Continuity mistake: As Poirot stands from the late dinner with the young socialites to go talk to Inspector Japp next to the door, he leaves his napkin on the table. The napkin changes between shots, going from mostly straight to crumpled (when Mildred says "How dreadful!") to straight again. (00:22:20)

Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
Continuity mistake: As the two porters are carrying the piece of furniture, the draping on top of it goes all the way down one side when they have just unloaded it from the van, and the opposite side when they are bringing it up Whitehaven Mansions' stairs getting cranky at the doorman. (00:01:40)

Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
Four and Twenty Blackbirds - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When the milkman places the third bottle on Mr. Gascoigne's steps, they are placed in the sun. When the neighbour approaches, the whole road shows no particular sunlight. Which is fine, as a sudden change of that kind is ordinary. When the other neighbour pops by the corner and inquires, there's a close-up of the bottles, and again there's visible and directional light, pointed differently than the first instance. (00:08:45)

Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
Continuity mistake: During the conversation with Laverton-West at the pool, in the close-ups of Poirot and Japp there are always two gentlemen chatting poolside near the bench where the politician dropped the towel. In wider shots, that's not always the case - plus, one of them walks away without a towel but he's back wearing it. (00:27:50 - 00:28:50)

Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Continuity mistake: During the battle with Grewishka in the alley, the brute punches a hole in the asphalt and one into the tiles and concrete wall. However, after Alita axe kicks him from above and slides behind him to grab Ido's weapon, there are good views of the alley and no trace of the damage is present.

Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Continuity mistake: As Alita has disposed of quite a few Hunters, the female called Screwhead and some black dude next to her with a yellow arm are shown in a closeup standing from their seats and prepare to intervene. But if you look back just a few seconds before at the beginning of the fight, Yellow Arm Dude was one of the first Alisha kicked to the curb, and Screwhead was standing already, blade in hand. (01:01:35)

Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Continuity mistake: When Grewishka smashes through the floor of Kansas (the bar, that is) you can spot at the right side a couple of tables very close to the crater. When Alita follows him a moment later, the light table frame is even closer despite the hole being stable and nobody moving. (01:05:25)

Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Continuity mistake: Grewishka makes his grand entrance inside the bar: as a poor schmuck asks "What's happened to him?", a guy in the background is sitting, but in the shot immediately after, he's standing and only after a moment he slowly sits down. (01:01:30)

Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Continuity mistake: As Alita punches Zapan and dispossesses him of his weapon, the large sword, in a rather unbelievable bit of CGI, flies off the side between two patrons at the table. Unless we assume a pinball-like bouncing trajectory, you can't explain how it ends up being back directly in front of Alita for her cool kick toss a moment after. (01:00:20)
18th Sep 2019
Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Continuity mistake: When Alita, enraged by Ido's refusal to connect her with the body, smashes the metal cart, in the shot from above various vials and a roll of bandage are tilted and tipped, but in the side view the vials do not appear and the roll is still perfectly vertical. (00:53:50)

Bird on a Wire (1990)
Continuity mistake: Marianne Graves gets out of the limo at the beginning of the movie; the smoke in the chimney goes from left to right between shots. (00:02:50)
18th Sep 2019
This Property Is Condemned (1966)
Continuity mistake: Alva watches a street performance by a few kids. A man is leaning against a street lamp: he has his right arm up at first, then his arms are crossed. (01:29:00)
18th Sep 2019
The African Queen (1951)
Continuity mistake: After crossing the first rapids, Humphrey Bogart's shirt appears to be mostly wet in the back. When he talks to Miss Sayer, it's the front of it soaking wet. (00:39:15)
18th Sep 2019
The Apartment (1960)
Continuity mistake: Baxter meets his neighbour for the first time as he is about to unlock the door. In the very first shot the doc lowers his arm, which is raised again in the close-up. (00:08:30)
18th Sep 2019
The African Queen (1951)
Continuity mistake: At the end of Rose's prayer next to the feverish Charlie in the muddy boat, in the overhead shot that follows, the dirt on Katherine Hepburn's face is different. (01:21:55)
18th Sep 2019
Security (2017)
Continuity mistake: Talking for the first time with Eddie, Ruby says "I can use a bow": Antonio Banderas' hand goes from his chin to being firmly against the counter right at the cut. (00:41:30)
18th Sep 2019
Security (2017)
Continuity mistake: Looking at the food court from the security monitor, Johnny appears to have his left leg bent, but in the previous close-up of his dead body, the leg was straight. (00:54:10)
18th Sep 2019
The African Queen (1951)
Continuity mistake: When Bogart responds "The Louisa, miss?!" to Rose's idea of torpedoing it, he is suddenly with his right fist in the air instead of clutching the other wrist. (00:25:05)
18th Sep 2019
This Property Is Condemned (1966)
Continuity mistake: When Mama does the fateful reveal, in the close-ups she keeps the coat open, hands on the lapel, while in the wider angle she has it closed, hands in pocket. (01:45:25)
18th Sep 2019
Security (2017)
Continuity mistake: When the sniper mercy-kills the driver on fire, he falls in a spot on the asphalt completely different from where Cung Le's men later retrieve the corpse from. (00:38:45 - 00:40:00)
