Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry In the "Whale of a Tale" scene: When Kirk Douglas is singing the second verse of the song, the other sailors start laughing before he gets to the punchline of the joke in the song. [There two possible reasons for this. 1) They're sailors, it's not impossible they've been drinking and are just laughing. 2) Kirk Douglas seems to only know that one song. By that point the voyage had gone on for over 3 months. It's possible he had performed it before and they were laughing knowing what was coming. It could even be a combination of both those.]
Time
Entry If you look at the sub in its side shots, the lights on the side appear to be a smiling face. [How is that possibly trivia?]
Time
Entry In the scene where Kirk Douglas is singing "Whale of a Tale," the guitar he's "playing" doesn't appear to have any strings. [The guitar does indeed have strings. They are visible several times, when the light hits them at just the right angle.]
Time
Entry The title is impossible! For starters, a league is a horizontal distance measurement, ie. length, not depth. In addition, I'm not exactly sure, but I believe it would be a length of about two and a half times around the earth. So, it would be utterly impossible to travel that far under the sea even if it was a depth measurement. [The title refers to the horizontal distance travelled while under the surface of the sea, rather than the depth under the sea].
