* FridgeHorror: If you’re in the military, you'd know that Popeye wouldn't get a hero's welcome upon returning to the US. He'd be court-martialed for dereliction of duty and endangering civilians because he abandoned his post.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** In the restaurant scene, the background music sounds rather similar to that played [[Film/StarWarsANewHope in a certain cantina]].
** Near the end, Popeye performs an attack that is startlingly similar to Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog's [[SpinAttack spin-dash move.]] Before that? Popeye performs a move similar to [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Zangief's Double Lariat.]]
