After Major West falls over startled from the spiders behind him, you see him take aim to shoot the spider on his chest. In the next shot, you see the flare from the gun firing, but there's no sound. Two shots later he fires the gun, and it functions properly.

During the attempted destruction of Jupiter, there's a brief moment (right after Major West gets blown back by the electric blast) where you hear the robot's pulse blaster firing, but don't see a beam.

During the escape scene on the Proteus, Major West converts his pistol into a rifle with a series of add-ons. However, right before they boarded the Proteus (and Will was demonstrating how he had taken control of the robot), a rifle is visible in the armory that John gets a pistol from. Why wouldn't West take a rifle in the first place?

In the opening battle scene, Jeb's HUD displays a "System Overload" warning after he was shot by the Sedition raider. That warning was actually displaying since the moment he launched. It also disappears right after Don moves in to rescue him.

After everybody is cryogenically frozen, the pods are moved up behind windows. When the pods halt, the person in the right-most pod moves his/her hands. They should be frozen solid and unable to move.

When the old Will Robinson is describing his past, he says "A few spiders survived the destruction of the Proteus - they reached this planet", his lips are saying something else.Share this
Continuity
Right after the time bubble collapses (near the end of the movie, on the alien world), the Jupiter launches for the first time (without the professor). Since the bubble had collapsed, they (professor and aged Will) shouldn't have been able to see the escaping Jupiter: the doorway to the past had closed.Share this
Continuity
In the (repeated) end sequence when the Jupiter 2 is trying to take off from the planet, it should not have had to dodge the same fatal rock the second time, as there was a significant takeoff delay when John Robinson returned.Share this
