Corrected entry: Chow emails Alan to meet him at a bus stop in Tijuana. That's all the email says and they manage to get to the right bus stop. It would seem rather unlikely they would just happen to get the exact bus stop Chow was going to given the fact that there would have been loads of bus stops in Tijuana anyway. (00:27:30 - 00:29:55)

Casual Person

Correction: Phil announces that the email tells Alan to meet Chow at a bus stop in Tijuana, but he does not read out the entire email word for word. The email could have also contained more specific directions which he simply did not bother to read out at that point.

Corrected entry: At Alan's dad's funeral, when Alan takes a picture of himself in front of his dad's portrait with his camera phone, the phone's camera is facing away from him. This is corroborated further when he takes a picture later in the film with the same phone of Phil climbing down to the balcony of Chow's suite at Caesar's Palace. The phone's camera is now correctly facing towards Phil. (00:09:25 - 01:10:15)

Neo X

Correction: A good number of phones have dual cameras, where you can switch back and forth from a front facing camera to a rear facing one so that you can always see the screen. One for self pictures, such as when he take a picture of himself posing with his father's picture, and one for taking a picture of Stu on the balcony.

Tango

Corrected entry: When Stu is in the drug store getting Demerol, he has a blue shirt on. When he gets back in the mini van, he has on a pink shirt.

Correction: It's pink the whole time.

Factual error: Chow is carrying around $21 million in gold bullion. A bar weighs 400 ounces. Gold prices at that time were around $1,200 per ounce, and he's got two bags, therefore he's supposedly carrying 8,750 troy ounces, or about 600lb/270kg, on each arm. (00:46:20)

Suggested correction: Chow was carrying half the gold and bars were easy to carry in bags weighing 250 lbs each bag and had the rest elsewhere.and together he had 5 bags total at end so 1250 lbs x 16 oz is 20,000.oz so 1250 bucks per oz. X 20,000 equals 25 million and chow had more strength due to all drugs in his system made him stronger and pain free.

Even if he only had 2/5 bags and the 5 bags total weighed 600lb / 270kg, that still means one bag would weigh about 108kg / 240lb, which is too much for an average person to carry one handed, drugged-up or not.

Alan: We can't be friends anymore. When we get together, bad things happen and people get hurt.
Mr. Chow: Yeah, but that's the point! It's funny!

More quotes from The Hangover Part III

Question: Isn't the plot inherently flawed? Chow was already in Las Vegas, so there's no real correlation between him and the main characters, so he would've stolen Marshall's gold, whether or not he met them right?

Answer: Not necessarily. Keep in mind, before that, Chow didn't have any prior relations to Marshall, but after they showed up, he did, when he kidnapped B. Doug, who works for Marshall. It would make sense that Marshall would then be angry at Chow, and prompt the latter to steal his gold.
