Directed by: Joe Johnston

Other mistake: When Nick is in the spoon, the milk around him turns green.
Other mistake: When Amy hits the button to tell her dad that breakfast is ready, he tries to type "I'll be down in five minutes." However, the message on the strip of paper says "I'll be down in five mimmicks." Amy says, "Typing with his gloves on again." Even if someone was typing with their gloves on, the blatant misspelling would not happen.
Continuity mistake: When Amy is in the kitchen cleaning, she starts mopping the floor, then dancing with the mop held upside down. The mop starts out wet, but when she's dancing it's dry (either that or she would be getting dirty mop water in her face while the mop is being flung around).
Russell 'Russ' Thompson, Sr.: Szalinski! Give it a rest! IT'S saturday.
Trivia: In the open-matte print, right after the credits, the support beams of the movie lot walls are visible, painted in blue to simulate the sky. In the theatrical version and the current Disney+ streaming movie's original aspect ratio (bottom picture), one can still see the beams for a split second after the postman puts the letter in the mailbox (though there's no way here to identify them as lot walls).
Question: When Don asks why Russell Sr. won't go on their trip, he says that Mae can't go due to "plumbing." Was he referring to her being on her period?
Answer: More along the lines of a serious health problem related to her "plumbing".
