Continuity mistake: When Jimmy and the rest of the kids are standing on the balcony, Jimmy asks Goddard to activate his binoscope so they can get a better view of the arena. Goddard then extends his eyes into tubes and raises them. However, in the next shot, his eyes are raised but not extended into tubes yet. They also take on a different shape than in the previous shot. (01:04:53)

Continuity mistake: During the show and tell scene, when Cindy finishes her presentation, she carries her model dinosaur skeleton back to her desk. However, the dinosaur skeleton is not seen at her desk, nor is it with her when the students leave after the dismissal bell.

Character mistake: When Jimmy explains to the kids of the town where the aliens took their parents, he mentions the origin of the aliens being somewhere in the Orion Star System, 3 million light years away. The Orion system is way closer than that. It is actually less than 1400 light years away from Earth. 3 million light years away would place them further than the Andromeda Galaxy.

Suggested correction: This shouldn't be a character mistake. A genius like Jimmy would know something like this. It's basic astronomy.

That's exactly why it's a character mistake. A character mistake is when a character does or says something that they shouldn't based on who/what they are suppose to be, or something a character wrongly states as fact when they should know better.
