Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Xavier's watch magnetically clings to his hoverchair, the body of the watch is pointing at 1 o'clock. In the next shot, it is pointing at 12 o'clock, the minute hand has advanced roughly 4 minutes, and the watch has also moved down the chair and to the right a few inches (note the contour lines on the chair as the visual cue).

Trivia: In this episode, Storm tells Gambit that she knows him better than anyone. This is a reference to the comics, in which Storm was the first member of the X-Men that Gambit met, and whom vouched for his initiation onto the team. (00:07:08)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Stupidity: When Morph, disguised as Storm, tricks Jubilee into going to the Friends of Humanity's headquarters, he changes back to his regular form and says that's what she gets for thinking she could take his place before she even exits the room. It's amazing she didn't hear him and turn around to see his deception. (00:15:55)

Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Character mistake: After Gambit escapes from Wolverine and Bishop, Bishop says to Wolverine "No wonder you sent me back to change the future, because everything that happens is your fault." Wolverine didn't send Bishop back to change the future. He insisted on going back himself, but Bishop forced Wolverine out of the mission and inserted himself into the role because he felt Wolverine was too old to succeed. (00:10:03)

Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12

Factual error: The U.S. flag has 13 stripes. When Bishop is telling the X-Men how Gambit's betrayal will affect the future, the flag shown flying outside the Capitol building is missing two stripes. In the next shot showing the flag draped over the coffin, it has at least 17 stripes. (00:04:25)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Rogue takes the unconscious Gambit into the War Room, she sets him down on the center table and stands at the edge of it. When she is showing Storm that she absorbed his powers, she reaches over to grab a coffee mug. There were no coffee mugs on the table when Rogue set him down, and they would be out of reach if they were located on another table. (00:16:57)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Storm is talking to and walking towards Jubilee in the War Room, the TV that everyone was watching is suddenly off, and seems to have disappeared altogether, as no screen is visible. When the shot changes, the TV is back on, and the screen appears to be shorter and wider than first shown. When Xavier is leaving the room, the TV is off again, and the screen like before seems to have vanished. (00:09:16 - 00:10:02)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When the Friends of Humanity are attacking the mutant, the amount of spacing between the letters on the sign that says "Burgers" decreases when the shot changes. There is also a man painting a red "M" on the door below the sign with his left hand while holding a paint bucket in his right hand, and he only paints half the letter before the shot changes. When the shot does change, the "M" is fully formed, and the brush and bucket have swapped hands. (00:08:28)
