The Emperor's New Groove mistake picture

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 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.

Continuity mistake: When Kronk is disposing of the llama body, he runs down a very tall staircase. At the bottom, he runs into two peasants and leans up against the wall. The peasants pass him, walking toward the left side of the screen. Immediately after they disappear from the screen, the "camera" zooms out so you can see the entire palace. Now, the only place the peasants could have gone was up the staircase Kronk had just come down from, unless they wanted to fall off a cliff. If you look on the stairs, though, no one is there. The peasants couldn't have made it all the way up the extremely tall and steep staircase within seconds, so they just mysteriously disappeared.
