The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Trask turns the laser onto the propane gas tank, it is on Master Mold's left. When Master Mold reaches down to try and stop the laser before it causes the tank to explode, it is now on his right. (00:16:04)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Cyclops is running through the mine to search for Wolverine and Gambit, he uses his visor to track their location. When the shot changes to a first person view through Cyclops' visor, the background is merely moving up and down. If he was running as the previous shot had shown, the objects in the background from his point of view would become larger as he got closer to them. (00:16:50)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Rogue is calling out to Gambit just before Jean and Senator Kelly exit the mine shaft, the X logo on her chest is a yellow X on a red background, when it should be a black X on a red background. (00:17:57)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Factual error: When a parachuting Xavier is about to land, you can see his legs are bent at the knee to brace for landing. Since Xavier is a paraplegic, he shouldn't be able to do this. (00:19:14)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of Senator Kelly's campaign speech, his campaign button is predominantly white with some blue at the top and bottom. When the shot changes, the majority of the button is now blue, with only a small portion in the center being white. (00:19:20)

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Plot hole: Magneto states that he went to Washington, DC to witness Senator Kelly's assassination. But Magneto had no way of knowing about the assassination plot. Mystique was the one who was attempting to assassinate Kelly, and Apocalypse was the one who carried out the order. At this point in the show, Magneto had not worked with either Mystique or Apocalypse, and it's highly doubtful that Mystique would leak the plot, since it was supposed to be covert.

The Final Decision - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Magneto reveals to Senator Kelly that he went to Washington, DC to personally witness his assassination. The flashback to the previous episode reveals that Magneto was watching Mystique (masquerading as Gambit) attempt to assassinate Kelly and the real Gambit's intervention through a window. Magneto can be seen as plain as day watching in the window in the flashback, yet in the actual episode, Magneto is never there. The design of the window is also different, as well as the color of the curtains. The room itself also appears to be smaller in the flashback.

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Beast is saying "What's in a name," he and Cyclops are standing on the right side of the red carpet, and Gambit is standing right behind Beast. A couple of shots later, Beast and Cyclops are now standing on the left side of the red carpet, and Gambit is now standing several feet away by the door. (00:05:32)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 1 - S2-E1

Plot hole: The establishing shot of the White House indicates that President Kelly's press conference is taking place there. A member of the Friends of Humanity disguised as a mutant busts into the room and starts terrorizing the reporters and destroying everything. The Secret Service would have either detained or shot this man long before he could have even gotten close to the press conference. Graydon Creed also shoves a security guard that tries to intervene but somehow isn't arrested for it. (00:05:50 - 00:06:35)

Red Dawn - S2-E4

Question: Does anyone know what the Russian writing says on the wall behind Omega Red when he is standing at the podium and talking about the return of the Soviet Union? (00:15:08)

Phaneron

Chosen answer: It says MPO "First Exemplary Printing House" which is a real printing company in Russia founded by Ivan Dmitrievich Sytin in 1889. There seems to be something about "named after..." as well.
