* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The scorpion Momon uses to cut her hair has only six legs when as an arachnid it should have eight (the pincers are actually mouthparts). This especially jarring for the same movie which points out that arachnids are distinct from bugs or insects by having eight legs, not six.

* DistractedByTheSexy: In a scene one orc-thing climbing a ladder while assaulting Wipe Castle catches sight of Gynecaladriel (Amy) taking off her top through a window. Cue abundant drooling, which happens to be acidic and burns through the ladder's steps, sending him falling.

* {{Arrowgram}}: Played for two consecutive gags: as the siege against Wipe Castle begins, an onlooking centaur fires an arrow to an outpost on a distant hill, where an offscreen messenger fires ''another'' arrow to another hill, and repeating for a few turns, even as one of them [[AnnoyingArrows gets audibly hit and makes an "agh!" sound]]. Eventually, an arrow reaches the main destination at the home of the centaurs, where they have prepared an arrangements of targets marked with emergency notices: "Flood", "Fire", "Economic Downturn", [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking "Celebrity Breakup"]] (and that one has ''much'' more arrow marks than the rest), and the final one the arrow hits: "War".

She also apparently flipped a coin at Igner's birth on whether to keep him or the afterbirth, and had no problem telling people this at Igner's graduation.

Zoidberg isn't any dumber here than he is in other episodes, at least not with these two examples.


* TookALevelInDumbass: Zoidberg has never exactly been a staggering example of intelligence to begin with, but he's ''amazingly'' stupid and irritating in this film, trying to cut Leela's head open to get her skull out, and using a fork to clean himself of parasites at the dinner table.
