Cast:
Thoughts:
- Kenner, beating up five yakuza baddies while drinking his morning tea
- Johnny, the Asian Task Force cop ignorant of his Japanese heritage (er, everyone knows that Brandon Lee was actually half-Chinese, don't they? Bruce Lee was *really* popular in the US)
- Minaka's get-Dolph-Lundgren-into-bed line: "Do you hog the sheets?" "Brought my own!"
- Yoshida, covered with nifty yakuza tattoos. Check out the scene where he haughtily rejects the sacrificial pinkie...
