The Good Dinosaur (2015)

Continuity mistake: Spot finds four other humanlike creatures and goes to them. Arlo is standing several feet in front of them. He begins to push some dirt by using his nose. A close-up then shows him using his nose to draw a circle around the five others but he is standing much too far away to be able to do this.

Continuity mistake: A heavy rain is falling as Arlo and Spot are trapped in a rushing river. During close-ups of Arlo, the rain is falling at a sharp angle to the right. During close-ups of Spot, the rain is falling at a sharp angle to the left.

Continuity mistake: Arlo is surrounded by a large herd of gopher-like creatures. When they begin to crawl up his legs, he flings them off and begins to run. In the long shot which follows, the creatures are no longer close together but are scattered.

Trivia: John Ratzenberger is Earl, an antagonistic velociraptor who is a member of Bubba's gang who tries to eat Spot. John has voiced parts in all Pixar films.

Trivia: This is possibly the hardest A113 to see, but during the scene where Arlo is carrying corn on his back and going into the chicken coop, the fence has a certain shape that makes out A113.

Poppa: You are me, and more.

Poppa: Sometimes you got to get through your fear to see the beauty on the other side.

Butch: If you ain't scared, you ain't alive.

Question: When Arlo and Spot first see another human, Spot moves toward that human as if he was willing to join him to bond as a family. Arlo stops Spot from approaching the other human and places him on his back so to continue taking him home. Arlo decides he wants to share his family with Spot and keep him safe in his family house. By the end of the film, the same human Arlo and Spot saw in the distance earlier shows up along with his family. Spot joins the family. Why does Arlo decide to let Spot go this time?
