Goofs

When the bathtub falls through the floor, Walter is pouring water into it, but when the camera angle shifts to an upward shot from the floor below, no water is being poured.

When the bathtub falls, the chunk of floor it was sitting on, which also would have fallen, is nowhere to be seen.

When Walter is trapped in the carpet in the hole in the floor, his height level varies. Sometimes he's down to his shoulders, and other times he's trapped only to the level of his chest.

Initially, the front door swings into the house, and the doorknob is inside, and the handle is outside. They are on the left as viewed from outside the house. After the door and frame fall off the house, it is propped up in the doorway, but the door now swings outward, which it could do only if it were propped up backward, which it is not. The door handle is still outside, and the knob is inside, and they are still on the left when facing the house from outside.

When the raccoon scares Anna, she nearly walks off the second level after the stairs had just collapsed. Walter is hanging where the stairs were and says that Anna is standing on his fingers, but she is too far back for that. It's only in the following shot that her feet are overhanging the edge and on Walter's fingers.

After Walter and Anna have hauled two two-gallon buckets of water up the ladder and dumped them into the bathtub, Walter goes back downstairs and, after the kitchen fire, brings up the third recently heated on the stove. That is also dumped into the tub, causing the tub to crash through the floor and land below. As the camera angle picks up the tub falling through the floor and the ensuing crash and breakage, there is no water spray from the broken tub.

When Carlos says goodbye to Walter, Sr. and his Brazilian wife, he first says "Auf Wiedersehen!" (German), then tries to correct himself by saying "Hasta la vista." However, he still is using the wrong language, as "Hasta la vista" is Spanish, not Portuguese.

This can be explained by the fact that Carlos is from Paraguay, so Spanish would be his first language.

When Anna is leaving Max's house after spending the night, she grabs her stockings which are hanging from the fireplace. The stockings are obviously brand new, fresh out of the box.

When the lead Cheap Girl tells Walter they want to change their name, what is heard is "Meryl Streep", but his lips say something else (like "bulls**t"); the same for Walter when he tells him he's not changing their name. Perhaps another name was originally used and the producers didn't get the permission to use it.

Pushing the raccoon out of the dumbwaiter.

When Walter's lungs are compressed from falling into the hole with the carpet, trapping his arms, he is unable to shout out to Montgomery Schrapp. Next, when Anna is searching for him, he is able to shout to her: "Upstairs!"

When Walter is filling up the bathtub, he and Anna put the pots beside the bathtub, but Walter leaves them behind when he leaves to fetch more water.
