Not With My Pig, You Don't - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: During the award dinner, when Hattie says the line about "Zeke sprung from the ground like a big ol eggplant," watch the table in the back, next to the door. The man sitting there wipes his mouth raising a napkin 3 times in 3 separate shots. (00:19:00)

The Fresh Prince Project - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Will puts the last of his wall-shaking staples on the Malcolm X poster before the butler's interruption, the poster is almost perfectly flat. When Geoffrey walks to the poster, a bottom corner is noticeably raised. When Carlton walks to it, it's flat again, and raised when Will freaks out at the mirror. (00:07:40 - 00:10:00)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: In the first minutes, Rick is talking up the properties of some special fruit juice. He passes the glass to Magnum, who takes a sip from a slightly fuller glass than he was given, and passes back to him a glass with a level of juice that drops dramatically between shots, and keeps doing so throughout the entire scene. (00:04:20)

Continuity mistake: After the alien abduction, Emmet plans to lead a rescue mission and opens the gate asking "Who's coming with me?" During the sequence, the shadows change completely. At first he is not casting much of a shadow, then it reaches the metal doors, then it stops midway towards it. (00:20:55)

Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles mistake picture

Continuity mistake: En route from the front door of Wayne's mansion to the table in the Batcave, the pile of pizza boxes in Alfred and then in Mike's hands continues to change in size and number: at first the pizza girl delivers 11 boxes, Mike slams on the table just 8, but he brought down the stairs twice that amount (without counting through freeze-frame the precise numbers, it's simply obvious at first glance that the pile is bigger in some shots and the pizzas themselves are pictured of inconsistent size).

Dark Phoenix (2019)

Continuity mistake: In the shot just before the moment when Jean tells Scott "I'll always come back to you", she is shown lowering her hand, which has the thumb under the earlobe. When she does say the sentence, her hand is back up and with the thumb all the way in front of Scott's ear in a very jerky, easy to spot, lack of continuity. (00:21:40)

Dark Phoenix (2019)

Continuity mistake: After the "standard medical", Hank takes the heart rate monitor off Jean's left wrist and hand asking her how does she feel. She responds "I feel...good", hand raised, and in the next shot she has again the left hand resting on her tummy. (00:20:35)

Wu Assassins (2019)

Wu Assassins mistake picture

Legacy - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: In one shot (the one where the racist waitress slowly puts her hands on her hips), the sausage platter is turned differently than in the rest of the scene. The same mistake pops back later when father and son are confronted by the couple of white knights. (00:18:10)

Wu Assassins (2019)

Legacy - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: Kai's knife, once he inflicts the deadly stab, bears just a single streak of blood in one shot, and appears soaked in it in the following. And in the overhead shot immediately following him pulling out, the knife is missing from his hand entirely. (00:45:00)

Dark Phoenix (2019)

Continuity mistake: During the nice big dinner at the house that is going to be taken over by the aliens, the future leader, Margaret, tells her husband she's gonna go check on the dog. The man to her right holds the bottle of wine and gives it a big thumb up as he peruses it. In the reverse shot, he's pouring wine from that bottle with the former thumbs up hand, and back to the original view he's still in the same pose of approval as before, bottle switching hand again. Similar mistake happens when she, now assimilated, comes back: check out of the glasses in the hand of the guys at the table. (00:22:20 - 00:23:45)

Wu Assassins (2019)

Ladies' Night - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Christine's timeline starts "12 hours ago", so around noon, and it is taken from the ending of episode 1x06: Gu Assassins. But that scene happened early in the morning (Kai takes off for his trip, and after seeing them together, Zan goes to Alec, being even greeted with "Good morning Zan, you're up early").

Gu Assassins - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When we see the outcome of the fight between Jenny and Zan, Zan's very last move is a low spinning sweep kick. When Jenny lands, we see she has a cut above her left eyebrow, but nothing particularly significant. However in her next shot she's a crimson mask with that wound wider, blood that gushed down that cheek. (00:34:40)

Wu Assassins (2019)

Gu Assassins - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Lu Xin is downstairs playing with his lighter. The first shot ends with the lighter held still with the decorated side towards him, while the following one has the the solid gold side face him. Moreover, when Jenny sits down he goes from having both hands on the lighter, to one hand on his bicep. (00:18:30)

The Purple Taxi (1977)

The Purple Taxi mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Philippe Noiret is sitting in his chair, drily commenting on the display previously offered by Charlotte Rampling when she was bare-breasted. During the scene, the position of his glasses as he suckles on them changes frequently, and at one point the arms go from folded 90° to less angled/straight as the view changes.

Dumplin' (2018)

Dumplin' mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Jennifer Aniston is backstage at one of the beauty pageant contests she is a special guest for. They hand her the envelope with the winner. She is fixing her hair with the left hand, which turns into the right hand in the reverse shot.

Dumplin' (2018)

Continuity mistake: As the young Willowdean puts on the table the Dolly scrapbook for the party before the doorbell rings, in the closeup she's running her left hand along it with the pinky and ring finger off the side, while in the previous and following shot she has her hand fully pressed to the cover.

Dumplin' (2018)

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, with Dolly Parton playing on the car radio, we see the nose of the car driven by Aunt pass by a red Kia with a bunch of girls doing their exercises running on the sidewalk. A few seconds later though, from the passenger window we see they are passing by the same car and same girls while the song is playing and they sing along to it.

Someone Great (2019)

Continuity mistake: When we see Erin and Leah for the first time, they're talking and smoochin'. Despite the conversation being continuous, the reciprocal position of their hands changes abruptly between shots at the beginning (Erin's hand is on the outside of Leah's, then on the inside, then outside again). (00:05:25)

Death at Victoria Dock - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: As Miss Fisher gulps down her stiff drink thanking Butler the butler, she holds her hand in her lap all bent and twisted in a quirky claw shape. There was no indication of it in the previous shot, where she was simply rubbing her thumb. (00:06:35)

Jessica Jones (2015)

AKA Ladies Night - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Jessica tells Trish "I was never the hero you wanted me to be" you can see in the foreground Trish's back. When she turns around after saying "I'll get your money", hair is under her scarf that was not poking out before. (00:40:20)
