Geri's Game picture

Deliberate mistake: Throughout the whole short film, Geri's hair doesn't move or react to anything (such as the wind or his glasses). The glasses even seem to go through his hair without any movement in his hair. (00:01:00 - 00:03:35)

Lady and the Tramp picture

Deliberate mistake: When the Darlings discover the dead rat, they raise the curtain and cry out loud, but the rat is nowhere to be seen. Given Disney's long time history of refusals to show dead bodies or blood, it's highly possible that this was a deliberate mistake, but really awkward indeed.

Paddington 2 picture Video

Deliberate mistake: Paddington puts a red sock in the load of prison clothes which turns all their clothes pink. However, it was a single red sock in the "uniforms" machine, but in the next scene the entire prison is wearing pink clothes now. The machine is nowhere near big enough to wash all the uniforms at once - the pile we see is huge.

Deliberate mistake: When young Odette is sliding down the banister, and gets stuck spinning around the end of it, it would be impossible to spin like that without her legs hitting the rail that she just slid down.

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh picture The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh mistake picture

Deliberate mistake: Several times during the movie the narrator explains what happens while the book flips its pages. During this, every page is identical to the last one so the animation has simply been copied/reused to save time and money.

Deliberate mistake: In the Spanish release, the name of the family store is written in Spanish, but inside the place it's in English everywhere. This is a very common mistake in foreign kids' films released in Spain.
