Bloodlines - S5-E6

Plot hole: When the Friends of Humanity push Graydon Creed out of the helicopter, his parachute somehow opens a couple seconds later while he is free-falling despite the fact that his hands were tied up and therefore could not have pulled the cord himself. (00:19:20)

Longshot - S5-E5

Plot hole: Wolverine has a superhuman sense of hearing, yet he is unable to hear all the commotion going on with Jubilee, Longshot and the other aliens in the parking lot while he is inside the convenience store. (00:01:30 - 00:03:10)

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Plot hole: When Killgrave's bodyguard dumps Cyclops face down in the pool and leaves him for dead, it is night time. When Sarah is shown to have successfully resuscitated Cyclops, it is broad daylight. If Cyclops had been floating face down in the pool for several hours then he would surely be dead. No amount of CPR would have brought him back. (00:15:45)

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.

Graduation Day - S5-E14

Continuity mistake: When the camera pans around the team after Lilandra saves Xavier, Storm's communicators are colored white whereas they are normally red, and Rogue's gloves are missing below the wrist. (00:18:50)

Phaneron

Graduation Day - S5-E14

Continuity mistake: When Jean Grey is stating how Magneto's powers intensified her own, the left side of her costume around her abdomen is colored yellow whereas it is usually blue (the right side remains blue in this shot). (00:13:30)

Phaneron

Graduation Day - S5-E14

Continuity mistake: When Trish Tilby is giving the news report, she is first shown to be in front of a gray news van. When the shot changes and for the rest of the report, she is standing in front of a blue screen. (00:05:30 - 00:06:45)

Phaneron

Hidden Agenda - S5-E13

Audio problem: When Mr. Guthrie is saying "I worked with you inside the mines and shopped in your stores," his mouth is completely out of sync with the dialogue, sometimes not even moving at all. (00:14:45)

Phaneron

Hidden Agenda - S5-E13

Other mistake: When Rogue rendezvous with Beast, Xavier and Gambit, she pinches Gambit's cheek with her bare fingers. This should have caused her to drain his powers and render him unconscious. (00:14:10)

Phaneron

Hidden Agenda - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: When Gambit is restrained in the chair, his gloves alternate between being his usual gloves that are fingerless at the thumb, index and pinkie fingers, to not being fingerless, to him not wearing any gloves at all depending on the shot. (00:10:05)

Phaneron

Hidden Agenda - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: When Gambit jumps out of the ventilation shaft, there is no one around him. Then he is suddenly surrounded by guards who could not have converged on him so quickly unless they appeared out of thin air. (00:10:00)

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.
