Corrected entry: Just after the door is shredded, Mr. Waternoose or his assistant says something like "That's 56 doors this week. Kids just don't scare like they used to." 56 doors in a week is nothing when you consider that a kid is born roughly every 3 seconds - that works out at around 201,600 doors every week. Shredding 56 doors still leaves them with 201544 doors, which seems a lot more doors than they have monsters.

Corrected entry: When Sully and Waternoose are talking, Waternoose pours himself a cup of coffee. Just after Waternoose takes a sip, Sully demonstrates his scaring ability on him and he drops his cup. The sound we hear is of an empty cup hitting the floor, but didn't Waternoose just fill it with coffee? There should have been a splash type noise to indicate the coffee has spilt on the floor.
Correction: Look more carefully at the "coffee" - it isn't liquid, but thick, heavy sludge. Thus, if a cup of that stuff was dropped on the floor, we wouldn't hear any splashing.

Corrected entry: When Boo is first discovered by Mike & Sully, they refer to Boo as 'it' and 'the child'. During the bathroom scene when Sully tells Mike that he named the child Boo, his exact words are "That's what I named her". There is no explanation why he switched the pronoun from 'it' to 'her'. For the rest of the movie, they do refer to Boo as 'her'.

Correction: Waternoose isn't concerned about the total number of doors available - as seen later in the film, there are plenty back there to utilize - but rather about the RATE they are losing doors. A door here and there is not so bad, but 56 doors in a week could be the indicator of much worse things to come.
