In the scene where Ren is dancing in the warehouse, he takes off his sweatshirt on the second level and throws it at his feet. His beater-T is clean then. After he jumps back down to the first level, his beater-T is dirty. Then he goes through a door and slides down the staircase and his beater-T is clean again. See more...

At the end when Ren and Willard are fighting the guys outside the dance, they get noticeably dirty. When Ren returns to the dance, his clothes are clean. [The prom suit may have looked clean, but I could definitely tell it had some soil on it, even without a close up.]
As Ren is dancing through the factory we see him take off his sweater and dump it on the ground. Later once he comes across Ariel back at his car we see him go and pick up his sweater from a nearby train carriage which is not near where he left it. [The dancing scene in the warehouse is a montage of the entire time he was there, thus giving him, or even Ariel, who was watching him, time to move it somewhere else.]

When Ren and Chuck are playing chicken in the end and Chuck bails out, he falls into water. However, when it zoomed out when they first start moving, there was no water visible in the scene. [It's not visible because it is so far away. The water is down in a ditch so you can't see it from the zoomed out view because of the angle it was shot at. You can however see it in a beginning scene before they start.]
How is it that, in a town where dancing has been forbidden for years, at the end of the movie, everyone's able to crank out the newest, most popular dance moves flawlessly? [Dancing wasn't forbidden on televisions. And kids could have certainly seen the moves and practiced them in secret. As we see many times, people dance all over the town and never get caught. Just because dancing is outlawed doesn't mean people don't do it.]

When Kevin Bacon is teaching his friend to dance, you can actually see the ground he is dancing on wobble and move up and down. [He is actually standing on the back of a trailer. You can see the edges of it. It's very dirty and does look a lot like the ground but it's a trailer.]
