Mr. Mouse Takes a Trip mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Mickey hides Pluto in his suitcase, the entire handle to the suitcase breaks off and Mickey tosses away the handle. This handle reappears unbroken when Mickey takes Pluto out of the suitcase and then quickly hides him again, though it's broken again in following shots. Then at the end, when Pete tosses both suitcases off the train Mickey's suitcase has the broken handle, but when it lands on Mickey and Pluto the handle reappears unscathed once again.

Continuity mistake: After Mickey hides Pluto in his suitcase in Burbank, Mickey picks up his cane and runs to the train, then when Mickey actually jumps onto the train caboose he's only carrying his suitcase, he does not have his cane, nor does he have Pluto's suitcase (which had been filled with bones) with him. The cane reappears on the train later, and at the end Pluto's suitcase mysteriously reappears when Pete throws it at the duo in Pomona.

The Greatest Showman mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: While Barnum and Phillip sing "The Other Side" Phillip uses two stools to get up and down from the bar top. When he steps down from the bar top, in this wideshot (also the first shot of them in the pub and other shots) the two upright stools Phillip used are secured with additional support, note the floor area underneath the stools' legs have the same pattern as the rest of the floor, though we can see the outline where the pattern's lines don't match up. Additionally, we also see three actors' marks (in the shape of an "L") on the floor in front of the bar, which will be where Barnum and Phillip will stand when they agree on the ten percent.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix mistake picture

Continuity mistake: After the battle in the Hall of Prophecy, when Harry and the others land in the Death Chamber, Ginny is a good bit of distance away from Harry's feet in the side shot as they're all lying on the floor, but two shots later as they're starting to get up Ginny's head is now right beside Harry's knee.

The Little Mermaid mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At the start, when King Triton makes his appearance he's holding dolphin reins, and at first it's shown as two separate straps in Triton's hand as he tells Sebastian he's looking forward to the performance, but when Sebastian replies that it will be the finest concert he's ever conducted, Triton lets go of the rein and it's a single continuous strap.

Friends (1994)

The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Ross shows Chandler and Joey the can of "Carol's favorite beer" it's unopened as Ross makes a crack about how he "should have known," but in the next shot we see Ross lifting the can and drinking from it, even though he never actually pulled open the stay-tab between the two shots (viewed in widescreen). [In the extended version of the episode you see Ross open the can before taking a drink. In the standard version, the mistake is valid]. (00:09:55)

The Little Mermaid trivia picture

Trivia: When Scuttle discovers that Vanessa is actually Ursula, he sees Vanessa's true image reflected in the mirror, but the image we see in the mirror is not reversed, note Ursula's mole and her shell necklace are not backwards. This may be construed as part of Ursula's magic, or it's simply an animation error, which is common (I believe it's the latter). (01:06:40)

Continuity mistake: While Louis is preparing the stuffed crab and then while he tries to kill Sebastian, the gold buckles on the chef's shoes appear, disappear, and reappear randomly.

The Little Mermaid mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Carlotta goes to check on Louis she shouts his name, and in the first shot of Louis note the buttons on his shirt are on the proper side, but in the chef's closeup as he apologizes to Carlotta, his buttons are now on the opposite side. (00:54:35)

Rememory (2017)

Continuity mistake: The rememory recording headpiece has a single button on only one side, which lights up when activated. While Sam is with Todd he listens to Todd's history, and when Sam activates the device he holds the headpiece out for Todd to "prove it." In the first shot Sam's holding the side with the lit-up button, but in the next shot the headpiece is turned the opposite way, with the lit-up button facing Todd as Sam's holding the other side of the headpiece.

Rememory (2017)

Rememory mistake picture

Continuity mistake: At the end, when Sam places the last few mini figurines on the hex riser display, note the house's chimney stack faces to the right, but when Sam picks up the display the chimney faces to the left. There are some other difference between these shots, such as the miniature tree under Dash's car goes from full green foliage to sparse, then back to full. (01:45:40)
