Continuity mistake: The Swann residence has changed from the first film. Although the house looks exactly the same, the street and landscaping are completely different. An identical replica of the house was built in a different location for the second and third film.

Continuity mistake: During the room-by-room search in the Pentagon, Kevin Costner deliberately spills coffee on his uniform to avoid the witnesses seeing him. There is a huge wet spot on his left rear and down the back of his pant leg. A few seconds later, after he has excused himself to go to his office to change his uniform, he is seen in the hallway, only now the coffee stain is visibly smaller and more on the front of the pant leg.

Continuity mistake: The overall timeline of the film is about twelve months but it is inconsistent as far as the seasons. When Blomkvist arrives at the Vanger's island, it is the dead of winter with deep snowfall. A short while later, when Blomkvist is talking to the detective on a pay phone (who asks if he is surviving the winter weather), the snow is gone and the deciduous trees have no leaves, but a few minutes later, when the scene cuts to Henrik Vanger being rushed to the hospital, it is suddenly the middle of summer, sunny and the trees are in full bloom. When Lisbeth arrives on the island, and she and Blomkvist are sitting outside at night talking, the trees close to the house are bare and a howling wind can be heard in the background, but the next day trees have leaves. Some weeks later, when Lisbeth saves Bloomkvist from Martin, it is winter again, with heavy frost on the ground and trees are bare once more. A little while after that, when Lisbeth and Blomkvist go to find Harriet, trees on the street are in full bloom. A day or two later, when Blomkvist is talking to Harriet in the park, it is apparently now early spring because the smaller deciduous trees are only just beginning to sprout new leaves while some bigger ones have none at all. At the very end, it's just before Christmas again.

Continuity mistake: Just after Houdini returns to the United States from his European tour, he stages a publicity stunt. The lady in the apartment opens her window shade and sees Houdini hanging upside down, directly outside the window. When it cuts to an outside shot, he is now suspended above the roof line, where the woman would not be able to see him.

Continuity mistake: At the end, when Martin has been shot and appears to be dead, he tries to shoot Laura. He then dies, holding the gun in his hand. It's still in his hand when Laura gets up to attend to Ben, who is unconscious by the front door. The shot changes, and Martin is now lying in a different position, the gun nowhere to be seen.

Continuity mistake: When Caesar Flickerman is interviewing Katniss on TV, a chunk of her up-swept hairdo keeps changing, hanging down next to her left cheek in one shot, then it disappears in a close-up, then it's hanging down again. (00:56:15)

Continuity mistake: In the first film, "National Velvet," the Pie, Velvet Brown's horse that ran in the Grand National, was a gelding (neutered). In the sequel, the Pie has somehow become a stallion again and sires a colt many years later that Velvet's niece names Arizona Pie.

Continuity mistake: At the fox hunt, when Marnie rides away and is chased by Lil, Marnie's hair in the close-ups has come undone and is flowing straight back. Whenever the scene cuts to a long shot, the rider, obviously a stunt double, has her hair tied back in a loose pony-tail.

Continuity mistake: When the tributes are entering the arena on horse-drawn chariots, the spacing between the vehicles keeps changing from being far apart (in the long shot) to bunched up in closer angles. This is not just because the horses either sped up or slowed down because the distance is always perfectly even between each chariot. (00:30:50)

Easy come, easy go - S3-E9

Continuity mistake: At the furniture show, when Carrie is introducing Big and Natasha to Aiden, Carrie accidentally spills her coffee on Big. A coffee spot that splashed on Carrie's upper blouse keeps appearing and disappearing throughout the scene.

Continuity mistake: After arriving in Hogsmeade, when Harry is talking to Aberforth Dumbledore, the table by the window has two chairs on one side of the table. A few minutes later, there's only one chair on that side, and the other chair is now at the end where there was previously none at all. (00:28:00)

Continuity mistake: Ken's mother makes his jockey shirt using dark blue and gold as their racing colors. When Ken rides Thunderhead in his first race, Ken's jockey shirt is now light green and beige and the design is different. Ken's family owns Thunderhead, and race horse owners must have specific registered racing colors and patterns. Ken would not suddenly be wearing a differently-colored shirt.

Continuity mistake: As Edward and Jacob are working to revive Bella just after she gives birth, Bella's eyes keep changing from being open and unblinking to tightly closed. The "making of" documentary on the "DVD Extra", showed a life-size dummy of an emaciated Bella with closed eyes that was used in more physical scenes. You can tell it's the dummy whenever Bella is shown with her eyes shut.

Continuity mistake: When the T-rex is attacking the vehicle with the kids inside, Alan gets out of the other car. Even though it is pouring rain and Alan is standing perfectly still, no raindrops are seen hitting his solid, medium-colored shirt. It stays perfectly dry, even though there is nothing overhead that is shielding him from the rain. It is only after the scene cuts to him at the other car that the shirt is suddenly drenched. The rain is obviously CGI.

Resistance - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Casey Durwin deliberately stalls his motorized wheelchair in front of the Phoenix Group convoy (so Jim Shannon can slip into the last vehicle), his chair's position keeps changing. From the front angle, the chair is directly centered in the middle of where the truck is. When seen from Malcolm's view on the side, Durwin's chair is now partially clear of the truck's front end, then it's back in the middle.

Continuity mistake: When Molly (Sandra Dee) grabs the letters she had hidden in the suitcase under the bed, her dress is still unzipped in the back. After ranting at her mother for having read the letters, she throws them into the fireplace, only now her dress is completely zipped up.

Continuity mistake: As Bella walks down the aisle during the wedding ceremony, a single strand of her hair has gotten caught in the right-hand corner of her mouth, then it disappears, then it is back again. (This is harder to see on DVD than it was on the movie screen.) (00:13:40)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: When Skye, Josh, and the other teens reach the waterfall, Skye says she's taking the shorter (and more dangerous) route. After the others have left to take the longer path, Skye strips down to her bikini, drops her outer clothes on the ground, then jumps off a 45-foot cliff into the water below, with Josh following her. When they meet up with the other teens shortly after, Skye is suddenly fully dressed again, even though her clothing was left atop the cliff, and her wet hair is now dry.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: At the waterfall, after jumping off the cliff and into the water, Skye leads Josh to the rock carvings. Josh's wet hair keeps changing position from being completely slicked back, to partially covering his forehead, to being completely forward over his brow.

Continuity mistake: When Maggie and "Sharon" are having a picnic in the city park, they have a large wicker picnic basket. After they are done, and are walking home through the park, the picnic basket is no where to be seen. They have apparently just left it behind.
