Shark Tale

Corrected entry: After Frankie's funeral there is a scene with a load of magazines piling upon each other on the screen advertising "The Shark Slayer" and one has a spelling mistake, 'Spectcular', this should be spelled as 'Spectacular'.

Correction: I've looked at the movie and I couldn't see a magazine that said Spectcular.

Corrected entry: During the first 'whalewash' scene a whale is at Angie's desk and the phone rings and she taps the hang-up button, which would of cancelled the incoming call, but she continues to talk to the fish calling. (00:06:40)

Correction: The action she performed is called a "hook-flash". It allows you to place one call on hold while answering an incoming call. People do this all the time with Call-Waiting.

Corrected entry: In the scene with the magazines piling upon the screen, the red one appears twice. (00:34:50)

Correction: Actually, several of them appear more than once but they are all different.

Corrected entry: Frankie dies with his tongue sticking out of his mouth, but a few seconds later his tongue is back in his mouth.

Correction: The tongue could've slipped back into his mouth, when his head falls down.

Corrected entry: In the scene when Oscar is clearing the muck out of the whales mouth you see a red and yellow coloured fish cleaning the teeth with the brush with one arm and in the next shot the fish uses two arms. (00:10:50)

Correction: The fish could have put another hand on the brush easily, it just doesn't show you.

Corrected entry: After Ernie and Bernie give Oscar a black eye, Angie places a sea slug over his eye. When he puts it on the bench armrest it slides down to the ground, but when Oscar gets up from the bench, the sea slug is gone. (00:14:40)

Correction: The slug crawls off the bench, as you can see it pauses during its descent, and wiggles its antennae. It is logical that it would have kept crawling off during the dialog on the bench.

Corrected entry: When Oscar is pretending to fight Lenny, he sends Lenny through a sign saying Jaws. About five minutes later, Oscar swims past the sign and it is intact. He swims past it again and there's a hole in it. It can't have been fixed and damaged again, can it?

Correction: Surely in one town there would be more than one ad for the same thing? It's probably a different sign.

Continuity mistake: When Oscar is at Sykes' desk he throws a load of documents at Oscar and when he piles the up in the first shot there are very few, but in the second shot there are three times as many. (00:13:10)

Question: In a post-credits scene, Lola tries to find Oscar in his penthouse, but Crazy Joe pops up instead. I can't figure out Lola's fate, but does she stay with Crazy Joe or does he scare her away?

Answer: That's for you to interpret, but most likely she went swimming away screaming in terror, being chased by a crazy fish. Think "My Crazy Ex-Boyfriend" premise.
