X-Men

Longshot - S5-E5

Other mistake: After helping Longshot in the alley, Jubilee tells Logan "Are you blind? He's on our side!" to which Logan responds "We don't know that." This dialogue is repeated verbatim when the Professor meets Longshot. In addition to being obviously re-used vocal lines, the context of Jubilee asking "Are you blind?" doesn't make much sense the second time.

Love in Vain - S4-E14

Other mistake: The tail that Rogue grows appears out of thin air as if it were magic. Given that she's going through an organic transformation, the tail should have formed gradually out of her coccyx. (00:15:55)

Have Yourself a Morlock Little Christmas - S4-E12

Other mistake: Rogue states that this is Jubilee's first Christmas as an X-Man. However, Jubilee was already a member of the X-Men when Senator Kelly declared his candidacy for President in season 1, and the season 2 premiere episode showed him being sworn-in as President. Election Day is in November and the President is sworn-in in January, so Jubilee should have already had at least one Christmas as a member of the X-Men. (00:02:00)

Obsession - S3-E10

Other mistake: When Apocalypse is holding Rogue upside-down, her belt remains in place despite the fact that her belt is wider than her waist and abdomen (it is not as wide as her hips which is why it remains in place when she is upright). Her belt should have fallen down to underneath her breasts. (00:11:50)

Reunion: Part 1 - S2-E12

Other mistake: Ka-Zar refers to Xavier by name despite only having just met him and Xavier never telling him his name. He even asked Xavier who he was only moments before. (00:09:19 - 00:10:17)

Reunion: Part 2 - S2-E13

Other mistake: When Gambit is consoling Rogue just before she is taken to be tortured, he tells her that he loves her, and states that he has never said that to anyone before. But as we learned earlier in the season, Gambit was engaged in his youth to Bella Donna. Surely he told her he loved her at some point. Rogue is aware of this aspect of Gambit's past, so he would have nothing to gain by lying to her about it.

Dark Phoenix (1): Dazzled - S3-E11

Other mistake: When Wyngarde is facing the wall after White Queen breaks his mental contact with Jean, he is casting a shadow against the wall. However, as the White Queen approaches him, she has no shadow of her own. (00:15:17)

Dark Phoenix (1): Dazzled - S3-E11

Other mistake: The episode begins with an out-of-place one-second shot of a door opening on a space craft revealing a satellite hovering over Earth before quickly cutting to an establishing shot of Muir Island. Note: this may only apply to the version of the episode that appears on Disney+. (00:01:00)

Out of the Past (1) - S3-E1

Other mistake: When Wolverine first enters the subway, there are two tracks, and there is a train moving away from the camera on the track closest to the platform. When Gambit and Jubilee enter the same area moments later, there is now a train on the same set of tracks, but moving towards the camera. (00:07:38 - 00:08:07)

Reunion: Part 1 - S2-E12

Other mistake: When Magneto is asking how the Savage Land mutates were able to infiltrate his citadel, Amphibious tells him it's because Mr. Sinister long ago found his secret passage. The room they are in leads to a balcony, and has no door sealing off the balcony. In a world of superpowered beings, some of whom can fly, it wouldn't take much effort to get into a building that isn't closed off. Finding a secret passage from the ground level would be unnecessary. (00:15:00)

Days of Future Past: Part 1 - S1-E11

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)

Phaneron

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.
