Continuity mistake: After Cozy Heart Penguin jumps on board with the Care Bears, a whirlpool begins to swerve the cloud clipper and Tenderheart's steering wheel begins to spin out of control. Initially the wheel has eight handles, but look closely once it stops: now only six handles are there. (00:36:50)
Continuity mistake: When Nicholas accidentally drops his shoe into the cauldron, an explosion causes him to jump back. At this moment, look quickly at the podium nearby. Notice how the evil spirit's face is temporarily missing from the book. (00:59:50)
Other mistake: When the evil spirit tells Nicholas to undo the book's lock, notice how the key he pulls from the lock is bigger than the hole it comes out of. (00:16:05)
Continuity mistake: During "Nobody Cares Like a Bear," Secret Bear tries (unsuccessfully) to open the door with his cane. He then tucks it beneath his arm and tries again. Once several Care Bears line up to help, the door finally opens...but now the cane has vanished. (00:13:15)
Deliberate mistake: During "Nobody Cares Like a Bear," Kim opens a gift box containing a balloon. Secret Bear then grabs it and floats away. But when Grumpy Bear tosses a star and pops the balloon, confetti flies out of it and, for the next second, keeps reappearing from nowhere. (00:14:05)
Continuity mistake: When Fetuccini's house of cards topples, not a single one hits the floor. But when Tenderheart walks over to see what's going on with Nicholas, he passes the desk where several cards from the house are now laying on the floor. (00:07:30)
Continuity mistake: When the cloud clipper first appears from beneath Care-a-Lot's river, notice how there's a star-o-scope on the bow. Moments later, Wish Bear steps up to the bow...but the star-o-scope has disappeared. (00:26:25)
Other mistake: When Nicholas is getting ready to lug the magic trunk, notice how the 'Joe's Antiques' truck is parked alongside him. But as the truck starts up and pulls away, exhaust fumes blow towards Nicholas as though he were behind the truck. (00:07:00)
Continuity mistake: When the rainbow rescue beam platform is visible for the first time, it has a solid pink color. But throughout the movie, its color alternates from pink to red with pink sides. (00:09:35 - 00:13:30)
Revealing mistake: When Nicholas is being scolded about the magic trunk, a shadow of Fetuccini is cast upon the floor. During the shot where Fetuccini says "Maybe there's some junk I could use in my magic act," he leans back but the shadow does not correspond to his movement. (00:07:45)
Continuity mistake: When Tenderheart grabs Kim's hand to lead the way towards the rainbow rescue beam, a small red heart is visible on both of his sides. These hearts, however, are only supposed to appear on a Care Bear's right side. (00:23:40)
Other mistake: During the Care Bear Cousin inauguration, Bright Heart Raccoon's tummy symbol appears intermittently stenciled on his tummy a few moments before he officially receives one from Tenderheart. (01:07:45)
Continuity mistake: Following a cloud quake that interrupts the rainbow rescue beam's transmission, Tenderheart pulls himself up from the floor. Here we can see Wish Bear in the background. After Grumpy Bear says "They never made it to Earth!", Cheer Bear appears in Wish's place. (00:24:45)
Continuity mistake: When Tenderheart is navigating the cloud clipper, Lotsa Heart warns of a cave nearby. As they make way through the opening and slow to a crawl, nobody is anywhere near the helm. (00:42:55)
Continuity mistake: As Fetuccini is standing near the door possessed by a sleeping spell, Tenderheart enters the room and speaks to Nicholas. In the background, Fetuccini's feet are spread a couple of feet apart. But after Nicholas turns around to ask "Who are you?", the feet have instantly moved within inches of each other. (00:17:35)
Continuity mistake: When Baby Tugs activates the rainbow rescue beam, all of the different buttons start flashing. The next shots bring a heart-shaped structure into view and at this point, the buttons briefly stop flashing; but they resume as soon as Grumpy intervenes to shut down the beam. (00:11:15)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Kim and Jason are inside the Hall of Hearts being taken on a tour of Care-a-Lot, Secret Bear leads the way sporting a top hat and carrying a cane. When he pops his hat into the air, notice how the cane's handle is facing different directions in alternating shots. All the while, several other Care Bears are lined up watching. Note that Share and Champ Bear are standing beside each other. However, Cheer Bear briefly appears in Share Bear's place right before everyone proceeds outside. (00:12:45)
Continuity mistake: When Nicholas is about to gather the broken contents of the magic trunk, an evil spirit speaks to him from a book. Suddenly, he staggers back and passes out in the trunk. Later on when he comes to, notice how all of the trunk's contents have disappeared from the floor. (00:08:30 - 00:15:00)
Continuity mistake: When Kim and Jason are running with their heads turned, they circle around a tent and soon collide with Nicholas, causing him to trip over a hose and land several feet on the other side of it. Once Nicholas reaches out to capture the two children, we can see him sitting on opposite side of the hose. (00:54:20)
Continuity mistake: As Nicholas is carrying a magic trunk into the trailer, Fetuccini sits in his swivel chair constructing a house of cards. Notice how the chair's back support is held up by one solid piece. In a different shot, Nicholas is losing his balance - here's where Fetuccini's chair has three posts holding up the back support. Later, Fetuccini is plucking his mustache on the same chair but now it strangely has two posts. (00:07:15 - 00:14:55)
