Stuart Little

Factual error: When the police arrive at the Little house to take the "missing person" report, their car has a blue light on top. Police in New York display red lights.

Factual error: When Stuart is in the washing machine it completely fills up to the top - washing machines only fill up with water 1-3 inches high. When the mother goes to open the door and get him out, it opens straight away. This isn't possible, washing machines never open during a cycle.

Suggested correction: Not true, a washing machine would simply stop running if the door was opened.

Washing machines lock, so you can't open the door, or at least my front loader does.

Questions

Question: I've never adopted kids before so that's why I'm asking this question; When Stuart is being adopted, I noticed that on his papers, the parents were listed as Mr. And Mrs. Little. My question is, why aren't their first names on there? George's first name was, so why weren't theirs on there as well? Is that a mistake or is it common?

Answer: I wouldn't call it a "mistake" as the movie did that on purpose for both a gag and an emphasis on Stuart becoming a Little. This is definitely not practice for actually adopting children. You must put your first name on the paperwork.
