16 revealing mistakes in season 4 - chronological order

Proteus: Part 2 - S4-E5

Revealing mistake: When Proteus is leaving his father's home while possessing the police officer, the green glow of his eyes doesn't stay in place as he is moving. You can see the green glows leave his face and float in midair with the eye slots on the face turning black. It appears that the animators couldn't keep the glowing eyes synchronized with the body movement. (00:07:30)

The Lotus and the Steel - S4-E13

Revealing mistake: The footage of Jubilee flying off in the mini-jet is recycled footage of her flying Colossus back to Russia from the season 4 episode "Red Dawn." You can even make out Colossus' silhouette in the window over the passenger seat in one shot, even though Jubilee is supposed to be by herself. (00:07:35)

Family Ties - S4-E17

Revealing mistake: After the New Men have captured Magneto, Wolverine, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, the establishing shot of the High Evolutionary's headquarters is a recycled shot of when Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver first arrived at his headquarters a few minutes earlier in the episode, played on a loop (note the lightning strikes and the High Evolutionary's pink energy field being repeated). (00:05:35 - 00:12:40)

Family Ties - S4-E17

Revealing mistake: When the High Evolutionary is asking Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver to place their arms in his DNA scanner, his mouth looks like it is jumping off his face as he is speaking. (00:06:35)

Family Ties - S4-E17

Revealing mistake: When Quicksilver is fidgeting inside his containment shell, the animators neglected to properly sync his body movement. You can see that his shoulders are not "connected" to his arms, as if his head and shoulders were separated from the rest of his body. (00:16:00)

Slave Island - S1-E7

Plot hole: After Storm's attempt to escape the Genoshan prison is thwarted, she ends up in the ocean right at the shoreline of the beach, where she is captured by a Sentinel. Aside from the fact that it makes no sense for a Sentinel to be hiding in the ocean in the event that a mutant tries to escape the prison, there is absolutely no way that a two-story tall robot could hide in the ocean right by the beach, as the water would be way too shallow. You can even see that the water level only goes up to the Sentinel's ankle area when it is standing upright in the ocean. (00:03:15)

Suggested correction: Perception. (1) The Sentinel isn't as close as it appears. If it were close, then she would have been caught in its waves as it emerges. Also, she would be looking only at its chest circle. It's several yards away. (2) She washes ashore. She fell from the sky. She couldn't have fallen from that great height into shallow water without hitting bottom. (3) It's also a two-story tall robot. Its weight would sink it into the sand. So it could have very well been down that deep.

Sentinel never sank into sand in other episodes.

Well, it's shown here.

Days of Future Past: Part 1 - S1-E11

More trivia for X-Men

Answer: It appears a number of factors led to its demise. It was originally intended to air for 65 episodes, but its popularity extended that. However, there were continual production quality problems, issues regarding whether the content was suitable enough for children, as well as financial considerations that finally led to it being ended.
