Grandma's Boy

Factual error: In the scene where Alex is challenged by one of the testers to play Frog Bog, he shows it to Alex for the Xbox. Frog Bog was released for the Intellivision but wasn't available on the Xbox until 2010, after the release of this movie.

Plot hole: Contrary to the realism of developing a video game Alex should have had external files such as character models, stage maps and coding on his laptop which he could have used as evidence that JP stole his game, It would be impossible to keep all of the games files on one disc especially if he wanted to change something in the game because if you want to modify a DVD-RW you have to erase the disc data and reburn it.
