Superman II (1980)
Corrected entry: In the Richard Donner Cut, in the scene where Lois shoots Clark in the hotel, Clark's hair keeps changing style between shots.
Correction: This scene is made using footage from several auditions. It was never intended to be a finished movie-scene but was used to help fans see how Richard Donner wanted Superman II to be like. That's the whole point of the Donner cut: Replacing the missing bits with outtakes, auditions and whatever scrap material is available as long as people have an idea of how the movie would have looked like had Donner [instead of Richard Lester] finished it.

Correction: Richard Donner's is not a finished movie, but an experiment of how S2 would have looked like had he finished it. It is made with material from different sources: Richard Lester's film, auditions, previously unreleased scenes, newly filmed stuff... Thus, it is impossible for it to have any continuity whatsoever and was never intended to have any.
