Full Metal Jacket (1987)

Continuity mistake: Gunnery Sergeant Hartman addresses the platoon seated on bleachers, and Hartman asks if they know the name Charles Whitman. In the long shot, when Pvt Cowboy raises his hand, there are two recruits seated to Cowboy's right, at the end of the bleacher.

Avatar: The Last Airbender (2005)

Continuity mistake: When Piandao tells Sokka that creativity, versatility, and intelligence define a great swordsman, he holds out Sokka's sheathed sword with its hilt at Piandao's right hand. However, in the next shot facing Sokka, the sword in its scabbard now lies on Piandao's hands the opposite way, with its hilt at Piandao's left hand. The position of Piandao's hands and thumbs changes as well, between shots. (00:17:25)
