Removed reference to Tekken in Pop culture

No source was provided. A search revealed no such mention from Namco. Dragon ball and Street Fighter can be said to be borrowing from the movie as well, however that may be pure coincidence unless directly stated by their respective creators. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.141.89.251 (talk) 05:05, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The song "The Glow" is referenced in an episode of South Park titled "Butt-Out". One member of the anti-smoking campaign representatives, Randy, sings several lines that are similar and use the same beat. - Remove as "vaguely similar does not equal a reference", why do people insist on reading so much into southpark episodes? --Dirty great green murloc (talk) 22:38, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Glow from that guy in the film is mentioned on cobra starship's sonsg pete wentz is the only reason we are famouse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.222.117.73 (talk) 18:40, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removed label as "black film"

"White" films don't receive such labels, and neither should "black" films. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tdub85 (talk • contribs) 21:51, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again

The Last Dragon takes cues from blaxploitation, writer Venosta admitted his intention: “There really should be a young black kid superhero-type figure who kids can look up to.”^[1]

Not a WP:RS to push this POV in the lede. Are there better sources? Leaving here per WP:PRESERVE. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 19:20, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Removed shooting section

I removed the paragraph about the shooting. People that visit this article want to learn about the movie, not a criminal that may have once scribbled a note about it. Superm401 - Talk 06:32, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
