* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: Hung, president of the National Soccer League and manager of Team Evil, who ensures that all are [[Drugs Are Bad|drugged to maximum performance]].
* [[Deleted Scene]]: The Miramax American release deleted about 30 minutes worth of scenes from the original theatrical release, making the movie more confusing as a result. Fortunately, the DVD offers the option to see either the edited American dub or the original with English subtitles.
* [[Dragons Up the Yin-Yang]]: Mui traces a ''taijitu'' while making buns. This serves to set her apart as a [[Useful Notes/Taoism|Taoist]] Tai Chi practitioner, as opposed to the [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] Shaolin monks. She also speaks Mandarin. The whole thing is to pay tribute to all of China's religious and martial-arts traditions.
* [[Everybody Was Kung-Fu Fighting]]: Sing constantly points out a few people that would have less trouble with their lives if they just knew shaolin kung fu. {{spoiler|After defeating Team Evil, Sing and Mui were last seen walking amongst a crowd now [[Mundane Utility|using kung fu to solve mundane problems]]. In the English dub, the song that plays in the background is a cover of "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas}}.
* [[Everything's Better with Spinning]]: The more spinning before a strike, the more powerful it becomes. '''No exceptions.''' Team Evil's most powerful attack involves spinning the ball at preposterous speeds so that it absorbs a giant black dragon. How do you counteract such a spin-powered strike? MORE SPINNING.
