Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales mistake picture

Revealing mistake: When the bank vault is hitched up to the team of horses note the position of Marty's white horse, and the buildings around the bank, because two of the following wideshots are flipped. First, after the ropes get taught when it starts pulling the vault, the shot of the team is flipped; and second, after Jack gets on his knees just as the bank moves around him, once again the shot of the team is flipped.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Carina escapes from her jail cell, just after we hear Mayor Dix dedicate the Royal Bank of St. Martin, in the closeup we see the locked shackle around Carina's left wrist and the hanging links with the other shackle dangling. Then when Mr. Swift sees Carina handling his telescope, in this closeup we see the shackle links are hanging the opposite way, revealing that the locked shackle around her left wrist had been the dangling shackle from the earlier shot.

The Nutcracker (1995)

Continuity mistake: After Fritz breaks Nutcracker's teeth, Marie removes the ribbon bow from her waist and wraps the ribbon around Nutcracker's mouth. When Marie walks to the cabinet we see the back of her dress minus the bow as it should be, but when Marie walks toward the clock the bow returns to the back of her dress. It then vanishes and reappears in following shots.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban mistake picture

Other mistake: When Arthur takes Harry aside at the Leaky Cauldron, the moment before Arthur says, "There are some within the Ministry who would strongly discourage me from divulging what I'm about to reveal..." we can see the digital number "300" flash on the stone pillar to the right of the wanted poster. (This occurs only in the fullscreen version, as opposed to a widescreen version where the number "301" flashes underneath the poster, which is noted in another mistake). (00:17:30)
