Ralph Breaks the Internet picture

Factual error: While bidding on eBay for the steering wheel, Vanelope tries to up the $350 bid by bidding $1,000. This scares off the real bidder, but Ralph and Vanelope don't understand how eBay works and bid against each other until they win with a $27,001 bid. That's not how eBay works. Vanelope's initial $1,000 bid wouldn't have set the high mark, but would simply have been her maximum bid in case the other bidder kept increasing his bid. The current high bid would have increased by the increment amount until it reached Vanelope's max bid. Now, it could be that the system recognized Ralph and Vanelope as separate bidders and that's why it let them keep upping the max bid. But, if the system had responded normally and simply increased Vanelope's bid to $355 with a max of $1,000, they might have realised what was going on and not started bidding randomly.

Alpha picture

Factual error: When the wolf gives birth to puppies towards the end of the film, it is not displayed in an accurate manner. The tribeswoman pulls the puppy out with no amniotic sack around it, and the pups are apparently completely dry or near dry with thick fur already on them. Puppies are born in these sacks that have to be eaten off by the mother or pulled off by outside help or the pups will suffocate. And they come out very wet with short matted fur. (01:26:30)

Suggested correction: Frankenstein wasn't saying she had the other half of his right arm (i.e. his left arm), just that the 2 arms came from 2 people who were cousins.
