Audio problem: When the wolves attack Maurice and Philippe, the wolves make growls that only big cats (lions/tigers) would make.

Hotel Transylvania (2012)
Character mistake: When Dracula puts Johnny on a time-out, it is shown that Dracula has the ability of psychokinesis. Yet during the scene when Mavis visits the human village, when one of the dressed up zombies loses its head, Dracula jumps into the scene to physically put the head back to its body, further risking being spotted by Mavis, which he wanted to avoid. (00:16:15)
RassdytSuggested correction: Using this power would also be a risk of Mavis finding out because his magic has blue effects around which she would spot.
I doubt that, she was facing the opposite direction of the headless zombie the entire time, and the zombie didn't stand too close to her. However, I have realised that the magic does seem to make sound, and the headless zombie did stand close enough to Mavis for her to would have heard Dracula's magic if he were to have used it.

Beauty and the Beast (1991)
Question: Gaston sings that he ate eggs to help him get large. Why didn't he say meat? Was he vegetarian? Was Disney deliberately supporting vegetarianism/respecting vegetarians? Are there any historical circumstances that I'm not aware of? Or am I just overanalyzing this matter?
RassdytAnswer: In addition to eating meat, eggs would be a more readily available and cheap protein source in the village.

Answer: Eggs are full of protein. Eating a lot of eggs is an excellent way to bulk up and build muscle mass.
BaconIsMyBFFEggs are not good for you if you eat too many of them.
To quote Stephen Fry: "Well of course too much is bad for you, that's what "too much" means. If you had too much water it would be bad for you, wouldn't it? "Too much" precisely means that quantity which is excessive, that's what it means. Could you ever say "too much water is good for you"? I mean if it's too much it's too much. Too much of anything is too much. Obviously." That aside, while it used to be believed that the cholesterol content of eggs was a health risk, more recent studies have shown that dietary cholesterol doesn't affect blood cholesterol levels for most people. As such there's no real maximum limit on egg consumption beyond the aforementioned "too much of anything is too much".
I don't think Gaston cares much about his cholesterol.
BaconIsMyBFFThey didn't even know the word.
lionheadAnswer: While I was waiting for this question to be accepted, I found the answer to one of my questions myself. Gaston is indeed not vegetarian, considering he mentions his hunting trophies during the aforementioned song and earlier in the movie, he tells Belle to imagine him roasting his kill on the fire place.

A Picture Is Worth 1,000 Bucks - S2-E11
Other mistake: Brian says he met Antonio Monatti when he was with Andy Warhol in the '70s. This is an impossibility. Only several episodes earlier (in episode Brian in Love), we find out that Brian is 7 years old.

Robin Hood (1973)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, when we see Prince John marching from a significant distance, there are 18 rhino guards walking in front of the two elephants who are dragging Prince John's wagon. In the next shot when the camera is closer to the march, there are only 12.

Common mistakes
Deliberate mistake: Characters who are being confined in an area (typically inside cages, prisons cells, et cetera) that provides enough space for the character to escape, but they still consider themselves stuck (e.g. the iron bars of a cage/prison cell having enough distance between each other to allow the character to squeeze through between them). This is more common in cartoons and animated films.

Yug Ylimaf - S11-E4
Continuity mistake: In reversed time, we see Cleveland falling back to the inside of his house that had just been wrecked by Peter who launched himself with a cannon into it. The camera zooms in on Cleveland as he falls back to the inside of his house, only for Peter to suddenly be visible along with an additional piece of the roof taken away, after the area in which Peter would appear on and the roof-piece disappear at was off-camera for a few seconds.

Question: As Jackson manages to get hold of the map that leads to the arks in China, he tells Gordon, his ex-wife and kids that they'll need a bigger plane. Why do they need a bigger plane? (01:05:00)
RassdytAnswer: The small plane they were flying on would likely not have the range to get across the Pacific to Tibet, even assuming there were still intact islands where it was possible to refuel.
Answer: Probably because there are now more passengers being carried, more supplies are needed to be brought along, and a bigger plane can carry more fuel and travel farther.

Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga
Question: Does anyone have a clue why Anakin Skywalker from The Phantom Menace was given a normal sized body instead of a shorter one like other smaller characters in the game?
RassdytAnswer: Originally they were not. The earliest Lego Star Wars sets had normal sized legs.
Answer: Because they are Lego. Most Lego men regardless of age or species are the exact same size.
Quantom X
Characters who are significantly smaller/shorter (typically young children) are usually depicted with shorter legs in Lego games, those type of legs which aren't rotatable and doesn't have holes in them (excluding the bottom of their feet). Yoda and Boba Fett (From Attack of the Clones), on the other hand, has those type of legs in the game.
RassdytAt the time of Phantom Menace, Lego did not have those short legs. By the time Attack of the Clones was released, they had developed them. The use of long legs for Anakin is accurate.

The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2015)
Factual error: Spongebob and Plankton are told to supervise the universe for Bubbles while he goes on a bathroom break, this result in Jupiter and Saturn colliding with each other. Saturn is depicted as much smaller in relation to Jupiter than it is in reality. Also, the effect of their collision is inaccurate since both planets are mainly made up of gas. (00:44:50)

I Am Legend (2007)
Question: While Will Smith was burying his deceased dog, I remember him taking some pills. Were the pills intended to decrease his sadness for his loss/keep him from going insane of him now being totally alone?
RassdytAnswer: I'd say they are just painkillers, seeing how he just casually chucks a whole bunch down like skittles. If you do that with antidepressant or something like Ritalin (to keep you awake) your heart will stop. He probably has a headache.

Continuity mistake: In episode 6, right before Brian's death when Stewie decides to go back inside the house to get his knee pads, he stops right before he enters the house. In this episode, when the same sequence is displayed along with Stewie (from the future) returning to that time, his former self never stops before entering the building. (00:18:40)

Immediately after Tiny Rick shows up, Morty is suddenly standing behind the third locker from the left. But also, Tiny Rick originally appeared on the right side of Morty and has suddenly switched to Morty's left side in the following shot. (00:04:10)

Answer: He saw through the trick that Hux was pulling, being shot in a non-vital spot. He probably did not know 'for sure' but it's a scene that has the purpose to depict him as astute and ruthless. Let's say chances were very high that Hux was the spy (high ranking, with a disdain for the Supreme Leader, and now he conveniently lets the prisoner escape) and he had such disregard for human life that he had no second thoughts about a slim chance of murdering an innocent - and in best case scenario, incompetent - officer.
