Despicable Me 2 mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Doctor Nefario is having a send off, he begins to blast off in his scooter very slowly. The shot after he says "This may take a while", the Minions begin to leave the area, yet in the next shot, the other Minions have vanished completely. There was nowhere near any time for them to have left the area that quickly. (00:21:10)

Dumbo (1941)

Continuity mistake: When the stork gives Dumbo to Dumbo's mother, he tells her to sign a paper. Dumbo's mum writes an "X" mark in the sign space. On the paper is a "Received one elephant" picture, a sign that says "Signed" at the bottom and loads of dots next to it. In the next shot, the paper is totally blank, excluding the "X" mark.

The Simpsons Game (2007)

The Simpsons Game mistake picture

Other mistake: Shadow of the Colossal Donut: Homer and Bart's main and only objective in this level is to open each of the three hatches inside Lard Lad and rip out the circuits inside him. To open the hatch, Bart will need to launch a slingshot at Lard Lad's hatches. After the hatch is opened, and the circuits have been ripped out, the hatch will always vanish completely.

Other mistake: Each time Cage is on the dropship along with all the other soldiers, the dropship is attacked and all the other soldiers release themselves from the plane onto the beach. When Cage lands on the beach, note the area he is standing in. Every time he drops onto the beach, he releases himself earlier or later than the previous time, but despite this, he always seems to land on the beach in the precise same spot each time. The dropship was attacked and began spinning out of control and was not in a fixed position, so there is no chance he would have landed in the same spot even if the dropship was over the same location.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: I don't think you're right, because the dropship doesn't change its rotation or acceleration, Cage just is connected longer or shorter to the ship, depending on the time when he chooses to let him self fall. It would be possible for him to land on almost the exact spot every time he cuts the rope to the ship.

I'm not sure this correction makes sense. If Cage was connected to the ship for a longer or shorter time, then he'd have traveled a longer or shorter distance. Then he'd land in a different place depending on how far he'd traveled. It would be almost impossible for him to land in the same spot each time.

Revealing mistake: Invasion of the Yokel Snatchers: On the Wii version, just as Homer and Bart are about to be sucked into the spaceship, a car on the ground can be sticking through part of a damaged wall. As Homer and Bart are sucked into the ship, the car then lifts out of the ground and fades through the wall without damaging it.

Revealing mistake: Invasion of the Yokel Snatchers: When Homer and Bart watch the mall be invaded, the citizens being sucked into the ship are just the same people repeated three times.

Bug: Day of the Dolphin: In the underground aquarium scene where you have to defeat Snorky, switch to Lisa and use her Hand Of Buddha power to move the jellyfish and place them on the hexagon-shaped grey platforms on the left corner on the screen. If you place one of the jellyfish on the platform and drop the other one, the jellyfish you dropped cannot be picked up a second time. It will just be stuck on the ground.

Continuity mistake: Day of the Dolphin: During the intro cutscene, Captain McAllister is untied from the ropes. Part of the rope he holds in his hand, then eventually he drops the rope. As soon as the level starts, the rope he dropped is no longer visible.

Plot hole: Level Four: Just after you finish defeating The Jumbo Shrimp, SpongeBob is back at Squidward's house telling him the story. Squidward tells SpongeBob that something is wrong with Gary and SpongeBob goes back over to the house to see what is wrong with him. SpongeBob finds out that Gary is hungry and attempts to go to Patrick to see what to get because they are out of pet food. This makes no sense because in level one earlier, SpongeBob opened up a pantry filled with pet food. There's no way they could have been out of food.

Plot hole: Level Five: After finishing the mission to defeat The Dirty Bubble atop the Sea Needle, the game completes, the Dirty Bubble is stopped and Bikini Bottom is saved from the little dirty bubbles infecting them. After saving the day, the game lets you go back to Bikini Bottom to finish off some other missions, but despite this the citizens are still infected by the little dirty bubbles and if you go back to the Sea Needle, the Dirty Bubble is still waiting there and reading to be battled again.

Continuity mistake: Enter The Cheatrix: During the final boss battle between Bart, Lisa and the Ape, you have to strike the ape with Lisa's hand lightning and battle Kung fu fighters entering through elevators. If you completely ignore these fighters and just go straight to taking the ape down, the ape will die after 3 lightning strikes and fall into the game waste stuff. The conclusion clip starts to play where Professor Frink gives the manual to Bart and Lisa, and yet the Kung Fu fighters don't seem to be there anymore, even if you didn't bother to take them down.

Casual Person

Plot hole: Enter The Cheatrix: The level shows Bart and Lisa chase the ape holding Professor Frink. Each part of the level consists of Bart and Lisa running through each place the ape went through. If that is so, while it has been shown to jump a few meters, it doesn't make sense how the ape was able to jump over two huge buckets of blood that was almost five times as more as a jump than it can usually handle. Even if the ape swam through the blood, there should still be blood on it or Professor Frink's clothes.

Continuity mistake: Enter The Cheatrix: After Bart and Lisa break into Frink's basement, they discover a Rift Portal. The first shot shows the "DO NOT USE" sign a foot above Bart and Lisa's height. But as Bart walks into the portal, the sign is suddenly located at the same height as Bart.

Continuity mistake: Enter The Cheatrix: When Bart and Lisa knock on Frink's door, they receive no answer and smash the window basement down and enter the basement. As the window smashes, part of the wooden window frame falls out of the frame and lands on the floor. Next shot, the glass from the broken window is still on the ground for a split second, but no wooden frame.
