Friends (1994)

The One Where Rachel is Late - S8-E22

Continuity mistake: At the end, when Rachel and Ross leave for the hospital, Rachel grabs the keys. In the close-up, when Rachel asks, "Do you think we have time?" she holds the keys up in her left hand while Ross holds her empty right hand. It then cuts to a medium shot, and the keys are now in Rachel's right hand, the same hand Ross holds. (00:20:40)

The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Mrs. Hallet goes to retrieve the rubber seals from the cellar, she opens the trap door and the diagonal wood creates "Z" bracing; but in the next shot, as Hallet heads down the stairs, the diagonal wood cross brace is now attached to the door in the opposite direction, making a backwards "Z" bracing. None are flipped shots. (00:27:30)

Black Sunday (1977)

Black Sunday mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Near the end, while Kabakov is atop the blimp, he finally attaches the cable hook to the blimp. Just as he wraps the canvas strap around the hook, Kabakov's white shirt is neatly tucked into his pants, whereas in the previous and following shots, his white shirt is fluttering in the wind and we can see his abdomen and back.

Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero trivia picture

Trivia: While Mr. Freeze is at Shaugnessy's, when Shaka smacks Dick across the room, he ends up flat on his back, and in the close-up when Dick raises his head, the buttons on his vest switch sides momentarily. Then the buttons revert back (noted in trivia because it's better when clicked through slowly). (00:24:25)

Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero mistake picture

Continuity mistake: While Batman and Robin are at Arbagast's home, the phone rings so Robin gives Arbagast the handset. When they realise it's Belson on the line, in a closeup Robin clicks the machine base to record the conversation. The problem is that in this closeup the handset is still in its base, even though Arbagast is still holding it talking to Belson. (00:42:45)
