Darker and Edgier: In this version, Dalton isn't The Ace nor a legendary bouncer with a sweet ride and a head full of Eastern wisdom. Instead, he's a broke loser who killed a man in the ring and has been haunted ever since. | |

Minion with an F in Evil | |
| Road House (2024) / int_35f57671 | comment |
Minion with an F in Evil: Moe only fights Dalton because it is expected of him as part of Dell's gang. Afterwards it is pretty clear that he would rather hang out with Dalton than fight him. He even lampshades the fact that he only joined the gang because he likes to ride motorcycles and has no interest in the violence and other criminal activities. | |

Combat Pragmatist | |
| Road House (2024) / int_49fb5ccb | comment |
Combat Pragmatist: Dalton is a very efficient fighter but he also knows how to put on a good show when the opposition is lackluster and he is trying to send a message. He is deliberately flashy with Dell and his gang because he needs to establish that he is not to be trifled with and that the Road House is off-limits to troublemakers. When he gets serious, he disables opponents in quick painful ways that remove them as a threat immediately. | |

In their first encounter, Dalton breaks his arm; he still notes to his boss how friendly Dalton was, and next time they run into one another in a fight, he seems genuinely happy to see Dalton. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Dalton is introduced as next in line to fight someone who's in a big winning streak on an underground fighting ring. The dude sees Dalton, recognizes him, and then just leaves. Knox is introduced jumping out of a married woman's balcony somewhere in Italy buck naked and proceeds to take a call while casually strolling in his birthday suit to a nearby fair, where he headbutts a man for his suit jacket and proceeds to light the stand on fire after. Then he just leaves. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Road House (2024) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The opening scene introducing Dalton plays as an homage to Wolverine's introduction in X-Men, but zigs every time X-Men zagged — Dalton is the challenger, not the guy with the string of wins; the "challenge" fight never happens; the guy who gets angry afterwards and comes at Dalton with a knife does actually stab him, but Dalton talks him down instead of terrorising him the way Wolverine did; and after Dalton rejects Frankie's overtures, she leaves instead of sticking around like Rogue did. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: At the first underground fight, we're introduced to Carter (played by Post Malone), the reigning champion who has knocked out multiple opponents in quick succession. The moment Dalton steps up, Carter immediately recognizes him and hurries out out of the ring. Moe the friendly mook decides to skip town once Dalton really starts murdering people. | |

Product Placement | |
| Road House (2024) / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Dalton is an ex-Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter. There is plenty of UFC branding throughout the footage we see of his career. This is particularly strange considering that we see Dalton kill someone in the Octagon, something the UFC touts itself for having never let occur. | |

Drives Like Crazy | |
| Road House (2024) / int_f96f188c | comment |
Drives Like Crazy: Knox constantly speeds and sometimes crashes into things and even crashes into the eponymous Road House. Dalton lampshades his driving at one point. | |

Running Gag: The hospital is just 25 minutes away. Knox keeps stealing cars to drive and crashing them instead of parking them. | |

Comically Missing the Point: When Knox tauntingly notes the raft they are about to fight is their own little octagon, Dalton questions who taught him shapes. | |

Shown Their Work: Frankie says that her bar on Glass Key was once a favorite of Ernest Hemingway. Later, Dalton says he's learned about Glass Key's population of six-toed cats. In real life, Hemingway's house on Key West is home to a large population of polydactyl cats. | |

Death Seeker: Dalton doesn't react in fear when he's stabbed in the beginning of the film. In the next scene, he almost commits suicide but changes his mind at the last second. | |
