Continuity mistake: In the scene where Pacha and Kuzco are hiding in a little room in the restaurant, the door next to them is closed. In the next shot, it's open.

Suggested correction: The door does not open "in the next shot." It's actually three shots later. When it cuts back to Pacha and Kuzco (second screenshot), Kuzco tells Pacha, "In a minute. I'm still hungry." So, while off-screen, Kuzco opened the door to leave the room and make an order.

Continuity mistake: When Kuzco fires Yzma he tells the guard to show the village leader in, but when they show the door, there is no guard going to get the village leader, nor are there any guards by the doors.

Continuity mistake: Yzma and Kuzco both fall down the trap tunnel into the alligator pit when trying to enter the lab. When they are approaching the levers for the second time, both of them are somehow completely dry with little to no time to just instantly dry off.

Video

Continuity mistake: Whenever you see Pacha raise his arms or angles where you can see his undershirt under his green tunic, his undershirt is the same brown as his skirt/kilt and matches it. But in scenes where he takes his tunic off, his undershirt becomes white.

Continuity mistake: When Pacha and Kuzco fall down the canyon wall only to get stuck in the narrow gap they have to work their way back up to the rope, but when Pacha fell through the bridge just seconds before he had a clear view of the river below. There was no narrow canyon blocking the way.

Continuity mistake: When Kronk offers Kuzco the poison, he runs out of the room because his spinach puffs are burning. He takes the poison with him. When he returns he is carrying only the spinach puffs and the cups appear back on the table.

Suggested correction: When Kronk rushes to get his spinach puffs, he does not have the poison in his hands (easier to notice if you pause). So, the poison was on the table the whole time, behind the fruit bowl.

Yzma: That's it, Kronk! Break the door down!
Kronk: Break it down? Are you kidding me? This is hand-carved mahogany!

Trivia: When Kronk tells Yzma that he mixed the llama potion into the three cups, she tosses her drink into the cactus on her left. While Kuzco is transforming and the shot switches back to Yzma, you can see that the cactus is now llama-shaped.
