Bird on a Wire (1990)

Other mistake: The list of the previous jobs and aliases of Rick displayed on the computer bears an inconsistency, as "Gordon Connover" from Atlantic City is an identity listed as being over in December 15 1979, but "Harding Bennett" begins on October 16th of the same year in Cleveland. (00:12:50)

Shaft in Africa (1973)

Continuity mistake: Shaft's new four legged companion is standing in the middle of the dirt road; in his close-ups we see him cast a shadow in the direction the car comes from, but in the long shots of the road the shadows traverse it side to side (and look at the shadow cast by the bush). (00:42:30)

Sammo

Other mistake: The first event that lets you befriend him contains the line "Mondo and I went to the dining hall", with a fade to black. One of the very few possible times to have Free time with Mondo can be triggered in the Dining Hall in chapter 2, so you 'go' where you already are.

The Knock Out Cop mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Talking with his new and still wet behind the ears boss, Rizzo advises him against trying to blitz the one-handed delinquent. He is making a gesture with his right hand, but at the cut here he is moving his left hand instead, with the arm that suddenly is on the table. (00:27:15)

Agatha Christie's Poirot mistake picture

The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: The race is presented through actual footage of the era, with a cameraman from Pathe shown, saying that Lowen's car is number 3. But the car shown in the stock footage is different from the one Lowen is driving, which does not even have the number in the same position. (00:33:10 - 00:33:45)

Other mistake: In Chapter 3, when Jiro is found in the pool, the narration says "Without a missing a bit, Hina started putting on the Robo Justice costume." Bit for "beat", obviously.

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc mistake picture

Other mistake: In Chapter 3, the kids find the computer with Alter Ego. The text says the computer screen glows "a pale green", but the artwork shows a unequivocally blue hue.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Lawton and his designated victim are looking at the cops fishing out of the corpse. From the aerial view we see Horton and Wright passing by in a gondola. Between two shots Richard Griffiths says "Absolutely...beautiful." There's a jump in continuity: Patsy Kensit's arm position changes, and the corpse that was just being pulled aboard now lies on the deck. (00:30:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Zeke is in the kitchen with his daughter. He is checking out Dick's driving license; in the close-up he is holding it with his left hand, but in the following shot, as she asks him "Where'd you find it?" he is holding it in his right hand. (00:10:15)

Continuity mistake: Victor Pivert is in full road rage mode as he is waiting at a road stop after skipping most of the line speeding through the emergency lane. As he bickers with his French compatriot, he hammers his horn initially with the right hand, then after a pause he starts hitting it with his left hand in a side view, which turns instantly into his right hand at the cut. (00:08:30)

Exit to Hell (2013)

Continuity mistake: After the fake movie intro, the two guys drive to a secluded place where their drop is supposed to happen. "Cheno", the one in the driver seat, has the right hand down his side and the left hand on the right side of the steering wheel in a pretty unique position. But in the reverse shot, it's his right hand on the wheel. (00:03:00)

Wake Up and Die (2011)

Wake Up and Die mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, the bloody handprint on the car changes entirely the second time it is shown. (02:02:45)

Merrily We Live (1938)

Continuity mistake: Mr. Kilbourne sits at the breakfast table and asks for his newspaper; during the scene the tea strainer to his right is facing upwards in the wider shots, and pointed with the opening down on the table in the close-ups. (00:04:30)

Super Robot Wars V

Other mistake: At the end of the 6th mission, the assault on Pluto, the capital ship led by Schultz escapes. Before making a run for it, it says "Full speed ahead! Destroy the Yamato!", which is probably a mistranslation, since there is no attempt on destroying the Yamato, their reason to move 'full speed ahead' is to escape and in fact any surviving force is retreating together with him.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After Wesley has intimidated the snot bully, he comes back home and finds the police. Sitting at the table, his mom holds his arm and says "Wesley, Mr. Chambers asked you a question." Mary Elizabeth Winstead has her right arm on the table, close to her body. Change of angle and she is holding the coffee mug instead. (00:45:10)

The legendary dawn! - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When Mitsuhashi and Ito meet on the first day of school, the clock in the classroom never advances from the 8:20 position despite the scene taking place in a span longer than one minute. (00:04:45 - 00:06:08)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Batman deals with one of the jewelry robbers pulling him out of the car. Robin uses the bat-rope to grab the one that is running away; when he's running, just before he's caught by the rope he passes by a manhole to his right. When Robin's gun drags him throughout street, the manhole is on his left. (00:10:15)

Batman: Hush (2019)

Batman: Hush mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Bruce and Selina sneak away from the party while Bruce's neglected childhood friend fetches the drink. The bottles on the shelves behind the counter change between shots when he goes "Seriously? Both of them?" It's like a portion of the leftmost shelf has been sliced off for the close-up. (00:05:00)

By the Sea (2015)

Continuity mistake: The first time we see Roland on his own at the bar, he's talking with the bartender, Michel. When he asks Roland in French where his wife is, Niels Arestrup's arm changes position instantaneously in an edit mid-sentence, and does the same a couple more times after. (00:11:30)
