No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Character mistake: When Cyclops demonstrates his power to Rusty to show him that he's also a mutant, he shoots an optic blast at a building and blows a gigantic hole in its facade. While the building had the appearance of being condemned, Cyclops had no way of knowing whether there were squatters inside. He could have seriously injured or killed several people for all he knew.

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: When Killgrave is walking up the porch steps to reclaim Rusty, Cyclops and Sarah are standing near the edge of the porch and Killgrave nearly makes it to the top before the shot changes. When the shot changes to Sarah telling him about Rusty's trouble adjusting, Killgrave is shown to be walking a considerable distance to get to Sarah despite the fact that the he was two or three steps away from her in the previous shot. Killgrave is also shown to be walking on level ground, which means either the porch has become a lot longer off-screen or that the animators forgot he was ascending the steps. (00:08:55)

Other mistake: When Killgrave is standing in front of the projector, the projector image is cast onto his person matched color for color, except for when his own image in his true purple-skinned form appears and the image cast onto him maintains a normal flesh color. (00:11:20)

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: The layout of the living room in Killgrave's house varies depending on the shot. Sometimes the half-circle couch is next to a staircase and sometimes it is not. The piano is also in a different spot on the floor each time it is shown. There are also chairs that appear and disappear throughout the scene. (00:14:55)

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Plot hole: When Killgrave's bodyguard dumps Cyclops face down in the pool and leaves him for dead, it is night time. When Sarah is shown to have successfully resuscitated Cyclops, it is broad daylight. If Cyclops had been floating face down in the pool for several hours then he would surely be dead. No amount of CPR would have brought him back. (00:15:45)

No Mutant Is an Island - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: When Sarah resuscitates Cyclops, they are by the edge of the swimming pool. When the shot changes to Cyclops blasting through the screen door, the pool is nowhere to be seen, nor is the puddle of water that was under Cyclops in the previous shot. (00:16:10)

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.
