Trivia
About 1 hour and 44 minutes into the movie, we see Lord Kelvin in his office playing with the metal spring which we know as the Slinky. As he's playing with it he's humming the song "It's Slinky!" from the old Slinky television commercial.

With a box office loss of around $80 million, this film is considered the biggest independently released flop in film history (it was made by an independent group under Disney).

Goofs
At the beginning when Passepartout escapes the bank where he robbed the Buddha, he can be seen wearing a beard, but later, being chased by the police, he gets into a moving carriage, as he goes out of it, the beard is gone, which would be impossible given the short time that has passed and considering that it wasn't that easy to shave at the beginning of the century.

When Fogg and companions escape the gallery in France where they encountered the men searching for Passepartout and exit through the manhole to the balloon scene, the movie still clearly portrays them as being in France. However, the actual location of the Balloon scene and the palace in the background is Schloss Charlottenburg, a palace in Berlin, Germany.

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.

Q
Is this a faithful adaptation?
A
No. For the most part this is a film that draws loose inspiration from the Verne novel. A more faithful adaptation was made in 1956.To name a few specific and obvious changes from the novel:-In the film, Phileas Fog is an eccentric inventer who takes a bet for a position of auhority. In the book he was a recluse who spent most of his time playing cards and the bet was simply a sum of money.-Passpartout in the book was much more open with Fog. He was being honest when he said he was French, and there was no sub-plot about him taking advantage of Fog to achieve a hidden agenda. Also in the film he is responsible for the bank robbery, despite having nothing to do with it in the book.-While the bank robbery did happen in the book, it is given a larger role and serves as motivation for the characters. Lord Kelvin also pins it on Fog as an excuse to keep him from winning the bet. In the book, the robbery happened of-screen and had nothing to do the main characters. Inspector Fix only mistook Fog for the robber because his appearance matched the description he had been given of the actual criminal.-In the film, Inspector Fix is depicted as a dim-witted officer who is manipulated by Kelvin. In the book, he was much more reasonable, having mistaken Fog for the robber based on his appearance matching the description. He also eventually helps Fog and releases him when he realizes his mistake.-The love interest in the book was an Indian princess, not a French artist.
