Chicken Run picture

Other mistake: Ginger is adamant that she will not approve any plan of escape that does not get all the chickens on the farm out and to freedom. The problem is, not one of her plans gets anywhere close, and it is not that they fail to liberate the whole farm - they are never planned that way. We see her trying to escape by herself three times. The mannequin of Mrs Tweedy would (had it worked) have allowed nine chickens to escape, the upturned feed tray just seven. Even the 'crate' appears to hold not more than thirty chickens - and there must be several hundred on the farm, at least.

Suggested correction: Can you be sure we see the whole escape plan from start to finish or just one of the phases?

Of course we are sure. The "crate", with thirty six chickens on it, is flown away from the farm and is dismantled. They cannot go back to the farm for the rest of the chickens. Escaping by herself will achieve nothing for anyone except herself, totally contradicting her own principles. The posting is absolutely correct.

I believe the original correction makes sense. For example, we see them attempt to impersonate Mrs. Tweedy. While this would only liberate some of the chickens, we don't know that's the entire plan. It's likely they're trying it to see if it's successful, and if so the rest of the chickens would repeat it until they were all out. Similarly, digging out would leave a tunnel for the rest to use. When Ginger tries alone, she's likely trying to find a way out that she could tell the rest about.

This isn't a chatroom so this will be my last word. The "crate" is a single use, one-off device. The chickens fly it away from the farm, escaping to their island. They cannot go back and there is absolutely no reason to think that they do. Mrs Tweedy is still in residence at the farm and now is forewarned about the ability of the chickens to organise and act intelligently. Even if they wanted to they could not fly back, and Tweedy would be waiting for them if they did. The crate holds thirty eight chickens. That's it. There is no plan in effect that will allow all of the chickens to escape - especially this one - and Ginger makes it clear she will not consider any plan unless it does. The posting is absolutely correct.

The Road to El Dorado picture

Other mistake: In the scene where Tzekel-Kan reveals the big tiger thing, he is on his knees facing it. He says "do as I command" and raises his right arm and the tiger raises his left arm. The tiger and Tzekel-Kan should both raise the same hand because the tiger is built to mimic Tzekel-Kan's exact moves.

Digimon: The Movie picture

Other mistake: When Tai is typing an e-mail of apology to Sora, he accidentally types "Love Tai" as opposed to "From Tai" which he finds more appropriate. At that moment, Kari walks in, resulting in Tai's embarrassed stumble into the keyboard. We then see a highlighted "From Tai" change into "Love Tai". It is possible that Tai had already changed it before we saw it and then accidentally pushed Ctrl+Z upon Kari's arrival, but this is more than doubtful.

The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle picture

Other mistake: When Rocky jumps off the lighthouse in a failed effort to fly, he falls and hits the ground. Once on the ground, we see his goggles are unevenly on because of the crash. However, one of his goggles actually goes through his head.
