Corrected entry: In the scenes where Marty enters the Lyon estates, if you look close you can see a stop sign, but if you watch the next two movies the stop sign has been removed. (00:11:50)

Revealing mistake: When Marty crosses the park in front of the court house and the camera pans around following Marty while showing the town, watch one of the buildings in the middle background. Part of the building is grey and has 2 windows and is supposed to have a slanted roof, but if you watch closely, it appears that building is in fact only a wall with nothing behind it. (00:34:40)

Suggested correction: Nothing really specifies that the building is only a wall. It definitely could be, but since there are no camera angles showing the back or sides of the building, it's not really fair to call this a mistake.

Continuity mistake: As Doc turns the plutonium jar on the back of the DeLorean, the little thing sticking out of the jar slides greatly down, without any motion of moving. (00:27:15)

Suggested correction: Wrong. It does show motion as it slides down, it just moves very quickly.
