Continuity
In the scene where Percy creates Carl's Twitter account, they settle on the name @ChefCarlCasper. Yet Carl's very first tweet, which he thought was a private message to Ramsey Michel, was shown to have been posted by @CasperCarl. For the remainder of the movie, his Tweets correctly identified him as @ChefCarlCasper.
Trivia:
This film marks the first non-Iron Man collaboration between Robert Downey Jr and Jon Favreau.
