I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry Arnie stays in the bathtub all night with out being noticed, which would be impossible because at least SOMEONE had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and they would've noticed him. [What makes you so sure that someone absolutely had to have used the bathroom at night? There were four of us living in the same house and there were plenty of nights when no-one would feel the need. This entry is based on an assumption, nothing more.]
Entry When Gilbert is telling about the family and Endora at the beginning of the movie, he says that his father hung himself 17 years earlier. Yet, just seconds earlier he says he has a sister that has just turned 15. How did he father a child born two years after his death? There's no implication that she's a half-sister or adopted. [Later in the movie, the truth comes out as Gilbert tells his girlfriend that his father just walked out and never came back.]
Entry In the scene after Arnie has just climbed down the watertower for the first time and Gilbert is standing next to Arnie as they talk to the police. Arnie's hand is up near his face, then in the next shot it is down, then up again in the next. [Arnie is special. His hand is always near his face the whole movie.]
Entry Gilbert's hair keeps changing it's length and style. [Gilbert's hair does not change style. It stays thick and straight the whole time. He is getting older so of course his hair will grow.]
