Line 30:
* [[Antagonist in Mourning]]: Bison really wishes that Guile was alive...so he can snap his spine.
{{quote|''"The road not taken..."''}}
* [[Art Imitates Art]]: Mr. Bison [[Rearing Horse]] painting is just ''Napoleon Crossing the Alps'' after a [http://www.cerumen.cl/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/tumblr_ly3dzy2wEr1qghhwyo1_500.jpg switcheroo]{{Dead link}}
* [[Banana Republic]]: Shadaloo.
** [[Holiday in Cambodia|Holiday in Shadaloo.]]
* [[Berserk Button]]: Openly [[You're Insane!|questioning M. Bison's sanity]] is definitely ''not'' recommended for anyone keen on staying alive and healthy. He plans to sic Blanka on the kidnapped AN workers simply because they called him "mad".
* [[Big Bad]]: M. Bison.
* [[Big Bad Wannabe]]: Bison is considered this in the grand picture. He barely controls a small piece of Indochina but talks big about taking over the world. The AN is dismissive of him and Sagat makes his minions pull out their guns when Bison pays him in Bison dollars, worthless pieces of paper that Bison plans to make it valuable by kidnapping [[Elizabeth II]], something anybody with some knowledge of the UK's safety protocols around her could tell you it's ridiculously far-fetched with his resources. This actually makes things difficult for Guile because only him and his soldiers take him seriously.
* [[Blunt Yes]]:
{{quote|'''Bison:''' You dare to interfere?
Line 108 ⟶ 109:
* [[Neck Lift]]: M. Bison does this to Dhalsim after Dhalsim makes the mistake of pressing Bison's [[Berserk Button]].
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: Charlie is mutated and tortured halfway into insanity because Guile decided to make it clear (in front of the ''psychotic dictator'') that he was friends with the leader of the Allied Nations forces.
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: Bison is clearly based of Benito Mussolini, with his mannerism and emphasis on strength as the basis for everything on a society. And just like Mussolini, he doesn't amount to much of a threat in geopolitical terms except of course to poor impoverished countries.
* [[No Pronunciation Guide]]: Ryu's name is incorrectly pronounced "Rayu". Ironically, Guile, who fails to pronounce every other word in the dictionary, is the only character capable of saying it right.
** Bison does too, but he screws up Zangief's name right before that.]]
* [[Non-Indicative Name]]: No actual street fighting takes place in the movie. In the one scene where it could have happened, Guile breaks things up before they can begin.
* [[Not Even Bothering with the Accent]]: Guile in the games is American. Guile in the movie is... a Belgian-American immigrant? Classic JCVD at work.
