Continuity mistake: When the Once-ler is drifting down the river in his bed, he puts his foot in the water, which makes the bed turn. When he puts his foot back onto the bed, it is dry and so is the bed sheet.

The Lorax (2012)
Directed by: Chris Renaud, Kyle Balda
Starring: Danny DeVito, Ed Helms, Taylor Swift, Zac Efron
Continuity mistake: When Ted visits the Once-ler for the second time and dives to the ground to avoid being launched by the sledgehammer as happened the first time, he stands up and his goggles are around his neck but hanging behind him. The scene then switches to the Once-ler and then back to Ted, and his goggles are still around his neck but now hanging in front of him.
Continuity mistake: When Ted is playing a board game with his family, his grandmother's letters in her tray change without her touching them. We first see them from her perspective as "LORXBR-". The last one is cut off, but you can see that there is a letter ball there. Two shots later, the O is missing. She now has "L_RXBRA". The grandmother and the letters are visible in each shot, so she cannot have picked it up without us seeing.
Trivia: When Ted opens a drawer looking for a nail for the Once-ler, a Minion figurine (from Despicable Me) is shown in the drawer.
Trivia: The song 'How Bad can I be?' is perfectly synced with YouTube's 5-second skip with the left and right arrow keys. Watch the song on YouTube and press the right arrow key to skip perfectly from 'bad' to 'bad'.
Once-ler: Whoa, whoa, whoa! You wouldn't hit a woman.
The Lorax: Hoo! That's a woman?
Once-ler: So you want to know what happened to the trees? I didn't think anybody still cared!
Ted: Well, that's me! The guy who still cares!
Ted: The last seed?
Once-ler: It's not about what it is. It's about what it can become.
