The Phalanx Covenant: Part 2 - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: When Xavier is first shown in his containment bubble, he is shown with his hands resting at the center of his hover-chair with his left hand on top of the right. When the shot changes, his hands are suddenly separated and at the sides of his chair. (00:14:00)

The Phalanx Covenant: Part 2 - S5-E2

Other mistake: When Forge says "Now we need offensive power," he opens up a containment bubble with no one inside it. The bubbles are transparent, so he would have known whether or not someone was inside it and it would make no sense for him to open up an empty bubble since he was in need of reinforcements.

The Phalanx Covenant: Part 2 - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: When Xavier and the others are approaching Cyclops, Storm, Rogue and Wolverine, Magneto is shown wearing his helmet and Gambit is shown wearing his trenchcoat. When it changes to an overhead shot of the group, Magneto is no longer wearing his helmet and Gambit is no longer wearing his trenchcoat and his normally-black headgear is colored blue. (00:19:20)

The Phalanx Covenant: Part 2 - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: When the group is standing together in a circle at the end, Xavier is sort of in the center of the circle and Rogue and Storm are several feet to his right. When the shot changes, Rogue and Storm are suddenly right next to Xavier. (00:19:25)

A Deal with the Devil - S5-E3

Continuity mistake: When the X-mansion is shown at the end of the episode, the landscaping around it is different than what was shown early in the episode. When the mansion was first shown, there is a shrub in the shape of a circle on the lawn across from the mansion, but at the end of the episode, the circle-shaped shrub has turned into some bushes. The bushes and trees around the mansion are also different looking and at the far side of the mansion the shrubs have grown taller. Additionally, when Wolverine is walking away from the mansion at the end, a hedge-wall has appeared next to the mansion. It's actually common for the landscaping outside the mansion to vary drastically from episode to episode. This is the first time I noticed it changing within the same episode. (00:04:25 - 00:19:25)

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)

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.
