Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius

Corrected entry: When they are camping on the meteor, Carl states that he should have never wished on that shooting star earlier in the film when it was Jimmy who made the wish for all the parents to disappear.

Correction: Carl says "WE should have never wished on that star."

Corrected entry: In the classroom after Cindy is done explaining her dinosaur report she heads back to her desk, Jimmy and Cindy get in an argument when it cuts to Jimmy, in the background you see Carl standing up and not sitting. (00:09:40)

Correction: He is sitting, his arm is resting over the head rest of his desk.

Corrected entry: When Jimmy is in his little rocketship launching his toaster satellite into space, the morning newspaper that his dad is reading already has the photo of the rocketship on the front page as a UFO. But the military jets were the first ones to spot the rocketship, the newspaper couldn't have gotten the story and printed it out that quick.

Correction: This was not Jimmy's first attempt to launch the toaster satellite into space.

Correction: Earlier in the movie, it's been stated he has made several attempts at launching into space from the roof.

Correction: If you watch the TV series, in The Junkman Cometh, Jimmy starts to explain to Sheen how that works before being interrupted by Carl. Either way, Jimmy has a method.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Jimmy's parents are kidnapped, their bedroom is next to the kitchen, however, in other parts in the movie, the parents' bedroom is upstairs.

Correction: Their bedroom is shown only once in the movie and it is next to the kitchen.

Corrected entry: When Jimmy and Carl are in space the first time at the beginning of the movie Jimmy has all his clothes on, then after he gets home he is in his room with boxers on and gets dressed again.

Correction: When Jimmy arrives home from space by crashing his jet into the roof, he goes to his room to get changed for school. Jimmy's dressing machine removes his clothes before dressing him again in an identical outfit.

Correction: If you watch the tv show, Jimmy, Sheen , and Carl go into space in an episode and Sheen asks Jimmy this same question. Just as Jimmy is about to explain Carl starts singing so you cant hear what is being said. Jimmy has obviously come up with an invention to help them breathe in space.

Corrected entry: When the aliens are watching Jimmy's greeting video, there is a shot where he is showing a picture of his parents. When he points to his mom, he says "Dad" and when he points to his dad he says "Mom." A slight mixup. (00:30:12)

Correction: Right after this happens, and the aliens begin to talk about how delicious the parents look, in the background you can hear Jimmy saying that he got it backwards.

Corrected entry: When the kids are modifying the rides so they can fly them, Jimmy checks up on all the rides/rockets and sees that Cindy and her friend have decorated the rocket so space can have a feminine touch, it has flowers and stuff on it. In space, it then doesn't have any flowers or stars or things.

Correction: When their ride launches you can see the decorations fall off.

Corrected entry: When Jimmy tells Goddard to do an adult scan, Jimmy said that there are no adults within radar but later they show you the teacher.

Correction: The teacher was too small to be detected.

Corrected entry: When Nick tells Jimmy, Carl, and Sheen about sneaking out to Retroland, he skates off into the ally and says "Anyone who matters is gonna be there", his lips aren't in sync with the sound.

BigOLB

Correction: He is facing away when his starts to say that line and cuts to a far away shot where his mouth is barely visible.

Character mistake: When Jimmy explains to the kids of the town where the aliens took their parents, he mentions the origin of the aliens being somewhere in the Orion Star System, 3 million light years away. The Orion system is way closer than that. It is actually less than 1400 light years away from Earth. 3 million light years away would place them further than the Andromeda Galaxy.

Suggested correction: This shouldn't be a character mistake. A genius like Jimmy would know something like this. It's basic astronomy.

That's exactly why it's a character mistake. A character mistake is when a character does or says something that they shouldn't based on who/what they are suppose to be, or something a character wrongly states as fact when they should know better.
