Continuity mistake: In the studio scene, the tow rope from the boat flies through the area and attaches to the antlers of Santa's reindeer to start dragging the sleigh. In the subsequent shots of the boat and sleigh, the tow rope is attached firmly to a bar between the reindeer.

Factual error: While it may be an artistic thing for the movie, fulgerite (lightning + sand) does not create anything near as ornate, long, crystal clear or tentacle like as portrayed in the movie. If anything it leaves tubular or clump like structures that are more reminiscent of kitty litter.

Audio problem: At the end of the movie when The Monster is shaking hands with Inspector Kemp, he pulls his prosthetic arm off. Inspector Kemp is heard saying, "Oh shit," however his mouth says just "Oh."

Continuity mistake: When Pee Wee is dressed as a nun on the sound stage, he looks impatiently at the bike - we see only a shadow from the bike on the left side. Then from the front shot, there is now the shadows of the actors right all behind the bike which weren't there in the prior shot.

Continuity mistake: The distance of Dr. Marshall and team when being chased by the Allosaur and T-Rex in the desert scene varies from being only a few feet away to instantly being hundreds of feet away.

Continuity mistake: When Jake goes into the water with the tow rope around his waist, the rope is going over the top and through the railing of the boat. When he gets pulled away with the girl, the rope is seen down in the water.

Continuity mistake: The cracks in the rear window of the lab truck when it's hanging over the side of the cliff seem to vary between the shots outside underneath vs shots inside as to where they are in the glass. There is a major one above (not underneath) Sarah's hand that's visible from inside and not from underneath.

Factual error: All propane tanks for the last 30 or so years have a safety valve which prevents them from simply releasing gas when the valve is turned on. Given these tanks looked brand new and Jake only turns them on, the gas would not have been released.

Factual error: The movie starts off saying its 2007 and Smart Cars were not sold in the US until 2008.

Other mistake: Towards the end when we see one of the $100 bill plates up close, the plate is not of any money ever put into production in the US. While I know most movies do not try and use actual money, there are things that don't match how real money is made: serial numbers are not on the plates, circle around Ben's head doesn't go to the border, "The United States of America" is missing above the "100" on the left, just to name a few.

Revealing mistake: When the 2nd BMW SUV is blown up on the dock, you can see the underside of the vehicle which reveals how they removed the drive shaft to help reduce the weight of it in order to flip it easier. There are also 2 jets of white gas seen coming from 2 pipes under the rear bumper which are what launched the vehicle end over end.

Continuity mistake: The cardboard sign behind the pink one under Mary's arm when they decide to drive to Texas for the storm changes from vertical to horizontal to vertical positions between camera shots.

Revealing mistake: When the dinosaurs are released from their cages and are running around the camp, a jeep is launched into the air and lands almost on top of the 2 hunters who leap from the tree. When the jeep falls forward, and down out of the tree the bottom of the tree moves and shakes in a way it shouldn't if it was truly made of wood.

Trivia: The Mercedes ML-320 used in the film were provided not only to show off the upcoming release of the M class vehicle but were also modified to be convertibles, something that has never been offered as an option since the vehicle's release.

Continuity mistake: When Fletcher deposes the boyfriend on the stand, the water stain on the left lapel of his suit grows significantly when he stands up compared to when he was sitting.

Other mistake: Tower Air never had direct flight service to Boston, only to NY from LA.

jerimiah

Other mistake: The camera shots that Steve takes during the storm are far too steady given how much we see him moving the camera, almost as if it was on a tripod. The problem is that Steve is holding the camera and we can see how much it moves during the ground collapse footage he takes when the kids are being rescued.

Continuity mistake: At the end when Fletcher is talking to his wife, there is a reflection of an outside window in the background showing a overcast but daylight sky in the window. However, when the camera pans away from the house we see that it's instantly night.

Factual error: When Kevin and Marcus pick up the Wilson sisters, we see them driving away on a back road by the airport. The issue is that there are no roads or surrounding areas like that in or around JFK airport where they are supposed to be.

jerimiah

Continuity mistake: When all "4" Wilson sisters are on the runway stage, the dragon circles them and then leaves the left side of stage with Marcus and Brittany but apparently does so despite the 3' drop off. You can see that they don't step down or anything as the tail of the dragon seems to step off as if there was stairs or a platform that's simply not there.
