Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Bishop is shooting an energy blast at Gambit, he has three playing cards and five poker chips in front of him, while Wolverine also has three cards. When Wolverine is telling them both to sit down, Bishop now has four cards and eight chips, and Wolverine has four cards as well. Additionally, the deck has moved closer to the center of the table, and the arrangement of Wolverine's chips and the arrangement of Gambit's cards and chips have changed. (00:08:35)

Continuity mistake: When Blob is looking out the hotel window, the window panes have been opened at a 90° angle. When the shot changes, the opened panes are no longer visible. When the shot changes again, the windows are slid open, which would make it impossible for the panes to have been positioned at a 90° angle in the first place. (00:09:07)

Continuity mistake: When Mystique first enters the room where she plans to murder Senator Kelly, there are two bookshelves on the left, with the one closest to the camera being shorter than the one next to it. When Gambit and Mystique are getting ready to square off, the bookshelves are in the background, and they have swapped places. (00:15:52 - 00:16:15)

Factual error: The U.S. flag has 13 stripes. When Bishop is telling the X-Men how Gambit's betrayal will affect the future, the flag shown flying outside the Capitol building is missing two stripes. In the next shot showing the flag draped over the coffin, it has at least 17 stripes. (00:04:25)

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).

Days of Future Past: Part 1 - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Wolverine is asking Bishop if he knows him from somewhere, his pupils have been drawn as small black circles inside a blue circle that are the same color as his eyes. Within the same shot, his small pupils suddenly become larger by filling in the rest of the blue circle, and then just as quickly go back to being small. (00:04:27)
