Wreck-It Ralph

Continuity mistake: When Ralph sticks Sour Bill to a candy tree, the branch is directly under Sour Bill, but when Vanellope has become a princess later on, the branch is now facing Sour Bill's right. (01:13:00 - 01:28:15)

Casual Person

Revealing mistake: When Ralph returns to the penthouse after destroying Vanellope's kart, he goes out onto the balcony and we can see the corner of the 'OUT OF ORDER' sign reflected on the window to Ralph's left. The piece of tape is missing in the reflection.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Ralph smashes the cake, Mary is standing behind Gene. She's not holding anything during the smashing, but as Ralph begins to leave the party the camera shows Mary holding onto the cake figurines which would have been smashed previously. (00:13:40 - 00:14:15)

Continuity mistake: After Ralph destroys the cake and it goes all over the place, we cut to a wide shot. In this shot, to Gene's right, there is a small amount of cake on the floor. In the following shot, the amount of cake has doubled. Also after Ralph destroys the cake Mary is holding the people that were on top of the cake even though Ralph just destroyed them. (00:13:10)

Casual Person

Continuity mistake: When Ralph gets trapped inside the giant cupcake, the cherry rolls onto the ground. In the next shot, the cherry is gone.

Character mistake: During the race sign up scene, when each racer is throwing their coin into the gold cup as the entry fee, the announcer says Snowanna Rainbeau, and you can see a blue haired pig-tailed character just behind Rancis Fluggerbutter. This character is Citrusella Flugpucker, the 6th listed racer on the board, but she is announced as Jubileena Bing-Bing, who is listed 13th on the board. Jubileena Bing-Bing is the red pig-tailed racer, not the blue. (00:35:10)

Deliberate mistake: When Felix is about to receive his first medal, a few things change in a cut to a close-up. The building has grown much wider (32 notches under the roof compared to 22 before), giving the Nicelanders room to carry Ralph before throwing him, when previously Ralph was already against the edge. Additionally, a pair of large clouds has popped into the middle of the screen to cover the medal before it appears, which may have been considered too distracting to include in the previous shot. Later on, the medals which are engraved with Felix's name in-game instead bear a bas-relief hammer and gain a white stripe through the center of the ribbon when shown in 3D, a rather drastic change for what is only meant to be a view in greater detail. (Official recreations of the game work around the first issue by reducing the distances covered by objects on the roof to begin with.). (00:01:50)

Bag of Magic Food

Continuity mistake: It's established that in the candy cane trees, the double striped branches 'break'. When grabbed, they make a loud noise and flash for a moment, before just vanishing. When Ralph and Vanellope are racing to the Hero Metal at the top of a tree, Ralph hits several of these branches. Each time, the branch only lasts about a second or two after he touches it before vanishing. However, he then falls from the tree and lands on a branch that is double striped and hangs from it. While doing so, he proceeds to have a full on conversation with Vanellope, for a relatively long time. Yet the branch does not vanish till after she walks away, despite previous ones having only a second or two of time before vanishing. (00:30:35)

Quantom X

Continuity mistake: When Deanna begins to pull Felix onto the dance floor, she is wearing a shiny dress imprinted with leaves and flowers. When they take their places in the next shot, Deanna is suddenly in a plain pink dress, with no imprints. Then, although she remains on the dance floor for the entire shot, when Gene answers Felix in the very next shot, Deanna is suddenly with Gene by the door, and she's back in the dress with the shiny imprints for the rest of the scene. (00:09:55)

Bag of Magic Food

Other mistake: When Ralph smashes the giant cake, pink icing splatters the walls, the floor and the other video game characters. There are no pieces of the actual cake anywhere, only the icing.

Continuity mistake: When Felix calls Calhoun a "dynamite gal" she has a flashback of her former fiance calling her a dynamite gal. The last time he called her a dynamite gal, it was at the wedding. He only manages to say "dynamite" before the cy-bug bursts through the window and he gets eaten by the cy-bug. However, during the first flashback of Calhoun's former fiance before she and Felix enter Sugar Rush, it shows the former fiance getting eaten by the cy-bug at the wedding, but he didn't say "dynamite gal" before he was eaten. Also in the first flashback, their arms are by their side. But in the second flashback, their arms are interlocked with each other. (00:32:20 - 01:01:15)

Casual Person

Continuity mistake: When Ralph destroys the cake and it goes all over the apartment, Deanna, who is standing behind Gene, looks around. She is facing towards Gene is this shot, but looking in a direction towards Ralph in the next shot. (00:13:15)

Casual Person

Other mistake: When Ralph "checks in" at the Game Central Station after the villains meeting, he jokingly gives his name as Lara Croft. Lara Croft was never an arcade game character, so how would Ralph know about her?

Continuity mistake: When Ralph looks down on the entrance of Sugar Rush after being lifted by King Candy, you can see the path is empty between the three characters and the cybugs. But when Ralph frees himself from King Candy's grip and Vanellope starts glitching towards Ralph, you can see Calhoun's discarded weapon lying on the ground. Something so distinctly black would stand out on the rainbow bridge from a distance. (01:24:55)

Friso94

Continuity mistake: During the Hero's Duty scene we see Calhoun from the player's perspective. When Calhoun says "The kitten whispers and tickle fights stop now" the players ammo shows 3/15, showing a full clip is 15 shots. We then cut to Ralph running inside and then back to the player's view and the ammo is now 5/15. The player can't have reloaded the gun in that time as we saw the player when we cut to Ralph.

Christaffa

Continuity mistake: When Calhoun and Felix are in Game Central Station getting ready to enter Sugar Rush, one of the portals behind them is displaying the words "Now playing Burger Time," meaning the game is in progress. But shortly afterwards you can see Peter Pepper, the main character from that game, serving what looks like a pie to the characters from Q-bert. (00:31:20 - 00:31:55)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Ralph doesn't appear in the game, Felix climbs off the side of the apartments and exits the screen. In the next shot, he is just seen exiting the light source, indicating that he has left the screen again. (00:21:05)

Casual Person

Continuity mistake: In the scene where King Candy enters the program he goes out the direction of Vanellope's code box. In Sour Bill's flashback however, King Candy's rope is to the left while he's pushing Vanellope's code box to the right.

Sergeant Calhoun: Doomsday and Armageddon just had a baby and it is UGLY!

More trivia for Wreck-It Ralph

Question: If Gene is the only Nicelander who is not afraid of Ralph then why does he scream with fear as he sees Ralph at the door during the party? Shouldn't he have given Ralph a stern look and told him to leave? (01:41:00)

Answer: It wasn't that he was screaming out of fear of Ralph exactly, but more surprise to see Ralph of all people, as well as sudden fear of Ralph wrecking the party.
