Question: When Lightning is crushed by the statue at the end of the movie, he sends out dozens of bolts of energy before he dies. The final wisp of electricity forms a Chinese character. Does anyone know what it means?
Question: Why didn't Jack and Wang run to Jack's truck instead of the basement in the alley after the gang fight?
Answer: Because the battle between the Chang Sing and Wing Kong was between them and the truck.
Continuity mistake: Toward the end of the film, when the creature captures Gracie, he jumps through a hole in the floor with her on his back. As he falls through the hole, his feet fall out in front of him and he is shown almost prone. Yet when the shot changes he lands firmly on his feet.
Suggested correction: It was a long enough drop for the beast to adjust itself to land on its feet.
Jack Burton: Ok, you people! Sit tight, hold the fort and keep the home fires burning. And if we're not back by dawn... Call the president.
Trivia: Even though Kim Cattrall and Suzee Pai portray characters with green eyes, both actresses actually have brown eyes in real-life. Both had to wear green contacts for the film.
