The Adventures of Tintin

The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 1 - S3-E3

Factual error: When Tintin and Haddock are watching the two clowns performing on stage, the clown of the left is shown stepping in a spilt puddle of water on the stage, but the water is never affected, even when he steps in it. The water just remains completely still and no water is ever shown dripping off the clown's shoe. (00:04:40)

The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4

Factual error: When Tintin begins climbing the tree to see if the intruder is hiding, he jumps up and grabs one of the tree branches. The branch is practically unaffected by the Tintin's added weight. There is no sound heard when the branch is grabbed hold of, nor are there any vibrations made to the branch when Tintin grabs it.

The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4

Factual error: When the intruder fires at Tintin, the shot misses him, but instead hits a tree branch. The tree branch is blown off, but the tree that the branch was hanging from has no visible damage. If the bullet had hit the branch and it flew off, there would still be a stump visible from where the branch had snapped off. If the bullet hit the tree and this caused the branch to fly away, there would be a visible bullet mark on the tree. Regardless, there is no way the tree would not have any visible damage done towards it. (00:30:00)

The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 2 - S1-E2

Trivia: There is a mistake pointing out that the newspaper at the end is a flipped shot. If you flip it the right way round, you will see on the right hand side of the article the word "Spielberg" on one of the lines, a reference to director Steven Spielberg. Steven Spielberg went on to direct the Tintin movie Secret of the Unicorn in 2011. (00:43:35)
