* Gordon's kids in the Nolan films. In ''[[Batman Begins]]'', a scene where Batman goes to talk to then Sergeant Gordon briefly shows Gordon's wife feeding two little kids in high chairs, one a toddler boy and the other a baby. Only about one or two years are supposed to have passed between ''[[Batman Begins]]'' and ''[[The Dark Knight]]'', but the kids now look to be a lot older -- their actors were seven and ten at the time of the film's release. This was apparently done so that Gordon could have a deeper relationship with the son but it causes a headache trying to figure out exactly what the timeline for the two films was.
** [[Word of God]] states that ''Dark Knight'' begins six months after the end of ''Batman Begins''.
*** To make it worse, in their brief appearance at the end of ''The Dark Knight Rises'' his daughter appears to be twelve-ish and the ''older'' of the siblings.
* Sean and Michael Brody of ''[[Jaws (film)|Jaws]]'' are little kids in the first film. In the second, Sean's still a kid while Michael is a teenager. The following two films got around the issue by making them both adults.
* ''[[Rocky (film)|Rocky]]'': Rocky Jr (Robert). was nine in ''Rocky IV'' when Rocky went to Russia to fight Drago. When he and Adrian return home at the beginning of ''Rocky V'', his son is now in early adolescence. How long were they in Russia?!
