Journey to the Center to the Earth Movie Goofs

  1. After falling down a huge tunnel filled with water, despite being soaked to the skin, Trevor’s version of his “Journey to the center of the Earth” book is completely undamaged. Even his brother’s notes survive.
  2. A rock wall contains raw diamonds, rubies, and emeralds. The diamonds are clear and already cut. They should look like dull yellow pebbles.
  3. The mountain guide wears skin-tight jeans, which no professional guide or capable climber would do. Denim is strong and resists abrasion, but tight-fitting clothes don’t retain heat well and restrict movement.
  4. A steam geyser capable of lifting a boat with 3 passengers several hundred meters would scald the passengers to death.
  5. As Trevor is looking through the book in his flat, as the shot jumps from in front of him to the over-the-shoulder view, he is reading a different page in each shot.
  6. In the scene where the explorers end their exciting ‘ride’ in the mine, Hannah rolls over and has a loop of the rope over her right breast. Seconds later, the rope is gone.
  7. The sweat on Trevor’s, Sean’s, and Hannah shirt, from the giant mushrooms and up to the “sunset” scene on the beach, keeps disappearing and reappearing.
  8. In the scene where Sean is laying on the “beach” after being carried across the ocean by the kite, when he is laying down, he is shown to have gloves on. In the next shot, as he is standing up, the gloves are gone. In the next shot, he is taking the gloves off and in the next shot, they have disappeared again as he begins to follow the bird.
  9. When Trevor Anderson looks at the book in his flat, the front cover reads Journey to the Center of the Earth. Moments later, as he is flicking through the same book, the page headings read Journey to the Centre of the Earth.
  10. Twice, the explorers run across veins of free metallic magnesium in the ground. Magnesium is extremely active chemically, and is only found in compounds.
