Trivia

When Jim Carrey, as Count Olaf, is being told that the Baudelaires parents are dead he says "Yes, of course. How very, very awful". Then he suddenly says "Wait, let me do that one more time. Give me the line again. Quickly, while it's fresh in my mind.". That was pure improvising and was not supposed to be in the movie. Jim Carrey actually wanted to do that shot again. But the directors thought it fit in the movie and included it. See more...

Mistake Continuity: When Violet and Klaus make the tent inside their bedroom in Count Olaf's house, they set up the light with the faces of their parents on it in front of it. Except when it shows the shadow of the object outside the tent, the edge of the picture frame isn't showing when it should.

Mistake Continuity: When Violet opens the closet with the rat, she is holding a pile of plates. If you look at the upper plate you can see it has curvy edges. When it cuts from a view inside the closet you can see it is a different plate on top of the pile, because the edges on it are plain.

Mistake Continuity: When Mr. Poe and the Baudelaires arrive at Uncle Monty's he has his snake twirled around his arm as he reach out to shake Violet's hand. When it cuts the way the snake is twirled around his arm has changed.

Mistake Continuity: When the Baudelaires jump over from the broken piece of the house over to the rest of the house, as they land, you can see to the right that there is a big hole in the wall where there should be a window with sprinkles. As they run out of the house, right before it falls in to the lake you can see the sprinkles are suddenly mended.

Mistake Continuity: After the death of Uncle Monty, Stephano says "I do feel somewhat responsible for this tragedy". At the same time you can see a policeman carrying a box passing Violet in the background. When it cuts he passes her again.

Mistake Continuity: Right after Olaf has asked who should play the most handsome count it cuts and we see the acting troupe from behind. We can see Luis Guzmán's character holding his glass still by his chest. When it cuts he is suddenly drinking from the glass. Also the people on the couch change positions between the shots.
