Revealing mistake: During the earthquake, Tintin leaps onto a lamp post and the ground starts to rise. The inside of his mouth is green as this happens. (00:05:50)
Continuity mistake: A tyre explodes and the remains go all around Tintin. But by the time the earthquake begins, nearly 80% of the burst tyre remains have vanished. (00:05:25)
Revealing mistake: After Tintin exits the observatory, there is a shot showing us the meteoroid in the sky. In this shot, stars are visible through it. (00:04:40)
Audio problem: When Tintin first sees the telescope, he says "What?" His mouth is out-of-sync when he says this. (00:02:50)
Continuity mistake: Tintin arrives at the observatory with a green shirt. But by the time he finds the telescope, he suddenly has a yellow shirt. Then as Tintin walks back to the apartment, he has the green shirt again. (00:02:25 - 00:02:55)
Continuity mistake: Tintin has a black and red striped tie as he and Snowy are walking. The tie becomes a black and brown striped tie by the time he returns to the apartment. (00:01:40)
Audio problem: When Tintin says "Maybe we should go back inside" his mouth doesn't move. (00:09:20)
Deliberate mistake: Captain Haddock finds out the SOS was a fake so he tells the engine room to increase speed. Just after they increase speed and Tintin says "The people financing the Peary", we can tell the boat isn't moving since the background is entirely still and not moving an inch. (00:14:45)
Tintin and the Picaros: Part 2 - S2-E9

King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: You'll notice that there are bars in the windows of the place King Ottokar's scepter is held. During the interior shots, the bars are about 10 cm X 8 cm. But in exterior shots, the bars are way bigger. (00:34:45 - 00:35:15)
Revealing mistake: When the scientists are eating their dinner and begin to get sea sick, one of them has a glass of wine. The wine slides along the table, yet the wine in the glass stays in a fixed position. (00:10:40)
Chosen answer: If Hector was seriously intent on removing King Ottokar's scepter from the glass cage holding it and launching it through the window with the camera, then Hector would have been forced to knock out the two guards so they would not have interfered with Hector's plan as soon as he removed the scepter from the glass. As for Hector, himself, was explained when Tintin was explaining how Hector stole the scepter. Tintin placed a twig inside the camera and it launched out of the camera. Hector would have placed the scepter inside of the camera, and would have been knocked unconscious due to the spring effect created when the scepter had been launched.
