Other mistake: After Charlie and Brian steal the Triad's money, a chase scene breaks out involving yelling, gunfire, and an exploding car. However, after Charlie and Brian run out of gas in the Toyota, there are instances of people walking around in the background as if nothing is happening. One person is carrying groceries while another calmly walks through a parking lot.
Brian Hope: Look Charlie, some con men sell life insurance. The church sells afterlife insurance. It's brilliant! Everyone thinks you might need it, and no-one can prove you don't.
Charlie McManus: The church isn't selling anything, Brian.
Brian Hope: Oh! Well, if the church isn't selling anything how did it get to be so rich? Just remember, wherever there's a deep human need there's money to be made.
Charlie McManus: You think so?
Brian Hope: Of course, look at Kentucky Fried Chicken.
