* So, the Book of Peace protects the 12 Cities, right? It doesn't protect against Eris at all.
** FridgeBrilliance: The gods are no doubt far more powerful than the book.
*** That begs the question of what the other gods were doing while Eris was meddling in mortal affairs.
*** Well, the gods tend to go out of their way to AVOID Eris in the first place (Apple of Discord, anyone?) and then it's the fact that most of them don't get involved in human affairs unless it's related directly to their own interests. It could also be that they already knew what was bound to happen.
* As unabashedly pointed out by the filmmakers themselves in the DVD commentary, for something so important, it only has one soldier guarding it.

* Eris' pets are constellations, but if you pay attention, all of them are likely based on ''real'' constellations. Cetus shares its name with a constellation that contains Aquarius, Pisces and Eridanus, the Roc is likely based on Aquila, the eagle and among Eris' other pets include a scorpion (Scorpio), what appears to be a dragon (Draco) and possibly some sort of big cat (Leo).

* The famous ArabianNights character SinbadTheSailor is now a pirate? Pfft, what a trite marketing tactic for an adventure movie....based on a story where the "sailor" actually behaves as bad as or worse than the most sociopathic pirates of history, and not only [[KarmaHoudini gets no punishment]] but is [[DesignatedHero regarded as a hero for it]]....this movie is portraying Sinbad as exactly what he is in the original story, except in this version he's confronted about it and ends up changing his ways. And he's not quite as sociopathic as his original ArabianNights counterpart, since the original Sinbad would probably be past redemption in many viewers' eyes. (Can you imagine cartoon Brad Pitt Sinbad murdering a frail old man with a rock and robbing him?)

Also, removed the spoiler tag, as the fact is incredibly obvious, especially from looking at the secondary bullet below it. Hell, this plot point even appears on the main page synopsis, for crying out loud.
