Audio problem: When the decapitated Sentinel body crashes to the ground, the sound of it crashing against the concrete is too soft for its size. It sounds like something slamming against a metal appliance when it should sound more like a car crashing into a wall, only louder.(00:13:50)
Continuity mistake: After Gambit unlocks his collar, he lets the collar fall to the ground. In the next shot, the collar is visible on the ground a couple feet in front of him. In the shot after that when he retrieves the gun, the collar is no longer visible on the ground.(00:12:50)
Continuity mistake: The keyhole on Gambit's inhibitor collar alternates between being mostly the same yellow color as the rest of the collar, and being gray such as when he unlocks it.
Continuity mistake: When Gambit is being escorted into the Sentinel factory, he has two guards behind him on his right and left. When the shot changes, the guards have disappeared.(00:11:00)
Revealing mistake: When Gyrich walks forward to shake the Leader's hand, the ground beneath them is noticeably shaking, possibly indicating a composite shot.(00:10:35)
Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode, the inhibitor collars worn by the captured mutants alternate between having a leveled edge like a hardware nut, to having a rounded edge like a finger ring.
Continuity mistake: When the Sentinel puts Jubilee in the detention box, it is still dark outside. A couple of shots later and there is a considerable amount of daylight in the sky.(00:09:30)
Continuity mistake: Before the mutants ambush the guards, they are walking in a single-file line, with Sunfire in front, followed by Jubilee, Mystique, Caliban, an unnamed female mutant, and Aurora. A couple of shots later, either Aurora or her similarly-dressed twin brother Northstar is suddenly at the front of the line.(00:08:55)
Factual error: When Professor X is calling Moira McTaggart in Scotland, the phone number he uses is shown to have only dialed the exit code of 011, followed by a fictional seven-digit number with a 555 prefix. Since he is calling from the United States, he would have to dial the country code (44) and area code for the right part of Scotland. Plus UK numbers at that time had at least 9 numbers.(00:08:20)
Other mistake: When Cyclops, Rogue and Jean Grey exit the War Room to depart for Genosha, at the top of the door frame there is a black spec moving around, possibly indicating that there was some debris or a clump of dust on the animation cells or the camera lens itself during filming.(00:08:15)
Continuity mistake: When Cyclops hangs up the phone, he is standing next to a table on which the phone is located. When the shot changes, either the table has disappeared altogether or Cyclops has suddenly moved several feet away from it.(00:06:10)
Continuity mistake: When Cyclops hangs up the phone, the base of the phone shows three rows of five buttons. When the shot changes, there are now only four buttons per row.(00:06:10)
Continuity mistake: Gambit and Jubilee are shown to be grouping together what appears to be several pieces of malleable rebar. When the shot changes to Gambit reassuring Jubilee that Storm is alive, he is shown to be working with a single piece of rebar. When the shot changes again, they are back to working with a bunch of rebar.(00:05:00)
Plot hole: After Storm's attempt to escape the Genoshan prison is thwarted, she ends up in the ocean right at the shoreline of the beach, where she is captured by a Sentinel. Aside from the fact that it makes no sense for a Sentinel to be hiding in the ocean in the event that a mutant tries to escape the prison, there is absolutely no way that a two-story tall robot could hide in the ocean right by the beach, as the water would be way too shallow. You can even see that the water level only goes up to the Sentinel's ankle area when it is standing upright in the ocean.(00:03:15)
Suggested correction:Perception. (1) The Sentinel isn't as close as it appears. If it were close, then she would have been caught in its waves as it emerges. Also, she would be looking only at its chest circle. It's several yards away. (2) She washes ashore. She fell from the sky. She couldn't have fallen from that great height into shallow water without hitting bottom. (3) It's also a two-story tall robot. Its weight would sink it into the sand. So it could have very well been down that deep.
Character mistake: When the civilians are fleeing the coffee shop, there are two spelling errors on the coffee shop's marquee. Firstly, the name of the coffee shop is Rip Van Winkle, but on the marquee, Winkle is spelled as "Winkile." To the right of that, Coffee House is spelled as "Coffe House."(00:16:55)
Continuity mistake: When the coffee shop owner is strong-arming Xavier, he is first shown gripping Xavier by the collar of his sweater. A couple of shots later, the coffee shop owner's hand is gripping the collar from inside the sweater.(00:15:30)
Wolverine: So what are we up against with this Iceman?
Professor X: We're not against him, Wolverine. Wolverine: So then we're with him?!
Professor X: Of course not! He's destroying federal property! Wolverine: Boy, I'm glad we cleared that up.
