Superman II mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Before the villains arrive at the Daily Planet, Lois' hair is fluffy and her fringe has a straight cut. When the scene ends, her hair is shorter, and her fringe has some stylish cuts. Also, Jimmy's hair alternates between very short and long, due to Richard Lester's reshoots.

Continuity mistake: When Dr. F meets Igor and says "You were sent by Herr Falkstein, weren't you?", the expression on Igor's face from a side view doesn't match the immediate following the front shot (smiling / serious). The rest of the shots changing back to front do match.
