Corrected entry: Paul gets put to sleep before the shaving process yet his wife doesn't? No consistency since she somehow opted out of the shrinking procedure mid shave. Wouldn't she be asleep too?
Downsizing (2017)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Alexander Payne
Starring: Matt Damon, Kristen Wiig, Christoph Waltz, Hong Chau
Continuity mistake: Near the end a crowd is watching the sunset and Paul and Ngoc are hugging. The shot changes and they are just side by side, then suddenly hug. (01:53:30 - 01:54:40)
Drunk Guy at Bar: Can I get a normal-sized beer for a normal-sized guy?
Question: For no obvious reason - except for the fun of it - the downsizing procedure included a complete shave-down. In the Norwegian colony they have horses, sheep and dogs. Were the animals also shaved before being downsized?
Answer: They apparently shave them because the process only works on living tissue. So yes, they would have had to shave the animals.

Correction: Paul, and all the guys seen, gets his head and eyebrows shaved BEFORE getting the injection and being put under. Audrey changes her mind before they finish shaving her eyebrows, when she wouldn't have been put under yet.
