Toy Story (1995)

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene in Andy's room, Woody's expression is semi-smiling with his mouth closed. Then, when 'You've Got A Friend In Me' plays and Andy takes him out of the room, Woody's expression changes to a blank stare with his mouth semi-open. When Andy returns to his room and places Woody on the bed, his expression is back to the first one with mouth closed. It was not established yet that Woody was 'alive', so his expression shouldn't have been changing at this point.

The World is Not Enough mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Just after Bond's BMW is sawn in half by the chopper, he says "Q's not gonna like this." In the close-up of him saying this, his hands (holding a gun) are not held up in front of his face. In the very next shot, viewed from behind, his hands are held high up and pointing towards the helicopter overhead. (01:32:02)
