Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero (1998)
Trivia: While Mr. Freeze is at Shaugnessy's, when Shaka smacks Dick across the room, he ends up flat on his back, and in the close-up when Dick raises his head, the buttons on his vest switch sides momentarily. Then the buttons revert back (noted in trivia because it's better when clicked through slowly). (00:24:25)

Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero (1998)
Continuity mistake: While Batman and Robin are at Arbagast's home, the phone rings so Robin gives Arbagast the handset. When they realise it's Belson on the line, in a closeup Robin clicks the machine base to record the conversation.

Back to the Future Part II (1989)
Continuity mistake: At the start, when Marty and Jennifer kiss, Marty turns toward his parents standing at the door. The screen door has three lower sections, and the house numbers are black. When Doc says, "Where we're going we don't need roads," it then cuts to Biff rushing out the door. Now, in this shot the changes include a screen door with four lower sections, stone wall differs, the house numbers are bright white, and a light fixture directly over the house numbers. (00:01:05 - 00:02:20)

Back to the Future Part II (1989)
Continuity mistake: When Doc tells Marty, "Don't do anything, don't interact with anyone, and try not to look at anything," note Doc's red shirt design. Then it cuts to a shot of Marty as he says, "I don't get it, I thought you said this had something to do with my kids." The next shot facing Doc, as he says, "Look what happens to your son," his red shirt's design has changed, though it's the same style shirt. The same thing occurs with Doc's yellow shirt with the train design, but it's more subtle. (00:09:25)
