Ice Age

Continuity mistake: When Sid is relaxing in the 'goo' and has it splattered on his face (no-one knows what it is), he wipes his face off with Manny's trunk, none disappearing. In the next shot, the 'goo' has completely disappeared from Sid and the baby.

Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, where Manny returned the baby, and received the talisman from the human, it was hung from Manny's tusk. As they meet Diego and walk away, the talisman isn't there anymore.

Other mistake: Even though it is snowing throughout much of the movie, none of the snow seems to stick to any of the characters' fur. Even during the fight scene when they are rolling around in it, they are never covered with white.

Question: The end of the movie shows Scrat and his acorn frozen in and eventually thawed from a block of ice 20,000 years later. How did he come back for the sequels?

Answer: The sequels take place before he was frozen.

That's not true. If the movies made later were prequels, how would the characters all already know each other?

Good Lord, people are overthinking this, hahaha. It's a silly animated movie series primarily aimed at children. It's OK if the Scrat character doesn't have super-concise continuity. It'd be like getting upset over the Looney Tunes not having strict continuity.

That one scene is set much later than the other films. The sequels aren't prequels.
