The Little Mermaid (1989)
Corrected entry: In the scene when Ariel is struggling to walk, but then suddenly out of the blue she is able to run away from max.
Correction: It's plausible that she was a fast learner to walking. Ariel's motivation to learn to walk changed quickly as she feared the dog. "Fight or Flight" response resulted in her becoming a very quick study and she found the way to run away from the dog - note that she does not run far or very fast, in keeping with her newly acquired skill of flight.

The Little Mermaid (1989)
Corrected entry: When Ursula is Vanessa and turns into her sea form, Eric is in his wedding suit. Then he is in the life boat paddling out to save Ariel in his normal clothes. When someone you love is in dire need of help, you wouldn't stop and change clothes first.
Correction: The trousers have yellow stripes on their sides, which shows that he is still in his wedding suit. He just might have gotten rid of the jacket, which is quite understandable if someone intends to swim.

Corrected entry: In the beginning when the fish squirms out of the fisherman's hands and dives into the water, the fish exhales out his mouth. Fish inhale through their mouths and exhale through their gills.

The Little Mermaid (1989)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Ariel is watching the people on the ship Ariel says to Scuttle "Not that one, the one playing the snarfblat." (Snarfblat is a pipe) the person that Ariel would be talking about (Eric) doesn't have a snarfblat, and even if she was talking about Grimsby (who does have a pipe later on in the movie) who at that point in time he doesn't have one ether.
