Continuity mistake: Level 12 "Grand Theft Scratchy" cutscene: After Senator Clinton congratulates Marge and Lisa for their great work a large sign falls on her, and when the bag appears with the keycard inside, in the closeup the bag's strap is lying at the back of the bag under its flap, but in the next shot that strap is now lying on the opposite side of the bag, at the front, and the bag's position on the sidewalk changes as well.

Continuity mistake: Level 15 "Five Characters in Search of an Author" cutscene: When Marge and her family walk over to Matt Groening, who's lying on the floor, we see that Marge has nothing on her back, but when Matt thanks Marge for saving him the empty baby carrier is now on Marge's back, though it vanishes again when Matt kneels in front of Lisa. As an aside, the baby carrier has two shoulder straps and a waist strap, but after Matt's escape when the carrier reappears on Marge the shoulder straps are gone, so it's pretty bizarre that Maggie could stay put in it.

Lonesome Ghosts mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Goofy searches through the dresser drawers one of the ghosts causes trouble, then Goofy breaks through the top of the dresser and winds up trapped inside, but when all four ghosts appear the dresser top is perfectly fine and that damage has vanished. Also, two of the drawers (one large and one small) fall out of the dresser, but as the four ghosts are pushing the dresser those two drawers have reappeared in their proper places.

Mr. Mouse Takes a Trip mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Mickey hides Pluto in his suitcase, the entire handle to the suitcase breaks off and Mickey tosses away the handle. This handle reappears unbroken when Mickey takes Pluto out of the suitcase and then quickly hides him again, though it's broken again in following shots. Then at the end, when Pete tosses both suitcases off the train Mickey's suitcase has the broken handle, but when it lands on Mickey and Pluto the handle reappears unscathed once again.

Continuity mistake: After Mickey hides Pluto in his suitcase in Burbank, Mickey picks up his cane and runs to the train, then when Mickey actually jumps onto the train caboose he's only carrying his suitcase, he does not have his cane, nor does he have Pluto's suitcase (which had been filled with bones) with him. The cane reappears on the train later, and at the end Pluto's suitcase mysteriously reappears when Pete throws it at the duo in Pomona.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix mistake picture

Continuity mistake: After the battle in the Hall of Prophecy, when Harry and the others land in the Death Chamber, Ginny is a good bit of distance away from Harry's feet in the side shot as they're all lying on the floor, but two shots later as they're starting to get up Ginny's head is now right beside Harry's knee.

The Little Mermaid mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At the start, when King Triton makes his appearance he's holding dolphin reins, and at first it's shown as two separate straps in Triton's hand as he tells Sebastian he's looking forward to the performance, but when Sebastian replies that it will be the finest concert he's ever conducted, Triton lets go of the rein and it's a single continuous strap.

Friends (1994)

The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Ross shows Chandler and Joey the can of "Carol's favorite beer" it's unopened as Ross makes a crack about how he "should have known," but in the next shot we see Ross lifting the can and drinking from it, even though he never actually pulled open the stay-tab between the two shots (viewed in widescreen). [In the extended version of the episode you see Ross open the can before taking a drink. In the standard version, the mistake is valid]. (00:09:55)
