Land of Black Gold: Part 1 - S2-E10
Plot hole: Thomson and Thompson fall asleep whilst driving their jeep and are arrested because whilst they were asleep, they drove into and damaged several people's markets and as well as driving into the wall of a building. Although the decision to arrest them would seem normal due to the vandalism, it does not make sense why both of the detectives would have gotten arrested. Even if they both fell asleep at the wheel, only one of the detectives was actually responsible for the vandalism caused by this. (00:19:00)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 2 - S2-E9
Plot hole: When the helicopter flies over the jungle, Haddock inadvertently walks in view of the helicopter and the pilot of the helicopter notices him, assuming it to be a Picaro. Haddock then trips into the river, but despite being watched by the pilot of the helicopter the entire time, the helicopter pilot doesn't notice him falling into the river and instead assumes he just disappeared. (00:26:20)
King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Tintin says "If they see me with the scepter they'll know something's wrong", the scepter is visible in his right pocket. Two shots after this, the scepter cannot be seen in his pocket, but then it can be seen when the shot cuts again. (00:41:35)
King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: The piece of wood the detectives throw at the window has a straight Y shape. In shots of the wood on the ground, the Y is much more outstretched compared to other shots. (00:34:50)
King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Tintin is in the car with the singer, there is a man next to her. He's wearing a red jumper, but it disappears about 30 seconds later. (00:25:30 - 00:26:05)
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)
Continuity mistake: When Allan realises that Rastapopoulos wants Carreidas alive, there is a grenade pin in one of his fingers from the grenade that he just took out. Allan then throws the grenade away, and the pin for the grenade has suddenly vanished. (00:28:55)
Continuity mistake: When the group is reunited with Gino and Skut, Skut is smiling with his mouth open. Tintin walks over to them in the next shot, and Skut's mouth is suddenly closed. (00:33:30)
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. (00:34:00)
Continuity mistake: After arriving in Jakarta, Haddock is correcting Professor Calculus telling him it is not Sydney. The last time Haddock tells Calculus this, he's saying "It's not Sydney yet. It's Jakarta", and Haddock has pale skin and is also looking annoyed. Calculus then says "Yes, I know" and Haddock suddenly has more tanned skin and is smiling. (00:01:30)
Continuity mistake: When Haddock trips over Skut's bag, he lands face down on Skut's chest. When he trips and lands, both Haddock and Skut have pale light skin, but in the next shot, their skin is suddenly more tanned. (00:02:20)
Continuity mistake: When Mr. Carreidas and Mr. Spaulding walk over to Tintin, Haddock and Skut, in the shot where Skut says "Mr. Carreidas, these are my friends", the money that Haddock previously placed into Carreidas' hat is sticking out of it and a portion of the note is tucked into Carreidas' hat. In the next shot, only the top right corner is tucked into into Carreidas' hat. (00:03:15)
Continuity mistake: When Carreidas breaks out laughing for the first time, there is a moment where he lowers his head downwards. After this, the shot cuts to Mr. Spaulding saying "Are you all right sir?" and Carreidas head, visible in the corner of frame, is suddenly raised. (00:03:50)
Audio problem: When Carreidas is laughing and Mr. Spaulding asks if he's OK, Carreidas replies "I'm laughing", though his mouth is wide open as he says "laughing." (00:03:55)
Continuity mistake: When Carreidas receives a call from New York, he takes the phone from the flight attendant. The cord on the phone is black when the flight attendant is holding it on the dish, but red when Carreidas answers the call. (00:06:10)
Continuity mistake: On the plane, Carreidas is playing battleship with Haddock. Whilst he is saying "C4. D4. E4", he places his pen on the right hand side of the page, but when he crosses out E4 in the following shot, the pen is suddenly pointing near to the left hand side. (00:07:10)
Continuity mistake: After Snowy runs away, two gunmen grab ahold of Tintin, restraining him. As Tintin is yelling "Cowards! Murderers!", the gunman on the left is holding Tintin's upper arm with his right hand. The shot cuts to a closer angle of Tintin and there is no sign of the gunman's right hand. (00:11:00)
Revealing mistake: When Tintin discovers that Rastapopoulos is on the island, Tintin's arm has been animated differently than his face. Tintin's arm appears visibly more tanned than his face is. (00:11:05)
Revealing mistake: When Carreidas tells Rastapopoulos that he is mad and Rastapopoulos replies "No, just well informed", Rastapopoulos begins to walk around Carreidas. As he is walking around Carreidas, the cigar in Rastapopoulos' mouth clips through the string in his monocle. (00:11:50)
Revealing mistake: After Rastapopoulos tells Tintin he should have stayed on Flight 714, he says all he wants is Carreidas' money. When he finishes the line, the cigar in his mouth literally flickers from the left side of his mouth, to the right side of his mouth without him moving it. (00:11:45)
