Continuity mistake: In the scene where Wayne makes his speech at Szalynski Labs, he pretends to stand in a strange shape. When he does so, his speech cards are facing down. In the very next shot, the cards are facing up.

Continuity mistake: When the two couples are riding in the toy car going down the track, the car alternates from (not) having a roof between shots.

Continuity mistake: Near the beginning, just after the people are shrunk, the pattern on the floor keeps changing. In the closeups its really big compared to the people, and from farther away its smaller compared to the people.

Visible crew/equipment: When the Szalinski brothers and their wives are shrunk, they run into a cockroach the size of a sofa. They hide behind some structure with a nut on it. A boom mic is visible in the top-right corner for a second or so.

Trivia: To date, this is the only film ever directed by Dean Cundey. Cundey, an award-winning cinematographer who has worked on classic films such as "Halloween," "Back to the Future" and "Jurassic Park," was personally approved by star Rick Moranis for the job. However, Cundey learned that he wasn't particularly fond of the directing process, and chose to go back to being a cinematographer after the film's completion.

Question: Near the beginning, what does Wayne mean when he says "Nothing like the smell of 2-part apoxy resin"?

Answer: Epoxy resin is sometimes sold in two seperate tubes. You have to mix the contents of both for the epoxy to harden into plastic. It also shows how weird he is, as epoxy tends to smell pretty foul.
