* [[Dead Guy, Junior]]: Not referring to one of the characters, but Isthmus City president Hector Lopez was played by Pedro Armendariz, Jr., whose father, Pedro Armendariz, Sr., played Kerim Bey in ''[[From Russia With Love (Film)|From Russia Withwith Love]]''.
* [[Hey, ItsIt's That Guy!]]: [[Law and Order|Jamie Ross]] used to be a CIA officer.
** One of Benicio del Toro's earliest roles.
** [[ThreesThree's Company|Nurse Terri Alden]] plays Mrs. Leiter.
** And [[The Goonies (Film)|Jake Fratelli]] is Sanchez?
** [[Die Hard (Film)|Johnson and Johnson]] are Sanchez and a CIA officer. In the same room at the same time!
** Sharky would later become [[Da Chief]] on [[Last Action Hero (Film)|two]] [[Loaded Weapon 1|different]] occasions.
** [[Mortal Kombat (Filmfilm)|Shang Tsung]] is an undercover narcotics cop.
*** And Kitana is Lupe Lamora.
* [[Michael Kamen]]: Wrote the score.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: In a weird example of this trope, actor John Terry, who had played Felix Leiter in the previous film was replaced by David Hedison - who had played Leiter all the way back in ''[[Live and Let Die (Filmfilm)|Live and Let Die]]''. It was felt that an actor who had previously played the role should be in this one, for a better emotional reaction to what happens to him.
* [[Playboy]]: The Chinese ninja woman who also appears during the opening credit sequence is [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0496729/bio Diana Lee Hsu], May 1988 Centerfold. She is part of a tradition of having an actress in a Bond movie to model in Playboy, although she's the first to have been a Centerfold before making the movie. Look for her in the opening credits.
* [[Reality Subtext]]: Kind of inverted when Sanchez's actor, Robert Davi was taken by a number of thugs while on vacation in South America to an actual drug lord. [[Misaimed Fandom|The man enjoyed his portrayal of a drug lord.]]
* [[Shout -Out]]: Bond is taken to ''Hemingway'' House to turn in his licence and his weapon. He comments that it's "a farewell to arms". Subtle...
* [[Throw It In]]: Robert Davi wrote Sanchez' line about "Loyalty is more important to me than money."
** Also the shot of Q throwing the rake-radio into the bushes was simply the actor putting it out of shot for the next scene, however the sight of Q abusing a gadget the way he always complains about Bond doing was [[Hypocritical Humor|too good to lose]].
