* ArtisticLicensePaleontology: At the beginning, Yor kills a triceratops, [[AscendedToCarnivorism a well-known herbivore that's trying to eat people]], although we now know it did indulge in carnivorous behaviour once in a while. How the heck a [[spoiler:Triceratops]] is around [[spoiler:in the future, after a nuclear war,]] is left to the watcher to explain.

Added DiffLines:

* WhateverSaurus: At the beginning, Yor fights a creature that could probably best be described as a "Stegoceratops". Averted with the thing he fights in the seaside cave, which looks more specifically like a ''Dimetrodon''.

* HappilyMarried: In the four-hour Italian version, Yor and Kalaa get married right before the laser attack. At this point in the story, they definitely love each other.

Cavemen is a disambig, and it's not immediately clear if it fits under anything else. Deleting.


* {{Cavemen}}: Yor, and the vast majority of humans and humanoids he encounters, have a Stone Age level of technology and act like stereotypical cavemen -- bearded, grunting, dressed in furs, armed with clubs and spears...

Added DiffLines:

* NeverTrustATitle: As has been pointed out by many, Yor isn't really from the future. At most, he's ''in'' our planet's future (as are all the other characters in this story), but he never goes back in time.
