Mistakes

Edward drives past the waterfall before he and Bella arrive at the baseball field and park nearly on it. But the field "moves" so that they walk past the waterfall when they meet the other Cullens. See more...

Trivia

In the books, Edwards is described as being Bella's "Vampire Angel". In the scenes shot in the science lab, Edward is sitting with his shoulders hunched and behind him there is a stuffed white owl. In some shots you can't see the body of the owl and it gives the impression that Edward has white wings. See more...

In the scene Edward comes into Bella's room and kisses her, Bella is at first wearing sweatpants. Then she is wearing shorts instead when they kiss. [Actually, Bella can be seen wearing shorts at the beginning of the scene which is at 1:13:53. You can see a part of her leg, so she is not wearing sweatpants.]

The way the house is set up when Bella is talking to her dad about going to play baseball with Edward is off. The kitchen table is no longer pushed up against the wall, and the front entry doorway enters to the living room, instead of a hallway, like in the scene where Bella comes home and slams the door. [There is both a dining room and a kitchen in the Swan's house. If you make an left immediately after coming in the front door, you turn into the kitchen. If, however, you were to walk straight forward into the livingroom and then turn left you would end up in the diningroom. The kitchen and diningroom are side by side, and they each have a table.]

In the scene at the hospital near the end of the movie, when Bella regains consciousness, she has flashbacks as her mother talks to her. But if you look over her mother's right shoulder (from Bella's perspective), you will see a television; showing the scenes containing the destruction of James and Bella tumbling down a flight of stairs, which are being played in a loop so that they could simply switch to a second camera to capture the flashback scenes. [This wasn't a mistake. They do this intentionally throughout the film. If you look closely at the rest of a room, a picture hanging on the hospital wall, is of the ballet studio, and there is a picture in Bella's room of a wolf, hinting at Jacob. Also, that television in the hospital shows clips of the home video of Bella when she is little. These are some hidden jabs and nods at the audience, and for people to pick out, not mistakes. ]
Edit
In the Dance Studio, there is a point where James rams Edward's head into the mirrors, shattering the surface. However, Edward's reflection on the shattered surface remains intact, instead of being a fractured reflection, as would have been the case when a mirror shatters. [This doesn't have to be a mistake. The glass in the mirror might shatter but stay in place, thus not fracture the image that much.]
Edit Time
When Edward jumps out of the window, he drags a tree with him, but he isn't very close to it. Also when Edward jumps, he stays level to the ground. Just because he is a vampire it never means that he can disobey the laws of gravity. [So who made you the expert on vampires? They seem to disobey nature laws all the time; they don't age, go at superhuman speeds (or even faster) stop sliding cars by hand, just to name a few.]
Edit Time
In the scene where Bella is talking to Edward just after she comes out of the doctor's office (when Edward, Carlisle and Rosalie are talking), you can very faintly see the rims of her contact lenses. I'm watching on Blu-Ray which makes it more noticeable). [How is this a mistake? Lots of people wear contact lenses.]
Edit Corrected by rswarrior
During the baseball scene, Carlisle's scarf changes from plain gray to gray and black striped. It also goes from hanging loose to wound around his neck, then back to hanging loose. [THis is not true. THe second part is true, but the first part isn't. It just seems grey because the camera is not focused on him and the colours blur together.]
Edit
When Bella is in the hospital and she looks for Edward, he has his head tilted to the right. When they show him again, he has his head to the left. [In the moment that the camera is off him, there's plenty of time for even a normal person to tip their head to the other side, much less a vampire who moves at lightning speed.]
Edit Corrected by White Lock
When Edward takes Bella to meet his family, it shows them cooking for her. They all look up, and Rosalie says, "Get a whiff of that" and then Esme says, "Here comes the human!" But Esme's mouth doesn't move: she just keeps smiling. It doesn't sound like Rosalie talking, so it has to be Esme that said it, but her mouth doesn't move from a smile. [Her mouth moves, she just speaks while smiling and says it in an undertone to Carlisle, so it's not as distinct.]
Edit Corrected by White Lock Time
In the baseball scene, Alice and Esme are wearing baseball caps that visibly have a C for Cullen on them. Rosalie is wearing a baseball cap too. But why does Rosalie's cap have a G on it instead of a C? [This isn't trivia, it's a question. Rosalie's last name is Hale, so if there's not a C then one would think it'd be an H.]
Edit Corrected by Phixius
In the hospital scene towards the conclusion of the movie, Bella's nasogastric feeding tube isn't taped to her nose properly. As it dangles out of her nose, it is clear that the prop does not have the tubes going through her esophagus and into her stomach, as a real tube would. This misstep has actually led some people to assume it is some sort of breathing apparatus, which it is not.  . [IT IS a nasal cannula delivering oxygen. It is NOT a nasogastric tube to empty the contents of her stomach.]

