Line 27:
* [[Combat Pragmatist]]: Roper is caught in an armbar and instead of using a martial arts technique to get out of it, opts to simply bite his leg.
* [[Co-Dragons]]: Bolo and O'Hara.
* [[ColourColor-Coded for Your Convenience]]: In the final [[Battle Royale With Cheese]], all of Han's henchmen are dressed in white gi, while all of the shanghaied men are dressed in all-black attires.
* [[Conservation of Ninjitsu]]: Every hero (and even a villain in at least one scene) gets the chance to kick the crap out of 3-5 guys at once.
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: The fight between Lee and O'Hara. There's also Lee's fight with Mr. Han's minions in the drug factory; by the time Lee's captured, he's already mowed down dozens of them. An off-screen [[Curb Stomp Battle]] happened when some dumbass intruded on Bruce Lee's family area and scared his kids. [[Papa Wolf|Bruce Lee sent the guy to the hospital with one kick.]]
* [[Daddy's Little Villain]]: Although they are never actually seen in action, Han has trained his daughters to be his personal bodyguards on the theory that no one will be more loyal to him.
* [[Divide and Conquer]]: Averted. Han tries to force [[Let's You and Him Fight|Roper and Lee to fight]] to the death but they refuse. He sends Bolo in to do the job instead.
* [[Does Not Like Guns]]: Han does not allow guns on his island because he had a bad experience with them, it would make him too vulnerable to assassination and it would provide an easy pretext to outside forces to perform a raid.
Line 63:
* [[Shout-Out]]: One scene shows Lee dealing with an arrogant fellow contestant by suggesting that the boat was too cramped for a duel and that they should take one of the lifeboats to a nearby island. As soon as the other guy gets in, he kicks the lifeboat down and lets him get dragged. This is a direct reference to Tsukahara Bokuden, who is believed to have done the same thing once.
* [[Soul Brotha]]: Williams.
* [[Swiss Army Appendage]]: Han replaces his missing hand with various weapons throughout the movie.
* [[To Win Without Fighting]]: Lee described this as his style almost word-for-word.
* [[Tranquil Fury]]: Roper vs. Bolo
