Geostorm picture

Continuity mistake: Near the end when Jake realises he has to go into space to get to the section he needs to access to put the code in, there is about 2 minutes and 50 seconds left on the Geostorm clock. The next shot he has a space suit on and proceeds into space. The next time the clock is shown it says around 1:40. There's no way he went and found that suit, put it on by himself, and got where he needed to be in under 1 minute.

Christmas Inheritance picture

Continuity mistake: During the drunken gymnastics young Miss Langford is doing to the delight of the paparazzi, she is wearing transparent pantyhose for the most part of the scene; you can see it during the cartwheels with the panty shot, and with the feet close-up. However her legs and feet are bare when the camera shows a stuntwoman leaping over the gifts and crashing into the tree (probably they didn't want to tear the stockings with that landing). (00:02:30 - 00:03:55)
