Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Professor X, Cyclops and Jean Grey enter the room where Senator Kelly was abducted, Cyclops goes over to inspect the hole in the wall and Professor X states that his watch has stopped working. Cyclops, still on the other side of the room, asks why that's important. When Professor X drops his watch and it clings to his hover-chair to demonstrate that it's been magnetized, Cyclops is suddenly behind Professor X. (00:20:30)

Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Xavier's watch magnetically clings to his hoverchair, the body of the watch is pointing at 1 o'clock. In the next shot, it is pointing at 12 o'clock, the minute hand has advanced roughly 4 minutes, and the watch has also moved down the chair and to the right a few inches (note the contour lines on the chair as the visual cue). (00:20:39)

Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: The final scene from the previous episode is reprised in the beginning of this episode, yet some of the dialogue is different or omitted altogether. In Part 1, when Storm says "We all have dark sides to our souls," Wolverine responds by telling her to speak for herself and states he's more suspicious of Bishop than anybody. Also, when Rogue walks in and asks who Bishop is, before anyone can tell her, Gambit announces his arrival. When Bishop accuses Gambit of being the traitor, Gambit tells him he thinks there's been a mistake. In this episode, Wolverine never states that he is suspicious of Bishop, Professor X tells Rogue who Bishop is before Gambit walks in, and when Bishop accuses Gambit of being the traitor, he fires his gun at him before Gambit can even say anything.

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Gambit is asking Xavier why the X-Men must all die to save Senator Kelly, the top of Wolverine's mask is incorrectly colored blue. A few shots later, this portion of the mask is correctly colored yellow, but then the portion of his mask by his right cheek is also yellow, when it should be black. (00:09:48)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: The exploding playing card that Gambit uses to destroy a few Sentinels and draw the rest above ground is cleverly shown to be the ace of spades (also known as the death card in some folklore), but the card he is shown charging up before the Sentinels see it is the 2 of diamonds. (00:12:10)

Red Dawn - S2-E4

Question: Does anyone know what the Russian writing says on the wall behind Omega Red when he is standing at the podium and talking about the return of the Soviet Union? (00:15:08)

Chosen answer: It says MPO "First Exemplary Printing House" which is a real printing company in Russia founded by Ivan Dmitrievich Sytin in 1889. There seems to be something about "named after..." as well.
