Corrected entry: Near the beginning of the movie, Pea-Green opens the freezer with a popsicle stick. Freezers seal pretty tightly, so the stick would break. Even if it didn't break, it would be too hard for a borrower to open.

Correction: If you slam or push a freezer door shut then, yes, the vacuum created holds it shut pretty well. If the door was closed without excessive force then it would open quite easily.

Phixius

Corrected entry: When the exterminator (Mark Williams) accidently sprays the yellow goo onto Mr. Potter's face, it takes off his mustache but it didn't take off his eyebrows.

Correction: When the exterminator was pulling it off, he pulled it closer to the moustache than the eyebrows.

Factual error: When Arriety and Spiller are rescuing Peagreen from the bottle, Arriety introduces Peagreen to Spiller. But later on when her parents show up and she introduces Spiller to them, she also introduces Peagreen to Spiller again.

Suggested correction: She forgot that she had introduced him already. People forget things all the time.
