Chuck amusement

So there I was watching Chuck last night (a show I continue to love a lot!) and had to laugh out loud at a blink-and-you-miss-it homage to one of my all-time favorite cheesy movies.

The Triad bad-guy in the wheelchair was played by veteran actor James Hong, and his character's name was LoPan. The same name as the Big Bad in Big Trouble in Little China. Heee!

I totally missed that last night! I love Big Trouble In Little China, and I recognized the actor, but I didn't hear the character name. Ben Lo Pan instead of David Lo Pan. That would be one helluva crossover! Half the fun in Chuck is all the geeky injokes and references they've been making.

It would be a great crossover, wouldn't it? I kept waiting for the lightning to start flying. :-) Ben must be David's twin brother. ;D I do love all the geekitude in Chuck. Those are my people!

I love all the shoutouts they do! It's a wonderful show.
