Stargate SG-1 (1997)
Character mistake: At the end, Vala and Mitchell establish a wormhole and let Teal'c and Jackson know. Almost a minute passes before Teal'c and Jackson get back to the gate and Jackson yells "run" because they need to get through the gate right away. Obviously they're detained, but after being let go, Mitchell says they're sending the iris code now. This is something that should have been done sooner, especially after hearing gunfire, so they could be ready to go through when Teal'c and Jackson arrived.
Suggested correction: OR... after hearing the gunfire maybe it was smarter to wait until they verified that it was Teal'c and Jackson who prevailed. Otherwise, they risked leaving the gate open to a hostile force.
Perhaps they waited, but they still would have sent it when they saw them, which the didn't. And they've never waited like that before.

Trivia: Troy Gentile plays young JB (Jack Black). In his previous role, "Nacho Libre" Gentile played young Nacho, who was played by Jack Black. Incidentally, "gentile" means one who is not Jewish, and Jack Black was born and raised Jewish.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (2008)
Other mistake: When the guy that has the Terminator's head confronts the Terminator who's wearing a helmet and Chet's jacket, there's a close up of the jacket, and we see the shirt buttoned up and you see the bottom part of the helmet. When he flips up the visor and the camera pans down, the shirt is now opened up to reveal the metal body with Chet's head just stuck on top of it. But we should have already seen the metal body in the first close up shot.

Doom Patrol (2019)
Factual error: When Jane is putting up the lost poster, the number to call is 1-800-saw-him. However, this is only a 6-digit phone number when it needs to be 7-digits (not including the 1-800 part).

The Terminator (1984)
Trivia: In the end credits it says "Acknowledgment to the works of Harlan Ellison." Ellison was a prolific writer, including writing the "Star Trek" episode "The City on the Edge of Tomorrow." Ellison claimed "The Terminator" was based on his "The Outer Limits" episode "Solider." The matter was settled for an undisclosed amount with the acknowledgment to be included in the credits, which was done on the home releases. Cameron has denied Ellison's claim and disagreed with adding the acknowledgment.
