== Trivia ==
*[[Snowball II]] doesn't appear during the movie.

*Ned refers to wetting oneself as "praying through the knees".
*[[Dr. Nick Riviera]] is killed by a giant piece of the dome's glass, yet in the season 20 episode "[[Lost Verizon]]" he is seen alive.
*Bart's penis is briefly shown to the viewers during his nude ride to [[Krusty Burger]], but up till then and after that it is blocked out.

*Bart comes into the bedroom pointing to the TV saying "Have you seen that?", meaning that their must have been another TV in the cabin.
*Marge hasn't looked around properly yet when she asks Bart if he's drinking whisky.
*In an overhead view of the people in The [[First Church of Springfield]], Sherri, Terri, somebody and their mother can be seen. This "somebody" could be Sherri and Terri's father, but as their father's appearance changes a lot, and many of the characters are in a random order, it coud be someone else.

== Goofs ==
[[File:Movie House Goof.png|250px|right|thumb|The house is not on fire.]]
*Moe's Tavern says Moe's Bar instead of Moe's Tavern.
**He could have changed the sign.
*[[Willie]] is drawn with brown hair instead of red and it is not red until the end of the movie.
*When Homer is removing the six husky dogs harnesses only four harnesses have been removed but in the next scene all the dogs harnesses are off.
*The crack in the dome made by the elephant was gone in the next shot.
*In one shot of the church, Comic Book Guy is not recording Grampa.
*When Homer was taking his hand off his crotch his pants rip, but in the next shot his pants are normal.
**Also his hand should have been glued to his other hand.
*When Moe is Nayah Nayah Nayahing the part of his body visible looks like Otto's.
*When Homer's motorcycle lands on to the ground he is on a lawn, but in the next shot they are on a cliff instead of a lawn.
*Dr. Nick Riviera dies in the movie but returns in "[[Lost Verizon]]" somehow.
**However, this could be a joke.
*For some reason [[Plopper]] is not seen at the end of the movie, though he does appear in a deleted scene.
*When [[Bart]] tumbles down the roof, his shirt color is light pink.
*When Homer and Bart are jumping Springfield Gorge, they are shown with varying chances of making it, with one shot actually predicting them making the jump.
**Similar things like this happen throughout the movie.
*During the town meeting held by Lisa people constantly change places.
*When Homer is going past the people on a motorbike to pick up [[Marge]], [[Comic Book Guy]] appears twice in the crowd.
*When [[Bart]] is chained to the lampost a blade of grass appears out of nowhere.
*When Homer and Bart were heading for the Springfield sign, the P was straight, then the P is curved and the motorbike is used to ramp itself into the air.
*Marge runs out of the house with her hair on fire, because the house is on fire, but when the family is in the car and being carried off by the crowd, the house is not on fire.
*[[740 Evergreen Terrace]] is next to the Flanders house, not the Simpsons house. Also, another version of the house appears in its place.
*When [[Comic Book Guy]] used his cell phone in church it has no symbols or numbers, whereas it has when he visits the Simpsons home.
*In the video of Homer and Marge's wedding day, other members of the Simpson family are present at the wedding. This conflicts with the events of "[[I Married Marge]]", in which it is revealed they got married at [[Shotgun Pete's]] with no family members present.
*[[Billie Joe Armstrong]] doesn't have tattoos on his arms in the movie - he does in real life.
*When the floating stage is sinking, the box from where [[Green Day]] were singing the Simpsons lyrics disappears, then it reappears, and in the next shot it disappears again.
*[[Dewey Largo]] appears 2 times while Bart is skateboarding to the [[Krusty Burger]], once at the start and the other at the end.
*While the [[bomb disarming robot]] is disarming the bomb, [[Chief Wiggum]] can be seen without damaged clothes, in a later shot they appear damaged.
*Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie Simpson take the train from Alaska to Seattle, Wash. (The train shown in Alaska is exactly the same one that arrives in Seattle.) This is not possible, because there is no rail link, (passenger or freight), between Alaska and Seattle.

== Continuity ==
