The Polar Express (2004)

Corrected entry: If Lonely Boy has not been 'naughty', and we are meant to assume he has not, and since Santa does exist, why has he not visited the boy's house previous Christmases?

Correction: We do not know that Santa didn't visit his house the previous years. All the information we are given is that Christmas didn't work out for him so there could be another reason. e.g. His brother/sister(s) could have either taken or broken his presents the previous years. Who knows?

Titanic (1997)

Corrected entry: In the side view of the ship, you can see smoke coming out of all 4 smokestacks. The first one was not a working smokestack, but was there for balance.

Correction: The first smokestack was fully functional, as were the middle two. The aft most smokestack was a dummy funnel. It provided not balance but lighting and ventilation to the engineering spaces below decks. There were steam valves on it that could be mistaken for smoke while discharging, plus exhaust from the other 3 is blown backwards over the 4th, giving it the appearance of producing just as much smoke as them.
