I'm curious to who knew this: The yellow suit Uma wears in Kill Bill is the same outfit Bruce Lee wore in his final movie. I believe QT did this in tribute to Bruce Lee.

um............yeah..........it's his suit from Game of Death.
However, Bruce Lee is barely in the film (because he was dead)......it's a double 95% of the time. Bruce had only shot a couple of scenes. Enter the Dragon was the last real Bruce Lee film.........he died about 3 weeks before it was released.

QT is paying homeage to Bruce Lee. Some Martials Artist have paid sometype of Homeage to Bruce in different ways. For example Jet Li wore a similar yellow suit in Meltdown. I think that Jackie Chan did the same in another movie (can't remenber right now) but is very cool of QT to do that for the Bruce.

I forgot to mention also that the Kato masks also symbolize a tribute to Bruce. I don't know if you have heard of the Green Hornet TV series of the 1960's but Bruce Lee was on that series and he play the part of Kato. So once again QT with his twisted humor made a fight between two different Bruce Characters in Kill Bill.
The Yellow biker suit from the Game of Death vs. the Kato masks of the Green Hornet. I can see the Bruce Lee pun quite clear
I knew that. But I read a magazine in which all the references were listed
