The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the film, Scar says, "Oh, no Mufasa. Perhaps you shouldn't turn your back on me." Mufasa runs up to Scar, roaring, and says, "Is that a challenge?" Problem is, the roar is still going on while Mufasa is speaking.

Correction: They're in a cave. It's an echo.

Kara

But there is no echo for the rest of the words spoken.

The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: Apples do not grow in the African savanna. Also, Pride Rock has totally dried up. But when Pumbaa and Timon create the diversion, Pumbaa has an apple in his mouth.

Correction: Hula skirts and flower necklaces aren't available in Africa either, nor do meerkats dance the hula. It's just done for a gag.

I don't think warthogs sing and dance either.

The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: After the presentation of Simba, Mufasa and Zazu confront Scar in a cave. Right before Scar walks offscreen, watch how Zazu changes his position. When Zazu snaps at Scar by saying "Pity. Why not?", he's standing right between both of Mufasa's front paws. But from one frame to the next he's standing significantly further away from them. (00:06:30)

Correction: This is an illusion caused by the angles. The first shot is high above and as such he appears close to Mufasa. The second shot is lots lower and thus gives the impression of him being further away.

The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: After Scar warns Mufasa never to turn his back on him, he turns away and walks gingerly out of the cave. Scar is about to take a step with his right paw immediately before the shot changes. Once it does, his left paw takes the next step instead. (00:06:20)

Correction: We see Scar take a step with his right paw then the shot changes and he takes a step with his left. No mistake.

The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: In the very first scene in the movie, where Scar is playing with the mouse, the size of the mouse relative to Scar changes between shots. When he's rolling it over his 'fingers' we can see that its body is roughly the same size as a finger, but while it's pinned down as Scar talks to Zazu it seems much smaller than that. Finally, when the mouse escapes, it's much larger than it was in the beginning.

Correction: We don't see the mouse when it is pinned down, only its tail, so we can't say that it is smaller when pinned down. Throughout the rest of the shots it remains the same size.

The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: During the presentation of Simba, two elephants kneel down. In the overhead shots before and after, there is only a group of three and one apart from the others. (00:03:35)

Correction: In the overhead shots we don't see all the animals so it's safe to assume they could be somewhere else.

The Lion King (1994)

Corrected entry: In the scene where Timon is pulling out bugs from a log, one of the bugs is actually wearing a tiny Mickey hat.

Correction: I've just watched this scene and used step by step and zoom and no bug is wearing a Mickey hat.
