Trivia:
Tupac Shakur got the role of "Bishop" over Anthony "Treach" Criss, who has a cameo as a member of Radames' gang. Shakur nailed the role when he threw a chair during his audition.

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: When Q fights Bishop at the end, it's obvious he's wearing knee pads. Both when he emerges from the ladder and during the fight.

Crew or equipment visible: When bishop is ranting and raving after the shoot-out he is holding the gun in his hand and has the same gun in his waistband.
