There’s another mistake in Toy Story 2 that was actually left in on purpose In the opening scene where Buzz flies in to stop Zurg, he was supposed to fly around the (early version of the) canyon from A Bug’s Life. But by accident, a bunch of floating rocks were left suspended in midair. However, it was kept in the movie because when John Lassiter saw it, he was impressed by how it made it feel like a different planet

[@kalebwieland4938]

I honestly thought that's a good addition

[@jordancooney6817]

Then they went a step further and animated them.

[@brandonandrayven816]

"1 winner, 42 losers" is not a mistake. The Piston Cup is meant to be a reference to the NASCAR Cup Series, which still had a 43 car limit during 2006 when Cars came out.

[@59771006]

Really I’m from Australia and don’t really follow NASCAR so thanks for that fun fact

[@raventherogue]

They're calling out the fact that, despite McQueen saying there are 43 racers, there are only actually 36 cars on the track

[@DKrueger1994]

Yeah, around that time, there were 43 cars that would make up a NASCAR field. Now there's about 36 to 40 cars on the field due to the charter system.

[@AK.__]

That's right. Not all teams make to the field, and McQueen, being in the trailer, wasn't aware about this.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Pixar explained exactly why the line involving Nascar was included in the very beginning of the movie definitely for a fact. It definitely caught my attention the moment that I came across it somewhere online, not even trying to find it by the way. Their explanation tied in exactly to understanding the beginning of the movie at a much more better level of understanding prior to even reading it.

[@thegeekywitch]

There's something in A Bug's life that was missed. When Flik is leaving the colony, followed by two boys, the short one says "my dad thinks your going to die." Two mins later, the same ant tells his friend, "your dad's right, he's going to die."

Also in A Bug's Life, when the ants are agreeing to let Flik leave, Atta was supposed to say "He can't screw anything up." before it was changed to "mess up". If you watch closely, her lips still say "screw".

[@racheln.spaterost2709]

I think the "you've been jealous of my good looks since the fourth grade, pal" line was an exaggeration on Mike's part, to emphasize how long Sully has been jealous of Mike's good looks.

[@thomasm.longiii3752]

I guess people can rush through movies and never check the errors. However they never really bothered me. Especially when buzz used the d word, I never noticed it, which is great because it definitely because people never noticed it. My guess is for Russell, he must have hidden offscreen and went on the house without anyone noticing him. They still are great movies no matter what.

[@blueraccoon1088]

Can we excuse the early Pixar movies since they were in early cgi? Animation is not easy.

For Monster’s University I always just assumed that they have known each other since childhood but didn’t become friends until college

[@sneakypenguin2861]

That wouldnt explain why they introduce themselves at college and have no lines relating to having met since 4th grade (which was when Sully was apparently first jealous of Mike, according to Monster's Inc)

[@spicybeantofu]

Imagine people being this bored to notice this stuff. I've been there lol

[@jfilesgraphics]

I remember seeing the commentaries on stuff like this on The Incredibles.

[@whitehorsemilitia]

Alot of the times in animated movies when it comes to continuity issues is that every shot are rendered on different computers (render farming) as a means to render the movies out faster than doing on a separate computer. Because they're separate computers, there are duplicates of the scene files so you will sometimes get such errors in continuity Because of that. Either the scene in question was sent to each computer at different times before animations were finished or it's just a financial/time constraint reason.

[@Idontwantone950]

This video is so obnoxious. I was expecting actual mistakes, not a weird combo of minor inconsistencies you’d have to pause the movie to see, weird mistakes on your part, and actual plot devices. Sully’s fur IS still there. Not sure where they’re counting the cars but 43 applies to the number of entries and somebody might not have started and some might have pitted since we’re nitpicking. Russell isn’t on the porch so that the audience can be surprised like Carl is. Randall’s first name being up there was definitely on purpose, and I believe that’s to keep his name consistent throughout the film since it is a kids movie.

[@deionking3727]

[@jinwansur1640]

In the Pixar short George & A.J. it shows an angle clearly showing Russell underneath the porch. This could have been the fix for what was shown in the original movie. If you have not seen the short George & A.J. it is in the perspective of the shady oaks nurses who try to take Mr.Fredrickson away. They encounter other elderly people who got inspired to make their crafty escapes from Shady oaks.

[@kricxl1917]

Most obvious movie mistakes you never noticed: In Cars 2, you can obviously see the green car is driving at 123 miles per hour, which means the car should have obviously crossed the gap 0.0023 seconds earlier. I honnestly don't understand how no one noticed this.

[@x-venturegaming9951]

Buzz saying "Damn." Didn't affect me in any way.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Pixar definitely explained themselves exactly what happened with the cutscene that took place with the curse word being mentioned first and then being edited out later in post. It was talked about a way long time ago before they knew that eventually they might forget. They did eventually acknowledge later that they did not remember exactly what they said about it, and had to resort back to it to answer a question that someone had asked about it specifically.

[@abbynormal6966]

I believe there's room under the floor and especially under the porch for Russell to hide because later we are told by Dug "I hid under your porch because I love you." So there must be just enough safe room for a dog and a small boy. You don't need to see something to know it's there, you know like the whole moral of the story was.

You know, that scene where Buzz's lipsyncing didn't match up with "Blast" and instead it looks like it's saying "Damn" reminded me of the fact that when I was little, when Buzz yelled "MY SHIP!!!" when he saw his damaged "ship", I used to think he yelled, "OH SHIT!!!!"

If Russell was that desperate to live but we didn't see him, perhaps he was on the other side of the house and in order to get to the front he had to reach under the wooden siding of the house, grab it upside down and shimmy his way over to the front. That is a really talented kid.

Never noticed that about the Cars films. Those are my fave from Pixar and I have seen each one at least 800 times. I did notice however in Cruz's confrontation with Lightning...that the #20 which was painted on her left side, shows on her right. Pixar left its mistakes in thinking they could get away with it!

[@joshernsteen2066]

I believe that some of the scenes in the movies were made later on and then clipped together to make the cutscene make sense in the movie. Pixar maybe confirmed this was the case with Finding Dory involving the water fountain. They definitely explained already in advance what the cutscene was going to be in the movie already since maybe someone asked. I believe that they even stated that they are working on future cutscene ideas as they are currently developing the one that are working on in the current moment. I was definitely looking at this in more detail for some strange reason.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Someone from Pixar explained that what you mentioned was not a mistake in the movie. I definitely found out exactly why it was like that when I was digging up more information about the movie. They definitely mentioned that they were looking at the explanation when they were making the third movie around the time when they were designing the cutscenes for the movie.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Other animated series have done the same exact but it is significantly less noticeable unless you saw the full episode in its entireity. I think that Pixar explained that the other events leading up the next cutscene being shown in the movie were too slow place, and they worried thar people watching the movie would leave in the middle of it or something like that. They probably posted it somewhere online for people to watch later. I believe that they said that spent a long time making the content as well.

[@mikimadrigal7790]

“Russell appearing in Carl’s house after takeoff” in Up is not a mistake. Russell explains that he was hiding under the house’s porch.

[@jfilesgraphics]

I think there was one scene in The Incredibles at E's house when she put Bob's old suit in the receptacle. There was a comment made about it on one of the extra features on the DVD version, but I'm not sure what exact moment they were referring to.
