Cigars of the Pharaoh: Part 1 - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: After the plane flies off, the gunmen continue to fire. If you look at the gunman on the bottom left, every time he shoots, a small smoke cloud comes out of the shotgun. The smoke cloud just stays on the edge of the shotgun until he shoots the next time. (00:20:55)

Other mistake: The detectives run away from a goat that chases after them. If you watch their movements and the goat's movements, you will see the goat isn't running in the direction they are running in just after they jump over a sand hill. (00:15:25)

Cigars of the Pharaoh: Part 1 - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: The shot of the letter being placed into the envelope and being stamped with the symbol is used twice. The first time is after Tintin meets R.J. Rastapopolis. The second time is after the boat arrives at the docks and Tintin goes onto another boat. Notice how the way he closes the envelope is the same and the stamp of the symbol is placed in the exact same position. (00:03:30 - 00:05:05)

Trivia: There is a mistake pointing out that the newspaper at the end is a flipped shot.

Steven Spielberg went on to direct the Tintin movie Secret of the Unicorn in 2011. (00:43:35)
