details

• Continuity: When the Buddha is returned to the shrine, joss sticks can be seen burning in front of it when it is viewed from behind. They disappear in shots from the side and front.
  
  
• Continuity: Passepartout gets only one hand dunked in green paint, however in the next shot, both of his hands are covered in green.
  
  
• Errors in geography: In the opening shot, Big Ben is shown on the south of the Thames, when it should be on the north.
  
  

• Revealing mistakes: When they are climbing out of the manhole in France, the manhole cover is clearly not cast iron as it moves with ease when Fogg bumps against it.
  
  
• Revealing mistakes: When Passepartout and Inspector Fix are being attacked by the Chained Agent in India, one of the shots show the agent bursting through a wall. The remains of the wall are clearly not clay or sandstone, but instead something along the lines of plasterboard or cardboard.
  
  
• Factual errors: During the Chinese village scene, the drunken grandmother continually toasts "Kampai". This is actually a Japanese word meaning "(Here's to) Empty Glasses".
