Line 51:
** In the UK, Jason Connery gets a much higher billing.
** The young Charlie Chaplin is really [[Kick-Ass (film)|kickass.]]
* [[Hilarious Outtakes]]: As the credits roll, just like in ''[[Rush Hour]]'' (but actually a [[Call Back]] to Jackie Chan's HongkongHong Kong movies, with outtakes of [[Written in-In Infirmity|a more painful variety]])
* [[Historical In-Joke]]: WAY too many to list here. We start with ''Charlie Chaplin'' tagging with the heroes, who get him into the film business.
* [[Historical Person Punchline]]: That kid who's been hanging around all movie? His name's [[Charlie Chaplin]].
** And the bumbling Inspector who always wished to be a author? {{spoiler|[[Sherlock Holmes|Arthur Conan Doyle]]}}.
* [[Horsing Around]]: The palomino ridden by Chon Wang has a mind of its own and rarely responds to his wishes unless it wants to.
* [[I Have No Son]]: At the start of the second movie, Chon's father has disowned him for abandoning the family for America. Chon does not take this very well when Lin informs him of this, especially since {{spoiler|his father said it shortly before he was murdered by Rathbone.}} However, {{spoiler|Chon is given a puzzle box containing a message from his father that he was indeed proud of him.}}
* [[If You Ever Do Anything to Hurt Her...]]: In the second movie, while {{spoiler|being captured by Rathbone}}, after initially objecting to the idea of a relationship between his sister Lin and Roy, Chon accepts it, but adds, "Break her heart, I break your legs," to which Roy replies, "That's fair."
* [[Improvised Weapon]]: Chon Wang employs them in every fight scene.
