, which can easily be attributed to character mistakes, ie. mis-remembering things, rather than "real" movie mistakes.

Mistake Continuity: After Anakin has told Windu that Palpatine is the Sith Lord, Windu gets on his ship which takes off. We see the ship's shadow moving on the ground right next to Anakin. When it cuts the shadow from the ship is gone. When it cuts again to a wider shot we see the ship's shadow suddenly appear again.

Mistake Continuity: When Anakin is denied the rank of master and he replies "what?", we see a ship near the bottom of the window that has just passed the window frame. In the next Anakin shot, the same ship is once again just passing the window frame.

Mistake Continuity: When Tarfful uncovers the escape pod for Yoda he throws the bushes to the ground next to the pod. When Yoda enters the top the bushes are gone.

Mistake Plot hole: At the beginning, when Anakin and Kenobi rescue Palpatine, the two Jedi ride an elevator to the "top of the control spire" to find Palpatine. However, when they leave this room (when the ship is tipping or falling out of the sky), they climb into an empty lift tube and start running down it. After the ship rights itself and the 3 are hanging, an elevator begins plummeting towards them. Where did this elevator come from? They came from the top of the spire, i.e. the top floor, so how did they end up with an elevator being above them?

Mistake Continuity: When the Emperor is throwing the pods down toward Yoda his position changes from standing on the edge of the pod to inside the pod between a few shots.

Mistake Audio problem: After the buzz droids land on Obi-Wan's starfighter, Obi-Wan says, "I'm hit. Anakin?" As he says, "Anakin?" his head is turned to the side, but you can see that the last word doesn't match his lips or the motion of his jaw.

Mistake Audio problem: After Anakin kills Count Dooku, Palpatine says, "Remember what you told me about your mother and the Sand People." In the next shot, his head is shown from behind, but if you watch closely, you can see that his jaw is moving as if he were talking, but nothing is heard. Use zoom for confirmation.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Anakin and Obi-Wan use the force to throw each other through the air, as Anakin lands on the panel, the stunt double is quite obvious.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Plo Koon gets blasted by his Clone Troopers, the exterior shots show he is in an Episode II starfighter (closed/pointed bow, no small rear window on cockpit canopy- best seen as the Emperor gives the order), yet the interior shots of his cockpit show he is inside an Episode III starfighter (forked bow, small rear window on canopy- same as Obi-Wan's starfighter).

Mistake Continuity: When the Emperor and Yoda flip backwards out of the pod from the "kickback" of the Force lightning the Emperor falls onto the sloped side of the pod.When they show him again he is hanging on the side of the pod with handles.(If you look at the pods each has a sloped side and a part with guardrail or handle)

Mistake Continuity: At the performance when Palpatine and Anakin are talking, Palpatine says "he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying" while turning his head to Anakin, then his head stops. When it cuts back his head is still turning.

Mistake Continuity: When Mace Windu departs to confront Palpatine, as the ship takes off, Anakin's position on the floor differs from the previous shot, seen from the lines on the floor.

Mistake Continuity: When Padmé is waiting for Anakin by the column, and also when she's talking to him, the floor around the column keeps changing between shots. For example, when Anakin runs to her, the red area around the column is much bigger than in the previous shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Obi-Wan and Yoda walk through the Jedi Temple after order 66, in the second shot, they are standing on a round circle on the floor, but in the previous shot, they were a few metres away from it.

Mistake Continuity: During the Sidiuos and Yoda battle, the number of missing pods off the wall isn't consistent between shots. Sometimes a few are missing, then a lot then back to a few.

Mistake Audio problem: After Anakin is appointed to the Jedi Council, Ki-Adi-Mundi says, "What about the droid attack on the Wookies?", but the first two words don't match the movement of his lips. (Even though he's an alien, his lips always move like the lips of a human.).

Mistake Continuity: When Anakin and Obi-Wan come to rescue Palpatine we see in the wideshot a battle ship in the window behind Palpatine. When it cuts to a closeup of Palpatine the ship is gone.

Mistake Continuity: When Anakin, Obi-wan and Palpatine are running through the hall and get stuck in the ray shields, Anakin is facing forward. When it cuts he is suddenly facing Palpatine.

Mistake Continuity: After Anakin has been turned down as a Master in the council, he is walking with Obi-Wan. While they are walking you can count them passing at least five windows. When it cuts to Obi-Wan saying "Anakin, I'm on your side, I didn't want to put you in this situation", you can see, by looking at the sun shining through the windows, that they have only passed three windows.

Mistake Continuity: When Anakin, Obi-Wan and Palpatine are hanging in the elevator shaft as Obi-Wan says "Too late, jump." we see him still holding around Anakin's shoulders. As it cuts he is suddenly by Anakin's waist level.
