Corrected entry: Mavis knows her parents met in Hawaii because she found her father's souvenir postcard. Mavis is 118, which means her parents met in the 1890's at the latest. There were no postcards like that for Hawaii in the 1890's.

Correction: There's no reason to think this. The US was first introduced to postcards in 1873 (although they were invented in 1840) and the first "souvenir" postcards were sold in 1893 (before Mavis was born). By 1898, over 200 companies were selling Hawaii postcards, so obviously there was a market for them and no reason to think local businesses couldn't create said postcard.

Corrected entry: When everyone is playing "Charades," the Invisible Man shakes his head. The earpieces on his glasses open and close while his head is shaking. This would mean not only is he invisible, he would have no substance.

Correction: It's just a trick of perspective, they don't really open and close. As he turns his head, the angle from which we see the glasses makes it appear as though one arm has been folded in because we don't have any point of reference (such as a face) to show us that the frames have merely rotated.

Phixius

Corrected entry: When Dracula comes between Johnathon and Mavis after catching them kissing, Mavis' right hand is near her face. In the next shot, her hand is down by her side.

Correction: If you watch closely, she pulls her hand down the moment before the "camera" switches.

Continuity mistake: When Dracula is heading towards Mavis' room, one of the rooms he walks past is Room 174. When he finally reaches Mavis room, her room number is also 174.

Dracula: [Sees a Twilight movie playing.] This is how we're represented. Unbelievable.

More quotes from Hotel Transylvania

Question: I don't quite understand, when all the other monsters find out Jonathon is actually a human, why does he suddenly decide he hates monsters? Wasn't he impressed with monsters even when he initially thought the ones at the hotel were people dressed in costumes?

Answer: He simply says that he hates monsters because he's respecting Dracula's wish and placing a barrier between himself and Mavis. He's trying to prevent her falling for him. He says this in the movie: "if I didn't say that your dad would have killed me."
