Batman: The Brave and the Bold

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Plot hole: Van Gunther has the two rockets aimed at the Geneva Convention. They launch with Steve attached to one of them. Wonder Woman chases in her invisible jet and shoots down the other rocket. She then gets out and uses her crown like a boomerang to break the chains holding Steve to the second rocket and rescues him off it. She or her crown never touch the rocket, but it crashes into a mountain. She did nothing to it to disrupt its course towards the Geneva Arms Conference. There was nothing to make it crash or hit prematurely, and the sudden weight change of Steve falling off would not have been enough to cause it. (00:02:55)

Continuity mistake: Tattooed Man leaves the bank with two bags of money. He is shown standing on a concrete titled surface like a decorative sidewalk. He turns when he hears some police cars approaching. The shot cuts to a view of the police cars from between Tattooed Man's legs, and suddenly he is standing in the middle of the street on asphalt.

Continuity mistake: Batman throws some Baterangs at the bags of money Tattooed Man is holding, and rips them apart. Pieces of sack and money fall everywhere.

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: After Hal crashes the Batmobile/jet, Carrol and the reporter take off in a fast car towards the crash site. They are moving at racing speeds and there is no other vehicles around them as they zoom away from camera. But then they get to the crash site and suddenly there are two fire trucks driving beside her car and keeping up. They were not there a moment before, and a fire truck could not have caught up to a sports car going that speed. (00:07:25)

Continuity mistake: After the Major Disaster fight, the scene changes to Carrol flipping through a photo album.

Triumvirate of Terror! - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: Right at the beginning, the camera closes in on a baseball field. It shows several people standing and walking out in the field and just two standing up by home plate. The view changes to behind home plate and suddenly there are several superheroes sitting and stretching there, and the rest of the field is empty. Then after a shot of Jimmy Olson in the commentator stand, it shows a high view of the field again and the people have all changed again. (00:00:10)

Triumvirate of Terror! - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: When the kid in the stands gives Batman a bat that is not hit by magic, Lex says it doesn't matter. Between the far shot and the close up on his hand, his fingers slightly change position on the baseball. The style of his glove also changes. From having the base hanging off his forearm, to being form fitting in the close up. (00:03:15)

Rise of the Blue Beetle! - S1-E1

Trivia: Near the beginning, when Paco is flipping through the stations, you see a stand-up comedian and he says "it's called The Aristocrats." This is the punchline to one of the world's dirtiest jokes. The closed caption (on the HBO MAX version) says "to get to the other side."

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Question: It was said in another answer that the ring Star Sapphire has uses the power of love, which makes sense in this episode as her human from, Carrol, is in love with Hal Jordan. However, when Star Sapphire takes over and replaces Carrol's mind, she demonstrates nothing but hate and anger towards Hal Jordan/Green Lantern. So how can she use her powers with the opposite emotions?

Quantom X

Chosen answer: The Star Sapphires are agents of the Zamarons, the female species of the Guardians of the Universe, they are enemies of the Green Lanterns, which is why Carol has anger toward Hal. It should also be mentioned that the further a ring is from the center of the "The Emotional Spectrum", the more control the ring has over the user.
