1* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The Japanese slave driver.
2** According to Creator/TerryJones on the commentary, the film had lots of different backers, each with a wish list (the Germans insisted on the casting of Creator/JohnCleese, for example) and the Japanese investors insisted he cast Tsutomu Sekine, who was a famous Japanese TV star.
3* TheyChangedItNowItSucks A lot of fans were not pleased with the re-edit of the film, citing either technical errors such as missing dialogue during one shot where the characters' lips are clearly shown to be moving, or the fact that it was shortened rather than extended. Of course, the latter was ''the point'' of the re-edit, as Jones felt that the movie was too long (not that you would know that from looking at the case in the store).
4* TearJerker:
5** Snorri being [[spoiler: murdered by Loki]]. Even [[EveryoneHasStandards Keitel]] (who'd been working with Loki up to that point) seemed shocked and horrified at the act.
