Game of Thrones (2011)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: The difference between the heights of Ser Jaime and Lady Brianne continually differs. Sometimes Brianne is taller than Jaime by several inches, and at other times they appear to be nearly the same height when standing side-by-side, even though they're always wearing the same clothes and boots.

Friends (1994)

The One With The Yeti - S5-E6

Continuity mistake: When Rachel and Monica knock on Danny's door and he opens it, there is a wall a few feet behind him. Later, when Rachel shows up at Danny's apartment to cancel their date, she enters into an open room and there is no longer a wall in front of the door. Danny's apartment is supposed to be one floor directly below Chandler and Joey's apartment. This was obviously the same set for their apartment that was used for Danny's and the wall was added for that shot to disguise it.

Donovan's Reef (1963)

Continuity mistake: At the end, when Amelia goes to Donovan's bar, she gives Gilhooley a wrapped present containing a model train set. Amelia then goes into another room to confront Donovan. When she comes out a few minutes later, Gilhooley has completely set up the train and is playing with it. He would not have had enough time to unpack it, much less have it up and running.

Vertigo (1958)

Continuity mistake: Near the end, when Scotty is driving Judy to the Mission, the view from inside the car of the road shows that Scotty is driving on the left-hand side when he should legally be on the right. It is not a one-way road, and it appears that the shot was flipped.

The Strain (2014)

The Assassin - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: After Coco Marchand's emergency surgery for a serious gunshot wound to the chest, she is seen recovering in bed, in a coma, on a respirator, possibly permanently brain-damaged, and in critical condition. A few hours later, when Eldridge Palmer is sitting by her bedside, Coco is suddenly without the respirator and there is no physical sign (bandages, tubes, stitches, bloodstains, etc.) whatsoever of her just having had extensive thoracic surgery for a near-fatal injury. There is only an IV line in her arm. This is before The Master arrives and revives her, and Palmer did not know if/when The Master would come, so he would not have had the respirator removed.

Tomorrowland (2015)

Continuity mistake: When Frank and Casey are escaping in the bathtub, the wall behind and floor below open up (the tub is suspended on a framework). When the shot cuts to a different view, the wall and floor are instantly back in their original closed positions as the tub blasts off through an opening in the roof.

Continuity mistake: Travers rides in a stretch limousine and Ralph, her driver, always puts her in the seat farthest back at the rear window. However, whenever she is seen inside the vehicle, she is sitting right behind Ralph, and easily reaches over and slides shut the window between the front seat and the back, even though there should be a wide space between where she is sitting and the driver's seat.

The Disappeared - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: During the flashback scene, when the young Setrakian is attempting to hide his crushed fingers, both hands are wrapped in cloth strips. Eichorn unwraps Setrakian's left hand to inspect it, then sends Setrakian to the group that is to be immediately executed. Moments later, the wrap is still on, but when Setrakian is forced to kneel, his right hand is suddenly bare. There was no time to remove the other wrapping nor could Setrakian have done it himself, his fingers were too severely damaged.

The Disappeared - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Eph and Nora become passionate while they are at Eph's former home, Eph is wearing a thick, outdoorsy-type jacket. Eph picks Nora up off the bed and carries her over to the bedroom wall, still wearing the jacket. The shot changes angle, and even though he never sets her down and she is tightly clinging to him with her arms and legs wrapped around his body, he instantaneously no longer has the jacket on and is wearing a sweater. He never had time to take the coat off and never set Nora down.

Continuity mistake: Goodweather and Setrakian find the body of Ansel's wife hanging in the stairwell of their home. When Goodweather removes the suicide note from her hand, a rosary is dangling loosely from her wrist. When the shot cuts to a viewpoint from behind her, the rosary is now entwined around her fingers. Then it changes back to hanging from her wrist again.

Who Shaves the Barber? - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Gus arrives to visit Molly in the hospital, he brings her a bouquet of flowers. He sets the flowers on the roll-away table stationed over the end of the bed, and the blooms are facing towards the window. When the scene cuts to a different angle as he is walking toward Molly, the bouquet is now completely turned around and the stems are pointing at the window, even though Gus did not touch them again.

Continuity mistake: At the end, as Alex comes out of her mother's hospital room, there are two large framed pictures on the hallway wall to her right, next to the door.

There is no other section of that wall that has two pictures next to each other.

The lawyer is perched atop the toilet and the remaining damaged wall behind him is tilted backwards.
