Reign of Fire

Character mistake: After the male dragon has swooped by and destroyed Van Zan's convoy, there is a scene of Alex running through the fire up to him sitting there. After she asks "Where are the soldiers?", the subtitles for the DVD show the lines being spoken "One Pass. He flew over just once." while Van Zan is opening his hand up in a close up to let go of some ash. However nobody is actually saying these words. Turn the volume all the way up, and there is still nobody actually saying this. It's as if these lines were removed without the person in charge of the subtitles being told. Or were removed after he finished the subtitles. (01:11:27)

Quantom X

Character mistake: When newspapers are flashed on screen to demonstrate how the dragons have destroyed the countries, one of the headlines reads "Europes' capital cities in ruins." It should read "Europe's capital cities in ruins."

Plot hole: The Americans allegedly landed at Manchester on their way to kill the male Dragon in London. London is due south of Manchester. Why then did they head in the complete opposite direction to Northumberland?

Denton Van Zan: Coffeyville. It's etched in American history because the outlaw Dalton boys were killed there. Ordinary townsfolk rose up and took 'em down.
Quinn Abercromby: Maybe you're the Dalton boys.
Denton Van Zan: No, no... We're the townsfolk.

Trivia: In the fight scene between Christian and Matthew, Christian really was head-butted and apparently had a lump the size of an egg on his forehead for some time afterwards - notice how his hair is more down over his forehead in some scenes than others to hide the lump.
