There is a hilarious pseudo plot hole in this movie. The evil sorcerer Lo Pan needs a green eyed woman to complete his evil ritual and he keeps sending his goons to China to seek one out for said ritual. He captures the Chinese Miao and later the European Gracie who both have green eyes. This results in him choosing to sacrifice Gracie and keep Miao which means that the sacrifice didn't need to be Chinese. Green eyes make up two percent of the global population and women make up half so one percent of all people on Earth are green eyed women. One would not be hard to find in a city the size of 1980s San Francisco.
It seems from the amassed fortune that Lo Pan has been playing the part of a business man and triad boss for the better part of a century and in that time not one of his subordinates have taken the initiative to ask if the green eyed woman has to come from China. The ladies had to survive the ritual of the burning sword but if Lo Pan were killing a few green eyed women every week in San Fransisco that would have been brought up by the reporter. He acts astounded when he sees Gracie. He actually doesn't know it's common!
I called this a pseudo plot hole because it's absurd to imagine that in his centuries of life Lo Pan would never learn that four percent of the USA population fit his initial criteria. That absurdity is very in keeping with the tone of the movie and with the shenanigans that happen to him and his organizations. He could have conquered the world a century ago with an ad in the paper.
