Mallrats (1995)

Revealing mistake: When Brodie and TS are first approaching Jay and Silent Bob there is a very noticeable jump cut just before Brodie says "Hey Jay." [May only apply to the Blu Ray extended edition of the film.]. (00:33:15)

Storm Front: Part 1 - S5-E7

Revealing mistake: In the opening shot of the Washington Monument, the monument is very noticeably shaking left and right as the camera pans up (likely indicating that the monument and the background are a composite image). (00:01:00)

The Phalanx Covenant: Part 1 - S5-E1

Revealing mistake: The shot of police cars surrounding Sabretooth and him throwing one of them into the air is a recycled shot of the very first shot in the series from the season 1 episode "Night of the Sentinels, Part 1." It's even revealed a few minutes later in the episode that this isn't actually Sabretooth, but a Phalanx facsimile that has taken his form, which makes the fact that Sabretooth's actions are being recycled all the more dubious.

X-Men mistake picture

Family Ties - S4-E17

Revealing mistake: When Quicksilver is fidgeting inside his containment shell, the animators neglected to properly sync his body movement. You can see that his shoulders are not "connected" to his arms, as if his head and shoulders were separated from the rest of his body. (00:16:00)

X-Men (1992)

Family Ties - S4-E17

Revealing mistake: After the New Men have captured Magneto, Wolverine, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, the establishing shot of the High Evolutionary's headquarters is a recycled shot of when Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver first arrived at his headquarters a few minutes earlier in the episode, played on a loop (note the lightning strikes and the High Evolutionary's pink energy field being repeated). (00:05:35 - 00:12:40)

Family Ties - S4-E17

Revealing mistake: When the High Evolutionary is asking Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver to place their arms in his DNA scanner, his mouth looks like it is jumping off his face as he is speaking. (00:06:35)

The Lotus and the Steel - S4-E13

Revealing mistake: The footage of Jubilee flying off in the mini-jet is recycled footage of her flying Colossus back to Russia from the season 4 episode "Red Dawn." You can even make out Colossus' silhouette in the window over the passenger seat in one shot, even though Jubilee is supposed to be by herself. (00:07:35)
