Line 17:
* [[Car Chase]]: The chase scene between [[Van in Black|Neolite Range Rovers]] and the Hummers, shown in the cinemas and available as a deleted scene on DVD.
* [[Coincidental Broadcast]]: Used more judiciously than usual. There's an entire wall showing dozens of channels, which makes it easier to accept if at least one of the channels is showing something relevant.
* [[Convection, Schmonvection]]: In slow motion, during the New York shoot out, Aurora and Sister Rebekah have a missile pass ''not more than a foot'' in front of their faces. This should not be pleasant.
* [[Cool Car]]: Gorsky's armoured personnel carrier with luxurious interior and all-round plasma screen 'windows' showing thermal images of what's outside.
* [[Corrupt Church]]: The Neolites, a combination of New Age cult and high-tech corporate money-making machine.
Line 31:
* [[Fridge Logic]]: {{spoiler|Toorop wouldn't have time to die from a shot to the heart (it takes at least ten seconds) before the missile struck; the tracker would still have been working.}}
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: In the backstory; amoral scientist Dr Darquandier after he found himself thinking of Aurora as a daughter rather than an experiment.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: The amoral scientist is [[The Matrix Reloaded|the Merovingian]].
* [[The Ingenue]]: Aurora in the movie, but averted with Marie Zorn in the novel: a schizophrenic prostitute who was simply meant to be a courier for the babies. Unfortunately for the Neolites her [[Mysterious Past]] starts to complicate things.
* [[Kick the Dog]]: The High Priestess destroys the convent where Aurora was brought up in with a missile strike, presumably to remove evidence of her past that would obscure her status as a modern Virgin Mary.
