* ArcFatigue: The first several chapters are just Axel and the Professor's journey from Germany to Iceland. They can be skipped without missing anything. These chapters are boring enough in the original, but in [[CutAndPasteTranslation the most well-known English translation]], they become downright unbearable.

** One of the English translations of the book added a dream sequence where Axel (or "Harry", as he is renamed) witnesses a battle between a giant ape and crocodile and is then attacked by the ape before waking up. It's a completely pointless scene that only succeeds in making the reader further lament that the story doesn't feature more prehistoric creatures.

* FridgeLogic: The 2012 film is jam packed with the stuff. Between the fact that there's apparently a category 5 hurricane just hanging around somewhere off the coast of Palau (and nobody on the island seems to care too much about that,) and the fact that there's all sorts of satellites overhead that might be interested in taking a look at what's going on in there, it doesn't seem like the Mysterious Island would stay mysterious for all that long, would it? Oh, and you'd also think one or two of those satellites would be equipped with spectrometers that might take notice of a giant gold-spewing volcano...
