Just recently I been watching an old classic Kung Fu movie call "The Master of the Flying Guillotine" One of the main stars of the film is Jimmy Wang Yu, and I think he knows QT. Well, anyways I was thinking that's were originally the idea of Gogo's weapon came from. Both weapons are fairly similar but not identical. Here take a look and judge for yourself:
