Movie Goof (factual errors): In ancient China, oracle bones were turtle shells that were heated during divination, the cracks that appeared across Chinese characters written on the shells were then interpreted to foretell the future.
Movie Goof (anachronisms): At the beginning of the movie, the Dragon Emperor is shown planning his campaign on a model of China which has the Great Wall portrayed on it, even though the Dragon Emperor himself built the wall AFTER the campaign.
The crossbow traps in the tomb scene are based in reality. According to Chinese archaeologists, the excavation of the Terracotta Army is progressing so slowly partly because the site is filled with similar traps.
After the emperor has been awakened, the heroes ride in a cart containing fireworks. The box has "Tse Kar Wai" written on it. This is an alternate name for Doris Tse, a co-producer on the film.
