Johnny Mnemonic (1995)

Continuity mistake: When Johnny is about to download the data he puts on some kind of headset held in place with an elastic band around the back of his head. The next shot is a close up of him plugging a wire into the datajack on the back of his head. The elastic band is nowhere to be seen even though the next shot shows that the wire is nearly touching it.

Continuity mistake: When the bus passes Poseidon and he disappears, the people walking near him also disappear. There is an Asian couple walking from left to right across the shot that should have been still there after Poseidon is gone. Sloppy SFX that sort of spoils the effect of a god being able to vanish.

Suggested correction: If you watch closely, just before Hagrid give him the tail you can see his hands are dirty and you don't see them again after that.
