Goofs
After Dr. Schadenfreude tried to shoot Igor, and fell into the pool, as Igor trapped them inside with a spread sheet of some kind, Heidi let's them out. But if you look closely, Heidi isn't even touching the sheet. It's just hovering over her thumb, and under the other fingers.

In the scene where the King beats Igor up, he mentions he'll throw Igor down the recycling shoot, and use his hunch as a speed bump. When the King says "Speed bump", his mouth didn't match at all. This is because, according to the novelization, the original line was use his hunch as a "foot stool".

When Igor takes Eva to the "Brain Wash", she's put in carriage/booth #12. Brian/Brain gets his own brain cleaned in #04. However, both of these are not only next to each other, but by the end, they both appear to be getting out of the same carriage #04, next to #03.
