Ron: Follow the spiders? Follow the spiders?! Why couldn't it be "follow the butterflies"?
In the three shots facing Lockhart as he continues to say, "It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind... Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here," there is a WIRE attached at the bottom left of the cloth that lies on the pixie's cage. However in the close-up of the cage, as Lockhart removes the cloth, the bottom of the cloth is clearly visible and the wire is gone. See more...
In Asian releases of the film, the Chinese subtitles for 'Draco Malfoy' has a double meaning. It is pronounced as 'zhuai ge', which also means 'arrogant guy'. See more...

Before Tom Riddle came to Hogwarts the toilet was not haunted, but a normal toilet for girls. Wasn't it strange that Slytherin (the man himself) had to go to the girl's bathroom when he wanted to visit his secret chamber? [Yes, which makes it even less likely for people to think the entrance is there. The chamber is meant to be hidden so no one apart from the heir can find it so the girls' toilets would be a good place.]
In the scene where Harry is on the floor with a broken arm after the Quidditch match, you can plainly hear Harry say something quite rude. It is just when Professor Lockhart comes over, and you may need to turn up to volume. [Actually Harry says 'thank you'. He says it to Hermione because she blasted the bluger before it could hit Harry again.]
In the forest scene, the flame lamp is always glowing with a different brightness. First it's very intense, and then so dim you can hardly see it. [This is simply what flames are like. When they move, they can get darker and lighter or the flame can start to go out and then pick up force again.]
When Harry and Ron are ejected from the flying car, it also ejects their trunks, the cages with the animals, and a few small parcels. When Harry and Ron enter the castle and leave their belongings with the other collected luggage, they leave fewer items than the car ejected. [It's possible they put the smaller packages in their trunks so they wouldn't drop them.]
Harry's Nimbus 2000 is different than the last in the previous movie. [The only thing different about the Nimbus 2000 is the metal stand that Harry can put his feet on. It's possible that he bought that in Diagon Alley.]
In the final scene, when Harry hugs Hagrid, the shot shows the back of Harry, and some hanging pans with flames can be seen on the wall. Look carefully at the one second from the left. It seems to burn backwards, as if it's animation has been reversed. [How can a flame burn backwards?]
Deleted Scene UK DVD: When Ron, Harry and Hermione are discussing the diary in the hospital wing, Hermione looks at a random page in the book and says Tom's name, Ron then takes it and points at the page while trying to remember where he read the name. Trouble is, the name is not printed in the pages, but on the back cover. [It's not a random page. She is looking inside the front cover of the diary and that does have Riddle's name printed on it. It's also printed on the outside of the back cover.]
When Harry Potter and Tom Riddle are talking inside the Chamber of Secrets, notice the bridge of Harry's nose. There is a small piece of duct tape under the bridge of the glasses to hold them in place. [No there isn't.That's just the bridge of his glasses.]
In the polyjuice potion scene (movie scene index 20), Hermione sits down and and we see nothing is on the bench. Then when Ron asks her "how", she picks up two muffins from the bench seat. [She doesn't, she takes them from her cloak pocket.]
In the scene where Ron, Harry, and Hermione are at the carnival, Hagrid is on Harry's right. A few seconds later, he is gone. [The comment is vague, and there is no carnival in CoS.]
During the filming of The Chamber of Secrets, Emma Watson broke her wrist. You can see the cast on Emma's left arm in the scene when she, Harry, and Ron finally drink the potion. She is able to move her arm and fingers, but you can tell her mobility is stiff and limited, and the sleeve of her gown is pulled down over her hand. Earlier in the film, when she is first mixing the potion, she is not wearing the cast. [I'm sorry, but that is incorrect. If you watch, she moves BOTH of her wrists during that scene. All you are seeing is that she is wearing a long shirt that goes down to her fingers. But she does move and bend both wrists. And if you watch, you can see into the sleeve enough to tell there is no cast there.]
During the scene when they are playing Quidditch the shadows of the goal posts keep changing direction. [Not really. I think you are just seeing the two different sets of goal posts. One at each end. Naturally they do have different shadows, which are consistent with each other from what I can see.]
In the shot when Harry grabs the diary from Ginny, right before he grabs it you can see that her eyes are half open, and when he motions toward her, she shuts them tight. [On the DVD, I zoomed in on her face and went frame by frame, and her eyes were shut the entire time.]
In the first movie, the Dursley's house is on the end of a row of houses. You can see right before they head out to the zoo that there is a house attached on the right but none attached on the left. But in the Chamber of Secrets, when the Dursley's house is shown from outside, it's in the middle of a row, with other houses attached to both sides. [There are 3 more houses to the right of the Dursley's (as you are facing the house) as you see at the beginning of the first movie. And then a row of thick trees. When Harry is about to turn 11, there is a thin line of short trees and then more houses beyond that, so the subdivision has been built up since Harry was a baby. And you also do see down the street when Dumbledore first arrives and uses the Put-Outer. There are many houses on the left (as you face the house) of the Dursley's. And in the scene you mentioned when they leave for the zoo, the only time you can see what's on the left side of the house is a shot looking down at Harry and you can see the tire of a car in the driveway of the house next door. You can also see the houses on either side of the Dursley's when the owls are delivering letters from Hogwarts for Harry. So, I am sorry, but you are wrong. The Dursleys have always had several houses on BOTH sides of their house.]
In the book store in Diagon Ally, when Draco comes down the stairs his neck is showing, in a later shot his neck is being coved up by a turtle neck or something. [No, his neck is showing throughout the entire scene in the bookstore. The only thing that changes is the alignment of the edge of his cloak and the edge of his t-shirt. Sometimes they are completely even/level with each other, but most of the time the t-shirt is maybe a half inch above the edge of the cloak. ]
At the end of the film, in the Great Hall, the doors leading into the Hall are on the left, and the teacher's table is on the right. The camera leaves the Hall through the window, not changing angles, and where there should be more building for the doors to lead onto, there are three big windows and a drop down to the next floor. [The camera leaves through the windows behind the teachers and pans around, and you can see that there are more buildings sticking out of the other side of the Great Hall, just high enough for there to be a doorway leading out into the entry way to the Great Hall. ]
When harry sticks the sword into the basilisk's mouth, its fangs don't touch Harry's arm, but next scene he's wounded. [The fang went into Harry's arm because of the way he pulled the sword out, rather than the way he stuck it in.]
in the scene where the pixies are attacking Lockhart's class, the pixies fly out of the cage and towards Hermione who knocks her books off her desk in order to make it appear like the devilishly tricky little blighter's had done it. However it's obvious that she's the culprit. [She panicked and knocked her books over, it was actually scripted like that.]
Harry loses his grip when he falls out of the Anglia, and regains it in the next shot. [Although it may seem that Harry loses his grip, he doesn't. The Anglia has a longer grip area, that also angles down toward the open end of the door. As Harry falls out, he grasps the middle of the grip, then slips down the rest of the grip, making it appear that he has lost his grip and then regained it. He hand never loses contact though.]
In the scene where they're interrogating Malfoy, before Malfoy walks to the table and talks about the chamber, Malfoy's couch and Ron and Harry's (or Crabbe and Goyle's) get closer and further away from each other. Take when Malfoy says, "Dumbledore was the worst headmaster..." and Harry (or Goyle) say,"You're wrong," Malfoy just has to stand up to be in front of him and in other shots he about two metres away from them and there's a table in between. [It's a question of camera angles. The coffee table it there the entire time, but the way some of the shots were done make it appear that Draco is closer, or further away, than in other shots.]
