The Usual Suspects
Kobayashi's Briefcase
When Kobayashi hands over a briefcase containing personal information on the main characters, the envelopes are listed: Fenster, McManus, Hockney, Keaton and Kint. This foreshadows each member's -except Verbal's- death.
Arturo Marquez's Coat
When we first meet Keyser Söze, he is wearing a black overcoat and a hat, now, he didn't bring this with him, he stole it from Arturo Marquez's room on the boat.
The Stack of Tires
Verbal explains how he hid behind a pile of ropes and other junk, while he saw Keyser kill Keaton. And we see him running to that spot, but when filming, Kevin Spacey stopped short of the ropes and hid behind a stack of tires, so no one was actually behind the ropes.
Convince Me
Dave Kujan tells Verbal to quote "convince me Verbal, tell me every last detail" Which he does, he convinces Kujan of a completely fake story.
