Continuity mistake: At the aquarium, the first shot shows all of the kids behind the glass, with a tall guy on the far right. When the angle changes, there's a big gap with no kids and the tall guy is gone.
Continuity mistake: When the family is with the kid, the father reading the paper and the wall explodes, Thomas jumps to the left and covers his head with both arms. From the opposite angle, only one arm is raised, the other one is extended and on top of the newspaper.
Continuity mistake: After Thomas, the baby and Atlanna have their picture taken, Thomas is reading a newspaper. The position of his left hand is inconsistent between shots.
Continuity mistake: At the bar, when the bullies ask Aquaman if he's the fish boy from TV, he faces to the right. Angle changes and he's now facing straight, only to repeat the movement.
Continuity mistake: When the bullies are nagging Arthur at the aquarium and the shark appears, the distance between the bullies is inconsistent between shots.
Continuity mistake: Right when the guards enter the home and the walls explode, Arthur swaps between having short curly hair to it being very long and straight.
Answer: No, Vulko said they had unlocked the secret of unlimited energy whilst the rest of the world still thought the earth was flat. Atlantis was already old by then, so it's definitely older than 2000 years. Atlan ruled over Atlantis for thousands of years. To say Atlantis is over 10000 years old is probably the most accurate.
