Corrected entry: At the beginning of the movie, when the are showing "The Itchy and Scratchy Movie", Itchy launches the nuclear missiles which are initially spread apart but when they land in Scratchy's mouth they are all in one clump.

Correction: You can't seriously expect perfect continuity watching a cartoon within a cartoon.

But then itchy and scratchy had to be made as part of the Simpson's movie so it's still part of the film making it a mistake.

Ssiscool

Wrong. This is not a mistake. It was fully intentional and done for comical purposes.

Correction: Missiles can also change trajectory.

Phaneron

It was done as deliberate joke, so it isn't a mistake.

Corrected entry: In the mob scene the boyfriend of Milhouse's mother Luann is seen twice - he's somewhere in the middle, and also at the back of the mob.

Correction: No he isn't.

Corrected entry: When Frink says he made an acid firing super drill, there are people next to him on both his left and right. In the next shot (where we see the acid firing super drill outside the dome), there aren't any people standing next to him on the right, just the left. (00:28:10)

Casual Person

Correction: Due to the camera angles it does appear to be the case. However, you will notice that just before the camera cuts to show the drill, all the people behind Frink are in a line. When we see the drill, the people are still in a line but the people furthest from the camera appear to be closer to Frink.

Corrected entry: When Homer returns home with Spider-Pig, Maggie's high chair is positioned to be facing the archway between the kitchen and living room. A few seconds later, after Marge realises Spider-Pig is the twisted tail, Marge says "I believe what happened in church was a warning about precisely this" and Maggie's high chair is suddenly positioned to face the fridge. (00:15:30)

Casual Person

Correction: We see Maggie's highchair from a completely different angle and as such, the angle makes it appear it's facing the fridge when in reality it is still facing the arch.

Corrected entry: When Grandpa is freaking out in church, Milhouse's dad Kirk is sitting directly behind Homer. But when Homer is looking through the Bible to try and help Grandpa, there is no sign of Kirk at all. (00:05:45)

Casual Person

Correction: Due to the angle of the camera he will not be visible when Homer is flicking through the bible.

Ssiscool

I watched this scene carefully and at least part of him should have been visible.

I agree because Kirk is sitting at the end of the pew, and we can see part of the pew behind Homer that Kirk was sitting at.

Corrected entry: Right after the Simpsons escape through the sinkhole, the EPA commander throws his binoculars at the jeep and they bounce back at him. The binoculars never hit the windshield. They "hit" above it.

Correction: He throws the binoculars at the dome. Not the jeep.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: Willies hair changes from red to brown throughout the film. (01:13:55)

Correction: His hair stays the same dark colour throughout the movie.

Ssiscool

Actually it was shown that his hair was red near the start.

Corrected entry: Between the time Bart smacks onto the Krusty Burger window to when Ned Flanders offers him pants, the fries he has doubles.

Correction: There is a break between this time as we see the sun set outside when Nelson is laughing at him. Nothing says Ned can't order more fries.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: At the church, the lady plays "American Idiot." When the Simpson family comes in, she is still playing, but we can't hear a tone. (00:04:40)

Correction: She isn't playing when they enter. She is sat with her hands in her lap.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Homer and Bart are headed for the sign of Springfield, it is intact, but in the close-up, the P has moved so they can stunt on it. Also I think that the sign might be whole even though it was cut in two earlier in the film.

Correction: The sign is still split. The P however stays in the same place. It's just the camera view.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Lisa is going door-to-door about Lake Springfield one of the houses floats away, in the next few frames there is no empty space where the house was.

Correction: There is always an empty space.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: A heavenly beam of light falls on the bike that Homer uses to ride up the dome, but the bike wasn't there in previous shots. (01:07:45)

Blibbetyblip

Correction: The bike is out of shot.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Marge closes the curtain in the motel room the other curtain changes from being open and closed between shots. (00:38:15)

Correction: It stays closed throughout the scene.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: Right after when Homer asks what the secret knock is, the lock changes from a rectangle with a circle, to a rectangle, back to a rectangle with a circle. (00:38:50)

Correction: The hole isn't visible due to the angle of the shot. The camera is by the wall so you wouldn't see the hole. No mistake here.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: Before Green Days' Funeral there is a Text board outside the Church. Later, when the dome is being lowered over the town and the people in the church run into Moe's and the people in Moe's run into the Church, the text board is gone.

Correction: Since some time has passed between the instances the church could have moved it.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Homer's "Pig Crap" silo is found a police man is writing a report on a notepad. The police man moves the notepad down, but the words on it stay where they are and they go through the police man's shirt.

Correction: Not so, the police officer doesn't lower the pad.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: In the scene where Homer opens the poster of Alaska he opens it in hundreds of squares, during shots the size of the squares he unfolded it from changes multiple times.

Correction: Having just watched this film, they don't change from what I can see.

Ssiscool

Corrected entry: When Bart is hiking up the hill with Flanders, in the wide shot Flanders has a walking stick and Bart doesn't, but it then cuts to a closer shot and Bart suddenly has a stick.

Correction: Bart has a stick the whole time.
