Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Revealing mistake: At the first challenge, just before the Horntail makes its appearance, there is a tight close-up of the egg as Harry stands in the stone "doorway" in the background, on the left. Clearly it is not Daniel Radcliffe, but his stand-in (his face differs and he has a shorter, bowl-type haircut) who is standing there, for this one specific shot.

Suggested correction: I watched this scene more than once and I never noticed any stand-in. I would need a picture to prove it. Besides, why would they need a stand-in in this scene?

Continuity mistake: When the Polyjuice Potion wears off, Barty Crouch Jr. resumes his own appearance from impersonating Mad-Eye Moody. It is difficult and painful. Every other time we see this transformation in other characters, it is easy and uneventful.

Suggested correction: It is probably a strain for him since he has been in the shape of Moody for a year. Or he is trying to prevent it somehow, or it is withdrawal symptoms. It's a magic potion; it could be anything.

Continuity mistake: After Wormtail performs the Avada Kedavra curse and then raises the "bone of the father," he places Voldemort's wand inside the left side of his coat, before he slices off his right hand.

Question: Is it true that Voldemort's eyes are not red in the movies so that he will be less scary for younger viewers?

Answer: Not at all. In fact, David Heyman made the decision for his eyes to be blue in the films for him to be more scary! They felt that his red eyes in Sorcerer's Stone did not show enough emotion to make him an evil character. It was felt in Goblet of Fire that the light blue eyes would be perfect to show his evil in the moonlight, and they kept it on for later films.

Answer: True story.
