Deliberate mistake: When Bastian comes running up the stairs by the harbour, you can see a black couple on the right. The woman is wearing a grey coat with a black vest and a white shirt. The man is wearing a black coat, black shoes and white socks.

The extras were used twice. (00:11:10)

Revealing mistake: When the dragon is flying by the castle, the castle is shooting a laser at it as it flies by. Then the dragon explodes just as it flies out of camera angle.

Other mistake: When Bastian and Atreyu gets to Xayide's castle, laser beams are are searching the ground for the intruders. Right before Bastian gets hit by the laser we see him running for Atreyu. Then we see light (obviously from a spotlight) being switched on and hitting the rock which Bastian jumps on. However we see the light from the spotlight move out of position as if the person controlling the spotlight thinks that Bastian will run further off the rock. When it cuts the light is back on Bastian and the rock. (00:39:00)
