Six Forgotten Warriors Chapter 5: The Price of Heroism - S5-E6

Continuity mistake: When Captain America is giving Spider-Man moral support after Mary Jane's accident on the roof, the red glove on his right hand briefly turns blue when he puts his hand on Spider-Man's shoulder.

The Return of Hydro-Man: Part 1 - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: When Mary Jane is hiding from Hydro-Man behind the barrels, one shot shows her bare arm under her yellow sweater, when the sleeves of her purple turtleneck that she wears under the sweater should be visible.

The Return of Hydro-Man: Part 1 - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: When Spider-Man is in the lab analyzing Mary Jane's jacket for clues, the inside of the door to to the lab has the door knob on the right side. When Debra Whitman is trying to get in the lab, the door knob on the outside of the door is on the right side as well, when it should be on the left side. The inside knob also disappears when the security guards break the door down.

Secret Wars, Chapter 1: Arrival - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the episode, Captain America stands up to pledge his support to Spider-Man. When the shot changes, Cap is suddenly sitting down. When the shot changes again, Cap is standing up.

Secret Wars, Chapter 3: Doom - S5-E11

Continuity mistake: After the Beyonder ends the war, he teleports everyone to a floating chess board in space, with Dr. Doom lying near the edge. When the shot changes, Doom has moved closer to the middle of the board. He is unconscious so he couldn't have moved.

Spider Wars, Chapter 1: I Really, Really Hate Clones - S5-E12

Continuity mistake: When the group of Spider-Men are observing the Green Goblin and the Kingpin's henchmen from inside the ventilation shaft, the outside edge of the shaft cover is first shown to be on the wall outside of the shaft, and then inside the shaft itself when the Armored Spider-Man pulls the cover off.

Spider Wars, Chapter 2: Farewell Spider-Man - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: When Spider-Carnage has Gwen Stacy hostage, she is bound by portions of his symbiote. When Spider-Man frees her, she is suddenly bound by webbing instead of the symbiote.

Spider Wars, Chapter 2: Farewell Spider-Man - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: When Scarlet Spider is saying that they need to destroy the bomb, you can see one of the arms and tattered costume of the Man-Spider behind him, even though the Beyonder had already teleported Man-Spider to another dimension. It appears to be a shot from Spider-Man and Scarlet Spider's fight with Man-Spider that wasn't used and ended up being repurposed, rather than taking the time to animate a new shot altogether.

Mistakes

Neogenic Nightmare Chapter 11: Tablet of Time - S2-E9

Factual error: When Peter is walking Alissa home, the traffic signal at the intersection they stop at goes from red to yellow to green. Not what US traffic signals do - they go straight from red to green.

Suggested correction: Not entirely true; although they are rare and may no longer exist now, I've seen traffic lights that followed the red, yellow, green pattern as recently as the mid-1990s.

Interesting. What state (s) did you see this in? I'm assuming going from red to yellow was to encourage cars to cautiously enter the intersection in case someone was running a red light?

Traffic lights in the UK do this - it's more to give you a second to get ready, in gear, etc., then as soon as the lights turn green you can go. Otherwise you get no warning of when the lights are about to change.

In Illinois; as I said, such traffic lights are rare, but they did exist at least as recently as the time this episode of the series aired, and they may still possibly exist in larger cities such as New York City.

This traffic light set-up (red to yellow to green) still exists today in the UK. From what I understand, it is to alert the driver that the light will be turning green imminently and to prepare themselves to put their car in gear, as manual cars are still pretty common in Europe. I'd wager this light cycle was phased out of North America due to the abundance of automatic cars today. Could have been different in 1994 though.

It should be noted that traffic lights that go from red to yellow before going green keep the red light illuminated so that both red and yellow are lit up. However, that's not what happens in the scene. I've never seen a traffic light operate the way it's shown. And Massachusetts still has traffic lights that go from red to yellow, however, when red and yellow are lit up together, this allows for pedestrian crossing.

Trivia

The Alien Costume: Part 1 - S1-E8

Trivia: When Peter Parker is testing the costume changing capabilities of the symbiote, he suggests "that guy from Aerosmith," and materializes a suit similar to what Joe Perry from Aerosmith wears. Joe Perry composed the theme song for this show. (00:14:20)

Questions

The Wedding - S5-E1

Question: If Felicia doesn't even like Peter as a friend and has never shown any interaction with Mary Jane then why was she at their wedding?

THE GAMER NEXT DOOR

Chosen answer: Felicia and Peter's friendship in this series was depicted as being on-again-off-again. At this point in the series they may have been on good terms. Plus Felicia is a wealthy socialite and Peter and Mary Jane's wedding was a big event due to Wilson Fisk paying for all of it.
