The Red Sea Sharks: Part 1 - S3-E1

Revealing mistake: When the doorbell rings, Tintin and Haddock go to answer it and Calculus, on his roller blades, stands up and falls back down again. Snowy, under the couch, is peeking his head out and moves back into the couch when Calculus falls. When he does this, Snowy's ears pass through the couch. (00:05:50)

Revealing mistake: When Thomson and Thompson are questioning Tintin about General Alcazar, there is a shot where Thompson asks Tintin "That's all, is it?" and the shot pans over to Thomson asking "And what did he tell you?" When the shot is on Thomson, it is apparent that the animation of the chair that he is sitting on is incomplete, as a section of the chair has not been fully drawn out yet. (00:07:05)

Plot hole: When Tintin is listening in on Dawson's conversation, he realises an alarm clock had been planted in his coat pocket as a prank by Abdullah. Even if he didn't see the clock in his pocket beforehand, there is no reason why he wouldn't have felt the added weight the clock would have had on the coat. (00:09:35)

Other mistake: After the recap from the previous episode, Tintin, Haddock and Snowy are on a boat. Tintin is shown pulling on a rope to attach a sail. The amount of rope shown near the ground is never seen extending. It remains the same length even when Tintin is pulling on it. (00:25:05)

Continuity mistake: When Haddock breaks himself and Tintin out of the cabin, he and Tintin run out to the front deck and notice that the ship on fire.

Other mistake: Tintin and Haddock discover that part of the ship is on fire and discover a group of people hiding out under the deck. Haddock then lowers a ladder, down below the deck, so that the others can climb out, but even after every single person down below decks climbs out, the fire has not extended or grown further in any way, even after the time spent letting all the people out.

Continuity mistake: When the submarine fires on the cargo ship, Haddock yells "Full speed ahead" and pulls back the lever controlling the speed, but the lever snaps off, leaving it positioned at the SLOW sign, putting the ship in reverse. A few shots later, when Haddock puts a screwdriver against where the lever is place, it is suddenly positioned towards the HALF sign. (00:40:20)

Flight 714: Part 2 - S2-E13

Character mistake: When the group is discovered by Allan, they all take cover behind a rock whilst Allan fires at them. Tintin's position behind the rock would not protect him. Allan is standing directly in front of them and Tintin in taking cover beside a rock that is to the left of him. The area in front of Tintin would still be exposed to Allan's gunfire. (00:26:00)

Flight 714: Part 2 - S2-E13

Other mistake: In order for Rastapopoulos to break into the secret passageway, he places chunks of dynamite around the idol, then lights a fuse for each individual chunk of dynamite, all burning at the same time. The fuse for the dynamite near the middle of the idol is significantly shorter than the fuses for the others. Despite this, it still takes the exact same amount of time for all three to burn down.
