Corrected entry: At the start of the film, the tiny baby cub is presented to everyone. In real life, a lioness would hide her offspring for about 2 months. This cub is way too small to be old enough that his mother would present him.
Corrected entry: Pumba can't live on bugs as warthogs are herbivores, not insectivores.
Correction: This would be better under trivia given everything else animals do in "The Lion King" that animals don't actually do, not including talking. For example, Meerkats don't walk on their hind legs.
Correction: Warthogs are omnivores, known to eat insects. Besides, nobody says Pumba isn't eating roots and grass as well.
Corrected entry: Dark manes are more attractive to lionesses. Scar should've been more popular as his is pure black.
Corrected entry: After Scar warns Mufasa never to turn his back on him, he turns away and walks gingerly out of the cave. Scar is about to take a step with his right paw immediately before the shot changes. Once it does, his left paw takes the next step instead. (00:06:20)
Corrected entry: After the presentation of Simba, Mufasa and Zazu confront Scar in a cave. Right before Scar walks offscreen, watch how Zazu changes his position. When Zazu snaps at Scar by saying "Pity. Why not?", he's standing right between both of Mufasa's front paws. But from one frame to the next he's standing significantly further away from them. (00:06:30)
Corrected entry: In the very first scene in the movie, where Scar is playing with the mouse, the size of the mouse relative to Scar changes between shots. When he's rolling it over his 'fingers' we can see that its body is roughly the same size as a finger, but while it's pinned down as Scar talks to Zazu it seems much smaller than that. Finally, when the mouse escapes, it's much larger than it was in the beginning.
Corrected entry: During the presentation of Simba, two elephants kneel down. In the overhead shots before and after, there is only a group of three and one apart from the others. (00:03:35)
Continuity mistake: Nala's eyes change from blue to green quite often during the movie.
Suggested correction: Her eyes were green the whole time. It's just lighting making it look like they changed color.
The correction assumes these lions are filmed, but they are drawn. So if the eyes are blue, they coloured it blue and if it's green they coloured it green, on purpose.
They are colored to emulate different lighting conditions. Note that the fur is also different colors in the different shots.
A darker shade of the same color isn't the same as a whole other color.
Continuity mistake: Throughout numerous scenes in the movie, Ed's ear notches switch places.
Suggested correction: Incorrect. The notches remain the same throughout the film; they just get overlapped by other colours.
Correction: And in real life a mandrill wouldn't hold him up to show all the animals that gathered to see him. And in real life a lion wouldn't sing songs with a meerkat and warthog.
