Scream (2015)
Continuity mistake: When Eli tries to cheer up Emma, the house they arrive at has a sign outside that says "Wren Lake Estates Sales Office." A few minutes later, there's an exterior shot of the house and the sign suddenly says "Wren Lake Estates Model Home." Once the house catches fire, the sign says "Sales Office" again.

Burke and Hare (2010)
Factual error: When Ginny visits Burke before his execution, they spent so much time together that we see two candles burn almost all the way down to the bottom. Candles take several hours to burn, and in reality, nobody would be able to visit a condemned man for that amount of time. Even if it's for only 2 hours or so.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
The Best Burger in New York - S4-E2
Trivia: When the gang are in a taxi on their way to one of the burger joints with a green door and a red neon sign, look closely at Cobie Smulders' eyes whilst Barney is talking to Lily about Goliath National Bank - she is almost falling asleep when her character is not meant to be sleepy. Watch as her eyes widen, desperately trying to stay awake.

Beverly Hills Cop (1984)
Continuity mistake: Right before Axel shoots Zack at the mansion, there is a large vase behind Axel. When he shoots Zack however, the vase disappears. There are bullet holes in the wall where the vase was, implying Zack fired his gun at Axel. But Zack never fires his gun, so the vase simply vanishes from the scene. (01:32:00)
Continuity mistake: When April changes into a school girl's outfit to distract Dr. Stockman's assistant, she grabs a miniskirt and ties it around the skirt that she's already wearing. But we never see her take this particular skirt off. It just magically disappears. She is also wearing pantyhose which suddenly changes to over the knee stockings.
Continuity mistake: When we first see the Technodrome building itself and Donnie is analysing it on his computer, we see a number on the screen slowly counting upwards. In one shot the number is in the 331,000 range. A few shots later, it passes by this number again.

Inside Man (2006)
Revealing mistake: During the final conversation between Detective Frazier and Arthur Case, Frazier holds up his hand with the ring on his middle finger. It is pretty obvious that the hand was inserted into the scene in post production; the hand doesn't move in a natural way and simply looks out of place.
Suggested correction: Really? I don't see anything unnatural in the hand's movement at all. Doesn't look at all obvious to me that it was inserted in post-production. After all, Frazier refers to "this ring." They will want it in shot so I'm sure they made sure Washington held it in shot.
Yes, really. Look again. Look at how it moves down and vanishes out of the frame. No human hand moves like that! They didn't have Washington hold it up for the shot and it was inserted later as a pickup shot. See this IMDB goof entry for more details: "During the final conversation between Detective Frazier and Arthur Case..." "a picture of a hand with a ring on the middle finger was inserted into the scene - first moving up into the shot, and then moving down off screen."

Agents of SHIELD (2013)
Continuity mistake: When the Watchdogs destroy the government facility near the start of the episode, 6 shots of Nitramene are fired onto the building's exterior before it implodes. But moments later when Coulson calls Mack, he (Coulson) is watching the news report of the event, and the 6 shots of Nitramene are nowhere to be seen.
