Correction: Once Eve drops the bubble wrap, the bubble wrap doesn't fall directly at her feet - it can be seen beside the shelf. When Eve dropped it it probably drifted to the side because of how light it was. The bubble wrap can also be seen in another shot during that scene, where Wall-E moves to the far end of the vehicle and the screen shows a full shot of Eve along with the most of the vehicle's inside. In the shot if you look closely, the bubble wrap is lying beside the shelf.

Corrected entry: The actual Kuiper Belt (where the Axiom is located) is just outside Saturn's orbit. However on WALL-E's space voyage, he passes another sun and another galaxy. That's not right.

Correction: This mistake is riddle with errors. First, the Kuiper belt is located out past Neptune, not just outside Saturn's Orbit. Second, the Axiom is shown next to a purple Nebula, which isn't the Kuiper belt. There isn't any reference in the film to say that the Axiom is located at the Kuiper belt either. Fourth, Considering the sequence of the voyage, it is our own sun the rocket passes, most likely using the slingshot technique to give it more speed. The Galaxy shown is also our milky way.

Corrected entry: When Wall-E gets struck by lightning while holding an umbrella over EVE, watch his solar charge meter fill all the way up after the first strike.

Correction: The sites rules state that simple observations made by just watching the film are not 'trivia'.

Lummie

Corrected entry: The Zippo(C) lighter fluid would have evaporated and would not have ignited when attempting to light it.

Correction: Since this movie takes place in the future and we have no idea what the fluid in the lighter is, this isn't a mistake.

Corrected entry: At several points, Wall-E and Eve are speaking and making noises outside the Axiom. In reality, we shouldn't be able to hear anything.

Correction: This is a common moviemaking technique. We all know that there is no sound in space, yet we need to know what the characters are (trying) to communicate.

Correction: The evacuation occurred in our future. We don't know what kind of batteries they could have come up with. We don't have Wast Allocation Load Lifter technology yet either.

Phixius

Corrected entry: How do the Axiom and the robots run? Surely not solar power since they are in the Kuiper Belt with almost no sunlight. Not wind power. Nuclear power would require lots of water and getting rid of radioactive waste, with the possibility of a meltdown. How do they run?

Brooks Jr.

Correction: Just because something isn't directly explained in the film, it doesn't make it a mistake, merely an unanswered question; try to learn the difference and submit in that section next time. There are all sorts of possibilities - controlled fusion reactions, Star Trek-style matter/anti-matter annihilation. We're talking technology a hundred years more advanced than our own, who knows what they might have come up with.

Tailkinker

Correction: Having looked at the relevant shots closely, as I thought this sounded rather fun, I can't see him. Please provide additional information regarding his location in the scene.

Tailkinker

There are two bowling pins on one of the shelves. You can see his head in between.

Correction: It's a very clear shot. He is between two bowling pins.

Correction: The entire opening third of the movie is set around piles of trash. If you're going to point out things of this nature, please take the time to make it clear exactly where this can be seen. "Early in the movie" is not remotely sufficient.

Tailkinker

Correction: It's a very low chance that it is actually Skinner's scooter. There are probably hundreds of them amongst the rubbish.

Wall-E mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Wall-E presents Eve with the plant, he is facing her directly. When Eve is later viewing the footage from her security camera, Wall-E is shown facing at an angle towards the left of the screen, instead of straight ahead.

Trivia: EVE's iPod-like design can be attributed to the fact that she was designed by the same man who designed the iPod, Johnny Ive.