When Jacob Black comes to Bella's house with Billy Black, Edward Cullen had just fixed the front side of Bella's car. Jacob Black can quickly see the fix, though it is obscured by Bella standing in the way, and also he seems to be checking out the back side of the car. [The dented part of the truck was actually over the back tire. That's why Jacob was looking in that direction.]
Edit Corrected by emusrock7
When Tyler's van comes skidding towards Bella, she is standing up against her truck. When Edward races next to her, she is crouching. [This is because before Edward stops the van he gets her out of the way, causing her to crouch down next to him.]
Edit
In the baseball scene, when Edward and Emmet both go for the ball, they crash into each other and fall to the ground. Once on the ground, Edward says, "Why you dick," and sticks his middle finger up at Emmet. [And how is this a mistake? If anything, it's trivia.]
Edit Corrected by Brad Time
In the cafeteria scene when Edward is not at school, Bella looks over to the Cullen's table. If you observe Rosalie extremely carefully, she takes something to her mouth and eats it as if she were human. She is a vampire, and she is not meant to eat anything. It happens again sometimes in other scenes. [It's not that they CAN'T eat our food. They just typically don't. But they will do it from time to time to appear to fit in. Edward even does it in the book to prove the point to Bella. So while they don't HAVE to eat normal food, it's not a mistake if they APPEAR to.]
Edit Corrected by Garlonuss Time
When Bella is asking Edward how he knew where she was in the restaurant, you can see the outline of her brown contacts. [Nothing in the movie ever reveals that the character of Bella doesn't wear contacts. Bella could easily wear contacts herself.]
Edit
In the Cullen's garage scene Esme is actually not in the scene (this also has been revealed by the director Catherine) although Edward refers to her being there and throws one of Bella's jackets to her. [Just because she was not actually there isn't a mistake. They didn't show someone else and call them Esme. It is very common to have stand-ins for actors off screen. This would be trivia not a mistake.]
Edit Corrected by shortdanzr
It is explained in the second movie, the whole treaty between the Cullens and the wolves. If one of the Cullens bites a human, the treaty is off and the wolves can attack the Cullens. That treaty was forged generations ago, so why was the treaty not off when Dr. Cullen bit all of his "children"? [Carlisle only bit Esme, Edward, and Rosalie, and THAT was all before the treaty was made. He hadn't bitten anyone since. Alice and Jasper were created by other vampires and joined with the Cullen family after they had left Forks the first time.]
Edit
Early in the movie, Bella is sat around the table with her friends as they teasingly say, "My girlfriend!" Then one of the boys runs up behind her and kisses her on the cheek. If you watch Bella's reaction, she barely even flinches. She has only been a student at the school a short time. Don't you think this is an odd under reaction for someone who has just had wet lips of a total stranger pressed on them from behind? [Matter of opinion. Everyone has their own personality and their own reactions to social situations. Her reaction is no more a mistake than is the guy kissing her in the first place.]
Edit Corrected by Phixius
In the Ballet Studio, when James bites Bella's left arm, there is nothing on it, but, when Edward is sucking the venom out, there is a bracelet. Look at her arm when James bites it, then you'll first notice it just after Edward throws James against the mirror. [Have another look. Bella is indeed wearing the narrow silver cuff bracelet (open back with two ends) when James bites her. As her palm is facing up, one end of the cuff bracelet is beside his mouth and the other end is visible beside his ring finger. The cuff bracelet may be easy to miss because the open back is at the center of her wrist, and it's rather dimly lit. ]
