Continuity mistake: Robert Redford has no cigarette before jumping off the train passing by Dodson, suddenly has a lit cigarette in mouth, then not, then one in hand that he tosses away. What he does not toss is his suitcase before getting off the train. But his luggage is there for him anyway right after. (00:06:20)

This Property Is Condemned (1966)
Continuity mistake: Robert Redford is behind the train motorman. He is holding on to the top of the cart, but for the first close-up showing his face in the movie, evidently they didn't want his jacket to bundle up as his arms were lifted: he is in a completely different position. But he's again clinging to the top of the cart in the following shot. (00:06:10)

Child's Play (2019)
Continuity mistake: Having dinner at the mom of Detective Mike's, look at Mike's hand when she gets up saying "That's all." His hand is suddenly raised, eating, while they were both down and empty in the previous shot. Similarly a moment later Andy gives a nervous look to the gift, fork vertical - but he's eating in the following shot. (00:51:20)

Child's Play (2019)
Continuity mistake: After giftwrapping the melon head, Andy and friends stumble upon his mom. When she asks "What is that?" her necklace pendant is stuck into the right part of the blouse. When she asks "Present? For who?" the necklace is placed differently. (00:43:25)

Late Night (2019)
Continuity mistake: Molly was not informed and arrives at the first writer meeting 2 hours late, carrying cupcakes. She puts the 3 boxes on the table. The stack is at one point suddenly perfectly aligned (when Katherine asks her "What do you think?" but the pieces are again not perfectly lined up just after. (00:18:55)

Late Night (2019)
Continuity mistake: The group of writers is prepping for the job interview with the young brother of one of them. Hayes as he listens to the instructions is keeping his hands in front of the chest in the close-ups, which is not reflected in the side views, when his arms are always down his sides. (00:06:45)

Late Night (2019)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, in the scene when Katherine ends up firing the writer who asked for a raise, check out her assistant: he is reflected in the glass behind Gabe Eichler, and his posture as he gets uneasy when Katherine starts blasting the writer is often different between the front views and the reflection. For instance when she says "You are fired, obviously" Bradley is looking up, arms folded, but touches his face in the reflection. (00:04:40)

Lucifer (2015)
Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: In the interrogation room with Nick, more than once (for instance when Lucifer says at the beginning "I don't want to know about the case") when Jeremy Davies lifts his open hands and holds them up, they are held up at a different height between one shot and the reverse. (00:18:50)

Lucifer (2015)
Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Chloe is being debriefed by her ex about the crime scene. There's a close-up of the photographer who will be the key of the case, being physically pushed away by a policeman. The scene goes on with him in the background in many shots, all on his own, snapping away as if nothing happened. (00:08:55)

Lucifer (2015)
Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: The fake preacher runs away leaving all the money behind: in the overhead shot Lucifer says "I'm here till, well, the end of times actually" turning around past a guy (big hair, big sideburns, black and blue shirt) that he already passed in the shot before as he thanked the crowd. (00:03:20)
20th Sep 2019
Lucifer (2015)
Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: At the beginning, the preacher is walking around with the donation mug. The first kid to put a few bucks in does it across two shots and has a very notable yellow hand-held device when he puts the money in that was not there in the first shot. (00:02:00)

Lucifer (2015)
Continuity mistake: During the scene in the school corridor with Lucifer sitting down and talking to Chloe's daughter, the same extras keep doing erratic back-and-forth for no reason (for instance the girl with a white jacket and pink shoulder bag) or just plain wrong (the kid with the horizontal striped maroon sweater who walks twice past Lucifer early in the convo). (00:24:50 - 00:25:50)

Lucifer (2015)
Continuity mistake: Lucifer walks down the stairs into 2 Vile's mansion; first person he comes across is carrying a glass, wearing a black T-shirt and grey undershirt sticking out. The guy is walking towards Lucifer as if he were going to use the stairs Lucifer is descending, but just vanishes in the following shot, only to reappear at the next cut, taking the stairs as it seemed bound to happen all along. (00:16:15)

Lucifer (2015)
Continuity mistake: When Lucifer talks to the killer in agony in the car wreck, blood streaks change on his face between shots (in particular, he has blood coming from the corner of his moith in the last shot, from the side, but he had none a moment before, in close-ups). (00:09:40)
20th Sep 2019
Lucifer (2015)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, a cop pulls Lucifer over. The car stops with the front wheels on white road markings. When Lucifer is shown taking off again, the street is just not the same, there's no white horizontal lines, and a manhole appears under the car. (00:02:45)

The Boy Next Door (2015)
Continuity mistake: After the disastrous double date, Claire is home drowning her loneliness in alcohol. As she gets in front of the couch, she puts the hair tie on the side table, undoing the ponytail. When the shot changes though, and does it in perfect continuity of position with her just laid feet up on the couch, the hair is back styled in the same tail and definitely tied. (00:19:15)
20th Sep 2019
The Boy Next Door (2015)
Continuity mistake: When Kevin tries to ask the hardware store girl out, Noah's feet are in frame and he assumes the waiting stance, turning them around and crossing them. Yet in the following shot he is just only then turning around and leaning. (00:42:35)
20th Sep 2019
The Boy Next Door (2015)
Continuity mistake: Claire's husband and son are back from their trip. As Kevin starts talking about the 'big mountain dude', Claire has her hand under her ear in the front view, while in the side view she has it in a different position by her cheek, and only after a moment she places it as shown before, under the earlobe. Similarly, a few seconds later when she says "Oh, thank you" commenting on the shovel cooking story, she has her hand suddenly under her chin while she previously had both sideways rubbing her own neck. (00:27:25)

The Boy Next Door (2015)
Continuity mistake: When Vicky, to try and break the embarassment with the rude 'practical skills' guy, says "I think it stopped raining", she turns away but still has her elbow on the table. Vice versa, in the following shot she is turning back starting from a position with her arm off the table. (00:18:25)
20th Sep 2019
The Boy Next Door (2015)
Continuity mistake: Claire's wimpy son is all embarrassed by the hot schoolmate at the cash register. During the conversation, there's obvious poor continuity in the back-and-forth between him and Noah with the items to purchase: Kevin is holding the clutch waist-high or to his chest, as shown by Noah's right arm in frame or not. (00:07:20)
