## Goofs

* The main intro and the Island of Sodor intro are using animaton from Nitrogen Studios. But, for the rest of the movie, it is using animation from Jam Filled Toronto.
* The scene in where Po uses her karate moves to hit the giant rock, she hits it very hard and succeeds with the rocks blocking the cave exit. But, in reality, she wouldn't be able to do it.
* The Other Side by Jason Derulo is shown in the credits when it actually wasn't heard in the film. The issue was corrected in the bonus features.
* A faint crack is seen when the scene cuts to the MerseyGirls being sad.
