Continuity mistake: In an attempt to save Kim and Jason from the evil spirit's bird, Playful Heart Monkey climbs the nearest tree, grabs hold of a green vine and swings right into the bird's path. In the next shot, watch as Playful Heart comes into view on the right side of the screen. Here, the vine has changed its color to purple all of a sudden. (00:45:30)

Continuity mistake: Once the Care Bears aboard the cloud clipper defeat the evil spirit's bird, it begins sailing towards shore. From back to front, the clipper's rudder is colored red, green and yellow. But after Secret Bear and Friend Bear descend from the cliff, the next shot of the clipper shows a reversed color sequence on the rudder. (00:47:10)

Continuity mistake: After Tenderheart Bear orders the other Care Bears and Cousins to seek out Nicholas in the carnival, Love-a-Lot and Gentle Heart sneak up to the trailer - from which he suddenly emerges in a fit of crazed laughter. In this shot, notice how the grounds are clean. But once Nicholas makes his way to the trash can hoping to find some ingredients for his spell, the ground is suddenly covered with litter. Only moments later when Love-a-Lot and Gentle Heart are hanging from the sign, look beneath the trailer: somehow the trash has managed to disappear. (00:52:30)

Continuity mistake: After Nicholas springs from the trailer to search for magic spell ingredients, he runs over to the nearest garbage can and starts picking. Behind him is a gazebo, and its staircase is located three openings from the right. But later on when Nicholas and Fetuccini are outside talking about friends, take another look at the same gazebo: the staircase has moved all by itself - now it is located five spaces from the right. (00:52:40 - 01:06:30)

Continuity mistake: When Nicholas is walking around to gather ingredients for his final spell, the first things he must locate are apple cores (three to be exact). On the side of Fetuccini's trailer he spots one core stuck to the painting, but this is where he says "Three apple cores. Just what I need!" Nicholas grabs only one core, never finding two additional ones. Meanwhile he notices a spider web hanging beneath the trailer. But as he reaches out to take it, the apple core instantly disappears from his right hand. (00:52:45)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where two boys are chasing Playful Heart Monkey and Friend Bear through the carnival grounds, the one wearing light brown shoes angrily kicks over a box of junk on his way by. But when he runs away in the next shot, he's wearing black shoes instead. (00:53:45)

Continuity mistake: When Playful Heart Monkey and Friend Bear are being pursued by a pair of kids through the dilapidated carnival, they take cover near a calliope. Upon first glance, the calliope's three blue levers are pointing down, up and down (in that sequence). Suddenly these levers change to red and get a different arrangement: down, down and up (with the lever nearest Playful Heart now conveniently positioned up for him to lean on and activate the music). (00:53:45)

Continuity mistake: When Kim and Jason are running with their heads turned, they circle around a tent and soon collide with Nicholas, causing him to trip over a hose and land several feet on the other side of it. Once Nicholas reaches out to capture the two children, we can see him sitting on opposite side of the hose. (00:54:20)

Continuity mistake: When Kim and Jason are being followed by Nicholas into the fun house, the first obstacle they must negotiate is a series of wooden planks, each having ropes for handles on either side. As Nicholas inches closer, Kim loses her balance and falls down on the last plank, but its left handle is missing in this shot - only to reappear moments later when they make their escape. (00:54:40)

ryguy_1983

Continuity mistake: When Kim and Jason enter the fun house, their first obstacle has large wooden planks held up with ropes. Once they step onto the sixth and final plank, Nicholas points his finger on the opposite side. From this vantage point, however, there are only four planks. (00:54:40)

Continuity mistake: When Kim and Jason are being pursued by Nicholas in the fun house, they begin running down a red staircase which changes into a slide. In the background is a painted face with seven teeth, one of which has a hole in it. As Nicholas slides down the staircase, the painting now has six teeth free of any holes. (00:55:00)

Continuity mistake: When Kim and Jason are watching Nicholas and Swift Heart from behind the clown cutouts, Kim places a hand over her mouth between shots. (00:56:20)

Continuity mistake: After Swift Heart Rabbit pounces onto Nicholas' face to distract him from taking another shot at Cozy Heart Penguin in the high dive pool, the background behind Nicholas changes instantly between shots. (00:56:20)

ryguy_1983

Continuity mistake: When Nicholas is about to strike Swift Heart Rabbit with the fire, his right shoe happens upon a wad of gum - the final ingredient for his magic spell. At this point he removes some of the gum and makes his way to the castle. Later on, when uttering the last three words of the incantation by the cauldron, Nicholas can be seen wearing two shoes and pulling a third one from his cape - which is soiled with gum; whereas he should only be wearing a left shoe. (00:56:40 - 00:59:15)
