Continuity mistake: When Logan is talking to Laura while it snows, the amount of snow on Logan's shoulder in the close-ups remains unchanged all the time. However, later, when the shot changes to a wide angle, most of the snow is gone. Too fast for it to melt.

Back to the Future mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Marty tells George how to flirt with Lorraine, they both enter the diner and Marty sits on the back of the counter but disappears between shots, only to reappear later on. Also, the extras around him change, although they're all dressed in similarly colored clothes. Check a man in a plaid jacket next to the blonde girl in pink, who disappears when Marty trips Biff. This continuity havoc was due to the combination of Eric Stoltz scenes and new Michael J. Fox reshoots.
