Corrected entry: When the eagle first picks up Thorin, we can see all four front talons grasping him. In the next scene, we see Thorin's leg dangling free. When the eagles are about to land, all four talons are grasping him again.

Correction: First, it's not clear what the mistake is supposed to be here: what does Thorin's leg position have to do with how many talons the eagle is grasping him with? If you mean that sometimes the eagle is holding both of Thorin's legs and sometimes only one leg, you may be right, but we also see the eagle shifting its grip at least once, and the camera doesn't stay on Thorin for the entire flight to the Carrock. So it is entirely possible that the eagle shifted its grip a few times during the flight, resulting in whatever difference in grip and/or leg position you spotted.
