Mistake Continuity: When Stanley is calling for Zero, the flap on the back of his hat keeps changing when the angles change.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene at the end where they open the chest you can see the father with rubber gloves on, he takes his left glove off to look at the stock papers. You see him with his right glove on still, then caveman takes one of the papers from his father and he doesn't have any gloves on, and in the next shot he has it back on his right hand

Mistake Other: When Sam is selling his onions, he asks an old man to take his hat off so he can see if he's bald so he'll know if he needs to sell him some hair growing tonic. The old man is just barely taking off his hat and before Sam can even tell the old man has no hair, Sam says "Mm hm, just as I thought."

Mistake Revealing: This is the scene in which Stanley and Zero dig up Kate Barlow's treasure. While they're holding it, we see a shot of Zero and a shot of Stanley.

Mistake Continuity: When Stanley first asked Armpit where to get water, Armpit throws him to the ground and the boys crowd over Armpit's shoulder in the close up. But from behind we see that the boys are more spread out.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Stanley and Zero are trying to get up God's Thumb, Zero cut his hands while trying to help Stanley. There is a plain view of his hands with no blood. In the next scene he has blisters and blood all over his hands. Where did they go when he first cut them?

Mistake Continuity: When Zero throws up on the rock, we then see him start to roll down the hill and for a split second we see that the rock he just threw up on is dry.
