Factual error: The villain drops the elevator full of waiters and catering staff; the display gives him no indication of whoever is in each elevator, but we can maybe assume it was a staff-only elevator and he knew it (it surely had no markings to indicate it). When Kate reaches the ground floor, everyone inside that elevator is lying unconscious in the corridor. I could understand if the survivors crawled there, but everyone is simply KO meters away from the elevator as if the impact happened there and not in the elevator shaft with a devastating buildup that had to be vertical and contained for obvious reasons.

Batwoman (2019)
Continuity mistake: When Kate and Sophie are in the parking lot and Kate gives her the knife for analysis, she is holding the plastic bag in different ways between shots (you can see the ziplock of the bag change position, and her hands shift in the distance). (00:12:20)

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Kate is on her lunch date with Reagan. Panning shot of the Chicago aka Gotham street. There's a family with mom, dad and two kids, with a girl in purple that climbs up leaning on the railing, and her brother follows shortly. A closer angle follows ("Why the hell did you move back here", Reagan asks) and the two kids have yet to step to the railing, and do it in reverse order. Even more remarkable; at the very end of their long conversation, in the shot when Fox's message pops up, they are STILL by the same family despite the fact that they have been walking and passing several other people all along.

Batwoman (2019)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Kate is sitting at Bruce's desk. In front of her as the camera closes in there's a newspaper, and it is slightly raised because it overlaps a packet of letters. A few seconds later Kate puts down the black card, and the newspaper, which she has not touched, is sitting perfectly horizontal on the desk. (00:02:10)

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: In bed with the barista at the beginning of the episode, Kate puts her hand on her back. She says "I heard she's doing Batman" and Ruby Rose's hand is on her bare skin; reverse angle and you have the hand on the sheet that suddenly covers her. Next shot and the hand is on her neck, with hair rearranged accordingly. (00:01:50)

Agatha Christie's Poirot (1989)
The Tragedy at Marsdon Manor - S3-E6
Continuity mistake: When Mr. "Clarrisa" Naughton produces the manuscript to the unsuspecting Poirot, the open side of the folder is to his own right, but it ends up on the concierge desk turned the opposite way. (00:05:15)

Mobile Suit Gundam (1979)
Continuity mistake: Char has just received the new Zakus. There is a scene when he instructs his 3 commandos for the atmospheric re-entry assault; their helmets have a large purple band only in the front view. (00:05:30)

Gemini Man (2019)
Continuity mistake: Junior's DNA-laden baseball hat changes position on the ground the first two times it is shown, slightly, and it is in a different spot where big slabs of asphalt meet as Danny retrieves it. (00:41:30)

Batman (1966)
Continuity mistake: During the climactic fight, Batman tosses the Joker utility belt, causing confetti and streamers to fall down all over the place in some shots, while there is no such paper rain in others. (00:21:40)

Mobile Suit Gundam (1979)
Continuity mistake: When Bright turns towards Captain Paolo Cassius to tell him about the success of their operation, his three-way front tuft of hair is curled one way, the opposite way in the close-up. (00:21:20)

Mobile Suit Gundam (1979)
Other mistake: Amuro's strategy relies on attacking the enemy having the sun behind himself, but when Ryu sees the Musai for the first time it is clear that the sun is behind Char's ship. (00:10:20)
30th Nov 2019
Batman (1966)
Revealing mistake: The newsreel shows several issues of the imaginary Gotham City Times. Nice job with the headlines and the page layout, but every single one of them is issue number 11. (00:14:00)

The Tragedy at Marsdon Manor - S3-E6

Gemini Man (2019)
Question: At the end of the movie, Will Smith (the older one) has a present for his son/brother/younger self; his official documents he apparently did not have. Passport, driving license and birth certificate; he congratulates him on his name choice. And he gives those to him as Junior is walking out of the college campus, which he obviously is already frequenting and where he made many friends. I know the US system allows undocumented students, but can you even enroll without the most basic ID? In particular since he is in Georgia, which reportedly is one of the strictest states about it.

The Scorpion with Two Tails (1982)
Revealing mistake: Throughout the movie, practically every victim ends up with a broken, twisted neck. The "special effect" used for those deaths is...the actors wear their jackets backwards. It is made even more evident by the plot twist at the end.
